*Surface Water Management Rate Survey Results are In!
*Thank you to everyone who participated in the recent Surface Water Management (SWM [ https://www.kenmorewa.gov/government/departments/public-works/environmental-services/swm-utility-rates ]) Rate Survey! In total, we had 147 responses with 45 (30.6%) in favor of "Stay the Course", 22 (15.0%) in favor of "Moderate Pace", 27 (18.4%) in favor of "Rapid Progress", and 53 (36%) in favor of "Rapid Progress+".

*Background:*
Kenmore recently received the results of a SWM rate analysis to establish proposed SWM rates for residential and commercial property owners for 2024-2030. On September 18, 2023, the Kenmore City Council reviewed four SWM funding scenarios developed through the rate analysis, which provide options for how many SWM projects the City can fund and implement between 2024-2030. The City Council will reconvene on October 16, 2023 to determine which option to move forward with. 

Kenmore's Surface Water Management (SWM) program is responsible for managing all surface water functions in Kenmore, including flood prevention and management, water quality improvement, fish and wildlife habitat restoration, and more.
