*Surface Water Management Rate Study Analysis - Share Your Opinion 
*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, and fish and wildlife habitat restoration, just to name a few. 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. "And now, the City Council would like to hear from you!" Please visit the brief online survey [ https://speakupkenmore.com/swm-rate-increase ] to read through the four scenarios and answer a short one question survey to let the City Council know your preferred option. The City Council will reconvene on October 16, 2023 to determine which option to move forward with.
