and/or tenant. In the event that the property
owner or tenant shall disagree, the property
owner's decision shall be final.
1. In the event that the proposed site is
on or abuts property owned by the city of
Edmonds, the applicant shall be required to
obtain the city's approval. Approvals relating
to park property shall be handled as a request
to let a concession under the terms of this
chapter. Request for sites abutting all other
public land owned by the city shall be for-
warded to the city council for their review and

shall be required to obtain approval from the
public entity that owns the property.
3. In the event that the site for which
approval is sought abuts vacant land, the appli-
cant shall make reasonable written attempts to
secure the approval of the property owner. If
the applicant is unable to do so, the city may
accept written proof of such attempts and issue
Edmonds City Code
a conditional permit. If a complaint is later
received from the owner of the land, the
license shall be revoked. The granting of such
a conditional license shall vest no right in the
applicant.
M. When locating within a parking lot of a
private location, the applicant shall:
1. Identify the location the mobile vend-
ing unit will be located and provide a circula-
tion plan. The location and circulation plan
shall require approval by the city traffic engi-
neer to ensure the vending unit will not inter-
fere in any way with vehicular or pedestrian
traffic or safety.
2. Demonstrate that the site will meet
the parking requirements of Chapter 17.50
ECDC excluding the parking space(s) occu-
pied by the mobile vending unit.

facilities charges.
A general facilities charge (GFC) (formerly
known as a "connection charge") shall be paid
by each new customer connecting to the city's
water or sewer system in accordance with the
following requirements:
A. Sewer System GFC. The sanitary sewer
GFC shall be paid by the applicant at the time
and according to the date of side sewer permit
issuance in an amount per equivalent residen-
tial unit (ERU) added as a result of the devel-
opment as set forth in the table below;
provided, that nonresidential building permit
and business license applicants shall pay sewer
system GFC when the proposed structure
and/or business activity would generate addi-
tional probable sewer usage.
2012 before 2012 effective 2014 and
effective date date forward 2013 beyond
Sewer GFC per ERU $730.00 $2,573.50 $3,495.25 $4,417.00
1. A single-family residential applicant
shall pay a GFC equal to one ERU per dwell-
ing unit.
2. A multifamily residential applicant
shall pay a GFC equal to 0.67 ERU per dwell-
ing unit.
3. Applicants for nonresidential devel-
opment shall pay a GFC equal to the ERU
determination that is made by the public works
director. This determination shall be made by
estimating the probable sewer usage of the
proposed development. In estimating the prob-
able sewer usage, the public works director
may consider, among other factors, the aver-
age winter water consumption for similar
(Revised 2/13) 7-12
existing development in the city. If the appli-
cant disagrees with the director's ERU deter-
mination, the applicant may submit additional
information and analysis from a qualified
engineer, with an additional $200.00 review
fee, in support of a request for an alternate
ERU determination. The director shall review
the request for an alternate ERU determination
and may accept the alternate calculation,
revise the earlier ERU determination based on
the new information, or uphold the earlier
ERU determination. Once the director has
made a final ERU determination, the applicant
Edmonds City Code
may pay the GFC under protest and appeal the
determination, along with the underlying per-
mit, to the hearing examiner.
7.30.036
B. Water System GFC. The water system
GFC shall be paid upon, and according to the
date of, application for water service, and
based upon the size of the meter to be installed,
as set forth in the table below:
C. No water connection charge shall be lev-
ied for connections to water mains installed
pursuant to Local Improvement District Nos.
115, 146 and 152 by properties which partici-
pated in the establishment of said local
improvement districts. [Ord. 3883 § 1 (Att. A),
2012; Ord. 3339 § 3, 2000].
7.30.036 Sewer special connection
districts.
A. A connection charge shall be paid by
each new customer connecting to the city's
sewer system within the following described
district(s). This special connection charge is
based upon the actual cost of constructing
improvements which relate directly and exclu-
sively to homes within the district(s) and
which are, because of the special nature of the
construction, separate and distinct from the
overall costs of the system paid by a customer
pursuant to ECC 7.30.035. These charges shall
be in addition to the charges paid by a new cus-
tomer pursuant to ECC 7.30.035 and do not
duplicate any costs contained in the underlying
sewer utility connection charge.

A. The following rates shall be charged on all billings with respect to the following customers
and/or service:
CATEGORY
EFFECTIVE DATE
1/1/2012
1/1/2013
Single-family residential and multifamily residential

$22.62
Monthly billing cycle
$10.47
$11.31
All other residential customers per ESU (monthly cycle)
$10.47
$11.31
B. An ESU is hereby defined to be the
impervious surface area estimated to contrib-
ute an amount of runoff which is approxi-
mately equal to that created by an average
single-family residential parcel. A single-fam-
ily residential parcel is one ESU. For all other
parcels, one ESU is equivalent to 3,000 square
feet of impervious surface area. [Ord. 3903 § 2,
2012; Ord. 3801 § 1, 2010; Ord. 3744 § 1,
2009; Ord. 3570 § 1, 2005; Ord. 3538 § 1,
2005; Ord. 3400 § 3, 2002; Ord. 3195 § 2,
1998].
7.50.060 Administrative rate adjustment.
The city's public works director is hereby
authorized to make adjustments to the city's
stormwater utility rates as provided in this
chapter in an amount up to 50 percent of the
rate set in the preceding section in accordance
with the following provisions:
A. Upon written application to the public
works director, a customer may request review
of the city's stormwater management utility
fee as applied to the specific developed prop-
erty to which the fee has been charged. The
applicant shall state the specific conditions
and/or facilities on the site which the applicant
feels warrants adjustment of the rate as applied
to the property.
B. On his own motion, the public works
director may initiate review of a stormwater
utility charge to any parcel.
C. The public works director shall have the
authority to increase or decrease rates up to 50
percent of the level set by the city council. The
sole criteria for adjusting the rate shall be a
determination that the physical characteristics
of the site and in particular the stormwater
detention, retention and/or treatment facilities
as installed thereon by the owners, or lack
thereof, have significantly increased the bur-
den which the property places upon the city's
stormwater utility (in the event of an increase)
or significantly decreased the burden (in the
event of a decrease) by providing additional
benefits over and above those which the aver-
age property places upon the utility through
on-site improvements including but not lim-
ited to on-site pollution control mechanisms or
technologies which relate to water quality and
the property's impact upon the city's stormwa-
ter management system. Factors personal to
the property owner, such as ability to pay, shall
not be considered.
D. The decision of the public works direc-
tor shall be in writing. It may be appealed to
the Edmonds city council for review. In that
review process the determination of the direc-
tor shall be given substantial weight and an
applicant for decrease shall have the burden of
proof. In the event the director has recom-
mended an increase, the city staff shall have
the burden of proof in the process. The deci-
sion of the Edmonds city council shall be final
and shall not be appealable. The city council
may either increase or decrease the rates
7-17 (Revised 2/13)
7.50.070
within 50 percent of that set or may elect, in its
sole discretion, to apply the rate as established
by ordinance if the city council determined
that such property does not differ substantially
from other similarly situated ratepayers and
their properties. [Ord. 3264 § 1, 1999].
7.50.070 Stormwater management system
general facilities charge.
A. In addition to any other charge pre-
scribed by this chapter, a stormwater manage-
ment system general facilities charge (GFC)
(formerly known as a development charge)
shall be paid by the applicant at the time and
according to the date of building permit issu-
ance in an amount per equivalent service unit
(ESU) added to or created by the development
as set forth in the table below; provided, that
stormwater permit applicants shall pay GFC at
the time and according to the date of stormwa-
ter permit issuance.
2012 before 2012 effective 2014 and
effective date date forward 2013 beyond
Storm GFC per ESU $428.00 $613.50 $706.25 $799.00
B. For the purposes of this section only, an
ESU is hereby defined to be the impervious
surface area estimated to contribute an amount
of runoff which is approximately equal to that
created by an average single-family residential
development. A single-family residential
development shall pay GFC equal to one ESU;
provided, that a single-family residential
development that includes 5,000 square feet of
new, replaced, or new plus replaced impervi-
ous surface area shall pay GFC pursuant to
subsection (C) of this section.
C. All development not meeting the criteria
in subsesction (B) of this section shall pay
GFC calculated according to a ratio of one
ESU per 3,000 square feet of new, replaced, or
new plus replaced impervious surface area.
