There are two types of service charges: the flat rate and the sliding rate.

• The flat rate service charge of $130.00 a year applies to single-family homes and parcels with less than 10 percent impervious surface.

• The sliding rate service charge applies to all other properties in the service area. The sliding rate is calculated by measuring the amount of impervious surface on each parcel and multiplying the appropriate rate by total acreage.

Several special rate categories will automatically be assigned to those who qualify.

• An exemption for any home owned and occupied by a low-income senior citizen determined by the assessor to qualify under RCW 84.36.381.

• A discount for any parcel served by a city-approved retention/detention (R/D) facility maintained by the owner.

• A discount for any parcel (or part parcel) officially designated as open space.
