      Program: "Wheres the Funding Stream for Stormwater Management?
      Speakers: Carl Bouchard, Director, Stormwater Planning Division, Fairfax County DPWES
      Harry Glasgow and Sally Ormsby, Stormwater Advisory Committee members
      The financial need for Fairfax Countys Stormwater Management Program is estimated to be, at a minimum, $300 million. The last bond referendum to address capital needs was held in 1988. Since that time the General Fund has provided minimal funding to address inspections, enforcement and emergency situations only. The program is woefully short of necessary revenue to get the program on track. The County Executive included in his proposed FY 2006 budget one cent (app. $18 million) on the real estate tax rate for stormwater management. The Board of Supervisors appointed a Stormwater Advisory Committee to study and make recommendations on the advisability of instituting a utility fee to ensure a dedicated source of funding for the stormwater management program. The committees recommendations will be presented to the Board at its Environmental Committee meeting on March 28.
      Cost: Under $7.00. Pay the cashier as you arrive. If a senior, ask for the discount. No reservations are necessary.
