The 2022 Developer’s Roundtable, held on February 23, had a packed agenda.

The presentation began with the new rate structure, including the elimination of tap fees, introduction of new applications fees, and overview of our stormwater rates. The team highlighted available resources for developers to predict their stormwater costs, such as the credit manual and the fee finder interactive map. These resources can be found on our dedicated Stormwater Fee webpage.

The agenda moved on to our new permitting process in CityGrows, with clarifications on how projects in progress and new projects would be handled by staff.

We wrapped up with a discussion on how the fee changes and new permitting process affected updates to the Developer’s Manual. This manual is our guide on the procedures and regulations for developments tapping into a new and existing public sewer or water facilities, and for constructing new facilities to be dedicated to PWSA. The updates are pending Board of Director’s approval and will be posted to our Developer’s Manual website once it is finalized.

We want to thank all of our participants for their contributions to this lively conversation. A recording of the event is available upon request.
Any remaining questions or comments can be emailed to our Development Coordinator, Jordan Treaster (JTreaster@pgh2o.com).
