Stormwater Fee

A monthly stormwater fee will be assessed for all residential and non-residential properties in Davidson County with the exception of those in the six satellite cities. The fee will be based on the amount of impervious square footage on the property. The impact on the average residential bill will be $3.00. Read more about the stormwater rate structure.
