AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 9 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO THE DELETION OF FRONT FOOTAGE CALCULATION AS THE ONLY METHOD OF DETERMINING SEWER ASSESSMENTS.

This legislation eliminates front footage calculations as the sole method of collecting sewer assessments for county sewer users. It provides a broad list of possible methods of determining the amount of the sewer assessment for each property, including, but not limited to front footage, usage, fixtures, Equivalent Dwelling Units (EDUs) or other factors. The methods are the same as those currently in Chapter 67 of the Delaware Code for sewer charges.
