Forming a Stormwater Utility in Camp Hill Borough, Cumberland County
Presentation by Adrienne Vicari (HRG) and Bruce Hulshizer (HRG)
With aging infrastructure, increased MS4 regulatory requirements and more significant flooding events, Camp Hill Borough realized it needed a more holistic way to manage and fund its stormwater program. The Borough spent two years working with a stakeholder committee and the public at large to consider options and implement a new municipal authority to manage stormwater. Implementation of a stormwater fee in mid-2020 enabled the Borough to be revenue neutral, despite loss of property tax revenue due to the pandemic. Join us for a discussion on lessons learned and successes realized during their process of implementing a stormwater utility.
