Stormwater is excess rainfall that is not absorbed into the ground. As the rainfall flows to nearby canals, lakes, the Intracoastal Waterway, and the ocean, it can pick up dirt, debris, chemicals, and other pollutants. Our stormwater management system helps to filter out these pollutants and prevent flooding in our neighborhoods.
The stormwater fee on your Boynton Beach Utilities bill pays for the following services:
- Capital Improvement Projects
- Routine maintenance of City infrastructure (ponds, swales, pipes, catch basins, grates, pump stations)
- Maintenance before & after storm events
- Improving drainage in areas affected by King Tides
