The City of Salisbury Stormwater Utility and associated service fee are a result of an unfunded federal mandate that raised the standards for local municipalities regarding stormwater removal. The Stormwater Utility in Salisbury, established in July 2012, will overhaul the stormwater infrastructure within City limits and create cleaner water for our community in an effort to preserve the overall health of our physical environment.
