The process for applying for credits is detailed in the two Stormwater Utility Fee Credit Manuals; one covers single family residential properties and the other commercial, industrial, institutional and multi-family residential properties. The city has also published the Roanoke Stormwater Ideabook which discusses many options for homeowners to better manage stormwater runoff.

While the deadline for applying credits for this year has expired, property owners are encouraged to submit credit applications at any time.
