The next City Council meeting is Wednesday, June 24, at 6 p.m., with a Stormwater Workshop beginning at 5 p.m.
The City of Plantation is undertaking an update to its Stormwater Utility Assessment Methodology to ensure that stormwater fees more accurately reflect current development patterns, operational requirements, and the proportional runoff contributions of all property types. As part of this effort, City Engineer Samira Shalan will host a public workshop to provide a comprehensive update on stormwater utility operations, engineering activities, and long‑term funding needs. The City is proposing an increase to the stormwater utility rate, and this workshop will play a critical role in identifying the appropriate level of funding and the adjustments necessary to support system maintenance, regulatory compliance, and future infrastructure improvements. The public is invited to attend the workshop at 5 p.m. on June 24 at City Hall. Because this is a workshop and no vote will be taken, public comment will not be part of the session, but community attendance and engagement are strongly encouraged.
