Will the taxes for the general fund be reduced if this fee is added based on rainwater runoff? Will I be able to avoid the "fee" if I handle my own runoff instead of allowing it to run into streams such as using it for watering and other non-potable water uses? No? I didn't think so.

Hit send too early.

I was going to make the point that their promised reductions for "rain barrels, rain gardens, grassy swales, and so forth" will just happen to be too hard to administer and reducing the fee will cause the sewers to back up and drown children and kittens, so the fees will remain.
