-
Fee
Residential:
The approved fee is $4.75 for each equivalent residential unit (ERU), which is based on 3,700 square feet of impervious surface, representing the median residential use in Unincorporated Cobb County and Mableton. All residential properties will be charged $4.75 per month beginning June 1, 2026.
Non-Residential:
Charges for non-residential properties will be based on the actual area of impervious surface divided by 3,700 to determine the number of ERU's, which is then multiplied by the $4.75 base rate. Non-residential Example: 20,000ft² of impervious/3,700 ft² x $4.75=$25.68 per month.
