More than $725 million in water, wastewater and stormwater system revenue was collected in FY 2022, used to maintain existing infrastructure and expand access to clean water, stormwater and sanitary sewer systems.
This amount comes from the SC Revenue and Fiscal Affairs Office’s Local Government Finance Report, which had 160 cities and towns responding as of December 2023. Failure to submit this annual report by the March 15 deadline may result in a 10% withholding of distributions from the State Treasurer’s Office, such as Local Government Fund and state accommodations tax funding, until the municipality submits the required information.
The report’s information is used to prepare fiscal impact statements on proposed legislation as requested by state legislators and to analyze financial trends. Learn more and find the data online.
