Top issues during term (7)(Environment)
Water Service Reliability
Substantial capital and operating expenses associated with pipeline infrastructure and reverse osmosis water treatment.
Water Quality and Infrastructure
Potential long-term savings on water acquisition costs through increased market competition.
water main break
Repairs will likely cost taxpayers some money, but it's a necessary fix for our water system.
Water System Security
Without state funding, water rates for residents could increase significantly.
public water quality
This means the city saved money on emergency water testing and distribution, and residents didn't have to spend extra on bottled water.
border project flood risk
We might end up paying more to fix flood damage if we don't get this right now.
wastewater system contamination
Cleaning this mess up could cost taxpayers a pretty penny.
