Board Meeting/ Public Hearing
Skyler Allingham, G.M. and V.P. Kim Seney presented a year end review of water services in the district. There was great participation and discussion from the public. Some key points made by the public is that existing homes and lot owners should be encouraged to conserve water, since the water infrastructure in place will support 1/3 of the development's build out. The very high summer usage was driven by 10% of the connected customers and the CSD and the HOA are working to educate, encourage reduction and offer alternatives to theses excessive water users.
