<div class="content"><span style="padding-left: 50px;">(COLUMBIA, MO)</span> - <p style="display:inline;">Public feedback needed: Columbia's Water Resource Plan</p>
<p>Wed., October 19, come and go as you please from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.<br />Activity and Recreation Center (ARC), 1701 West Ash Street</p>
<p>Should Columbia...Increase raw water supply and treatment capacity? Reclaim and reuse water? Manage demand for water? Implement more water conservation/efficiency measures? Capture stormwater for irrigation?</p>
<p>A <a href="http://www.comowater.org/">Water Resource Plan</a> is being developed to act as a guide to ensure a reliable, cost-effective water supply for the next 25 years and beyond. Through the long-term planning process, we can better prepare for potential challenges and evaluate alternatives to incorporate new strategies in our water system. The Integrated Water Resource Plan will consider a broader range of water management strategies including new opportunities for conservation, reuse, and reclamation. Please go to <a href="http://www.comowater.org/">CoMoWater.org</a> for more information.</p>
<p>Columbians are urged to attend the public meeting and/or fill out the online survey at <a href="http://www.comowater.org/get-involved.html">hwww.comowater.org/get-involved.html</a></p>
<p>Attached are the four fact sheets for the Water Resource Plan.</p>
<p>NOTE: This is a separate plan than the Our Columbia Waters Integrated Management Plan for the Wastewater and Stormwater utilities.</p></div>
