Water Facility Plan

Completed by Murray, Smith and Associates, in collaboration with the city, the Water Facility Plan conducts a comprehensive analysis of the city's water system.

The plan includes:

  • A description of the existing water system
  • City's population growth and future water demand projections
  • Evaluations of the city's water system supply, distribution, condition of existing facilities, and operation and maintenance programs
  • A capital improvement program 
  • Cost estimates for recommended projects with associated financial plans and funding strategies
