Additional Neighborhood Water Meetings Scheduled
Waukesha Water Utility presentation is designed to answer questions residents have about Waukesha's future water supply.
Have you heard about the problems the Waukesha Water Utility faces in developing a new water supply? Have you ever wished someone would ask a certain question about the Great Lakes water application and you wanted a clear answer?
The Waukesha Water Utility and area aldermen are teaming together to hold neighborhood meetings about the cityβs future water supply. The in-depth discussion includes a history of groundwater resources in Waukesha, where the city is at now and why the Waukesha Water Utility is seeking Lake Michigan water to address its long-term water needs.
Dozens of residents in District 1 had the opportunity to sit through the presentation on Wednesday with Alderman Terry Thieme. Β Now other aldermen are holding their neighborhood meetings.
