General Membership Luncheon - May 201...
Description
THIS EVENT IS FULL.
This month, we will hear from representatives of the Douglas County Sewer Improvement District who several months ago proposed big changes to their storage reservoirs in the East Valley. Those changes included a new, large flood control reservoir, the use of excavated materials for commercial purposes to mitigate the costs of the project and the construction of a new reservoir for reclaimed wastewater, which would be designated, as in the past, for crop irrigation.
As you’ll recall, after the project was approved by the Planning Commission, a number of residents of East Valley objected strongly to the proposal that included the use of Buckeye, East Valley and Toler as routes to be used to haul the aggregate material out and to the timing of the flood control element, which seemed unnecessarily long. DCSID has gone back to the drawing board and will be presenting alternatives to the original plan that addresses both the concerns of the routing and its impacts on roads and the timing of the flood control improvements.
This is an important project and one that impacts both the Lake and Valley residents of Douglas County. You can hear the details first hand at our luncheon at Walley’s.
Reservations for this luncheon are mandatory as we have about 90 seats available and we expect every seat to be filled.
