Public concerns over the use of recycled water led to <br /> the formation of a Community Task Force. The primary focus of the Task Force <br /> was how to solve the City's increasing imbalance in water supply and demand <br /> while alleviating the concerns of the public. The Task Force report, which <br /> recommended alternatives for project implementation, was accepted by the City <br /> Council on March 22, 2004, and staff was directed to provide a schedule of <br /> implementation as soon as possible. By 2010, the project is expected to reduce <br /> demand on drinking water suppty by 2,002 Acre-Feet per year. The primary <br /> component of this project is the development of treatment, storage, pumping and <br /> distribution facilities for 1,687 AF/year of Recycled Water. <br /> Page 1 of 4 <br />
