The City has invited 30 community leaders representing the diverse water needs of our community to participate in the Water Vision Stakeholder Group. The group formation follows a stakeholder mapping exercise while the group size blends manageability with an equitable representation of the 8 stakeholder segments the City identified.
Each delegate of the Water Vision Stakeholder Group will be asked to share the perspective of their constituents/customers within 5 interactive and educational workshops scheduled from April through January 2021. All insight gathered from the group will be summarized and shared with the public, relevant staff, Water Commission, and City Council to inform key decisions in the plan.
