Water Meeting: Feb 5th

East Isthmus Drinking Water Series Announcement

A collaborative effort of Madison Water Utility and near east side neighborhoods (Marquette, Emerson East, and Schenk-Atwood-Starkweather-Yahara) has resulted in a series of public meetings to discuss drinking water issues on the East Isthmus. The first meeting will be held on Monday, February 5, 6-8 pm, at 1021 Spaight Street, Immanuel Lutheran Church. Topics to be covered include water quality testing to ensure drinking water safety, the role of Public Health, and how Madison Water Utility communicates with its customers about drinking water issues.

Additional meetings are also being scheduled to address challenges with locating a new well on the Isthmus, the impact of development pressure on water supply, long-term sustainability of the aquifer, and water conservation. Updates on dates and agendas for future meetings can be found at www.cityofmadison.com/water. Meetings are currently being planned for late April and June.

All meetings are open to the public. We hope you can join us.
