2. Water Supply & Watershed Protection.  <<<<<<

Wednesday, March 3, 2021 at 6:30pm to 7:30pm

 

Strategic Discussions: How we shape the future of our critical water and sewer systems in step with our community.

What does the future of Montara and Moss Beach look like? How can we plan best to continue to serve you.

Montara Water and Sanitary District (MWSD) was formed to serve the needs of our unique coastal community. As we enter 2021, we continue to look at how we can best serve our coastside now and into the future.

Join the MWSD Board and staff for a community discussion of our sewer and water systems. Where are we now, what needs doing, what does the future look like?

Discussions will provide an overview of current system operations, and state and federal regulations, and broader coastside efforts. We’ll look at drought, climate change, aging infrastructure, new technology and community long-term interests. We rely on the bills you pay for the revenue to run our operations and maintain our infrastructure.
