Meeting Water Needs
Providing for our residents’ current water needs while planning ahead to meet projected needs is a top priority for the City. To ensure the availability of this precious resource for future generations, the withdrawal of fresh water from our ecosystem cannot exceed its natural replacement rate. As Florida’s population continues to grow, it is increasingly vital that we take measures to conserve this life-sustaining natural resource.
