Water District holding public meetings

The Santa Clara Valley Water District will be holding three public meetings this month to discuss its long-range water supply project, the Integrated Water Resources Plan, and to ask the public for feedback on water-supply issues.

Residents concerned about our future water supply to the year 2020 are encouraged to attend and to explore questions such as: Will there be enough water in Santa Clara County's future? What are our options for keeping it flowing? How much will we be paying for it? Are we willing to endure more cutbacks like those during the 1987-92 drought?

The first meeting is Thursday, June 13, 7-9 p.m. at the Santa Clara City Council Chambers, 1500 Warburton Ave.

The second meeting will be held Wednesday, June 19, 7-9 p.m. at the Isaac Newton Senter Auditorium, County Government Center, 70 West Hedding St., San Jose.

The final meeting will be Thursday, June 27, 7-9 p.m. at Morgan Hill City Council Chambers, 17555 Peak Ave., Morgan Hill.

For more information, please call 265-2607, ext. 2227.
