The boosters are looking at getting a 2inch water line run to the concession stand.  The boosters will have to meet with the Water & Sewer committee for further information before any commitments can be made.

The committee has suggested that we look at putting meters on the water lines for the businesses.  It is felt that the co-op is using too much water for the amount that we bill them.  The committee has collected information from Polo to help compare rates and usage.
