Thursday Dec 14 between 6:30 p.m. and 8 p.m. at the Orcas Senior Center

— from Paul Kamin, General Manager, Eastsound Water Users Association —

Eastsound Water is hosting a membership meeting on Thursday Dec 14 between 6:30 p.m. and 8 p.m. at the Orcas Senior Center.

A special rate committee made up from the Eastsound Water Board and general Association members has working throughout 2017 to develop an all-new rate structure. A group of six  members has been meeting weekly from June-Nov to create a new structure to equitable distribute the operating costs of the association. The rate committee will be presenting the results of their work at the Annual Meeting, and are anxious to discuss it with the membership prior to Board approval in early 2018.

In addition there is an election for expiring Board terms. In the recent EastsoundVision.com survey may participants mentioned concerns about local water resources capacities to support future growth. Eastsound Water’s future capacity plans will be shared at this meeting. We also will review the water system improvements made in 2017, the benefits of EWUA’s online meter analytics system, and our 2018 “work plans.”

No reservations are needed, but we hope you’ll come and join us. Put it on your Calendar – DEC 14, between 6:30 p.m.-8 p.m. at the SENIOR CENTER. Call 360 376 2127 with any questions.
