Various improvements throughout the facilities need to be completed to improve safety, security, operational flexibility and restorations. To complete these improvements, this ordinance authorizes the expenditure of monies from the Water Bond Improvement Fund. Ordinance 576-21 received First Reading on 11/23/2021 authorizing the appropriation of these funds into the account code being used for this expense.
