There’s one more chance to find out details for a multi-million-dollar water plan in Greater Vernon.

The Regional District of North Okanagan will hold a public session Thursday at 5-7 p.m. at the Schubert Centre.

“This will provide information on the borrowing referendum and the master water plan priority projects,” said Zee Marcolin, Greater Vernon Water manager.

The lead consultant of the master water plan and Greater Vernon Water staff will provide an information presentation starting at 5:30 p.m., followed by a question and answer session.

On Saturday, residents will be asked if they support borrowing up to $70 million for six projects outlined in the master water plan.

For more information, go to www.rdno.ca/water.

This is the last opportunity for residents to listen to the sales pitch by the consultant, staff and Director Macnabb for the support of the $70 million MWP referendum.

Just for additional information: Director Macnabb is unbiased as he is not connected to the Greater Vernon Water utility so he is not subject to paying the costs. He is just asking the rest of us to pay!
