Hi Bill, thank you for that paper. I can see some potential benefits for the City of Airway Heights if this project is done right and if it doesn’t negatively affect residents or future growth. Using reclaimed water could create a new source of revenue for the city without increasing taxes, and that money could potentially be used to improve infrastructure, maintain utility systems, or support future city needs. A project of this size could also bring jobs during construction and some long-term employment opportunities afterward, while creating more business activity for local restaurants, hotels, and services. If the developer helps pay for needed upgrades, the city could end up with improved water infrastructure and better long-term system reliability. I also like the idea of making use of reclaimed water instead of relying entirely on drinking water resources. At the same time, I think it’s important to make sure the city protects its residents first, fully understands the long-term costs, and puts agreements in place that ensure Airway Heights benefits well into the future.
