Statement of Position: WATER SUPPLY IN SALT LAKE COUNTY

The League of Women Voters of Salt Lake believes the demand for water should be managed as one means of insuring future local water supply.

We support price structure adjustments such as inverted block rates and flexible rates based on seasonal demands and elevation, but oppose higher water rates to new connections.

We support restrictions on days and times of outdoor water use during periods of limited supply.

We reaffirm our support of measures to coordinate management of local water supplies.
