Bingham Township residents consider OWASA's source water protection initiative an additional burden imposed on the a rural community by the demands of urban growth in Cantoro and Chapel WAL Watershed residents, who have no access to OWASA water, will realize-no water quality benefits from the sacrifices they must make- The OWASA Board recognizes this view and is sensitive to it We remain open to considering a range of flexible actions that might o1I'set the perceived loss of rural sovereignty: ' - Payments -in -lieu for unrealized volunteer fire district taxes that would otherwise be IeVIed on land owned by OWASA in Bingham Township. These are currently estimated to be in the range of $4,000 to $5,000 per year. • Use of O WASA's Cane Creek recreational site and former-Stanford house as a County- operated park and nature interpretive center.
