We understand that it was not possible to provide time for an OWASA presentation <br />at the September 24th Assembly of Governments meeting. <br />We would therefore like to present the highlights and recommendations of the draft Water <br />Supply Plan Update to each of your governing boards and receive your feedback before the end <br />of the calendar year. We estimate that our presentation would take about 20 minutes, with <br />additional time for questions and discussion. <br />Ed Kerwin will contact your respective Managers to discuss scheduling our presentations. <br />Effective long-range planning for an adequate, high quality water supply is one of OWASA's <br />highest priorities and obligations to the community. We look forward to meeting with you to <br />discuss our analysis of these issues and to receiving your comments and questions. <br />For your information, we are planning to hold a community meeting on November 11th at 7 PM <br />in the Chapel Hill Town Hall to present the draft Water Supply Plan Update and receive <br />feedback from customers and the general public. <br />Best regards, <br />Randy Kabrick, P.E., Chair <br />Enclosure <br />c: Mr. Frank Clifton, Interim Manager, Orange County <br />Mr. Roger L.
