DISCUSSION / DIRECTION 9.1 2023 Community Plan Review — Chapter 5 • Action 5.1.1: Tom P. said that the math with the increased water rates would take 2 decades, so what is the objective of the money.

Michael B. wants to promote, not incentivize. Lynn T. said that people want to live here so they should have to pay. Tom P. said that developments moving forward should acknowledge that our water system might move in a direction that they don't want as it is in flux.
