October 2024 Board Notes

November 1, 2024

Commissioners approved the Local Water Supply Plan, which covers how GUC will appropriately manage the community’s water supply. This plan is required by the state and must be updated and re-submitted annually. 

Commissioners authorized GUC to move forward with Phase III of a Water Main Rehab project, which will clean and line roughly 18,000 feet of cast iron and cement water mains. Staff was also authorized to add more length of rehabilitation to the project, as the bid came in $1M under the $5M state grant award.  

Staff showcased a new brochure highlighting some of the environmental initiatives GUC is doing to live up to the “in an environmentally responsible” part of our mission. The brochure shows a wide variety of projects with an environmental benefit. All told, these various projects combined to reduce CO2 emissions by an estimated 2,851 tons in 2023. The brochure is available here.
