Know Your Water (and What's In It) > A Clean Bill of Health Here In Mesa?

Yes, dear readers, please take the time to watch a presentation from yesterday's Mesa City Council Study Session: there was a presentation by Chief City Engineer Beth Hunig on the Phase 3 Expansion of The Greenfield Water Reclamation Treatment Plant.
At the time of this early morning posting less than 30 persons have had the opportunity to see-watch-and-listen - very few members of the public usually don't have the time or interest to take the opportunity to find out about if the City of Mesa is doing enough about our water supply, whether it the source is groundwater from canals or wells dugged deep into the aquifers or reclaimed.
All the sources are required to be tested to conform with federal standards that may or may not test potential health hazards.
Below is an infographic to show you the taxpayer-funded expenses and the ongoing debt burden in Bond Obligations for this fiscal year that are recouped by transaction privilege taxes and monthly utility service charges - water and waste water treatment is A HUGE CHUNK taken out of the budget pie amounting to over $126,000,000 and eating up 66.3% of the Debt Bond obligations . . . Disproportionate amounts are spent in different districts as an investment in infrastructure for economic development.
