As communities face frequent water restrictions, especially during the summer months, it's more important than ever to understand the complex and crucial work that goes into ensuring we all have access to clean, safe water. From maintaining infrastructure to implementing conservation measures, our local government is at the forefront of managing our water supply, balancing the needs of our growing city with the realities of our environment.
