Title
Presentation from Metro Vancouver Water Services
Recommended Action
Whereas the Township of Langley is considering millions of dollars in capital investment for multiple, local water treatment plants dependent upon groundwater sources;
Whereas Metro Vancouver has significant expertise and infrastructure for the treatment and supply of quality potable water from regional, above-ground sources, protected watersheds and reservoirs; and
Whereas Metro Vancouver operates multiple world-class drinking water treatment facilities that treat and provide drinking water to the highest national health standards to millions of residents on a daily basis;
Therefore be it resolved that Council request a presentation from Metro Vancouver Water Services summarizing the quality and long-term plan for its water infrastructure, and the ongoing benefits and advantages of potentially purchasing Metro Vancouver water supply vs expanding local treatment facilities dependent on groundwater sources.
