Panel to Study Plans to Privatize Waterworks
- Share via
Five proposals for outside companies to take over the city’s water operations will be discussed Monday night by the city’s ad hoc committee on water privatization.
The seven-member committee, made up of City Councilman Mark Leyes, Mayor Bruce Broadwater and city staff, will meet in the City Council conference room in City Hall, 11222 Acacia Parkway, at 6:30 p.m.
The committee will present a report on water company proposals for taking over the department and discuss how to proceed with the possible takeover.
Privatizing water operations was presented as an option after a $6-million deficit forced council members to postpone approval of this year’s budget. The budget is scheduled to be reviewed next month.
