Water Storage <br /> <br />As stated in the City's Comprehensive Water Plan, the ultimate <br />projected water storage requirement is six million gallons. The <br />proposed facilities include three (3) one-million gallon ele- <br />vated reservoirs and one (1) three-million gallon ground <br />reservoir. <br /> <br />To minimize the financial impact on the City during the first <br />few years of the water system operation, it was proposed to use <br />a hydropneumatic system. This system does not meet fire flow <br />demands, nor does it supply water through an extended power <br />outage or equipment breakdown. However, it does provide basic <br />water service at a relatively constant pressure. <br /> <br />The City is currently considering the use of tax increment <br />financing to finance the construction of a water tower. It has <br />been determined, due to the location of the airport, that the <br />first water tower would be located on the east side of the City. <br /> <br /> <br />
