CM"
Plan compiled by Buchan Horn and adopted by Frederick Water in August 2017. He
highlighted plans for immediate changes in the system as well as growth projections and
possible necessary improvements to support new development in five, ten, and 15 years.
Mr. Lawrence noted that with limited capacity allocated to the system, heavy water users
will take capacity away from smaller users and may cause Frederick Water to have to spend
on infrastructure. He added that Frederick Water has adjusted consumption and availability
fee rates in response to the Master Plan. Mr. Lawrence advocated for clear communication
among the boards attending the work session when planning for future growth. There was
an opportunity for questions following the presentation.
