Water Treatment Options:
Glade Irrigation District (GID) is in the process of upgrading the water treatment facility and requested input from the community. Surveys were distributed twice and the responses tallied. A total of 37 families submitted surveys. The top three choices were for Point of Entry, Full chlorination, and Individual Wells. The "Water Options Committee" is gathering additional information regarding those 3 options so that the community will be able to proceed.
For more information regarding why GID is required to upgrade the treatment facility, see here.
