During a recent government meeting, officials addressed concerns regarding local water supply amid extreme heat conditions. A member raised questions about the status of reservoirs and water levels, particularly in light of ongoing conservation efforts.

The response highlighted that the primary water sources, Klot Java and Lake Michigan, are currently meeting demand effectively. However, officials expressed concern about the reliance on well systems, which lack backup support. They noted that while recent rainfall has helped maintain water levels, the recharge of aquifers is a slow process, and any significant drop could necessitate restrictions on water usage for residents.

Officials assured that they are closely monitoring the situation and will communicate with the community if any directives are needed. The discussion underscored the importance of ongoing vigilance in managing water resources, especially during periods of high demand.

In addition to water supply discussions, the meeting also covered a joint resolution for an agreement with Professional Engineering Services for annual pavement testing. The resolution, which involves a maximum cost of $170,000, aims to ensure the maintenance and safety of local infrastructure. The committee approved the motion, reflecting a commitment to ongoing infrastructure management.
