Resident warns of outside water-rights request, urges letter campaign
Summary
A resident alleged a third party seeks a large water withdrawal ("He's asking for 10,000,000 gallons"), said a drilling contractor sat on the conservation district board without recusal, and urged members to push the governor to add the issue to a special session and join a letter-writing campaign.
A resident raised an urgent concern about a proposed water withdrawal and potential conflicts of interest at the conservation district. "He's asking for 10,000,000 gallons," the resident said, and alleged the drilling contractor was on the conservation-district board and did not recuse himself until the issue became public.
The resident urged members to participate in a letter-writing campaign and to press state leaders to add the matter to a special session. No formal action was recorded at the meeting; the speaker asked for volunteers to draft template language and said they would post more information on Facebook.
