Committee asks staff to scope consolidated water study for Greater Rigby area

Planning committee · June 9, 2026

Summary

Members asked staff to investigate the feasibility and cost of a combined water/aquifer study covering the Greater Rigby area; staff suggested contacting Rocky Mountain Environmental for an initial scope and cost estimate and agreed to follow up.

A committee member pressed staff for an aggregated water study to understand cumulative impacts of multiple subdivision-level water tests on the aquifer. The member said the standalone tests were expensive and asked whether combining them could show broader aquifer risk: "It's an insane — it's an expensive study," the member said when discussing cost barriers to a consolidated analysis.

Staff (speaker 6) recommended contacting Rocky Mountain Environmental to scope the work and provide a cost estimate, and the committee asked staff to pursue that outreach. Staff also noted an AI tool rollout is expected around late July, but the water study scoping was assigned as a near-term follow-up to avoid losing momentum.
