Hollis Calls Storage Inadequate For Alpine Water Needs
Hollis addresses Alpine City Council noting current three tanks hold 779000 gallons with a planned 2000000 gallon reservoir. If storage expands, well pumping could be reduced and a pipeline may deliver treated water to Ko Kernot Park and the golf course for irrigation. Regular city water would serve drinking needs at the pool and Country Club.
