2017-9-9 CWAG Answers Your Water Questions from CWAGAZ on Vimeo.
Where does our water come from? Do we have enough? What happens to the water we conserve? What is the Big Chino pipeline and do we need it? Will our water rates go up? On Saturday, Sept. 9, former Citizens Water Advocacy Group (CWAG) president John Zambrano and former Verde River Basin Partnership chair Ed Wolfe (now a CWAG board member) answered these questions and more. Wolfe and Zambrano will provide CWAG’s answers to the five questions discussed at CWAG’s Aug. 5 Prescott mayor and council candidate forum, and address questions asked by the forum audience. Read the forum questions at cwagaz.org and/or view the forum in the video archive.
