Description/History

As the City continues to grow a location for a second water treatment plant is necessary to sustain the service necessary to full growth potential for the City of Mansfield as well as the wholesale water customers the City serves.

 

Justification

The City is constantly looking to the future needs of sustaining service levels for its citizens.  In updating the water master plan the City has identified locations that would be ideal for a second water treatment plant.  This land has been identified as being in a location that would allow the City to sustain continued service levels for our citizens as well as the wholesale water customers the City serves.  It is best to try and purchase the land now so that the City can identify the location of a second water treatment plant in the planning stages.
