Arlington: Council to discuss water
The Arlington City Council plans to discuss changes to the city’s Water Comprehensive Plan at a meeting at 7 p.m. Tuesday.
The changes reflect Arlington’s growing population and its increased need for water. City staff want to study water supplies that may help meet the needs of Arlington residents in 50 years.
The council is also scheduled to elect a council member to the mayor pro tem position. The mayor pro tem fills in for the mayor when the mayor is not available.
Other items on the agenda include water-use efficiency goals, an emergency management coordinator and improvements to 67th Avenue NE.
The council usually meets on Mondays, but it is meeting on Tuesday because of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
The meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. in City Council Chambers, 110 E. Third St.

The council is not scheduled to vote on the idea at the meeting.
