SPUR Supports Non-Potable Water Ordinance

Letter supporting an ordinance that will codify process and provide grant funds for onsite treatment and reuse of water

Advocacy Letter /

This new ordinance will allow for design, permitting and installation of systems that capture, treat and reuse water generated on site for non-potable uses. Onsite treatment systems can save significant amounts of water — between 20-75 percent of potable water in mixed use and commercial buildings — and contribute to the city's water conservation goals, which SPUR strongly supports.
