The manager of the TRWD speaks on the 6 year, $6 million dollar lawsuit against Oklahoma.
WHERE do you think they got the $6 mil? If you guessed YOU, you guessed correctly.
Notice how “continued growth and prosperity” remain one of their top priorities. Funny, we thought their priorities were supposed to be water and flood control.
Did you Float with Feces at the Rocking the River event Thursday? What did that cost?
Someone tell Oliver to put our money down and hush.
At least they “will look at other options to provide water” now. Citizens have been asking them to for years. They were too busy wakeboarding and restaurant building.
If they think the answer is the pipeline (the one their own staff doesn’t recommend and they are being sued over) or Marvin Nichols, maybe we need a new manager…
While we're at it, could we get some new attorney's too? Cause any who thought this was a good idea need to go. Stat.
Jim Oliver, general manager of the Tarrant Regional Water District, said that he is disappointed with the decision and that the district will look at other options to provide water for the region.
Securing additional water resources is essential to North Texas’ continued growth and prosperity and will remain one of our top priorities,” Oliver said, adding that the district spent about $6 million fighting the case in court.
Oliver said the district will continue to work with Oklahoma to see whether a deal can be struck for the purchase of water. “We’re still going to try to continue discussions with Oklahoma to see if some kind compromise can be reached, but I’m not going to bet the farm on it,” he said.
“The population in our service area is expected to double over the next 50 years, so we will act quickly to develop new sources,” Oliver said.
