Town Council Meeting - September 24th, 2026

The Town of Sahuarita held a panel discussion on September 24, 2026, focused on water resource management, sustainability, and infrastructure planning. Representatives from local water utilities including Community Water Company, Global Water Resources, Green Valley Water Improvement District, JW Water, and Sahuarita Water Company participated to inform the town council and public about water supply capacity, regulatory compliance, and long-term water sustainability. The panelists emphasized that new developments must fund their own infrastructure expansions and that water providers operate under strict regulatory oversight, primarily by the Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR) and the Arizona Corporation Commission. They discussed the assured water supply program requiring proof of a 100-year sustainable water source before new subdivisions are approved, and highlighted ongoing regional cooperation and recharge projects to maintain aquifer health. The council acknowledged the complexity of water management and expressed intent to invite ADWR representatives for further detailed discussions. No specific procurement actions, contract awards, or budget allocations were addressed during this informational meeting.
