The need to upgrade the system to comply <br />with these applicable regulations is the first priority of the District <br />with the construction of water storage and pumping facilities following <br />close behind. The District is in a rapidly growing area caused by year <br />around recreation and the services demanded to support this need. <br /> <br />This report has investigated all the aspects of the water system including <br />existing and ultimate water demands, water rights, water supply, fire <br />protection, water storage, and water distribution and transmission. <br />In Section VIII, a Master Facilities Plan is made for the water system <br />to serve the District at full development with cost estimates for the <br />proposed facilities in Section IX. <br /> <br />xvi <br />
