There has been some talk about Troy's proposed reservoir, which will
conveniently be located on University of Idaho land, making it a little
bit easier to do. The proposed reservoir will cover approximately 25
acres and will store 245 million gallons (compare that to their current
reservoir of 8 million gallons and you can see why they are excited
about it). They received their conditional use permit for municipal
water storage earlier this year, but I have not heard how the fund
procurement process has been going. I believe the Troy town fathers
thought federal funds would be the best source to tap.
Mark, was there any discussion regarding locations for a Moscow
reservoir? I've got a couple in mind, but I wonder how landowners would
feel about having a reservoir on their property.
By the way, I'm all for building one. But, as Gary Riedner said, I'd
hope we can find a painless way to pay for it.
