skepticism runneth over.&nbsp; How does this apply to the soggy sidewalks at
city hall? I might buy this for the soccer fields by the youth center or the
park at mountain view which are actual playfields but it doesn't fly for east
city or gormley. Why was the watering done outside the hours that the rest of

playfields not get &quot;bouncy&quot; when watered after&nbsp;6:00 PM&nbsp;and
before 8:00 AM? How does this address the desire of our current city government
to acquire additional ground that will consume additional water? If it's all
about the liability of falling down on a hard surface why are we allowing
tennis courts and basketball courts to remain open to say nothing of the
exceedingly non-bouncy skate park? If the city is accepting liability for
injuries received on surfaces lacking in bounce I would have to suggest that
they do something about those nasty sidewalks that seem to be cropping up
everywhere. Or perhaps it will be your contention that this is what explains
the damp concrete around city hall?</span><o:p></o:p></p>

If the incumbent candidates you favor are so concerned (and
&quot;responsible&quot;) with water usage in Moscow, unlike their challengers,
why did the city of Moscow not follow its own regulations for lawn watering?
The grass (and sidewalks) around city hall sure received more than its fair
share of water as did gormley mtn. view and&nbsp;east city park. Why do they
continually favor the dedication of additional park land? Land which, like the
golf course in Pullman, will require huge amounts of water to maintain. I have
not heard the candidates your organization endorses make any resolutions to
address the water issues in Moscow other than in the form of anti-growth
anti-business rhetoric. If it's outrageous to want to have a green lawn and an
aesthetically pleasant and restful cemetery why not apply the same standard to
city property? (300 sq. ft. of xeriscape at the 1912 bldg. excepted, of
course.) I believe that as far as the MCA candidates are concerned the water
issue is a tool first and a genuine concern a distant second.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

current usage curves and&nbsp;increase in number of&nbsp;wells going dry shows
that we are going down the same path and very likely going to be facing the
&quot;crisis&quot; referenced by Mark in about 15-20 years (not
the&nbsp;century or more that you speculate)&nbsp;-- unless we do something to
curb usage of the Wanapum.&nbsp; We had to do this once before,&nbsp;more than
40 years ago, when we essentially stopped pumping the Wanapum in the City of
Moscow&nbsp; because the Wanapum was going dry.&nbsp; We (City of Moscow)
punched a well into the Grand Ronde aquifer and started pumping it, instead,
which allowed the Wanapum to re-charge.&nbsp;&nbsp; We started drawing
on&nbsp;the Wanapum&nbsp;again, more recently (80s?), and the usage is tracking
what went on in the first half to mid-20th century.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

&gt;&gt; I'd suggest the GMA candidates do some homework and actually read<br>
&gt;&gt; some of the studies/reports on our aquifer, particularly regarding<br>
&gt;&gt; the upper aquifer which if continued to be pumped at current levels<br>
&gt;&gt; could be in crisis as soon as 15-20 years from now. That aquifer<br>
&gt;&gt; currently supplies 30% of Moscow's water.<br>

&gt;&gt;&gt;don't think that's a great idea,&quot; Carscallen said of the water

&gt;&gt;&gt;&quot;We don't have a water emergency. I think most of us can agree
to<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt;that,&quot; said Krauss. &quot;We could have, at the least, 200
years of water<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt;left. ... But right now, folks, I'm just really tired of seeing all<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt;our yards just burned up, including the cemetery.&quot;<br>

&gt;&gt;&gt;&quot;I know that there are people who believe that we should be<br>
