The development district would be organized as a taxing unit, and would act as the contracting agent to obtain federal grants and loans to complete construction. Before such a unit can be formed, it must be approved by vogers in the area Involved. Work is also being done in an effort to obtain a committment from each of the Incorporated cities of the area for matching funds for a feasibility study. Funds would be allocated on the basis of water connections. Ta-blo- na Preliminary studies Indicate that such a project is feasible. With the Influx of population, it Is felt that such an undertaking is the only means by which a major water shortage situation can be averted In the near future. Studies are also being made to determine the compatibility of this project with the Central Utah Project, which includes some developments In the vicinity of the proposed water source.
