RED MOUNTAIN SOUTH LID

Thursday, November 27th, 2008

A public workshop has been scheduled to provide an update on the status of the formation of the Local Improvement District (LID) for the south side of Red Mountain.  The meeting will begin at 6:30 pm on Tuesday, December 9th, and will be held at the Terra Blanca Winery, 34715 N. DeMoss Road, Benton City, WA.

The owners of nearly 2,000 acres of land have petitioned KID to form a local improvement district to pay for construction of the irrigation system. The purpose of the meeting will be to update the landowners on the status of the water right application, the system design, projected costs, the variables which affect the costs, environmental issues and the potential construction schedule. Tom Tebb, Regional Director for the Department of Ecology, will be present and available to answer questions.

Property owners will be given an opportunity to ask questions at the meeting. If unable to attend the meeting, written comments or questions can be submitted to District Planner Scott Revell by email at srevell@kid.org.

Notice of the December 9th workshop meeting will be mailed to all property owners on the south side of Red Mountain next week.

There is additional information available the District’s website at www.kid.org on the Red Mountain link on the “projects” tab.
