Mission Trails Project: A Water Authority Invitation to Participate

A commitment to gathering and integrating community input for construction projects has prompted the San Diego County Water Authority to form the Mission Trails Working Group.  The working group’s efforts will focus on a new construction project in Mission Trails Regional Park which includes the construction of a flow regulatory structure and tunnel for a new section of pipeline approximately one mile long.  The working group will work with the Water Authority’s project team to identify community concerns about the project and propose ways to address those concerns.

The communities of Tierrasanta, San Carlos and Allied Gardens, as well as park users and the Mission Trails Regional Park Citizens Advisory Committee are represented in the working group.

“The Water Authority has a history of being open and incorporating community input and concerns into its projects,” said Don Steele, a member of the Mission Trails Working Group who serves on the Mission Trails Foundation and is also a former park employee.  “By forming this working group, the Water Authority continues its good neighbor approach for Mission Trails Regional Park.”

The Water Authority invites the public to attend the next meeting of the working group to learn about the input the group is providing the Water Authority about the Mission Trails Project.
