A Proclamation was recently submitted to the Eau Claire City Council for a water Stewardship and Conservation Plan to assure that our children and grandchildren can enjoy clean, safe drinking water, and healthy rivers and lakes for recreation and enjoyment.  Citizen comment will be heard on July 10 2023, and the city council will vote on July 11.

PROCLAMATION
