The District of Highlands opposes the servicing of residential properties in the municipality by public water supply and will support servicing of commercial/light industrial properties within the Highlands Business Park by a public water supply only if it can be demonstrated that the use of groundwater as a supply is less safe, less cost-effective and less environmentally appropriate.
