Waukesha County forum to focus on Great Lakes Compact

By Jim Butman

Is the proposed Great Lakes Water Compact Good for Waukesha County? The Waukesha County Chamber of Commerce will host a forum to discuss that issue on Thursday, Feb. 28, at 7:30 a.m. at the County Springs Hotel.

The soon-to-be considered compact will determine Waukesha's future water options.

The speakers at the forum will include: Peter McAvoy, vice president for environmental health at the Sixteenth Street Community Health Center in Milwaukee; Matt Moroney, executive director of the Metropolitan Builders Association; Waukesha Mayor Larry Nelson; and Waukesha County Executive Dan Vrakas.

RSVPs are requested for the free event by contacting the WCCC at (262) 542-4249 or pwallner@waukesha.org.

An additional forum discussion on the subject, "The Issues and Science behind the Pending Great Lakes Water Compact," will take place Wednesday, March 5, at Discovery World on Milwaukee's lakefront.
