SPU Acquisition Presentation:

Before the forum begins, you’ll hear a short presentation from Dan Thwing about Shoreline’s plan for the “SPU Acquisition”, the City of Shoreline’s plan to purchase the water system from Seattle Public Utilities. The cost will be roughly $52 million – $90 million, plus an additional $14 million for capital construction, paid for by a revenue bond and seen by residents as an increase in their water bills. There will be a vote on this project in November, and it would be wise to become knowledgeable about this project in advance – some feel the project is mis-guided, and not an effective use of taxpayer funds.
