Group B Meetup—April 2025

Thanks to everyone who attended the Group B Meetup on April 22nd. We had 20 people at the Coupeville Library and another 20 on Zoom, who together heard a presentation on the Coordinated Water System Plan and a briefing on legislative changes to the SMA requirements for Group B systems. In addition, there were many question and issues discussed and we’ll post a recap shortly.

In the meantime, the zoom meeting recording link is below along with the meeting’s agenda and the main topic presentation. More to come but we wanted to get this posted quickly.
