El Reno is going to grow. And that means it’s going to need more water.
The results of a study of El Reno’s water well field infrastructure were presented at the April city council meeting. Bill Myers with Myers Engineering said the study shows El Reno is in good shape today where water is concerned, but as Mayor Steve Jensen put it, “We can’t take our foot off the gas.”
Myers said El Reno’s growth projections show the population will increase. The question is how much.
