St. George’s population is set to double in the next 40 years; 'Water needs to be treated as liquid gold,' Mayor Michele Randall said.
That means St. George residents need to become more conscious of their water use, Mayor Michele Randall said in her State of the City address at the Dixie Center Tuesday afternoon. It was the mayor’s first public message to her voters, after being elected the first woman leader in the city’s 159-year history.
Before driving to give her address, the mayor said she stopped by a local gas station for a bottle of water that cost her $1.84 and said that demand for this precious resource would only increase.More water will be needed for the new residents expected to move to the city in the next 40 years. The growth requires more public safety and housing, she said, noting that she and the city administration are working to grow the city under an economic plan called St. George 2040.
