Providing this volume of storage will allow the City to meet its needs through <br />2040. While further storage may be needed prior to full build-out, using estimates to 2040 allows the City <br />to have adequate storage for nearly two decades, at which time population growth and projections can be <br />re-evaluated. In addition, constructing storage tanks at incremental times prevents water stagnation and <br />freezing that can be problematic with oversized tanks. <br />
