Work is still being done to bring water back to Rio Verde Foothills. While the legislation was passed in June, the process takes time.
"The community has really come together this summer to help neighbors out, to make sure that everybody's covered. The water haulers have done a phenomenal job of making sure that they're able to still keep this community going," said Meredith DeAngelis, chair of the Rio Verde Foothills Standpipe District board.
Meredith DeAngelis is chair of the board and one of five members who were elected by the state to provide a temporary water solution to residents wishing to be part of the district. This would happen through an intergovernmental agreement with the City of Scottsdale and a third-party water source. Representative Alex Kolodin authored the amendment that helped make this all possible and showed ABC15 how things are coming along.
The board has legal counsel helping them with their negotiations with Scottsdale. Kolodin says a draft IGA has been exchanged and they are working through the final language.
