A letter has been sent to several communities in reference to financial contribution for the Duluth Urbanized Area Growth Impact Study. At the October 16, 2002 meeting of the Lake Superior Regional Water Committee, it was determined that efforts first be placed on the importance of examining growth issues before pursuing the extension of water infrastructure. Canosia Township Town Board has approved the contribution of $3,000 to participate in the growth study as a partner with Arrowhead Regional Development Commission/Metropolitan Interstate Committee (ARDC/MIC), City of Duluth, St. Louis County, Hermantown, Proctor, Rice Lake Township, and WLSSD. The Lake Superior Regional Water Committee is requesting a $15,000 contribution from the City of Duluth and St. Louis County. The ARDC/MIC has contributed $15,000, which is included in the 2003 Work Program. The total cost of the project is $60,000.

ARDC/MIC will be coordinating a steering committee for this study and will have representatives from each agency who are able to make policy decisions. The meetings will be on a bi-monthly basis and will help guide staff throughout the study. The first meeting will take place in March after initial background research and data collection has begun.
