H.R. No. 1744 |
|
||
WHEREAS, The Central Texas Highland Lakes are irreplaceable | ||
natural resources that supply drinking water to area residents and | ||
serve as an important economic engine in the Lone Star State; and | ||
WHEREAS, Formed in 2011, the Central Texas Water Coalition | ||
(CTWC) is a nonpartisan nonprofit organization that brings together | ||
concerned individuals and groups to constructively address the | ||
water issues of these lakes and the rest of the lower Colorado River | ||
basin; the coalition strives to protect water supplies and water | ||
levels in Central Texas for the benefit of economic development and | ||
human health and safety; and | ||
WHEREAS, The CTWC now boasts a membership of more than 3,000 | ||
Texans from the business community, local government, property | ||
owner associations, and environmental interest groups; these | ||
outstanding volunteers spend countless hours attending meetings, | ||
doing research, participating in outreach programs, and advocating | ||
for water policies; and | ||
WHEREAS, Water management and conservation are even more | ||
important during these times of extreme drought, and the members of | ||
the Central Texas Water Coalition are indeed deserving of | ||
recognition for their dedicated efforts in preserving the Highland | ||
Lakes; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby honor the Central Texas Water Coalition and | ||
commend its members for their commitment to this important cause; | ||
and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for the CTWC as an expression of high regard by the Texas | ||
House of Representatives. | ||
