Scottsdale Water partnered with the Arizona Water Association Oct. 4  to welcome a group of state legislators on a tour of the Scottsdale Water campus, including an up-close look at the city’s Advanced Water Treatment Facility.

Visiting officials included:

• House Majority Leader Leo Biasiucci
• Representative Alexander Kolodin
• Representative Keith Seaman
• Representative Austin Smith
• Representative Stephanie Stahl Hamilton

The group heard updates from mayor David D. Ortega, Nashita Naureen with Arizona Water and Scottsdale Water Executive Director Brian Biesemeyer.

“It was a pleasure to greet Arizona state legislators who share our commitment to addressing water challenges in Arizona,”   Ortega said. “Scottsdale Water professionals guided the tour of the facilities, a model for other cities in maximizing water resources through efficient and innovative planning and operations.”
