Water supply master plan
The City has updated its 2014 Water Supply Master Plan (the Master Plan) to review our drinking water sources and identify priorities for our water supply, including sustainable municipal water supply options, from now until 2051.
The Master Plan provides short-, mid- and long-term water supply options to ensure we can continue to meet the demands of Guelph’s growing population. Existing and new water supply options were investigated --including new groundwater and surface water sources in and outside of Guelph. Through analysis and evaluation of alternative projects, and input from the public, Indigenous Peoples, a Community Liaison Group, and agency and municipality consultation, the recommended preferred water supply alternatives were selected and refined, and next steps were identified for how the City may proceed with future water supply projects.
