Mayor Harding announced to the City Council last night that the city has recently received approval from the Dept. of Health to add 323 additional connections to the Yelm Water System.

Bottom line:
The water savings from a 50% mandatory irrigation cutback on Yelm businesses has been used to obtain the ability to issue more home permits to hook-up to the Yelm water system.

Ed. Note:
A special thanks to the Yelm business owners for providing the water necessary for Yelm to expand.

Question:
How do you Yelm business owners feel about your water being used to approve more home building here?
Hmmm…
