From the transcript
So have you heard— I mean, have you had developers come in and suggest to us? I know there's been one. The wording, we try to be intentional with it to address Commissioner Charbonneau's point of, for most of the city, we want them hooking up to city water. The wording is really aimed at that— those developments across the bay that are potential housing areas that don't have any near connection to city water. That's kind of like the targeted area that we would hope to see these developments, whether or not use the catchment system or not, but like wells in that area.
