1996 - 2001 UTILITY SERVICE GOALS
The goal of the Utility Element is to provide adequate infrastructure to serve the needs of the
Princeton community without adversely affecting the environment or quality of life in
Princeton. Utility expansion should be based upon changing demands and environmental
considerations. The location of new utilities or expanded facilities should guide growth to
appropriate areas of the community.
I. Provide an adequate level of utility service, at a reasonable cost, to serve the
present and projected future population of the Princeton Community.
II. Facilitate the implementation of other elements of the Master Plan through
proper utility service planning.
III. Ensure that utility service does not have a negative impact upon the
environment or quality of life within the Princeton Community.
IV. Provide for the Princeton community's fair share of regional utilities but
recognize that other communities should bear their fair share as well.
V. Develop a regional master plan for drainage to address flooding in built-up areas as well as to ensure that Lake Carnegie is protected from polluted storm
water run-off.
