WHERE WE STARTED
The Marana Water Department began in 1997. Water has always been an integral part of the Town of Marana's history. One of the factors for incorporation in 1977 was to protect water rights of those living in the area at the time.
In 1997, there were approximately 500 water customers. We now have over 8,200 and are growing. The seven water systems covering both the north and south parts of Marana are managed and maintained by a strong staff of 35. These dedicated water professionals can provide information on water quality, rates and fees, engineering, water resources, water production and distribution, water conservation, and water reclamation.
In 2010, the department put together a Potable Water Master Plan. This plan is used to project the infrastructure and water resource needs as the department grows. The plan can be found here.
