The point has been set forth that it is improper to use water supply as a means of placing restrictions on land development, and that water agency boards should not involve themselves in water planning but should restrict themselves to policy matters. The role of the waterworks engineer is no less important now than in the past. More involvement by the general public in the planning process makes the waterworks engineer's job more complicated but not less important. The interaction between water agency boards and engineers is weighed.
