The City of White Rock is holding a public information meeting this month regarding the future of the city's water utility.

The meeting, set to take place June 16 at 5:30 p.m. at the White Rock Community Centre (15154 Russell Ave.), is to allow residents to "learn more about the options currently available to the city in acquiring the public utility," a news release issued Tuesday afternoon said.

The city first announced its intentions to take over from the current owner of White Rock's water utility, Edmonton-based Epcor, in March 2013, and has been negotiating its purchase ever since.
