Front with Sara Parker Pauley _ Years ago, when traveling through eastern Iowa, I was tempted by the signs on the road directing me to the farm where Field of Dreams was filmed. It has since been developed, but at the time was a simple baseball diamond — not much else. Still, I threw a few pitches, snapped some photos, and muttered the iconic line from the film, “If you build it, he will come.” I thought of that trip recently when touring a western 1 Missouri conservation area in one of our nine priority geographies, the Osage Grasslands, with department staff. 1 | Busch We stood on a high vista overlooking a beautiful landscape Conservation 2 of rolling hills that was once part of a broader network of Area by path_ less_traveled_19, prairies spanning nearly one-third of our state.

  • 3. Community Facilities and Services
    Appendix A 3. Community Facilities Background Information and Services INTRODUCTION Community facilities and services are required to support the functions of the community and any potential new development. These include such necessities as utilities, public safety, parks and recreation, and general governmental services. These services are supplied by County Government, municipalities, special districts, and utilities in order to enhance the overall quality of life. The rapid growth of St. Charles County has been paralleled by increased demand for public facilities and services. The timely provision of these is a critical part in making the county an attractive place for businesses and residents alike. This chapter reviews the service capabilities of water and sanitary sewer service providers, the service areas for various utilities, fire protection and emergency medical service (EMS) agencies, law enforcement, park and recreational opportunities, and County health services. Social service organizations operating within the county are also reviewed, including the services provided by these agencies, the populations served, and the future services to be offered. WATER SERVICE The water service area map depicts the water service areas of various municipalities, Missouri American Water Company, and Public Water Supply District No. 2 (PWSD2) of St. Charles County. The largest geographical service area is that of Public Water Supply District No. 2 covering sections of both St. Charles and Warren Counties. This district provides service in St. Charles County generally south of Interstate 70 from the area along Route K west to the Warren County line, and south and east to the Missouri River. The district provides service to the cities of Foristell, Lake Saint Louis, New Melle, and Augusta, and portions of the cities of Dardenne Prairie, O’Fallon and Weldon Spring.
