The Rocky Mountain News is patting Aurora on the back for getting serious about cooperation with the farming communities where they are buying water [October 10, 2005, "Aurora takes control of water destiny"]. They write, "The recent drought concentrated minds on the need to find new ways to manage scarce and precious water in Colorado's semi- arid climate. More and more, we hear the term 'water sharing' to describe policies that allow water to be diverted from agricultural use, especially in times of shortage, while ensuring that rural communities can continue to prosper."
