Last month the Arizona Legislature passed the much-needed Colorado River drought plan. However, questions remain about water rights as this historic pact faces choppy waters.

The Central Arizona chapter of CCIM, commercial real estate’s global standard for professional achievement, will present a discussion on Arizona’s water rights on Wednesday, March 6, at the Esplanade E-Center, 2501 E.
