The Plan linked below, was developed with the idea of having higher expenditure years alternating with lower expenditure years to reduce the pressure on rates to support the District needed infrastructure improvements.

As part of the Fiscal Year 2018-2019 Budget developed and the rate design for FY 2018-2019 through FY 2022-2023, the Board of Directors determined that only $700,000 would be allocated to Water CIP in FY 2018-2019 and that the Rate Model should only support $400,000 per year in the following 9- years of the 10- year program.

While recognizing the need for a more robust CIP budget, the Board of Directors felt obligated to balance that need with the pressures that funding such a program would have on a significant portion of the District's ratepayers.

These decisions will result in priority determinations each year for the most pressing Capital Project requirements of the District.
