Board chair Tony Estremera said the increases will help pay for additional emergency water needed to meet the demand of residents and keep groundwater at healthy levels. It will also allow our community to prepare for droughts and other natural disasters by bolstering our water conservation programs, expanding the use of recycled water and starting work on the Anderson Dam Seismic Retrofit Project, which will protect public safety and increase water storage capacity in the county, Estremera said.
The rate increase will also be used to fund an environmental impact report for the $2.5 billion Pacheco Reservoir Expansion Project an aspect that has been met with opposition from San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo and environmental group the Sierra Club.
