Carneros to vote on water study: Assessment would pay for look at bringing in recycled water

Posted by: Maven on April 13, 2009 at 5:52 am

From the Napa Valley Register:

Property owners in Carneros are about to decide if they want to pay for a study to bring recycled water to their corner of southern Napa County. Ballots have gone out to about 260 people who own property in the Los Carneros Water District, asking whether to fund what could be a six-year study of reclaimed water.

Under the proposal, property owners would face an assessment of $15 per acre in the first year of what could be a six-year assessment. The figure for future years will be determined later but cannot exceed $25 per acre per year.

The study would consider whether it makes sense to bring in reclaimed water from either the Napa Sanitation District, which has a supply of reclaimed water bordering the east side of the district, or the Sonoma County Water Agency, which borders it on the west.

Votes must be cast by Tuesday and may be cast at a meeting at Carneros Elementary School Tuesday at 7 p.m.
