TCID announced that water allocations in the District are being increased from 80% to 90%. The District made this decision after Lahontan Reservoir levels continued to rise. Water users can expect to see the adjustment reflected on their next water card.
TCID also announced that due to amendments in A.B. 226, the District now has greater taxing ability. A.B. 226 was signed by the Governor and will take effect on July 1, 2009. Under the new law, the District can now assess residents up to $5.00 per acre. The District decided to increase their assessments from $1.50 per acre or home lot to $3.00 beginning in 2010. This is a 100% increase! According to the District these funds will go towards canal rehabilitation and upgrade activities.
