Due to above average precipitation in our area for the winter of 2015-16, water supply conditions in Lake Sonoma and Lake Mendocino are at capacity.

An Implementation Plan was created on September 21, 2004, by Resolution No. 26069, which outlines the uses and purposes for which the special tax revenues may be used over time.
