Blah, blah, blah. “I have, I will, I have”, etc. I get that you are owned and paid for by the local hierarchy. After all, they paid for your election didn’t they?
The Senate Vote is based on a lot of things, one of them being the need to control everything of value in California. Why? Because value equals money, and control equals power.
As a “supposed” Republican conservative, you should have been fighting tooth and nail against remote control of this valley’s water resources. Instead, you chose to suck up to the same people who pimped you into the legislature – Newhall Land and Framing, and their subsequent owners, as well as the entrenched clicque running the CLWA.
Hey Scott; you may be a nice guy who is just going along to get along as an elected official.
But you are sticking a big one into the apertures of most current property owners and members of existing water agencies in this town.
The State has issued requirements to manage water; and some of those indeed require water management at a local level. However, giving absolute control of all water – runoff, stream bed, and well water owned by private persons to a semi-state agency that will not only control that water but charge for “over use” is simply the equivalent of governmental ownership.
Please state in public to your voters and represented citizens that you believe that the State and it’s minion agencies should decide what they can and cannot pump from their personally owned wells.
Because if you disagree with that, then you are already on the wrong side of the argument.
So the 2,200 + people living in Bouquet Canyon who owe their own now dry wells are going to “charged” for over use? You are kidding Right?? The “reclaimed” water and all other water will be “supplied ” to the 21,000 households at the new Newhall Ranch out on highway 126. Wait does that mean the current water rate payers will be “fined” for over-use AFTER rationing what water we have?? …”Creating a modern and transparent water district” Yep makes sense to a mole who has its head stuck in dirt or in SOMEONES back pocket… We are dumber than they thought.
