WHEREX3, it has come to the attention of the Board of Directors of Carlsbad Municipal Water District that certain agencies within the San Diego County Water Authority are opposing the action of the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California in establishing an agricultural and domestic water rate and; WHEREAS, it can be amply demonstrated that agriculture cannot pay as much for -water as domestic users and that if agriculture is going to survive in San Diego County, water rates competitive with water rates in other counties must be maintained, and that any substantial raising of charges for water u9ed for agriculture purposes will substantially injure the economy of those districts which are chiefly agricultural in character; and WHEREAS, it is apparent that if a separate rate for agricultural water is not established by Metropolitan, all water users will be required to pay the rate now established for domestic service, and that the raising or abolishment of the agriculture rate will not result in the lowering of the rate charged for domestic water by Metropolitan. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that this Board goes on record as favoring the action of Metropolitan, and that said action is sound and econom cally justified; that any increase in the agricultural rate for water will substantially injure the economy of those areas within the Metropolitan Water District which are agricultural in character. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Secretary of the District forward a copy of thk resolution to the following: Rainbow Municipal Water District San Diego County Water Authority Metropolitan Water District of Southern California.
