RECOMMENDED ACTION:
The Director of Utilities reconmends that Council support Proposition 9 on the
June 1982 ballot by adopting Resolution lo fl/
ITEt-1 EXPLANATION:
The citizens of Carlsbad will vote on statewide Proposition 9 (the Peripheral
Canal issue) in the June 1982 election. The Peripheral Canal will provide
State Water Project water to Southern California to replace Colorado River
water which will be lost in 1985. The facilities will transport water around
the Sacramento Delta which is the most economical, efficient and envir~n-
mentally acceptable means of providing this water to Southern California to
ensure our water supply and life style for the future. The voters of
Carlsbad should be urged to support Proposition 9.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The costs of the Peripheral Canal will be borne by those water users who
directly benefit. It will be financed by revenue bonds and the California
Water Fund. It is estimated that costs will add about $10 per year to each
family's cost of water (about 3¢ per water unit). This will increase costs
for usage of water by city facilities by less than $500 per year.
