Turnout No. 5 Water Pipeline Project
The city is building a 1.25-mile pipeline to connect Victorville's water system to the Mojave Water Agency's regional storage and recovery network. This helps secure supplemental water supplies and assists in blending down naturally occurring arsenic.
1MG SCLA Reclaimed Water Reservoir 2 Project
To support growing industrial needs around the airport, the water board approved building a new 1-million-gallon reclaimed water storage tank and upgrading electrical lines. The project replaces an aging, problematic rubber-lined pond.
Water Rate Study and Proposed 4% Annual Rate Increase
The budget assumes year-four rate hikes of 3% for sewer, 5% for solid waste, and a 4% water increase under the new five-year rate plan, plus an 18% street lighting charge increase driven by Edison's rising costs.
