About this Petition Petition Letter Petition Updates

The Water Department wants to spend a half million dollars on a permitting process for a desal project that hasn't even been approved. We think that's putting the cart before the horse since the draft Environmental Impact Report is far from finished, not reviewed, and not certified.

Dear City Council Members, I urge you not to authorize another $480,000 expenditure for a consultant to begin the permitting process for a desalination plant. The Environmental Impact Report is not complete. Nor has the City Council approved the project. Please do not spend this money unless and until both the EIR and the project are approved.
