City Officials to Attend Water Zone Hearings
Deputy City Attorney Dewey Strickle and Brennan S. Thomas, Water Department general manager, will testify before a Senate committee next week on two bills creating tax funded water zones to import water into underground basins. The measures amend the Los Angeles County Flood Control Act and include a clause exempting areas served by imported or reclaimed water from zoning, a change Strickle says would prevent about half of Long Beach from being zoned and help equalize zone taxes. The proposed rate would be capped at 5 cents per $100 valuation, with an overall rate not exceeding 20 cents, aiming to replenish part of the 1.624 billion gallon overdraft from underground sources south of the San Gabriel Mountains.
