Orange County Hopeful for Reservoir Land Bank Law
County Attorney Peter G. Striphas testified that Orange County needs a special state law to land-bank for future reservoir sites without forming water districts. The plan faces legal and cost hurdles as land purchases total about 2.6 million, with only 700,000 remaining from an original 5 million authorization. Metcalf and Eddy warned the county may require up to 68 million to meet water needs, suggesting use of tax base funds.
