Date of Board Meeting: September 19, 2007
Subject: Prosser Dam Road Resident Water Concerns
1. WHY THIS MATTER IS BEFORE THE BOARD
The Board of Directors requested that a workshop be presented to discuss the water
issues related to the 5 golf courses in our service territory, current development and the
water supply sources currently serving the District.
2. HISTORY
The residents of the Prosser Dam Road area have attended previous Board Meetings
and have expressed concerns about their well levels, due to a few residents' wells
running dry and a few other residents experiencing problems.
The Board directed staff to review the problems that have arisen to see if there is a
correlation between these problems and the development the area has experienced with
regards to large subdivision development and golf courses.
3. NEW INFORMATION
Staff will present information on the water system, golf course locations and water
sources. Staff will also discuss the TDPUD Water System Master Plan and the Martis
Valley Groundwater Studies.
David Carlson of Aqua Hydrogeologic Consulting has compiled data from the State of
California, information District staff has collected in the field and existing geologic survey
information. He has prepared a computer model that he will present to the Board at the
September 19th meeting.
4. RECOMMENDATION
