Tehama County approves emergency well resolution
The Tehama County Board of Supervisors approved an emergency resolution Tuesday that would allow residents with dry wells to purchase water directly from the county. Though not in the original agenda for the meeting, Chief Administrative Officer Bill Goodwin added the item as an addendum, which consisted of a presentation on why the resolution would be necessary. County administration has been looking at different wells within its jurisdiction to obtain the water from. Initially, the county looked toward the well at Ridgeway Park but discovered the water was non-potable and for irrigation only.
