Two water board directors respond to criticism from city, Golden Hills
Contentious comments by representatives of the city of Tehachapi and Golden Hills Community Services District have been made at meetings of the local water board for a number of months. Generally, board members don’t respond. But at the July 20 meeting of the Board of Directors of Tehachapi-Cummings County Water District, some directors didn’t hold back. … In June, Golden Hills and the city told directors they believe 75 percent of all water imported from the State Water Project by the local water district should be allocated on a first priority basis to M&I use, presumably leaving 25 percent of the water for agriculture.
