Besides local races, state races and propositions, some Ventura County voters are voting on whether or not to approve a $350 million water bond this election.  Known as Measure D, the United Water Conservation District is asking county voters within its service area to approve the bond to help fund three capital improvements projects it says are required. The bond, if passed, would cost property owners in the district’s service area approximately $24 per $100,000 of assessed value annually. United Water says the bond would run 30 years, from 2028 through 2057. It would help fund improvements to the Santa Felicia Dam, Freeman Diversion, and Extraction Barrier and Brackish Water Treatment. … [T]he dam is classified as an extremely high hazard dam by the state due to the high population amount below the dam.
