What's New


The District Code is now online.


Annexation to District Requested

The District has been approached by a group of homeowners from the Annexation Area (Draft)Applegate area west of the freeway and south of the current service area expressing interest in a service area extension (annexation) by the District to include their parcels.

A Status page has been added to this site. Due to the lengthy nature of the annexation process, and the prospective costs and risks involved, the District will provide basic status information on the Applegate Annexation page of this site.
