What is the true value of water? Water is vital for all life, but also essential for disease protection, sanitation, fire suppression, economic development, and a host of other factors required by human society. The collection, treatment, and distribution of water is costly and requires ongoing investment, but the unsustainable use of water may ultimately cost even more.

Commission Priorities

The Commission works with partners to advance solutions to problems that have plagued the District for many years: susceptibility to drought, deteriorating water quality, lack of capacity to support an increasing population, and outdated management practices that negatively impact recreation, fisheries, and ecological functions.

​In response to these problems, the Commission has identified the following priorities (in no particular order):
  • Ensuring sustainable, safe drinking water supplies for residents living in District communities
  • Restoring and protecting water quality in the District's many lakes and rivers
  • Providing necessary flow and connectivity to ensure ecosystem function and habitat quality for freshwater species
  • Valuing all economic impacts associated with problems and solutions, including valuing ecosystem services
  • Encouraging strategic collaboration among regional stakeholders to ensure win-win solutions are sustainable
  • Providing viable solutions and financing plans to realize solutions to problems in the District
