General
NYWD is a publicly owned water utility (a form of local government called a “special district”) regulated by the State of California Department of Public Health and State Water Code laws. The District is governed by a five-member Board of Directors. Each Director is elected by the voters within the division of the District they represent for a four-year term.
The Board meets in regular session at 5:30pm the fourth Thursday of each month (except when the meeting date falls on a holiday.) The public is invited to attend meetings and encouraged to provide input. Meeting dates, agendas and packets can be found at Board Meetings.
