Blog: Investing in our Headwaters: Mountain Counties Support Proposition 3

Proposition 3, the “Water Supply and Water Quality Act of 2018,” is a water bond initiative that will appear on the November 2018 statewide California ballot. Proposition 3 would invest 8.877 billion dollars funding projects to enhance water supply and water quality, watershed restoration, fish & wildlife habitat, water infrastructure, groundwater sustainability, and storage. That all sounds good, doesn’t it? But this is California, and some say, “Not another water bond!” Some may believe that it is just another means for state politicians to get their hands on more money for the general fund to squander away on programs other than water. “Send the money to Sacramento, never to return,” comes to mind here in the Mountain Counties region.
