SACRAMENTO LOCAL AGENCY FORMATION COMMISSION (LAFCO) RESOLUTION OF INTENT TO INITIATE DISSOLUTION OF DPMWD

​​​​On May 2, 2024, the Commission approved a resolution of intent to initiate dissolution with a remediation period of twelve-months to allow the district time to address the deficiencies that were highlighted in the Sacramento Grand Jury and Municipal Service Review - Addendum​ (approved during the same hearing). The Del Paso Manor Water District Board of Directors are looking at all options including voluntary consolidation with Sacramento Suburban Water District (SSWD). 

Key Points: 

  • ​Numerous infrastructure deficiencies, financing limitations and fire flow issues were identified. 
  • Cost for improvements would be expensive to customers. 
  • Potential grants available by the State may cover some or all of the cost of the infrastructure replacement and improvements without the need of ratepayers financing those costs.​
  • District has been given 12-months to address deficiencies.
