Help Stop A Rancho California Water District Job-Killing Proposal


A recent article in the North County Times by Rancho California Water District Vice President John E. Hoagland entitled “What part of ‘water crisis’ escapes understanding?” In the article, Hoagland calls for a proposal that would enact a building moratorium on commercial and residential property throughout the Rancho California Water District’s service area.

 

We feel this is unnecessary and will actually continue to do more harm than good by discouraging new businesses to locate in our region. We have asked Vice President Hoagland to reconsider his anti-job creating proposal.

Water rationing and conservation is very important to us. We have supported various pieces of legislation calling for such conservation and most recently urged the Governor and State Legislature to enact timely solutions to California’s ongoing water crisis. A building moratorium does nothing to fix the water crisis. It only adds injury to insult to an already challenged regional economic.

 

Please submit your letter asking for the reconsideration of this job killing proposal at a time when job-creation must be a top priority with our elected officials.
