The FY27 Board Work Plan remains a draft. Staff presented priorities spanning water supply, flood protection, environmental stewardship, governance and business management. Because the fiscal year is already underway, the plan will cover a shortened period. The Board Policy and Monitoring Committee (BPMC) is expected to review directors’ feedback with staff in November. A revised plan is expected to return to the full board after committee review, with timing dependent on progress.
Valley Water plans to update its conservation strategy. Staff is preparing to hire a consultant to update the water conservation strategic plan, an effort that could take up to two years. Directors discussed measurable goals and the costs and benefits of conservation programs. Staff proposed a work-plan priority for joint initiatives with cities, the county and water retailers, including expanded cost-sharing and applicable water-efficiency measures. No new water-use requirements were adopted.
