Major Water Main Break Successfully Repaired in Arnold: A significant water main break occurred on Mustang Road at midnight on Monday, February 9th, releasing approximately 5,000 gallons per minute at 250 psi. The incident created a 15-foot deep hole and required 23 hours of continuous work by crews in challenging conditions. Despite the severity, the break caused minimal damage as water drained into a ravine, and only 25 homes (mostly vacant) lost service during repairs.
Board Approves Mid-Year Budget Review with Revenue/Expense Adjustments: The Board adopted the fiscal year 2025-26 mid-year operating budget amendments based on projections showing total revenues modestly above budget and expenditures projected to come in under budget before amendments. Key drivers include $1 million in salary savings from vacancies, offset by overages in power costs ($300,000), chemicals ($110,000), and professional services ($194,000). The district is within 1-2% of budget targets overall.
