The board unanimously approved a bare-minimum compliance budget of approximately $1,095,446 for the upcoming fiscal year. This is a reduction from the previously presented ~$1.1M+ draft, primarily because costs for the Domestic Well Impact Mitigation Program were removed—that program continues under a DWR grant administered by the County of San Luis Obispo. The board and staff emphasized this is a "keep the lights on" budget focused strictly on SGMA compliance and administration, not on-the-ground management actions.
