“Each year we are more prepared and knowledgeable, and our systems get a little better.”
Five water resiliency projects will be highest priority following a Board of Supervisors’ vote.
“In the long term, it really is just part of a much bigger cycle that we need to be prepared for,” said the Mendocino County Resource Conservation District’s water manager.
“Visitors in search of endless hot showers would be better served elsewhere,” a supervisor said, “but most of the people who visit our county are with us to enjoy the vast unspoiled landscapes, small town culture and peace.”
Mendocino County water needs “are knocking on the door yesterday,” but the board is divided on the best approach.
