Key Staff
SMWD was formed in 1964 as a landowner district (Section 35306 of the California Water Code) by a group of ranchers who wanted to create a reliable source of water for their cattle. As development occurred within the district’s boundaries, SMWD was reorganized in 1995 as a registered voter California Water District (California Water District legislation is Section 34000 of the California Water Code).
SMWD’s primary focus as a special district is to provide high-quality potable water, sewage collection and treatment, production and delivery of tertiary-treated recycled water, and urban runoff treatment. Day-to-day operations are supervised by the General Manager and implemented by staff.
