SUMMARY: Draft Ordinance No. 198 (Exhibit 7-A) amends the Rule 11 definitions for “new
construction” and “Main California American Water System” and adds definitions
for “Dormitory Bed at Educational Institution” and “Advanced Treated Recycled
Water.” The ordinance also amends Rule 23 for clarity and reorganizes metering
requirements to fall under Mandatory Conditions. Finally
and most importantly, the ordinance codifies language in Rule 24 that was
adopted by the Board through Urgency Ordinance No. 196 in August 2024 that
clarified the second bathroom protocol.
The
Water Demand Committee considered the ordinance on June 5, 2025. The committee
unanimously supported moving the ordinance to the Board.
RECOMMENDATION: The Board
should receive public comment before adopting Ordinance No. 198.
