Budgets & Financial Reports

At SGCWD, we understand the importance of fiscal responsibility and the role it plays in our ability to continue providing dependable, high-quality water. We take planning seriously, including maintaining and upgrading our water system components and balancing costs of service with water rates.

As a special district, we legally cannot make a profit and can only charge for the actual cost of providing water.

Urban Water Management Plan

SGCWD, like other water providers, is required by the state to develop an Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) and update it every five years. SGCWD most recently updated its plan in 2020.

According to the California Department of Water Resources (DWR), UWMPs for urban water supplies such as SGCWD must do the following:
