SUMMARY: Attached
as Exhibit 6-A is the draft MPWMD Annual Report
for 2024. The District’s enabling legislation requires
production of an annual written report of the activities of the District in the
protection and augmentation of water supplies of the District. The legislation
further requires that a public hearing be held each year regarding the contents
of the report before it is finalized.
In addition to posting the report
on the website and distributing it via the email newsletter, it is recommended
that the Board approve distribution of the report to the public through the
Monterey County Weekly as an insert in its newspaper in late March or early
April. The printing costs for the report (20,100 copies) will be $6,695 (plus
tax of approximately $700) and insertion and distribution by Monterey County
Weekly will be $2,340 for a total of $9,735. Funds are budgeted in the current
budget for this expenditure. For an
additional $1,800 The Weekly will host the District’s
annual report for a year and include a newsletter ad highlighting the report
once a quarter. They can essentially re-distribute the annual report for twelve
months.
RECOMMENDATION: The Board should conduct a public hearing and adopt the proposed
2024 MPWMD Annual Report with any changes or edits as recommended. The Board
should also authorize the distribution of the report as recommended.
