A. This chapter establishes water management requirements necessary
to accomplish the following:
2. Enable effective water supply planning;
3. Assure reasonable and beneficial use of water;
5. Prevent unreasonable use of water;
6. Prevent unreasonable method of use of water within the CMWD in order
to assure adequate supplies of water to meet the needs of the public;
and
7. Further the public health, safety, and welfare, recognizing that
water is a scarce natural resource that requires careful management
not only in times of drought, but at all times.
B. This chapter establishes regulations to be implemented during times
of declared water shortages, or declared water shortage emergencies.
It establishes 6 levels of drought response actions to be implemented
in times of shortage, with increasing restrictions on water use in
response to worsening drought conditions and decreasing available
supplies.
C. Level 1 condition drought response measures are voluntary and will
be reinforced through local and regional public education and awareness
measures that may be funded in part by, CMWD.
D. During drought response condition Levels 2 through 6, all conservation
measures and water-use restrictions are mandatory and become increasingly
restrictive to attain escalating conservation goals.
E. During a drought response condition Level 2 or higher, the water
conservation measures and water use restrictions established by this
chapter are mandatory and violations are subject to criminal, civil,
and administrative penalties and remedies specified in this chapter
and as provided in this code.

adopted at a regular or special public meeting held in accordance
with State law. The mandatory conservation measures applicable to
Drought Response Level 2, Level 3, Level 4 or Level 5 conditions shall
take effect on the tenth day after the date the response level is
declared. Within five days following the declaration of the response
level, the CMWD shall publish a copy of the resolution in a newspaper
of general circulation used for publication of official notices. If
the CMWD establishes a water allocation, it shall provide notice of
the allocation by including it in the regular billing statement for
the fee or charge or by any other mailing to the address to which
the CMWD customarily mails the billing statement for fees or charges
for on-going water service. Water allocation shall be effective of
the fifth day following the date of mailing or at such later date
as specified in the notice.
C. The existence of a Drought Response Level 6 condition may be declared
in accordance with the procedures specified in California
Water Code
Sections 351 and 352. The mandatory conservation measures applicable
to Drought Response Level 6 conditions shall take effect on the tenth
day after the date the response level is declared. Within five days
following the declaration of the response level, the CMWD shall publish
a copy of the resolution in a newspaper of general circulation used

A. If, due to unique circumstances, a specific requirement of this chapter
would result in undue hardship to a person using agency water or to
property upon which agency water is used, that is disproportionate
to the impacts to CMWD water users generally or to similar property
or classes of water uses, then the person may apply for a variance
to the requirements as provided in this section.
B. The variance may be granted or conditionally granted, only upon a
written finding of the existence of facts demonstrating an undue hardship
to a person using agency water or to property upon which agency water
is used, that is disproportionate to the impacts to CMWD water users
generally or to similar property or classes of water use due to specific
and unique circumstances of the user or the user's property.
Hardship variances shall also be subject to the following requirements:
1. Application. Application for a variance shall be on a form prescribed
by the CMWD General Manager and shall be accompanied by a non-refundable
processing fee in an amount set by resolution of the CMWD Board of
Directors.
2. Supporting Documentation. The application shall be accompanied by
photographs, maps, drawings, and other information, including a written
statement of the applicant.
3. Required Findings for Variance. An application for a variance shall
be denied unless the General Manager finds, based on the information
provided in the application, supporting documents, or such additional
information as may be requested, and on water use information for
the property as shown by the records of the CMWD, all of the following:
a.
That the variance does not constitute a grant of special privilege
inconsistent with the limitations upon other CMWD customers.
b.
That because of special circumstances applicable to the person,
property or its use, the strict application of this chapter would
have a disproportionate impact on the person, property or use that
exceeds the impacts to customers generally.
c.
That the authorizing of such variance will not be of substantial
detriment to adjacent properties, and will not materially affect the
ability of the CMWD to effectuate the purpose of this chapter and
will not be detrimental to the public interest.
d.
That the condition or situation of the subject person, property
or the intended use of the property for which the variance is sought
is not common, recurrent or general in nature.
4. Approval Authority. The General Manager or designee shall exercise
approval authority and act upon any completed application no later
than ten calendar days after submittal. The General Manager or designee
may approve, conditionally approve, or deny the variance. The applicant
requesting the variance shall be promptly notified in writing of the
action taken in response to the application. Unless otherwise specified
at the time a variance is approved, the variance applies to the subject
property during the term of the mandatory drought response level.
5. Appeals to CMWD Executive Manager or designee(s). An applicant may appeal a decision or condition of the General Manager on a variance application to the CMWD Executive Manager or designee(s). An appeal requesting a hearing may only be filed within ten calendar days of the date of the General Manager's written decision. The request shall state the grounds for the appeal. At the appeal hearing, the CMWD Executive Manager or designee(s) shall act as the approval authority and review the appeal de novo by applying the regular variance requirements described in Section
3.12.140(A) and (B)(1)-(4). The decision of the CMWD Executive Manager or designee(s) is final.

the ordinances codified herein, the CMWD shall issue a written notice
of the fact of such violation to the customer.
3. For a third violation by a customer of any provision of this chapter
the CMWD may install a flow-restricting device of one gallon per minute
(1 GPM) capacity for services of up to one and one-half inch size.
CMWD may also install a restricting device of comparatively sized
restrictors for larger services upon a prior determination that the
customer has repeatedly violated the provisions of this chapter regarding
the conservation of water and that such action is reasonably necessary
to assure compliance with this chapter regarding the conservation
of water. In addition, the CMWD may levy an administrative fine of
one hundred dollars for a third violation of this chapter.
4. Two hundred dollars for a fourth violation of any provision of this
chapter within one year.

in the County Jail for not more than thirty days or by a fine not
exceeding one thousand dollars, or by both as provided in
Water Code
Section 377.
E. Willful violations of the mandatory conservation measures and water use restrictions as set forth in Section
