The Citizens' Committee on Water & Wastewater is a group of volunteers
working to: develop a full, complete and balanced statement of the City of Rio Vista's funding needs; analyze the City's
Operating and Financial documents; prepare rational explanations of funding needs and of the consequences of a defeat of the
proposed fee increases; and, to inform the Citizens of Rio Vista about the appropriateness of the proposed fee increases and
of "voting" procedures under Proposition 218.
Our Mission and Purpose: To inform on and contribute to solutions of our City's
fiscal problems. To provide beneficial recommendations to City Council and Staff about these problems and potential solutions.
This Site was
last updated on June 29, 2009 at 4:26 PM. The proposed increases
in Wastewater Rates for the Northwest
and Beach Drive Systems have survived
the Protest Ballot Procedures of Proposition
218 [for more details see “After
Recount, Beach Sewer Plant Rate Increases Pass”
at http://riovistaadvocates.com]. When City Council Reconvenes their Special Council Meeting on Tuesday, June 30th at 5:30 PM, they will consider the approval of an Urgency Ordinance permitting these new rates to take effect immediately. The
Citizens’ Committee will be redirecting its
efforts to other potentially beneficial contributions
to improved City governance. The CCww will be discontinuing this Web Site in early July. We hope this Site has been of value to you over its 14 months of operation.
