Our mission is to meet the water-related needs of the people through dedicated employees, providing high quality water at a reasonable cost. This is a mission that will take us through the next century. With this commitment to the future, management presents the fiscal 2019 Operating and Capital Improvement Budget. The purpose of this budget is to provide customers, potential investors, and other interested parties with reliable financial information about CVWD. Through the process of planning and preparing the budget, CVWD assesses its plans and goals for the foreseeable future. While the adoption of this budget focuses on identifying and estimating the spending of financial resources, it is also a policy document, drives management decisions for 2019, and plays a critical role regarding decisions for the future of CVWD. Budget Summary The fiscal 2019 operating budget amounts to $288.7 million and is supplemented with $121.2 million in capital improvements to provide a total financial program of $409.9 million.

  • February 12, 2020 the Honorable Michael Crapo Chairman, United
    February 12, 2020 The Honorable Michael Crapo Chairman, United States Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs United States Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Senator Crapo, Thank you for seeking comment on the Secure And Fair Enforcement (SAFE) Banking Act. As you know, the Act passed in the House of Representatives by a bipartisan vote of 321-103. We write to urge you to move the House version through Committee. We are entrepreneurs who work in the cannabis industry or work in industries that support the canna- bis industry. And we are writing because of the crucial importance of the passage of a bill that works for the small businesses that are helping this industry flourish in 33 states. We know from our person- al experiences, and those of our customers, suppliers, and employees, that the SAFE Banking Act as passed by the House of Representatives is the right approach to secure banking and payment pro- cessing services. This is not a partisan issue, or a regional issue. We are a bipartisan group, with operations spread across the United States. The ranks of impacted entrepreneurs is only growing. The state-legal canna- bis industry employs more than 200,000 people (with annual growth of 34%) and is estimated to have generated roughly $12 billion in retail sales in 2019. Longer-term projections see annual retail sales in the United States surpassing $28 billion by 2023. The cannabis industry delivered an estimated $40 billion economic impact on the United States in 2019. By 2023, it is estimated that the economic impact could exceed $100 billion.
