[GPSCC-chat] Drought and Water District Elections

[Wes Rolley]

It seems that you can't ever keep up with all of the news.  I remember 
taking part in a long range plan public input session for the Water 
District.   Everyone thought that water banking at Semitropic Water Bank 
was a great idea.   Now,  the Santa Clara Valley Water District has 
enough water there to get it through this 4th year of our drought, but 
they can't get at it.  The whole system falls apart when there is not 
enough water flowing through the system to allow necessary swaps to take 
place.  See this article in the Mercury News:

Note: one of the commenters links to the site of a candidate for 
Director of the Santa Clara Valley Water District.

Now, with chances for a strong El Nino disappearing, how might we deal 
with year 5 of a drought?
