Organized
in 1916, the Carmichael Water District is an irrigation
district located in the central portion of Sacramento
County, northeast of the City of Sacramento and north
of the lower American River. The area served by the District
encompasses approximately eight square miles and serves
a population of approximately 40,000. The District is
predominately residential in character, with interspersed
commercial areas.
The
District is governed by a five member Board of Directors.
Each Director represents his/her division and the ratepayers
as a whole. The Directors are elected by the customers
of the District and serve four year staggered terms.
The District currently
employs 32 employees with the responsibility of providing
administration, engineering, field operations, maintenance
services, conservation and public education services to
service the District's approximate 12,000 connections.
District customers receive approximately 70-80 percent
of their water from the American River and 20-30 percent
from District groundwater wells. With the District's microfiltration
water treatment plant, which uses the latest water purification
technology, customers can be assured that their water
is high quality. |
