How to we keep water affordable? One Tri-Counties city grappling with that issue wants to hear from its residents about the issue.
The City of Santa Barbara is hosting a water affordability workshop this week.
City officials say the cost issue has become more complex, with factors like aging infrastructure, regulations, inflation, extreme weather events and climate change. They say a survey shows residents are concerned about affordability, conservation, and equitable access.
The workshop will take place at 5:30 p.m. Thursday, at Santa Barbara’s Westside Neighborhood Center.
