Description

How long will the California drought last? Rainfall in ten of the last fourteen years has been less than recent averages, raising the question of whether this is just the beginning of a new normal. That possibility is starting to sink in.

Earlier this year the state legislature surprised everyone by mustering an overwhelmingly bipartisan vote in favor of a $8 billion water bond now on the November ballot. Join water legislators from both sides of the aisle for a discussion of the drought, the election and what lies ahead for water in our parched state.

John Coleman, President, Association of California Water Agencies
California Assemblyman Anthony Rendon, Chair, State Water, Parks and Wildlife Committee (D-Lakewood)

Location: Lafayette Library, 3491 Mt. Diablo Blvd., Lafayette
