Function Overview

The General Administration Department provides overall District policy development and implementation, financial and capital planning, and strategies to accomplish the District’s Mission and Board of Directors’ priorities. This Department coordinates and administers all District functions and activities, including general agency matters, regulatory compliance, employee recognition, District memberships, public information, and water conservation, as well as, specific administration of the Board of Director’s business, legal services, and election processes

Long-Term Goals

 

As always, it is the long-term goal of the General Administration Department to implement the policies of the Board of Directors, maintain an efficient and cost effective organization, effectively plan and finance the Capital Replacement and Improvement Program to ensure preserve local financial resources for local purposes, advocate and protect appropriate wholesale revenue and rate equity for all customer classes, with all efforts aimed toward fulfilling the District’s mission to “Ensure Customer Satisfaction Through Quality Service at the Lowest Possible Cost,” and at all times, “Meets” or “Exceeds” customer expectations.

Also, in this era of declining agricultural activity and related water sales revenues and increased regulatory compliance, the General Administration Department leads ongoing efforts to operate the water and wastewater systems serving the Valley Center Community in the most cost-effective manner through implementing internal efficiencies and external functional consolidations with nearby water agencies
