2022 CAWCD Board Election Voter Guide
As we prepare to cast our votes this November, one race you will see included on your ballot that will impact you and one of our key water supplies is the election of five new members to the Central Arizona Water Conservation District (CAWCD) Board of Directors. We know most voters are unfamiliar with this election and the critical role of the CAWCD Board in Arizona water.
To raise awareness about this important election, AMWUA partnered with the Arizona State University (ASU) Kyl Center for Water Policy and the Arizona Hydrological Society (AHS) to create the 2022 Maricopa County CAWCD Board Election Voter Education Guide .
