Correct me if I am wrong

Regarding the supply side, the total city supply is 2,480 Acre-feet of adjudicated basin water rights comprised of 1,974 Acre Feet of 100% city owned deeded adjudicated basin water rights at the end of the year, plus an additional 506 Acre Feet of adjudicated deeded basin water rights in the form of leases for a total annual supply of 2,480 Acre Feet.

Does that 506 acre feet not come from temporary transfers? Can the city really depend on those year after year?

Can't correct this in the slightest.  Well done! If you brought this type of content you'd be a very valuable member of the board and I'd have no issue.

If you can't refute what I posted about the temporary transfer of water rights, then that makes your assumption that Tehachapi has more than enough water to supply Sage and other future growth, simply dead wrong.

Over the past couple of years the City has been purchasing annual water leases from the same person that sold Ciachuski, Strasser and Morris their adjucated rights. This amount is approximately 40% of what of the City required. That person sold all their rights so no longer has any to lease. Now that the water rights are tied to Sage Ranch under the agreement it will be interesting to see what

[shneps]

Just for clarity that 40% was the amount of leased water rights required.
