Passing Huge Debt to Our Kids for Mismanaged Water Projects

Mr. Robert Cerruti's July 3 letter to the editor criticized the Santa Clara Valley Water District in handling the debt payoff for the San Luis Reservoir project. It brought water to Santa Clara County in 1987 and supplies the three Llagas sub-basin percolation ponds in Morgan Hill. Cerruti wrote the project was built at a cost of $247.8 million and we now owe an additional $80 million on top of the original capital cost. He spoke about money the water district set aside for repayment and wanted to know where the money went. Specifically, he argued that annual payments should have been made starting in 1987 to pay down the capital cost and the interest.
