Body

 

SUMMARY:

The IMC met on December 3, 2025, to begin its FY25 Program review process and elected a Chair and Vice-Chair. The IMC set up subcommittees to review the Safe, Clean Water Program progress by reviewing Valley Water’s Safe, Clean Water Program Annual report for FY25. The IMC set up subcommittees for priorities A and C, B, D, E, and F. It also established a Finance Subcommittee to review program-level financial information contained in “Appendix A: Financial Information” and “Appendix B: Inflation Assumptions”.

 

The six subcommittees met with Valley Water staff from January 5 to 9, 2026. Each subcommittee elected a Chair, heard presentations by staff, asked questions, and held discussions. The subcommittee chairs presented their findings to the full IMC on January 29, 2026.

IMC members agreed that the subcommittee chairs would draft the IMC report to the Board under the direction of IMC Chair, who delegated this responsibility to the Vice-Chair. The report was drafted on January 30, 2026. The Draft IMC Annual Report Cover Letter (Attachment 1), the Draft Annual Report (Attachment 2), and the Draft Notes for Staff for Future Program Annual Reports (Attachment 3) are presented to the full IMC for review and finalization.

Additionally, the IMC report drafting group also noted the issue raised by an IMC member regarding the comparative risks posed by encampments versus illegal dumping to waterways, as well as the associated project costs and requested staff to provide additional information. The additional information is provided in the Supplemental Response (Attachment 4).
