Starting Wednesday, residents in much of Southern California will have to limit how much water they use.
The Metropolitan Water District declared a water shortage emergency in April and took the unprecedented action of limiting outdoor watering for millions of residents in Los Angeles, Ventura and San Bernadino counties.
According to the San Diego Water Authority, while the rest of the state is placing restrictions on water usage, our county does not have to worry. But it is those costs that are pushing Rainbow Municipal Water District and Fallbrook Public Utility to look elsewhere. Rainbow, along with Fallbrook are looking to move their business to the Eastern Municipal Water District where Kennedy says both Rainbow and Fallbrook would be given the same water, yet ratepayers would save about $8 million a year.
Kennedy says while the efforts to conserve and preserve our water supply is great, they wish it was more affordable.

That’s prompted two largely agricultural irrigation districts in the region to try to break away from the regional water supplier saying they can purchase cheaper water elsewhere. Experts say that would push costs up even more as the state sinks deeper into drought.
