Tulare County staff provided the commission with a drought update on Oct. 31, reporting that well permit applications are trending downward from previous years and that commissioners’ request for a map was fulfilled.

She added commissioners could see there was “not really much of a pattern on the well permit applications.”

The presentation was brief and staff invited questions; commissioners made no substantive policy changes or motions at the meeting. The drought update was informational and closed with staff offering to answer follow‑up questions in future meetings or via staff reports.
