District presents 2025 Urban Water Management Plan; Lake Arrowhead withdrawals remain capped
Summary
The Lake Arrowhead Community Services District reviewed its 2025 Urban Water Management Plan, citing a roughly 12% reduction in water loss since 2021 and noting Lake Arrowhead withdrawals have been limited to 1,566 acre-feet annually since 2006. The plan outlines supply diversification and Level 2 shortage measures for multiple dry-year scenarios.
The Lake Arrowhead Community Services District Board heard an overview of the 2025 Urban Water Management Plan on May 26, 2026. General Manager Ryan Gross told the Board the District has reduced water loss by about 12% since 2021 through pipeline replacements and leak-detection work and that long-term demand and reliance on Lake Arrowhead have fallen over the past 30 years.
Gross emphasized supply diversification as a central strategy. He noted the State Water Resources Control Board has limited Lake Arrowhead withdrawals to 1,566 acre-feet annually since 2006 and described how the plan models reliability under normal and multiple dry-year conditions, along with the District's Water Shortage Contingency Plan now at Level 2 restrictions. The plan also summarizes conservation and demand-management programs the District will continue to deploy.
The workshop included historical context and operational measures the District will rely on to maintain service while meeting state reporting and shortage-contingency obligations. No formal action was required; the presentation was accepted for inclusion in the District's five-year plan cycle.
