Water district boards often aren’t a top concern for most voters, but the entities wield power over your bills and the amount and quality of water coming out of your tap or sprinkler. There are a few competitive races for seats on area boards of directors in this November’s election. … The Coachella Valley Water District, founded by farmers more than a century ago and who have long dominated the the board, now serves more customers than any other water district in the valley, including about 110,000 homes and businesses, about 1,000 agricultural accounts, and many of the valley’s 100-plus thirsty golf courses. Two seats are up for election on the Coachella Valley Water District Board: Division 2 and Division 4.
