Lawmakers propose $4.5B flood protection bond measure
CHICO, Calif. — Californians could be voting on a major flood protection bond next November.
State lawmakers are pushing a $4.5 billion bond measure which would help fund water infrastructure projects across the state. The bill's author, San Joaquin Valley Democratic Assemblymember Carlos Villapudua, said the language is not yet set in stone, but that funds from the bond would go to the Department of Water Resources (DWR).
