Directors can be paid a per diem of $150 for each day they perform duties for the district, in an amount not to exceed $7,200 per year.
When do you have to file to run for the board?
For water district elections, there is no first day to file. However, in order to have your name appear on the May 7, 2016 ballot, you must file by no later than February 19, 2016 at 5:00 p.m.
