The remainder of the allocation from the San Benito County Water District shall be allocated to the various parcels within CSA 31.
(B) CSA 31 allocation of domestic water shall be determined in the county’s sole discretion, based on factors such as the time of year, changes in the local water table, estimates regarding the amount of water that the CSA 31 well can produce over a sustained period, and the domestic water needs of residents within CSA 31. The county shall consult with the Board of Directors of the Stonegate Homeowners Association prior to determining any allocations or making any change in allocation.
(C) A month shall be defined as the first day of the calendar month to the last day of a calendar month.
(D) If a water reading is taken after the last day of a calendar month, the water usage for the month shall be determined by actual usage, divided by the number of days since the last reading, multiplied by the number of days in the calendar month for which the usage is being determined.
(E) Any owner or resident may use additional water received from other sources, such as water that is delivered to an on-site water storage tank.
(F) The water allocation for July 2014 shall be prorated so that it reflects the allocation that each parcel may use from July 8, 2014 through July 31, 2014.
(G) No person shall install, maintain, or allow to be installed or maintained, any connection, pipe, or hose between the domestic and agricultural water supply pipelines on any residential parcel within CSA 31.
