RWA Board of Directors
Member agencies of the Regional Water Authority are each afforded the opportunity to appoint two representatives to the Board of Directors, either of whom may cast a single vote on behalf of their agency. To facilitate effective communications and decision-making, RWA members are encouraged to appoint one representative from their elected governing body and one representative from executive staff.
The RWA Board meets on the second Thursday of every other month. For information about upcoming (or past) board meetings, please visit events.
