District Notices

Our district publishes all public notices here on the website and sends an email notice to all persons who have requested or agreed to receive them.  The dates and times for our regular board meetings, with proposed agendas, are found in the "Board Meetings" section of this website.

Other notices and general announcements may also be posted on the website, sent to our email list, or posted on our community bulletin board, as appropriate.

All currently scheduled meetings are accessible from the lower portion of the Home Page. 
Meetings of the board are public meetings and all interested persons are invited to attend.

Budget Committee Meetings: 

The Budget Committee meets each spring to consider the budget for each upcoming fiscal year. 

Budget Committee meetings are scheduled to start in April 2026 to establish the budget for the upcoming Fiscal Year 2026-2027, that runs from July 1st to June 30th.

The first committee meeting will include the annual Budget Message from the Budget Officer and also a Public Hearing where public comment will be taken. Input from the voting community is an important part of the budget process and is important to the success of the Otter Rock Water District. Additional Budget Committee meetings will be scheduled as needed. The Budget Committee concludes with a vote of the recommended budget for the Board's consideration.

A final Budget Hearing will be scheduled near the end of June where the public may again comment on the proposed budget before the Board formally approves the budget.
