In July, the Hi-Desert Water District sent out a request for proposals for consultants for its strategic plan and organizational assessment. At tonight’s meeting of the board of directors, directors will be asked to choose a consultant for the strategic plan, and hold off on choosing a consultant for the organizational assessment until a later date. The directors will also be asked to name eight members—out of the 11 applications it has received—to its public advisory committee. In closed session, the board will negotiate easements for 20 properties owned by the county flood control district. The meeting starts at 6 p.m. in board offices on the highway at Inca Trail in Yucca Valley.
