CUCAMONGA VALLEY WATER DISTRICT

Clean, safe, reliable drinking water should not be taken for granted. Almost 400 water systems in California are failing and many more are at risk of failing, but Cucamonga Valley Water District (CVWD) consistently provides water that passes stringent water tests with excellence. 

Since joining the CVWD Board of Directors, the district received an upgraded bond rating from Fitch Ratings Inc. in 2022 to "AA+" and maintained that rating in 2024. The rating and evaluation includes the district's water system and standalone credit profile (SCP). This is the result of exceptional operational management and employee performance. 

The bond rating provides an independent unbiased examination of the status of the agency. The rating agency undertakes a tremendous amount of due diligence before coming up with its rating. The rating and evaluation is particularly meaningful because they make them in comparison to similar utilities. 

The Fitch Report noted Cucamonga Valley Water District's

     Very Low Operating Cost Burden

     Favorable/Affordable Rates

     Very Strong Financial Profile

Your water agency, and I say "your" because it belongs to the residents and ratepayers of the district for your service and for future generations, is in excellent condition and prepared to meet the challenges of the future. Our continued success is aided by having capable experienced board members.
