Strategic Planning
Over the years, SBMWD has periodically evaluated its strategic goals, ensuring alignment with changing demands, regulatory requirements, and community expectations. This updated Strategic Plan builds upon our past efforts and captures key priorities identified by the Water Board, staff, and stakeholders.
The Strategic Plan, adopted by the Water Board on July 8, 2025, is derived from SBMWD's commitment to providing trusted quality service. The finished plan provides a clear road map for SBMWD's future development and achievements. View the Strategic Plan brochure.
