Under this Code, the District’s primary functions were, and continue to be, to acquire, control, conserve, store, and distribute water for the beneficial use of inhabitants and water users within the District.The Palmdale Water District (District) is an independent special district governed by a five-member Board of Directors who serve the public by division. Special districts provide accountability and a means to vote selectively and provide customers the opportunity to express their preferences more precisely. The most basic virtue of a special district is to allow citizens to customize government to suit their needs.TimelineRelease Project Date:March 13, 2024Pre-Bid Meeting (Mandatory):March 28, 2024, 9:00am 2029 East Avenue Q Palmdale, CA 93550Question Submission Deadline:April 4, 2024, 3:00pmQuestion Response Deadline:April 9, 2024, 5:00pmBid Submission Deadline:April 25, 2024, 2:00pmContractor Selection Date:May 13, 2024
