The West Basin Municipal Water District is committed to being open and accessible to its stakeholders, promoting transparency in its governance, and increasing awareness of District activities. The following forms and information are provided with this intention.
Agency Report Of Public Official Appointments (Form 806)
An official may vote to hold another position even if the voting official will receive additional income, so long as the public is informed prior to the vote or consent item. California Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) Regulation 18702.5 requires the official to file Form 806 under these circumstances. When there is a change in compensation or a new appointment, Form 806 is updated to reflect the change.

Payment To Agency Report (Form 801)
According to the FPPC, Regulations 18944 and 18950.1, Form 801 reports certain payments received by state and local government agencies that are used for agency purposes and paid by a third party. The form allows agencies to disclose these payments, which may include a payment for an official’s travel expenses for the purpose of facilitating the public’s business in lieu of using agency funds; and a payment that would otherwise be considered a gift or income to the benefiting official, but is instead accepted on behalf of the agency.
