Assemblymember Paul Krekorian Appointed to
Assembly's Working Group on Water Issues
Assembly Speaker Fabian Nunez named Assemblymember Paul Krekorian
(D-Burbank) to the "Water Working Group" that will be developing
strategies to address California's critical needs regarding water
storage and conveyance.
Immediately upon adjournment of its regular legislative session on
Tuesday, the State Legislature convened a Special Session devoted to
water issues. California is facing an immediate water crisis due to a
combination of factors including drought conditions, aging
infrastructure and environmental concerns. The Water Working Group will
take the lead in developing legislation to address this crisis that will
then be presented to the full Assembly for its consideration.
Krekorian joins Water Working Group chair, Assemblymember John Laird
(D-Santa Cruz), as well as Assemblymembers Juan Arambula (D-Fresno),
Mike Eng (D-Monterey Park), Mike Feuer (D-Los Angeles), Jared Huffman
(D-San Rafael), Mary Salas (D-Chula Vista), and Lois Wolk (D-Davis) on
this assignment. The Assemblymembers will work in concert with the
Speaker on legislation to address both immediate and long-term needs of
the state arising from growing demands on water supply and the
inadequacy of California's existing water infrastructure to meet them.
"I'm honored that the Speaker has entrusted me with this challenging
responsibility to develop a consensus vision for meeting California's
water needs," said Krekorian. "Water issues have always shaped our
state's history, and we now face a critical juncture in shaping our
state's future. I'm looking forward to working with the Speaker and my
colleagues in addressing the critical need for more water supply and
storage and improved conveyance while also always fighting to protect
the state's environment."
Assemblymember Paul Krekorian (D-Burbank) represents the cities of
Burbank and Glendale, and the Los Angeles communities of Atwater
Village, Los Feliz, North Hollywood, Silver Lake, Toluca Lake, Valley
Glen, Valley Village and Van Nuys.
