The Eastern Municipal Water District has a special benefit area which assesses a surcharge to cover the Temecula Old Town sewer improvement project. EMWD established a financing program in 2017 to allow property owners to make payments over time, although that program expired at the beginning of this year with regard to applications. The Wednesday, Sept. 16, EMWD board meeting extended the financing program for an additional five years.The 5-0 EMWD board vote allowed applications for the financing program to be submitted until Dec. 31, 2024. The board action also authorized the execution of subsequent financing agreements by the EMWD general manager or their designee contingent upon those agreements being consistent with the financing program terms and conditions set by district policy
