Serrano Water District ( SWD ) was formed in 1927 and serves a population of 6, 500 in the City of Villa Park and a small portion of the City of Orange. SWD receives its water supply from local surface water which is stored in Irvine Lake and groundwater from three wells located within the City of Villa Park. SWD uses 3, 500 acre feet of water annually, due to the proliferation of large residential lots. SWD is an independent water district established in 1927 under the California Water Code, with a five-member elected board of directors. The Board members are elected by divisions. The Board appoints a General Manager to implement the policy decisions of the Board and oversee day-to-day operations and services.
