The Department of Water and Power imposed conservation measures and higher
rates on June 1, sharply increasing many people's bills. OurLA.org wants to
know how the change has affected you. Be a part of our DWP conservation
survey and answer the following questions: What is the size of your bill
compared to your payments prior to conservation restrictions? What is the
size of your property? What is your water allotment under the new usage
formula? How many hundred cubic feet (HCF) are you allowed?
Please send your answers to info@ourla.org. OurLA will report on the
results of the survey in the coming weeks at OurLA.org.

Ron Kaye is the former editor of the Los Angeles Daily News where he spent 23 years helping to make the newspaper the voice of the San Fernando Valley and fighting for a city government that serves the people and not special interests.
Twice in recent years, Los Angeles Magazine listed Kaye among the city’s most influential people, specifically in the area of politics. Kaye has been variously described in the media as the “accidental anarchist,” “the Patrick Henry of the San Fernando Valley” and a “passionate populist.” He is now committed to
carrying on his crusade for a greater Los Angeles as an ordinary citizen. Previously, Ron worked at the Los Angeles Herald Examiner,
Associated Press, Cleveland Plain Dealer and The Australian as well as papers
in Fairbanks, Alaska and Yakima, Wash. He also wrote for Newsweek magazine, The Guardian in London and the National Enquirer.
