History:

August 11, 2000 Craig Johnson Irrigation Co Secretary said that the assessment was increased three years ago from $125 per share to $155 per share. The Water is delivered through a gravity flow pressurized (50 to 100 psi) irrigation pipeline system. The amount of water that you get is based on your acreage. Up to one acre you must have one share, up to two acres you must have two shares and so forth. The water was put in a pressurized pipeline about 10 years ago.  They had a 30 year contract but have been making double payments. It could be paid off in another 5 years.
