History of the West Valley Water District
The District was formed in 1952 under the name of the Bloomington County Water District. Located in Bloomington, it served a small, rural area. Bloomington and especially the surrounding area, grew tremendously over the next 50 years.

Expansion & Growth
During the 1960s, '70s, and '80s, the District expanded to include other smaller water companies such as Citizens Land and Water Company, Lytle Creek Water, Crestmore Village Water Company, and Fontana Ranchos Company.

During this growth period, the District engaged in several large construction projects to achieve the following goals:

• To improve existing water systems
• To expand its distribution system
• To build a pipeline from water located near San Bernardino
• To build a water treatment facility

The District also increased the number of reservoirs, wells, and pump stations to accommodate the growth. Some of these projects were joint projects with other neighboring agencies.

The final name change to West Valley Water District occurred in 2003.

Now Serving 20,000 Homes
In the 1960s, the District still had 327 farmers irrigating their crops. Today, West Valley Water District now serves almost 20,000 homes and businesses and encompasses more than 29 square miles.
