WE'RE FIRED UP!
WE WON'T TAKE IT NO MORE!!
Each day, more members of our community are adding their signatures to the Protest Letter. They are aware that should the City of East Palo Alto assume control of the East Palo Alto Sanitary District (EPASD), it would lead to increased property taxes to finance sewer infrastructure for new developments. At present, everyone in EPASD territory, including homeowners, renters, businesses, schools, and churches, benefits from the lowest rates in San Mateo County, at $50 monthly.
However, if the City takes over, not only will this rate double, but it could soar by an additional $200 monthly as the City diverts our funds into its accounts, subsequently burdening us with the cost of new sewers for the benefit of billionaire developers.
We, the Residents for an Independent Sanitary District, believe that the developers should bear the cost of their own projects, not us! Support your community by signing the protest.

In solidarity, we extend our gratitude!
Mission
Our mission is to safeguard the autonomy and fiscal integrity of the East Palo Alto Sanitary District (EPASD), ensuring it remains a standalone entity dedicated to providing affordable, efficient, and sustainable sewer services to our community. We oppose the proposal to establish EPASD as a subsidiary district of the City of East Palo Alto, believing it is essential to maintain direct oversight and control of our local resources and infrastructure. We are committed to transparency, accountability, and the protection of our community's interests against unnecessary financial burdens and the centralization of control.
