Book Description
Excerpt from Irrigation Districts in California: 1887-1915 The irrigation district is now an established institution in California, First authorized in California on a comprehensive basis in 1887, after an agitation in favor of neighborhood irrigation extending over at least fifteen years, and with extreme bitterness toward riparian proprietors, following the decision in Lux vs. Hoggin, probably furnishing much of the motive force that carried the Wright act of 1887 through the legislature, it has been found to be a workable and desirable plan for community ownership and operation of irrigation works. It is not the form of irrigation organization that is numerically strongest in California, nor is it very likely to attain numerical precedence over the co-operative or mutual irrigation company. Neither is it the form of organization under which the largest acreage is now irrigated in this State. It is, however, the form of organization that is now most generally considered both for new and for the reorganization of old irrigation development in California, as it is the form that has been most largely employed in this State in the more important new irrigation development and reorganization of the present decade. The irrigation district idea did not originate in California. Prior to the passage of the Wright act, Italy, France, and Spain had provided for neighborhood irrigation systems to which the district plan is somewhat similar. Municipal organization had also been employed in drainage. The first irrigation district legislation in the United States was passed by Utah in 1865. That legislation provided that county clerks, on application of a majority of landowners in areas proposed to be organized, should create districts. In those districts landowners were the electors, if land taxes were to be levied, or taxpayers, if general property taxes. A few districts were formed under that act, but nothing important was accomplished. The first California irrigation district act was passed in 1872, "An act to promote irrigation by the formation of irrigation districts." It provided that owners of lands desiring to irrigate or drain them might petition the county supervisors for the formation of irrigation districts.
