This amounts to a daily rate of production per person of about <br />188 gallons based on estimated average population for the entire <br />Metropolitan Water District. <br /> <br />t <br /> <br />Construction <br /> <br />No major construction was in progress during the fiscal year. <br />Several additional connections to District pipe lines were made for <br />service to constituent areas. <br /> <br />Area-, populat-ion, and (1.';sessed valuat-ion <br /> <br />In addition to annexation of Pomona Valley Municipal Water <br />District in November 1950 and Eastern Municipal Water District <br />(annexation actually completed July 20,1951 after close of the fiscal <br />year) minor annexations were made to many constituent.s, increas- <br />ing the District area by 213.54 square miles. The population <br />figures in table 1 are based on the 1950 U.S. Census to which <br />are added the year's increases as estimated by competent author- <br />ities of the various constituents. The figures for assessed valuation <br />are from official sources and represent the value of property sub- <br />ject to taxation for District purposes in 1951-52. There are now <br />in the Metropolitan Water District 35 incorporated cities together <br />with extensive unincorporated territor)' in four counties of the <br />coastal area. <br /> <br />~l <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />The assessed valuation of property subject to District taxes, on <br />the first Monday in March 1951, increased through growth of all <br />constituents and annexations $393,144,315 over that of the corre- <br />sponding day in 1950. The total market value of all property within <br />the Metropolitan Water District, including property exempt from <br />taxation and public property upon which no taxes are levied, is <br />now in excess of $10,500,000,000. This figure is based on the <br />assessed valuation being taken as approximately 50 pel' cent of tbe <br />fair market valuation. <br /> <br />l <br />
