📰 News we're reading
• Measure P proposes to increase Ramona water district's spending limit (sandiegouniontribune.com) — Ramona residents will soon decide Measure P, which would raise the Ramona Municipal Water District's voter-approved capital spending cap from about $3.3 million to $10 million, excluding grants. Supporters say it's needed to fund projects like pipeline upgrades and septic-to-sewer conversions without constant elections, while critics worry about reduced direct voter oversight on mid-sized projects. 
• Where to get free sandbags near me in San Diego County – NBC 7 San Diego (nbcsandiego.com) — With a tropical storm watch in effect, Ramona residents can pick up free sandbags at several nearby fire stations, including Stations 80, 81, 82, and Intermountain Station 85 on Highway 78. Supplies may be limited, so you're urged to call ahead, bring a shovel, and prepare now for possible heavy rain, flooding, and high winds this weekend.
