HCR 2016 Arizona House · 57th Legislature - First Regular Session

reinstatement; WIFA monies

This concurrent resolution (HCR 2016) expresses Arizona's legislative commitment to restore full funding for the Long-Term Water Augmentation Fund (LTWAF), which supports the Water Infrastructure Finance Authority (WIFA). It directly affects WIFA, which uses this fund to attract private investment for water supply projects like conservation, reuse, and new renewable water sources. The resolution states that two years of funding cuts have left the fund under-resourced, jeopardizing WIFA's ability to develop projects critical to addressing Arizona's water scarcity. It resolves to reinvest the full promised appropriation once budget conditions improve, ensuring WIFA can partner with private entities to secure long-term water supplies for communities. The resolution passed in April 2025 and is now transmitted to the Secretary of State.
