STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: BRIAN RING, CITY ADMINISTRATOR
RE: DISCONTINUANCE OF FLUORIDATION OF DOMESTIC WATER

PROVIDED BY CALIFORNIA WATER SERVICE COMPANY TO

CITY OF OROVILLE
DATE: JULY 2, 2024

SUMMARY
The Council will consider a resolution directing staff to work with the California Public Utility Commission (CPUC) and California Water Service (CalWater) to discontinue the requirement to add fluoride to domestic water that is provided to customers residing within the City of Oroville.

DISCUSSION
On February 1, 1954, the Oroville City Council passed a resolution requesting that California Board of Public Health issue a permit to CalWater, authorizing CalWater to add fluoride to domestic water supply provided to the City residents. In addition, the resolution requested that CalWater obtain said permit. In 1957, CalWater started to fluoridate the drinking water within the City limits.

State law currently requires systems with 10,000 or more service connections to fluoridate water if public funds are available to do so. In 2018, 59% of water systems in California treated their water with fluoride (down from 64%in 2014). Currently public funds are not available for this service.

There are differing opinions on the potential benefits of adding fluoride to water. In 1954, this matter was brought before the Oroville City Council at the request of many Oroville residents, as a way to help prevent tooth decay. Since this time, other methods have been introduced as a way to apply fluoride to your teeth. On May 21, 2024 the Oroville City Council considered the need to continue fluoridation in domestic water provided by CalWater and directed staff to take necessary steps to discontinue this requirement.

The City Council will receive a report from Mayor Pittman on the Letter of Support that was sent to various government officials pertaining to Marysville's Disaster Declaration.

The City of Oroville has a vested interest in the economic vitality of Marysville and our region, are writing to express our concern regarding the adverse impacts of the Marysville Hotel incident, previously managed by Urban Smart Growth, on local and regional businesses.

The Marysville Hotel incident has extensive disruptions to both the City of Marysville and the region. Specifically, the incident has forced road closures and traffic diversions on State Highway 70 between 3rd and 4th Streets, which is having significant impacts on business operations throughout Marysville and the region. Despite not being within the immediate fall zone, numerous businesses have reported significant declines in customer traffic and revenue, compelling some to implement workforce reductions as a means of financial sustainability.

Mayor Pittman sent a letter on his behalf in support of the declaration of a State of Emergency for Marysville, and requests consideration for a letter in Support from the entire Council.
