The district was formed by vote of Half Moon Bay, Miramar and El Granada residents in July of 1947 to provide potable water to the residents, the canneries in Princeton and for more reliable fire protection. The district passed a $31 million bond issue in 1949 for a pipe from Pilarcitos reservoir to HMB. In 1950 the District sold 487 hook-ups to cover lots of expenses. In 1956 a dam was proposed to be built in Pescadero to supply HMB but was scrapped in 1971. In the 1960s the district got secondary water rights to Denniston Creek water, after the Farmers.
