Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change In
Fiscal Year

Amendments to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate of Incorporation") and Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "Bylaws") of SouthWest Water Company (the "Company") were approved by the Company's Board of Directors ("Board") on January 29, 2008 and by the Company's stockholders at the annual stockholder meeting on May 20, 2008. The amendments to the Certificate of Incorporation were effective upon filing of a Certificate of Amendment of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Amended Certificate") with the Delaware Secretary of State on May 20, 2008.

The changes to the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws declassify the Company's Board of Directors. The changes to the Bylaws were approved by way of Amendment No. 5 to the Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "Amended Bylaws") and became effective upon the effectiveness of the Amended Certificate. The Board of Directors declassification will phase in over the next three annual stockholder meetings (including the 2008 annual stockholder meeting), with the first full election of the entire Board of Directors in 2010.

The Amended Certificate and the Amended Bylaws are attached hereto as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2 respectively. The description of these documents and applicable changes does not purport to be complete and is qualified by reference to the full text of the attached Amended Certificate and Amended Bylaws.
