Candidate for
Board Member; Los Trancos County Water District

Sharon and I bought our land in this community in 1971, then built our home in 1987, enjoying every year -- the friends, the enviroment and the activities.

After retiring from HP in 2000, I became active in the community to better know my neighbors and do what I could to help keep this a wonderful place. I've served as a Community Association President 2004-2005 and am currently Emergency Preparedness Committee event leader and backup commander.

For the last two years, I've been active in the evolution of the Water Board, attending almost every meeting, drafting our mission statement (an excellent guiding document) for the LAFCo review; co-lead the first residential survey, and currently serve on the Efficient Use of Water Committee.

My belief is that the Water Board serves the community to:
(1) keep our water affordable with our tax dollars over

the long haul;

them open, with an eye toward the long term
management of these assets,

Do all this with sound and open fiscal management with frequent input from the community to influence Water Board decisions.

Please vote for me November 6th.
