Candidate for
Board Member; Padre Dam Municipal Water District; Division 5

As we face historic drought conditions, it's more important than ever to continue to have strong leadership on the Padre Dam Water District Board of Directors.

By making budget reductions and reducing staff by 19% we've been able to save ratepayers millions of dollars annually. Proven results matter!

While wholesale water agencies' regional investments to improve water supply diversification drives our rising water rates, we've worked tirelessly to keep our own costs down.

With another opportunity to serve, I'll continue fighting for fiscal responsibility and for enhanced local water supply reliability and quality.

I would be honored to have your vote on November 4th.
