Director, Santa Margarita Water District

By Saundra Frances Jacobs

Candidate for Board Member; Santa Margarita Water District

This information is provided by the candidate
As a Director on the Santa Margarita Water District Board for the past 10 years, I have supervised growth in the level of service and reduction in rates nine times since 1996. During this time we have increased critical water storage from 86,000,000 gallons to over 240,000,000 gallons to meet the demands of our customers. We have implemented policy to ensure that our water supplies are safe from natural disasters and terrorism, reliable in times of drought, and affordable.

Our community needs leaders who have a demonstrated commitment to serving the public, have a strong sense of responsibility for protection of the environment, are good stewards of our creeks and beaches, and have a vision to plan for the future. I have demonstrated my commitment as Director for 10 years, and as an environmental planner for over 20 years I have credentials to continue to meet the planning and environmental imperatives of the District. My strong commitment to serving the community, and tenure as a public official ensures that I am able to plan and implement sound environmental, water and governmental policy.

I have been involved in local public office since moving to Mission Viejo, and base my environmental consulting business here. I am a Board member of the Orange County Water Association, and actively involved in the South Orange County Chambers of Commerce, American Planning Association and the Association of Environmental Professionals. I have been involved in environmental planning as a member of academic, public and private sectors for over 20 years. My occupation demands that I stay abreast of environmental regulations, and keep in constant contact with planners and public officials throughout Orange County. My commitment and tenure as public official ensures that I am able to plan and implement sound environmental, water and government policy.

Thank you very much for your continued support.

Please Re-Elect Saundra Frances Jacobs, Director, Santa Margarita Water District, on November 7th.
