Position Papers
My Accomplishments on the Board
In my tenure on the Board of Directors I have been instrumental in reducing property tax rates, keeping the cost of imported water the lowest in the San Gabriel Valley, providing grants and zero interest loans to Monterey Park for the construction of well treatment facilities, supported conservation effort to save over 16 million gallons of water each year and encouraged water recycling.
Excessive Director Compensation
The newspapers are full of accounts of Water District Directors receiving excessive compensation for attending meetings and running up huge expenses at the public's expense. I don't believe in this. This is "community service." This is not a full time job. My record proves it.
