2014 North Coast County Water District,
(NCCWD) Board of Directors
Joshua Cosgrove outgoing President (middle)

"Editor:  I attended the July 9, 2014 water board meeting and was impressed with their courtesies extended to the audience. I found their agendas as well as their reports to be easily read and transparent. They recently received a Certificate of Excellence from the Special District Leadership Foundation.

I met with Cari C. Lemke, general manager, regarding issues with water fees during a drought period that also reflect our sewer fees. She told me she was meeting with city officials that week. I am hoping the billing cycles will be brought to their attention.

I expressed my concerns with the numerous leaks, and was told it was an annual report and they are in the process of replacing old pipes, which even gave the addresses of those leaks. The next Democrats meeting will be held at the Sharp Park restaurant August 16 at 9:30 a.m. Our featured speaker will be Joshua Cosgrove, water board member and Pacifica employee. The public is invited."
