Re: Request for Nomination to the San Gabriel Basin Water Quality Authority Board
Dear Rosemead Mayor and City Council:
As you know, I have represented your city and the other cities without pumping rights on the San
Gabriel Basin Water Quality which I lobbied to create in 1993 to oversee the cleanup of our
groundwater basin. For the last 4 years I have served as the alternate. Every 4 years our 13 cities
must hold an election for a board member. The vote is weighted by cities' population. The period
when cities nominate by resolution at their council meeting closes on Oct. 20th and then the cities
vote again by resolution after November Pt.
I have always appreciated having your city's nomination and final vote and hope I can count on it
again. Our projects have removed over 71 tons of contaminants, but the work isn't over yet. With
the severe drought we are in, our water supply could be threatened and as you know I am not
afraid to ask questions. Please see my letter to the editor of Aug. 26, 2014.
Please feel free to call or email me. My cell is (626)833 -6673 and my email is
clarkeeesc(a)yahoo.com.
Thanks so much,
Margaret "Maggie" Clark
