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 of the Santa Margarita Water District Board, I have overseen both growth in the level of service and reduction of water rates each of the past six years in office. During this time we have increased critical water storage from 80,000,000 gallons to over 200,000,000 gallons to meet the demands of our existing customers in Mission Viejo, Rancho Santa Margarita, Coto de Caza, Las Flores, Wagon Wheel, and those in the new community of Ladera. We have implemented policy to ensure steady, reliable and safe drinking water supplies.

With a strong commitment to serving the community in which I live and work, 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.

With change all around us, our community needs the assurance that our water supplies are safe, reliable 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, and a vision to plan for the future. I have demonstrated my commitment as Director for six years, and have the credentials as an environmental planner to continue to meet the planning and environmental imperatives of the District.

With your help I will continue the fight. Thank you for your continued support. Please Vote for Saundra Frances Jacobs, Director, Santa Margarita Water District.
