Chairman Nat Sinclair and members of the Board of Directors
South Tahoe Public Utility District
Chairman and Boardmembers,
Due to a prior committment I am not able to present my remarks to the Board in
person, therefore I have chosen to communicate my concerns in writing.
In a recent newspaper article which discussed the purpose and intent of this
meeting I was impressed that the Board saw fit to at least alert the community of
what may be coming. Much different than prior Boards who often discouraged open
discussion of sensitive subjects, for fear of community reaction. Those same
boards committed themselves to conditions imposed by various agencies which were
unreasonable and extremely expensive, Without carefully analyzing their
implications and costs. I sympathize with this board, who must now pick up the
pieces.
To coin the Chairman's phrase, "pay me now or pay me later" may have a ring to it,
however, it is fact that this community has been paying dearly for many years. We
have and continue to pay for the extravagence and waste of this District for those
same years. The money that has been squandered in legal costs, consultant fees,
engineering miscalculations, not to speak of salaries and wages of employees
increasing without regard or consideration for the ratepayers of this community,
will not be taken lightly.
In case you are not aware, this community is reeling from the economic pinch as
well as a drought condition which has caused a severe downturn in the local
economy. From my recent experience, a number of businesses have closed and many
more are on the verge. It is unreasonable that this community should bear the
full brunt of the District's financial dilemna.
I expect that the South Tahoe Public Utility District should examine its operation
and staffing very carefully as well as hold the line on wages, to determine where
costs savings may be made, before any consideration is given to raising fees.
When my business suffers from these economic conditions, I must first focus on
reducing staff, the largest expense in my business. Labor is yours as well and !
expect you to do the same.
Sincerely,
