Water District Director Endorses Candidate: Letter To The Editor

PLEASANTON — Pleasanton residents deserve clean, safe drinking water, and that won’t happen by accident. Thoughtful planning, sound science and forward-thinking public policy will be needed to ensure our infrastructure and water treatment methodology provide healthy tap water now and in the future.

At a time when water utilities across the United States are grappling with aging water infrastructure, California water utilities must also prepare for drought. What does this mean for Pleasanton? This means we must continue to support our ongoing water supply reliability studies so we can prioritize investments in projects that best match our community’s needs.

The water issues ahead will require leaders who understand science, listen to the community, and care deeply about the health and well being of Pleasanton residents. As a Zone 7 Water District Director, I have the distinct pleasure of working with Kathy Narum who serves on our City’s Zone 7 Liaison Committee. Her engineering background affords her the analytical aptitude to evaluate reports and studies, and her stalwart commitment to water security for Pleasanton makes her an exceptional advocate. I am proud to endorse Kathy Narum for City Council.
