PRESS RELEASE
August 30, 2005:
NOVEMBER ELECTION
CVWD will not be on the ballot this November 8th. The three Directors,
whose terms were expiring, Mr. Vasken Yardemian, Mr. Richard, Atwater,
and Mr. Ernest Webber, will all serve another term.
The filling period for this election was July 18th through August 12th
and besides the incumbent Directors, there were no other applicants.
Consequently, the Board of Supervisors will appoint each Director to
another term. Not taking part in the election will save the District
approximately $40,000.00.
CVWD is pleased to have all three of the Directors back for another four
years.
Director Webber has already served two terms on the CVWD Board, has been
a resident of the Crescenta Valley for 40 years and has over 45-years of
experience in the water industry working primarily in Geology,
Hydrology, and water quality improvement.
Director Atwater, one of our newer members, joined the Board in late
2003. He brings great knowledge and experience with his career in the
water industry, where he is currently General Manager of one of the
larger wholesale water agencies. Director Atwater served as a member of
the California Water Commission from 2000 to 2004 and has received
awards from EPA for environmental management.
Director Yardemian, who has served one term on the CVWD Board, has been
active in the La Crescenta community for the last ten years. He served
on the Crescenta Valley Town Council for five years and was also Council
president. Director Yardemian has worked for the South Coast AQMD for
the last 17 years as an environmental engineer and holds an
undergraduate degree in Civil Engineering and an M.S. in Environmental
Science.
The Directors are scheduled to be sworn in at the December 13th Board
Meeting, and will serve a 4-year term.
