All above are taken from EVMWD OWN DOCUMENTS.
From reviewing these EVMWD documents it appears that multiple company billings to EVMWD are on the same invoice. Each company should have its own invoice for their records when dealing with other entities. All request for billing breakdown have been ignored, avoided or not given.
Chris Hyland spent her tenure years fighting aganist Funds being paid to Nevada Hydro. Hyland is also the first one to step up to the plate voluntarily to pay back the overpaid Days of Service. The other majority Board Members was forced by an audit they obviously controlled. No releases on what if any they ever paid back the overpaid Days of Service. Even so that majority never approved paying back funds overpaid from 2001 and 2002 and only parts of 03 & 04 Days of Service. Fact, Chris Hyland NEVER took any money that she did not earn!!!
RECEIPE FOR RATEPAYERS
In view of the above documented information EM2 strongly urge EVMWD ratepayers to form a committee. Open their wallets wide, Collect funds collectively, Hire an attorney, outside of Riverside County far away. From all APPEARANCES, a strong Civil Case Exist for holding all the self serving leaders accountable in recouping the Public Funds. There are about 38,000 EVMWD ratepayers, just $25.00 each from a fraction of the 38,000 should raise enough funds to hire the best attorney for the case, to go after the bastards who are extorting and ripping them off. What ever is done must be very,very prudently planned. the ratepayers is dealing with slimmie,slippery, conterfiet, slick self serving, unprofessional leadership. You have the Public Records Act, Freedom of Information Act and the recently Amended State of California constitution Prop 59 by which to obtain documentation.
