From Lance Richael, who served as the Water Board Chair

This message is to inform the board and RORA membership that I’m resigning immediately from my position on the RORA water committee. I was asked to serve as a volunteer by then board president Dennis Ann Strong, vetted by the sitting board and the vote was 5-0 to add me to the committee. As a committee member I’ve studied and learned much about the water augmentation plan. I respect how important our augmentation plan is and how important the maintenance of our reservoir is. I would hope that the new board members understand the importance of our water augmentation plan and reservoir maintenance, and respect the volunteers who work to protect our water rights. Remember, the water committee is an advisory committee not an action committee and should be treated as such.
