I admit to being sick to my stomach with such nonsense. (But what should we expect considering what is occupying the white house right now?) Decided I would take the time today to post and report on the March 15, 2021 Lake Don Pedro Community Services District (LDPCSD) Board of Directors meeting. Placed the LDPCSD mailed CD into the drive and guess what? Wrong meeting! I was provided a copy of the old January 25th meeting instead. Recall that I mentioned before these CDs are provided by the LDPCSD are not even date labeled? Not at all, either on the envelope or the CD itself. Seriously, how much “office time” is spent writing: “LDPCSD <date> ” on a frigg’n disk with a marker? Might even improve efficiency.
Anyway, I received an envelope in the mail with a plastic enclosed written apology from the USPS for what appeared to be ink/oil over the envelope, – but the disk was fine inside – just the wrong meeting.
Strange. The last two CD deliveries were made by the GM himself to my mail box (with my expressed permission and thanks) but this one goes through USPS again and…… oh well, stuff happens right? (Can you imagine the number of automatic sorting and processing machines every piece of mail must go through in its journey from being sent and ultimately received? Undoubtedly extremely complex with many potential problems and understandable that jams or “incidents” will occur sometimes.)
Anyway, here’s the second request for the LDPCSD MARCH 15 2021 meeting that was supposed to have the item of MARIPOSA COUNTY FORCING THAT LOSER OF A SEWER SYSTEM ON A WATER DISTRICT THAT CAN’T HANDLE WATER SERVICE YET! Who knows what happened? Anyway, here’s the second request – I’ve got other things to do now. later!
Recently LDPCSD mailed CD was the incorrect meeting recording
09:29 To: Syndie M LDPCSD
Sunday. Syndie, recently I requested the last LDPCSD BOD meeting for March 15th, unfortunately I was mailed another copy of the January 25, 2021 meeting – again. Much time is being wasted (on both sides) when important issues scheduled for board hearings are, for one reason or another, unreasonably delayed. Heck in some cases such requests for PUBLIC INFORMATION have been completely ignored (by the county and district) and NEVER provided despite multiple requests through the years (ie, such as the 1993 Merced Irrigation District shape file map which Peter Kampa wrongfully used for years (2014-2019) in misdirecting the LDPCSD into developing extremely expensive ground water wells with government grant funds intended for drought relief OF EXISTING CUSTOMERS (AND SPECIFICALLY NOT FOR INCREASING NEW SERVICE CONNECTIONS – MUCHLESS SERVICE CONNECTIONS OUTSIDE THE MERCED IRRIGATION DISTRICT PLACE OF USE FOR MERCED RIVER WATER PER WL11395 where our district owes no legal duty or moral obligation to provide JACK SQUAT!) , yet those water wells were actually intended to be used in yet another unethical attempt to supply a blended water mix outside the permitted service area for Merced River water (according to MID’s own water license 11395 restrictions) for the many LAFCO [LOCAL AGENCY FORMATION COMMISSION] ANNEXATION DEVELOPMENTS KAMPA WRONGFULLY SETUP some 20 years earlier WITHOUT BOARD PERMISSION when first employed at the LDPCSD as manager. (Why should entitled water users provide their water (and pay for the extra costs involved in producing and furnishing the LAFCO BLENDED WATER) for other outside PLACE OF USE proposed residential subdivisions (and other proposed developments) approved by LAFCOs in this drought prone region?)
I sure hope our current GM and his Board are not again working with the Merced Irrigation District, the CALIFORNIA SPECIAL DISTRICTS ASSOCIATION (CSDA), and other public/private entities in the same ANTI-CUSTOMER MODE as our previous GM PETER KAMPA did to thwart PUBLIC INFORMATION ACQUISITION and/or DISTRICT ACTIVITY AWARNESS FROM THE ALREADY VICTIMIZED CUSTOMERS OF THIS FRAUD OF A CALIFORNIA SPECIAL DISTRCT.
What are the characteristics of a California Special District anyway? A limited public service; a defined geographical service area; a specific class of designated customers, and the service is provided for only the cost necessary in delivering that service to the customer, yet all four characteristics in our CALIFORNIA SPECIAL DISTRICT have been ignored in favor of beneficial exploitation for LAFCO ANNEXATION DEVELOPMENT PROMOTERS and all to the detriment of the MANDATORY LDPCSD CUSTOMERS WITHIN THE RESIDENTIAL SUBDIVISION. Imagine, all the decades of expensive turmoil only continued by the same organizations that formed the LDPCSD in the first place back in 1980. Apparently this was all an intentionally designed trap for the “deep pocket” designated LDP property owner. Creating a community services district with a deep pocket MANDATORY CUSTOMER BASE OF INNOCENT LAKE DON PEDRO PROPERTY OWNERS WHO ARE FORCED TO SUBSIDIZE AN EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE GROUNDWATER SUBSTITUTION PROGRAM TO CIRCUMVENT MERCED RIVER WATER PLACE OF USE RESTRICTIONS IN 11395 FOR LAFCO ANNEXATIONS INTO THE LDPCSD THAT NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN APPROVED 20 YEARS AGO ACCORDING TO LAFCO’s OWN REGULATIONS? LAFCO RESOLUTION 76-4….
Sorry, I digress but I have spent over a decade trying to make sense of this nightmare which continues to harm and exploit the taxpaying property owners within the Lake Don Pedro subdivision. Is this part of LAFCO Special District Socialism 101?
Anyway, I would still appreciate a copy of the last March 15, 2021 LDPCSD BOD meeting. Thank you, Lew
