I recalled reading the original contract between SIERRA HIGHLANDS WATER COMPANY and RALPH STURTEVANT some time ago and that the actual number of water meters agreed to was 10 and not 7 as Ross had stated.  [Perhaps EMERY ROSS became confused with the fact SEVEN (7) METERS WERE “LIBERATED” or wrongfully procured, if you prefer,  by other property owners whose property was far removed from the STURTEVANT RANCH TANK LOCATION?]    The below LDPCSD Resolution also confirms that those water meters were to be placed at or near the the main pipeline to the proposed water tank which is now commonly known as the “STURTEVANT TANK” in the Granite Springs area.

So once again, how did several water meters

intended for the STURTEVANT RANCH AND AT A PARTICULAR LOCATION

end up being “LIBERATED” by others and used else where?

(With their SUBSEQUENT GROUNDWATER SUBSTITUTION PROGRAM

BEING PAID FOR SINCE THEN BY THE

LEGAL USERS OF MERCED RIVER WATER IN THE WATER LICENSE ENTITLED LDPOA RESIDENTIAL SUBDIVISION?)

RECALL ALSO THAT EMERY ROSS WAS SPECIFICALLY DENIED A WATER METER BY STURTEVANT RANCH WHEN PURCHASING HIS PROPERTY AND DENIED WATER SERVICE MULTIPLE TIMES BY THE LAKE DON PEDRO COMMUNITY SERVICES DISTRICT.

 

Here’s the RESOLUTION  —need to get back to work but I remembered this “loose end” concerning DIRECTOR ROSS AND HIS INCORRECT STATEMENT and wanted you folks to see the confirmation of what I said during that meeting.
