We appreciate the Board of County <br />Commissioners considering oW' recommendation of having Chuck Ogilby serve as the County's <br />representative on the Colorado River Water Conservation District. Michael, now is the time to make a <br />change. <br />Referendum A was one of the most important water issues facing Eagle County and the State of <br />Colorado in the past decade. One of the principal supporters of that referendum was Commissioner Stone. <br />Over 83% of Eagle County voters rejected Referendum A~ Statewide, two-thirds of the voters rejected this <br />referendum~ It is clear from these votes that Conunissioner Stone does not represent the citizens or the <br />interests of Eagle County on water supply issues. Yet, Connnissioner Stone is the County1s representative <br />on such important water organizations as the Colorado River Water Conservation District; the Statewide <br />Water Supply Initiative, the Colorado River Headwaters Forum, Northwest Colorado COWlcil of <br />Governments Water Quality and Quantity Committee and Club 20. In many cases Corrunissioner Stone is <br />the. taxpayer's sole representative. <br />Once again) we believe ,that it is in the best interest of Eagle County for Commissio~er Stone to <br />immediately step down from these positions and urge the County Conunissioners appoint someone who <br />truly represents the citizens of Eagle County and is willing and able to- protect our important water interests <br />without jeopardizing the responsibilities of 1041 permitting issues. We seek representation from someone <br />with the knowledge of water supply mattersJ the time and ability to meet with his or her constituents, and a <br />passion for the protection and development of the water resources in Eagle County~ <br />A written response would be greatly appreciated. Please send it in care of Eagle River Water & <br />Sanitation District. ' <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />EAGLE RIVER WATER AND SANITATION DISTRICT <br /> <br />~ &tc.~ <br /> <br />Rick Sackbauer <br />Chainnan <br /> <br />cc: <br /> <br />Mr. Am Menconi <br />Mr. Tom Stone <br />ER WSD Board of Directors <br />UER W A Board of Directors <br />Mr. Qleoo Porzak, Porzak, Browing and Bushong <br />Mr. Jack Ingstad, County Administrator <br />Ms. Diane Mauriello, County Attorney <br />Mr. David Hallford, Balc~mb and Green <br />Mr. Chuck Ogilby <br />Mr. Paul Ohri, CRWCD <br />Mr. T.
