Honorable Board of Supervisors,
Thank you for considering qualified applicants for the Non-
Agricultural Domestic Well User Board of Director position, and
thank you for the opportunity to express support for my preferred
candidate. I am a domestic well user (or resident of, as
appropriate) in the Vina subbasin and I’m writing to express
support for the appointment of Jim Graydon, as I believe he is the
most qualified candidate for this role.
Mr. Graydon has decades of technical consulting experience in
water resources management, groundwater remediation, and
wastewater treatment. Mr. Graydon also holds a wealth of public
service experience as a Domestic Well User Representative on
the Vina GSA Stakeholder Advisory Committee. His past Board
Member service with the CA Onsite Wastewater Association and
the CA Association of Sanitation Agencies lends him further
relevant experience.
Mr. Graydon prioritizes trust-building between various
stakeholder bodies and will address communication barriers
between them. He engages with a wide network of Domestic
Groundwater Users and acts as a trusted messenger for this
community. Jim Graydon would be a great asset to thoughtful,
fair and evidence-based decision-making on the Vina GSA Board
of Directors.
With respect,
Avia Brittain-Rasmussen
