I have been a resident in the Camarillo Heights since 2011, and served as a director of Pleasant Valley Mutual Water since 2014. I have experience with shallow and deep water well facilities and pipeline similar to what conveys water to our homes and businesses here in Camarillo. I respectfully request to continue service as a director, and look forward to representing you for the upcoming term should you so choose.

Frank de Greef (Nominee)
Dear Shareholders,
Hello, my name is Frank de Greef and I have been a shareholder from the Pleasant Valley Mutual Water Company for last 22 years. I would like to be elected as a member of the Board of Directors of Pleasant Valley Mutal Water Company since the water supply quality is for essential life importance. During my study for Horticulture Engineering in college, I learned a lot about water and the quality of water. Besides this the technical part about water like pumps and irrigation and so on, was big part of my study. Water and its quality are not only essential for life but also for food we consume daily, as i learned in college during my career. I have an import and export company. We import and export worldwide and plant material to growers. Besides this i am and have been a volunteer as a board member for several HOA's where I got a lot of knowledge serving boards.

Warren (Bill) Manzer (Incumbent)
My family moved back to Camarillo Heights in 1942 when I was five years old. My family lived on Mesa Drive. My wife, Raelene Manzer, taught at Camarillo Heights School for thirty years. We raised our two sons on North Loop Dr. In 1977, at the age of 40, I was asked to join the Board of Directors of PVMWC. Many of the forty-three years I have been selected to be President by our board members. The Board has overseen the grant to bring in large pipeline from the upper tanks, the addition of two metered turnouts from the Calleguas Municipal Water District to help guarantee a water supply, the replacement of older and inadequate supply lines and upgrades to our wells. The modernization of data on shareholders is continuing with of addition of "smart meters" (We have received a Federal Grant to finish installing smart meters). The addition of the iron and manganese removal systems was completed before 2005 (this is half of a groundwater desalinization system). The desalinization (reverse osmosis) plant development plans started in 2013. The design plans were completed in 2014 so we could apply and the receive approval for a Grant for 75% of 3.2 Million dollars. Our desalinization project is connected to the City of Camarillo's desalinization project through a mutual brine line. The brine line contract is awarded and with city permits for the building in process we will be able to complete the project next year.
Warren (Bill) Manzer
