Dear Water Customer and PVMWC Shareholder,

I am running to be on the board of our water company. I first moved to Camarillo in 1998. My background is in electrical engineering, I have degrees in physics and economics. My career was split evenly between engineering and writing software to control industrial machines and instruments. Now I am largely retired and manage a couple of properties I own. I am volunteering my time to this work because water is one of the most valuable and important natural resources we gave, Also, it is important we work to protect our rights to it and deliver it to our homes cost effectively. I am looking forward to seeing the water softening system that we have paid special assessment gets finally put into place. I want to help get this finished. 

I ask for you to vote. Thank you

​

Dear Shareholders,

My name is Pamella Geagan. I've lived in the Heights for 45 years. I'm applying for consideration as a nominee for the Board of Directors. I am grateful to the Pleasant Valley Water District for their quality service and have a desire to give back to my community. I read the annual water reports and am aware of where our water resources originate. Recently, I retired as a minister. Previously, I was owner and producer of a video company that created numerous, educational and training videos for the Oxnard Wastewater Plant and Oxnard City Water Division, Calleguas Water District and Ventura County Public Works. This body of work gave me a greater understanding of our vital water resources. ​

I have many years in Farm Management, running operations in the Somis Valley, as well as water conservation management of large and small irrigation systems. I also spent years working for a local pump company and am very familiar with pumps, boosters, and well systems and treatment.  Our operations included staged pump designs to high head storage, as well as large 500HP deep well systems to tank storage. I have held a California Applicators License for Herbicides and Pesticides and am familiar with best practices in their use. I hope i provide customers and employees with attention and concern of the company policies.
