This letter was written in light of ongoing public comments by LOCSD Dir. Fayram and GM Savage advocating for the largest, most expensive, most outdated and environmentally destructive possible “solution” to this tiny township’s alleged nitrate “problem.”

Preservation of Los Olivos (POLO) to the Rescue

The Los Olivos Community Service District is gifted a $75,000 Grant to complete a third-party study to determine the most efficient and cost-effective wastewater options for Los Olivos residents, to protect the groundwater, and to preserve our quaint town’s history and open spaces.

The LOCSD Board is deciding some big-ticket items this week. Hope you can come out and encourage more positive progress!

For the Los Olivos Community Services District — charged with devising an affordable and palatable solution to the tiny, historic township’s groundwater quality problem — it beginning to look less like a simple matter of “if you build it, they will come.” Rather, “they” (whoever they are) are already here and itching to break ground. Moreover, if we’re not careful, local residents could end up footing the bill for the infrastructure that is going to be necessary to support the current and future large-scale development.

Where have all the assessment fees gone,? Long time passing. Where have all the grant funds gone? Long time ago.

Budget Hearing - 6 pm this Wednesday, July 12, 2023. St. Mark’s or Zoom.

If you do not know what is going on with the septic-to-sewer project in Los Olivos, please join the meeting at 6pm this Wednesday, June 14.

Even if you hate attending community meetings, please come out for this one, and bring your voice!

Please spread the word far and wide: The Los Olivos CSD is going to host a Public Workshop at 6pm this coming Tuesday, January 24, at St. Marks and via Zoom.

Another extremely well written letter — this time from a Los Olivos parent and neighbor — recently published by Noozhawk and EdHat.

We can use VOTING POWER to protect historic Los Olivos from the expansive and destructive project the current board members have been pursuing for the last year and a half.

A Los Olivos resident argues that the community needs accurate information about the town's septic to sewer project.

The Los Olivos CSD Board Members want to know why some people do not trust them. Here my answers. (Long post with lots of live hyperlinks to source documents)
