Editorial: Long, Di Giorgio, Welsh for Novato Sanitary board

Here we go again. Who is their right mind would vote for anyone who a paper recommeds. Wake up Novato and vote FISHWICK

Mike Di Giorgio is the last person who should be holding a public office. His massive arrogance is only exceeded by an over-inflated ego.

Before Diorgio was booted off the Novato city council, he managed to become part of the "streetgate" mess, and led the charge to develop the Bahia wetlands and forest. That horrible project was subsequently overturned by a large majority of Novato voters. Now, these beautiful Bahia lands are part of Marin County Open Space, protected for future generation to enjoy.

Currently, Di Giorgio sits on the NSD board, causing even more trouble and discord while asking Novato voters to forget his past misdeeds.

Novato should reject this sorry has been, once and for all.

The IJ should take a very close look at that Veolia contract. Some claim the base price will save $, but after add-on charges for insurance, etc., it really constitutes a $1 million increase. Doesn't the IJ have any investigative reporters left? What's the real story on this? Please examine without bias for DiGiorgio's point of view.

Why would anyone in their right mind accept the placement of liability upon Ratepayers? Put out the contract and we the people get insurance, after all the "Union Bunch" let the spills happen! Now they cry about a contractor???

Mike Di Giorgio and Bill Long are the two most arrogant people I've ever met. They believe themselves to be gods and have only voted for their special interests. Novato Sanitary District is ready for new, thoughtful, and intelligent commissioners. "Throw the bums out!!" Also, Mr. Knutson is very ill and I'm quite surprised his wife, Carol Dillon-Knutson is letting him run for commissioner again.

All five MANAGEMENT employees that NSD has retained lawyers for ,and the EPA are showing interest in, are non Union. Not one general employee in the bargaining unit are under investigation, and do not have lawyers retained by NSD. Seems that if a non management employee did something illegal they would be fired right off the bat. NSD's board members seem to feel their management team needs high priced lawyers, even though there have not been any indictments handed down. Something smells, and it's not the new 90 milion dollar treatment plant they just handed a French corporation the keys to.

Me thinks people don't do their homework and they just scan the newspapers endorsements as they rush off to the polls? See election results.
