Separately, Farm to Market LLC, owned by Mike Parnell, has challenged the multiple voting irregularities of the 2023 election of directors. Link See our Who We Are page for a description of who is asking for this recall. It consists of five current and former directors of EWUA, along with multiple concerned citizens. Statement by current director Carol Anderson Link Statement by current director Ron Claus Link Statement by current director Jim Cook Link Statements by others Link The only way to resolve these egregious violations of the membership’s rights is to replace Nelson and his supporters with people who will follow state law, the bylaws, and standard Board ethics. To make this happen, we ask the members to sign a petition calling for a meeting of the members then attend in person or via proxy.

The below links are related to the August-November 2023 recall activities. Four directors left the Board at the end of 2023.  At the time, RecallWater believed that, with the departure of these four individuals, four new Board members would step in and clean up the mess. We sent out an email claiming success and, then, ceased our recall activities, rescinding all of the proxies we held.  As noted above, those hopes failed to materialize.
