After many many years of faithful service to his community Larry Russ has finally resigned from the Tooley Water Board. Larry sites his resignation will now allow for more time to pursue his hobbies and other passions.

Tooley Water Board and the Tooley Water community will greatly miss the incredible service Larry has provided over the years.

In anticipation of Larry's resignation (he did provide ample warning) Tooley Water District has extended their contract with their maintenance contractor Highland Water to provide for additional on-site visits. The purpose of these visits is to fulfill the extra work load previously donated by Larry in terms of system maintenance and preventative maintenance.

John Amery was appointed to replace Larry on the Tooley Water District Board.
