“East Bay politicians complain about water rates just to get your vote,” Grcar said. “Politicians can’t fix water rates because EBMUD has to serve fast-growing parts of Contra Costa County, but the Mokelumne River cannot grow to serve them, so EBMUD has to pay to use Sacramento River water.”
Grcar also challenged candidate Gary Wolff’s characterization of himself as a political outsider, pointing to his endorsements from “every elected official in the East Bay.” “He is an ambitious politician trying to unseat the incumbent of his own party, April Chan,” Grcar said. “Enjoy the show, and vote for Joseph Grcar instead.”
