Eric believes that the most important role of the District is to improve and maintain the drainage system in our county, which has an effect on our overall water quality resources.  Additionally he believes the District's community outreach programs fulfill an important role in service to our community members.  His favorite part of serving is the opportunity to network with like minded people that have the similar goals and interests.  As a cattle rancher, Eric brings a value added perspective to the Board and a different view and input focusing on improvements from the bottom of the system up.  Eric also serves as an alternate District representative to outside agencies.
