Findings and Recommendations 9 findings
F1
The SCVWD plans to build an additional outdoor education center (Gold Street Education Center) at a cost of between $1.1 million and $1.3 million in Alviso. The attendance data provided by SCVWD for the existing education centers do not support the need for another education center.
Related Recommendations (1)
R1
In lieu of building the Gold Street Education Center, the SCVWD should consider less costly methods of satisfying stated education goals like the addition of strategically placed interpretive signage on hiking and biking trails bordering the Alviso Slough, and Bay and/or at the Marina, detailing history and current conditions of water issues related to Alviso.
F2
The SCVWD provided this Grand Jury with a summary of their outdoor classroom program attendance. After repeated requests, the Grand Jury was told that the data verifying the summary figures do not exist.
Related Recommendations (1)
R2
The SCVWD should maintain accurate records that verify the outdoor classroom program attendance to properly evaluate the need for any additional education centers.
F3
The Gold Street Education Center site is located directly adjacent to Director Santos’ mobile home park. Director Santos should have properly recused himself from all aspects of voting, decision making and influencing the project. His failure to recuse himself may have been a violation of conflict-of-interest laws.
Related Recommendations (1)
R3
Director Santos should fully and consistently recuse himself and refrain from otherwise influencing any aspect of the Gold Street Education Center project. Director Santos should adhere to all conflict-of-interest laws and policies to which he is subject. 18
F4
SCVWD directors were aware that Director Santos advocated for the Gold Street site location for the education center. SCVWD directors were also aware that Director Santos had a personal financial interest in the adjacent mobile home park and that Director Santos did not recuse himself from voting on Gold Street Education Center consistently or otherwise refrain from influencing the decision making regarding the project. The directors failed in their fiduciary responsibility to the SCVWD and their constituents by acquiescing to Director Santos’ promotion of the Gold Street Education Center project at considerable expense to rate payers.
Related Recommendations (1)
R4
The SCVWD Board should re-evaluate its commitment to the Gold Street project given Director Santos’ conduct and Board members’ acquiescence to Director Santos’ inappropriate involvement in the project.
F5
Director Santos has significant property interests in Alviso that greatly limit his ability to ethically participate in SCVWD projects in Alviso. Under Board governance policies, the Board commits itself and its members to ethical, businesslike, and lawful conduct including that members must have loyalty to the SCVWD unconflicted by personal interests. Director Santos’ conduct with respect to Alviso-based projects does not adhere to Board policies.
Related Recommendations (1)
R5
If Director Santos cannot conform to Board governance policies because his conflicts of interest are too pervasive, he should either divest himself of his property interests or resign from the SCVWD Board.
F6
Director Santos has been attending the Alviso and Lower Guadalupe Collaborative meetings, Alviso Water Task Force meetings, and other community meetings. At these meetings, he has berated SCVWD staff, and advanced personal or other interests without explicit SCVWD Board authorization, which is a violation of the SCVWD Board’s code of conduct, per Board Governance Policy 6.
Related Recommendations (1)
R6
At these meetings, Director Santos should adhere to the conduct required of him by SCVWD Board Governance Policy 6. 19
F7
On June 6, 2006, the SCVWD Board minutes reflect that Director Santos abstained from voting on portions of the budget related to the Alviso Slough Restoration Project. Later, on Oct. 14, 2008, SCVWD Board minutes reflect that Director Santos voted in favor of the SCVWD’s Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) that included funding for improvements to the Alviso Slough, even though he had abstained from that vote in 2006. On Nov. 10, 2009, Director Santos voted to approve the specific ASRP plan, after having abstained in 2006.
Related Recommendations (1)
R7
Director Santos should fully and consistently recuse himself and refrain from otherwise influencing any aspect of a project in which he has declared a conflict of interest, such as the ASRP.
F8
Director Santos is a long-time member and staunch advocate of the South Bay Yacht Club, a nonprofit organization. As a member of the SCVWD Board, he has advocated that the Board fund improvements to the SBYC and its clubhouse at both SCVWD Board and community meetings. His unconflicted loyalty is owed to the SCVWD (Board Policy 6.1), but his demonstrated allegiance has been to the SBYC.
Related Recommendations (1)
R8
Director Santos should adhere to SCVWD Board Governance Policy 6.1 that requires him to be unconflicted by loyalties to other organizations. In order to abide by this policy, he should recuse himself from discussing, voting, or influencing the SCVWD regarding the SBYC to avoid the actual or appearance of ethical impropriety.
F9
The SCVWD Board did not adhere to its own good governance policies when it acquiesced to Director Santos’ promotion of projects where it was apparent he had personal and/or financial interests.

R9
The SCVWD Board should consistently adhere to its own governance policies.

CL10 Page 17The SCVWD is charged with the responsibility to provide a safe sufficient water supply, adequate flood control and watershed stewardship. The public should be able to trust that SCVWD Board members have the interest of the entire county as their primary focus. Director Santos has steered far afield of these core objectives. He has failed to uphold his ethical obligations to the SCVWD, the citizens of the county and the majority of the citizens of District 3 through his conduct. The Gold Street Education Center project should not go forward. The SCVWD has not demonstrated the need for an additional education center. There is no evidence that this center would receive enough use to justify the $1.1 million to $1.3 million to construct the center and the ongoing expenses to maintain it. The Grand Jury notes that the project will be located directly adjacent to the Summerset Mobile Home Park in which Director Santos has a significant financial interest. The project would provide a park- like setting at the entrance to the Summerset Mobile Home Park. On matters where Director Santos has a personal financial interest, any recusal from voting or discussions must be for the entire process. Recusal once or twice is not sufficient. He has demonstrated an inconsistent pattern of adhering to the rules of recusal and abstention as they relate to conflicts of interest. He must recuse himself each and every time the matter is being addressed by the Board and not participate in discussions on that topic at the Board level or at community meetings. The Grand Jury questions whether it is appropriate for Director Santos to participate in AWTF meetings because he can influence the positions and expectations of its members without full SCVWD Board authorization. We also question whether it is appropriate for Director Santos to attend Collaborative meetings because evidence exists that he is promoting his position on matters discussed and he has berated SCVWD staff at these meetings to further his personal objectives. He is interfering with SCVWD staffs’ objectives to negotiate for the SCVWD to reach common solutions with the Alviso community. In addition, because Director Santos and his relatives have significant financial interests in Alviso, it is impossible for him to represent his Alviso constituency without either an actual conflict or the appearance of a conflict. Attending AWTF and Collaborative meetings provides Director Santos with a stage to promote projects that would benefit his personal financial interests outside the scrutiny of a publicly noticed SCVWD Board meeting. His actions may create mistrust of SCVWD actions as a whole among citizens of the county. This Grand Jury believes that Director Santos’ participation in the AWTF and the Collaborative concurrently with his SCVWD Board position may be inappropriate given his significant financial interests in Alviso. 17 Findings and Recommendations Finding 1 The SCVWD plans to build an additional outdoor education center (Gold Street Education Center) at a cost of between $1.1 million and $1.3 million in Alviso. The attendance data provided by SCVWD for the existing education centers do not support the need for another education center.
