The candidate pool for the vacant Santa Clara Valley Water District 1 seat, has been narrowed from 21 to five. The Board is set to make the appointment tomorrow afternoon.
The final five candidates, all of which received at least three votes during the candidate screening process earlier this week, are:
Morgan Hill Council Member Rich Constantine, President of the Santa Clara County Farm Bureau Erin Gil, and Campbell Council Member Jeff Cristina who, if appointed will have to relocate. Also in the running are John Varela, who is backed by the Morgan Hill Chamber of Commerce and Tom Cruz.
If the Water District Board Members cannot make a decision on who to appoint by January 4, 2016, the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors will make the determination.
