Calaveras County Water District Introduces Framework of New Business Plan |
|
Posted by: thepinetree on 03/27/2014 12:37 PM
|
San Andreas, CA...At the March 26 Board meeting CCWD General Manager Mitch Dion and Director of Administrative Services Jeff Meyer introduced the framework of the new business plan to avoid the need to increase the District’s Operations & Maintenance (O&M) Budget by nearly $2 million dollars by Fiscal Year 2017-18. The plan outlined reduction efforts that included reducing personnel by consolidating positions as retirements occur and improving the automated processes for purchasing, maintenance management and information management. Mitch Dion stated the District has lacked the ability to use existing data to make better decisions. A key point of the presentation was that sometimes less is more. “Reducing costs by nearly $2 million is more than a great goal, it requires focus and discipline. This is an exciting time to improve the services while avoiding additional cost increases;” said Dion...

Tax Tips From GAIL’S TAXES in Arnold, CA |
|
Posted by: thepinetree on 03/26/2014 11:13 AM
|
Arnold, CA...Did you file a 2010 Federal Tax Return? As many as 86,500 people in California did not, and the deadline for filing and receiving a refund is April 15, 2014. Many taxpayers do not file because they are below the filing requirement. However, if federal or state taxes were withheld, you are entitled to get a refund. You may also be eligible for applicable credits, such as the IRS Earned Income Credit, and get back more than your withholding amount. The IRS states they have more than $69 million dollars waiting to be claimed by Californians and will be forfeited after April 15. Call Gail Lee at 209-795-5315 to see if this affects you.
