Why Varni is NO GOOD for Oceano

Charles Varni - Source of chaos, civic and personal destruction & why he must be defeated to END this public embarrassment and destruction.

Varni's past history - Bad omen for recent Oceano disaster: Pre-OCSD involvement 2018-2022 destructive history in Santa Maria Valley

• Santa Maria Valley Water Board

• Destructive history on Oceano Advisory Council which led to the council becoming unrecognized in 2022

Varni led costly 2020 & 2022 opposition to the Oceano Fire Safety Tax. Defeat of Measures has adversely affected our Fire Safety and Lengthened ambulance response times. The defeat of the Measures has closed the local Oceano Fire Station.

• Led opposition to 2020 Fire Safety Tax

• Led opposition to 2022 Fire Safety Tax

Varni's 2022 election to OCSD Board was based on false promises.

• Campaigned for election on issues beyond the purview of OCSD's legal authority - Political trickery or personal ambition?

• All of Varni's campaign promises are UNFULFILLED - no surprise! They were all smoke and mirrors!

Varni's tenure has been marked by chaos, illegality, personal attacks on the public, fellow Board Members, and District Staff.

First year on OCSD Board - 2022

• Baseless harassment campaign against OCSD General Manager Will Clemens led to Clemen's resignation.

• Repeated violation of Brown Act and disclosure of confidential meeting activity and personnel matters let to Board chaos and complaints to Grand Jury and District Attorney.

• Blatant disregard of Legal Counsel's advice let to resignation of Legal Council.

• Mistreatment of women - fellow Board Members and the public

Varni's attempted annexation GIVEAWAY - rightly & resoundingly rejected - he will continue to promote the GIVEAWAY if elected.

• Sponsored Jimmy Paulding's roundly rejected Grover Beach annexation proposal.

Varni's opposition to 2020 & 2022 tax disaster followed by Varni's leadership in surrendering OCSD's assets, Fire Station, and administrative office buildings.

• Presided over surrender of OCSD Fire Station and building assets to the County.

Varni's retention will threaten Oceano's independence and the way of life of our residents.

• Varni will resurrect his attempt to GIVEAWAY Oceano to Grover Beach via reviving Jimmy Paulding's annexation proposal.

• Varni wants to close the Airport, the Sanitation Plant and drive out middle class workers and residents.
