Legal Cost of Danny and Patt Flunker to the WOWSC and POA Members

We estimate that these 2 have cost the WO-PAO and WOWSC close to $2 million in legal fees over the years…..lets see

Rate Appeal – Both Flunkers have state that the WOWSC had spent over $1.8 million on the Rate Appeal case…….Question….. What were the true financial benefit received  for such a  huge spend??

  1. Members will only receive a total of $890,000 in refunds over the 45 months, while rates will  only be lower for 12 months, then will increase significantly  in 2025, 2026 and 2027… in the end this will only generate a member saving of $718/member
  2. Member will be paying a Legal Surcharge of $39.21/month/45 months  ($478,000)…. or cost each member $1741/member in total……..
  3. The WOWSC only received a $38,000 from the civil case, which cost you over $230k to defend or $718/member less the $136/member from the Settlement

Other legal action that shows ZERO/LOSS in beefits

  1. Those 2  caused a $14,000+ legal/accounting spending on an IRS audit that will produce nothing. Source Carlton  Legal Invoices available online for review.   Alan  Hicks should be paying this bill….. for he initiated this Audit – with Ms. Flunkers help…. don’t you remember in the Board meeting where Mr. Flunker stood up and said ” I will be contacting the IRS, about our Tax filings”…. she made Alan Hicks put his name to it, leaving him holding the bag.  All of this without Member approval. This cost you  $50/member… thanks Alan
  2. The legal spend on PIA – Public Information Requests…. over 80% of the current Legal costs on PIA requests can be directly contributed to both of them  – Source Carlton  Legal Invoices available online for review. This cost you $68/member
  3. Member Interventions – Who gave Ms. Flunker the right to intervene on PUC dockets without an overall member approval? She claims to be a Rate Payer Representative…. but we never gave her the right to spend our money because she does not like a Board or PUC outcome/ruling. One intervention alone with cost you $29,000 in legal fees or $104/member
  4. In late 2023, the WOWSC spent $25,000 on a Removal Petition initiated by Ms Patti Flunker on a false narrative that simply did not work. This cost you $89/member. Source Legal Records from LG and Frank Reilly
  5. The  2 POA law suits that were caused by the actions of Danny Flunker costs the POA members about $110/member . Source – Legal Defendent costs and out comes

In 45 months each member will have  paid an additional $1,918.00/member in legal fees, filings and PUC orders! That is above and beyond what your Water/Sewer rates are. I have better thing to do with my money then fund bad lawsuits, filings, and BS from the Flunkers

The list can go on…. but more importantly…. when does it stop Danny and Patti
