Structure
It is governed by a locally elected Board of Directors. The members of the Board are directly accountable to the residents of the community. As of 2010, the President of the Board is William R. Mills. His Vice President is Michael J. Beverage, and the other three members of the board are Ric Collett, Phil Hawkins and John W. Summerfield, whose titles are all Director. The YLWD Board has five Directors elected to four-year terms by the registered voters within the District. The Board establishes policies and programs leading to the achievement of the District's mission. The Yorba Linda Water District Board of Director's meetings are held on the second and fourth Thursdays of each month. The Board of Directors Committee meetings are held monthly. These meetings are held at the District office located at 1717 E. Miraloma Ave. in Placentia.
The departments operating under the board's direction are administration, engineering, finance, human resources, information technology, and operations.

Famous quotes containing the word structure:
“A committee is organic rather than mechanical in its nature: it is not a structure but a plant. It takes root and grows, it flowers, wilts, and dies, scattering the seed from which other committees will bloom in their turn.”
—C. Northcote Parkinson (1909–1993)
“It is difficult even to choose the adjective
For this blank cold, this sadness without cause.
The great structure has become a minor house.
No turban walks across the lessened floors.
The greenhouse never so badly needed paint.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“For the structure that we raise,
Time is with materials filled;
Our to-days and yesterdays
Are the blocks with which we build.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
