	Frank Scolari email: frankscolari@gmail.com tel: (707) 442-7052 Re-Elected November 2015 Term Expires December 2020	I am grateful for the opportunity to serve the HCSD since 1995; having been elected to six 4-year terms. During this time, my focus and dedication have been on putting customer needs first - always striving to maintain the lowest possible rates yet still provide excellent service. A native Californian born and raised in the San Jose area, I attended San Jose State University until serving in the Army during the Korean War. I married my high-school sweetheart while in the army, and after my discharge, my wife and I raised three boys and two girls. During the early years, I worked in the Bay Area banking industry. Eventually, we decided we wanted a better environment for our children. After searching upp California, we chose to settle in the Eureka area in 1970. The first four years, I sold cars at Harper Ford. In 1974, I entered the real estate market with Cutten Realty. I quickly obtained my Real Estate Broker License and retired forty years later in 2014. My wife and I have enjoyed a wonderful life together, especially spending time in our second home in Brookings, Oregon with frequent travel to Mexico, British Columbia Canada, and with friends and relatives throughout the nation. Life is good.
	Alan Bongio email: abongio@humboldtcsd.org tel: (707) 443-4558 x 280 Re-Elected November 2018 Term Expires December 2022	Born and raised within District boundaries, I graduated from Eureka High School in 1984 and HSU in 1991 with a degree in Political Science and a minor in economics. In 1989 established Bongio Construction and have developed approximately 50 properties within the District under District Codes, Regulations, Permitting, etc. In 2002, following my father Aldo's footsteps, I began serving on the HCSD Board of Directors always striving to ensure compliance and set policies to keep water and sewer rates as low as possible while maintaining excellent service to the District's customers. I also currently serve on the Humboldt County Planning Commission and have served as a Board Member with the North Coast Homebuilders and St. Bernard's Catholic School. Years of practical experience and institutional knowledge of the District are strengths I possess that will ensure continued leadership for the customers of the District. On a personal level, I have been married to my wife, Mary, since 1991, and we have two wonderful sons, Logan and Luke. I have been active in youth sports for many years coaching soccer, baseball, and football. In my free time, I also enjoy fishing, hunting, and snow skiing.
