    Default Water Cut Off from Shared Well to Prevent Irrigation of Marijuana Crop

    They Can't Do That. Can They? It Did Happen. What "Rights"

    Civil rights violations in the State of CA

    Keep this in mind. "We have human rights to water and sanitation are a part of the right to an adequate standard of living."

    Please look at the statement below it is a direct quote from a set of bylaws belonging to a non incorporated non profit water Association that does not own, rent or lease the well it claims "rights to".

    “Start Statement’s”
    ARTICLE II OBJECTIVES
    Section 1: The object of the organization shall be to establish all policy matters and to control the use of the water system, its maintenance and repair.
    Section 2: The use of the water shall be limited to normal and usual domestic use.

    Section 1: The water system consists of three (3) wells, a water distribution piping system and storage tanks and shall provide the total yield to all members Ownership of this water system shall be held jointly by all members of the association with consideration of the other members. Ownership of the water rights shall remain with the land. “End statement‘s”

    With the foregoing in mind, I am going to share what happened.

    One of 11 people being a true appurtenant to a well “right owner" named in a 1985 Grant of Easement was growing Medical Marijuana. (Med. Mj.) A fake non profit Water Association's so called President took it upon herself that she was going to wager war on the "Pot Growers" as she had titled them. If the pot was going to be used for Medical purposes and growing it was in violation of the law that is the property owners "right of free choice", rite. Anyway, that is how I saw it.

    Moving forward, I own one well the Association extracts water from. The leader of the ill defined Association decided she was going to see an Attorney regarding the use of water for Med. Mj.. I was invited to go meet with the Attorney and I did. The Attorney looked over two separate Grants of easements that clearly do not name the Association as a benefaction having any "Right’s" as outlined in the documents. The Attorney also looked at the "bylaws" of the non profit. The Attorney was very clear when he stated the Association is not and was not set up correctly and does not own a right to use the easements. My title does not name the Association as a HOA. I have no stock in the Association and there is no agreement between any "appurtenant right owners" that yield the "Granted appurtenant easements rights" to the Association.

    More info, the so called President sent out a ballot that was not and is not named as a valid way to vote as described within the bylaws. The ballot asked "Should *** members up hold by-laws regarding domestic use of the water?". Within a short time period the President who's term in office had expired in 2006 had never called for a meeting had taken it upon her self to tell a easement owner he was appointed as maintenance man. He was not voted in as the by-laws state need be. She then used him to cut the water supply line to the Med. Mj. grower. Remember the statement from the by-laws “Ownership of the water rights shall remain with the land.”

    The Association did not own the property where the water line was cut. ( vandalism) The Association has a lock the well there by stopping the easement owner from accessing the water supply. (trespass) The association told the property owner get rid of the “commercial use” as in embedded plants in soil and your water will stay on. I think that maybe that could be construed as an (attempted extortion) as in “do it or harm will come to you“. To quote “Ownership of the water rights shall remain with the land.” if the water right remains with the land how does the Association have a right to declare how the water is use?

    The severing of a water line not owned by the Association has caused mental and monetary harm. The line had been in use for over 35 years and was attached as an "appurtenant property right" form the well to two storage tanks that sit on a utility easement that was dedicated on March 18, 1971 and has been is use from that date. The property owner called the Sheriff and he claimed it was a civil matter. The lady who's water line was cut had to abandoned her property because she could not live there without water. She need help. She is 70 years old and on a fixed income.

    Any ideas on what Government agency she can compel to restore her rights and her water supply?
