Public dwell on the negatives From Page Al
In Medina and Son's co op governance, trustee Art Rodarte defends service to the community amid employee scrutiny. Juan Valdez, a trustee and contractor, already provided a boring machine during a January 1999 line failure in Angel Fire, enabling 1,500 feet of cable replacement and a rapid power restart. Valdez received 4,585 dollars for the job, charged the same as others. Manuel Medina, with access to a crane, would have handled a stalled transformer upgrade on Angel Fire mountain if not for locating alternative equipment, reflecting emergency aid by co op trustees.
