Leslie Jordan has a long and varied career as a water resource specialist, with expert knowledge in water treatment, environmental awareness, and hazardous materials. Currently a water resources specialist with MCSI Water Systems, Jordan has also held similar positions with Gavilan College, Carmel Area Wastewater District, and California American Water. Repairing San Juan Bautista's poor water quality has been a main concern for its leaders, and Jordan is committed to work “one step at a time” resolving the city's high nitrate levels, which can threaten the safety of drinking water. Jordan told San Benito Live that San Juan Bautista has some “big issues for a small town.”

From Benito Link...
As negotiations over countywide fire protection services continue for a fourth month under a new City Council, the city of Hollister is proposing a new deal to San Juan Bautista and San Benito County.
Lacking a quorum for its April 7 meeting, members of a San Juan Bautista city council committee dealing with growth informally discussed changes to a memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the city and the San Benito County Board of Supervisors.
San Benito County is moving forward with plans to clear homeless encampments along the San Benito River in the third week of April. The effort will involve the cities of Hollister and San Juan Bautista, following an agreement reached on April 2. The San Benito High School District will also participate in future collaborative work between the agencies.
The complications of maintaining San Juan Bautista’s historic look and feel were fully displayed during a hybrid meeting of the city’s Historic Resources Board and Planning Commission. The main topic of discussion was… paint.
265 days. That is how long San Benito County and San Juan Bautista were given until their fire service contract with the city of Hollister ends—unless they agree on new terms. Not only are the services in San Juan Bautista and unincorporated areas in limbo, so is a feasibility study to form a county-wide fire district.
