3. As a Veolia Water Idaho Inc. ratepayer, Sharon has a direct and substantial interest in
this matter. In addition, because non-potable irrigation water is unavailable at our
location for landscaping purposes, the proposed water rate increase will have a
disproportionate effect on our household and others similady situated.
4. In water rate cases of Veolia Water Idaho Inc.os predecessors, including United Water
Idaho and Boise Water Corporation, Sharon served as an official intervenor on behalf
of the water utility's ratepayers. Sharon understands the ratemaking process and has
more than three decades of knowledge of the impacted community. Sharon has also
served two terms (six years) as an elected Ada County commissioner. Granting
Sharon's Petition to Intervene will not unduly broaden the issues, nor will it prejudice
any party to this case.
5. Sharon M. Ullman intends to fully participate in this matter as a party.
WHEREF'ORE, Sharon M. Ullman respectfully requests this Commission grant
this Petition to Intervene.
DATED this 86 day of Nove,nrber 2022.
/s/ Sharon M. Ullman
