Every current LACSD (Lake Arrowhead Community Services District) Board member appears to be serving by appointment rather than by a contested election. According to the District’s own board roster, all five current directors were either appointed or appointed in lieu of election.
Current LACSD Board Members:
Division 1 — Steve Boydston, President

Division 2 — Jacqueline Brown, Director
Division 3 — Michelle Ambrozic, Director

Division 4 — John Wurm, Vice President
Division 5 — Eric Chappell, Director

That matters. LACSD controls decisions affecting water, sewer service, infrastructure, contracts, spending authority, property acquisition, employee compensation, and long-term planning for Lake Arrowhead. Yet the entire current Board appears to be unelected by the voters in a contested race.
Three seats appear headed for the November 3, 2026 General Election:
Division 2 — Jacqueline Brown
Division 3 — Michelle Ambrozic
Division 5 — Eric Chappell
The regular candidate filing period is expected to open July 13, 2026 and close August 7, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. If an eligible incumbent does not file, the deadline is typically extended to August 12, 2026 for non-incumbent candidates.
Residents who want transparency, accountability, and independent oversight should begin paying attention now. Meaningful change does not happen after the filing deadline passes. It starts when qualified community members step forward, run for office, and give voters a real choice.
A team of concerned homeowners, together with Arrowhead Woods Informed, is ready to help residents who are considering running for the LACSD Board. Anyone interested in learning more, understanding the filing process, or exploring whether they live in one of the 2026 divisions should reach out early so the community has time to organize and support qualified candidates.
