The utility district was at that time, I think probably still is, probably the second largest taxpayer in Amador County. Maybe that s changed now, but in those days, there was a lumber company that was a bigger taxpayer, but that was the only one. Essentially what happened is that the utility district, in acquiring the property for the Pardee Reservoir back in the twenties and the early thirties, had acquired one piece of property that had a characteristic that the counties called a "water righ...t. " It wasn t a water right, but they called it a water right, and they taxed it as a water right. They put an enormously large value on it. When Jack Reilley got wind of it, he wanted to do something about it, and that started several years of arguments. Essentially, what the utility district had done was to condemn a piece of property that was owned by a man named Lloyd Thayer, who was a kind of an entrepreneurial type, who was aware that in the twenties, East Bay was coming up onto the Mokelumne to build this big enterprise, and he bought a piece of property which looked like it might be a moderately decent damsite 136 downstream from Pardee.
