To: Beckie Page, Executive Assistant and Scheduler for Utah Republican Lieutenant Governor Deidre M. Henderson.

Dear Ms. Page,

Thank you for your prompt follow-up reply letter (farther below) to me at 2:08 p.m. Mountain Time today.

In that reply letter, you apparently indicated that your immediate supervisor, the Honorable Utah Lt. Governor Henderson, does not currently seek to arrange for an in-person meeting with me inside her State Government of Utah office in Salt Lake City.

You also indicated in that same follow-up letter to me today that the earlier reply letter I had received from you today, at 12:41 p.m., was exclusively computer-generated and contained the exact same automated message that I normally receive from you.

As a courtesy to yourself, I would like to respectfully point out that the 12:41 p.m. reply you sent me today had stated: "Please log this unless you have already seen it. Thanks. Warm Regards, Beckie Page".

For the sake of comparison, please note the entire text of the body of the automated-reply letter I received from you on Sunday, December 18, at 2:36 p.m. Mountain Time, and which did not contain any such individualized reply from you in regard to me:

If you are contacting our office to invite the lieutenant governor to speak at your event, please complete this online request form; otherwise, I will respond to your email as soon as I am able.

Good afternoon John,

No, I am afraid not. The auto-response email is just to assist people in submitting requests to have the lieutenant governor speak at their event. However, if you would like to speak to someone regarding the topic of proposed water conservation laws, I would like to recommend that you reach out to Ty Howard (tyhoward@utah.gov). He is the Deputy Director of the office of Environmental Quality.

Warm Regards,
Beckie Page

Dear Ms. Page,
Does your reply letter to me today indicate that our very honorable Lieutenant Governor, Deidre Henderson, would like me to schedule an in-person meeting with her?
If so, I would welcome that opportunity for an in-person dialogue with that very influential Republican State of Utah official.
Sincerely and Best Wishes from John Kevin McMillan, the youngest grandson of former Murray (UT) butcher shop owner Parley McMillan, a Mormon gentleman and civic leader in Murray, and his very devoted LDS member wife, Mrs. Alice Mae Pugh (maiden surname) McMillan.

Dear Utah State Rep. Joel Briscoe, Utah State Senator Derek Kitchen, and Utah State Senator-Elect Dr. Jenn Plumb,

As a current or future constituent of each of you, I urge each of you very influential current or future legislstors here in Utah to please author, sponsor, co-sponsor, or advocate for a new state law that will:

---Require an automatic 10 percent increase per unit of water on any and all monthly water bills that are incurred by private citizens or businesses in Utah.

---Require that any land developer or real-estate developer in Utah must provide an annual report to the State of Utah on land-conservation strategies, water-conservation strategies, water-quality enhancement strategies, and air-quality enhancement strategies that each such developer is pursuing.

---Establish a "Utah Water Saver Superfund" that can help enable state and local government agencies throughout Utah to reduce water consumption levels while also improving the quality of tap water, river water, and spring water throughout Utah.

---Impose a Utah Water Saver tax and Utah Air Quality tax on any and all hotel guests renting a hotel room anywhere in Utah, with revenues from that tax going toward the above-cited Superfund and toward state funding for air-quality enhancement projects throughout Utah.

---Require that each and every ski resort in Utah must charge each of their paying guests a cited fee that goes toward the Water Saver Superfund and a possible Utah Air Quality Superfund.

----Invite tax-deductible financial donations to the Water Saver Superfund from private citizens, non-profit foundations, generous religious groups such as the LDS Church, businesses, millionaires, and billionaires residing in Utah, with donations serving as a basis for a deduction from the private citizen's or business donor's annual State of Utah Income Tax payments or State of Utah corporate income tax payments.

---Establish a "Friends of Utah" organization that invites financial donations to that Superfund from out-of-state residents who have visited Utah in order to go skiing here, and who want to help keep the skiing industry and environment as vibrant as possible
here in Utah, and from businesses throughout Utah and the entire USA that profit from tourism in Utah.

---Help finance the proposed Utah Water Saver
Superfund through imposition of a special State of Utah Water Saver Tax on each and every business in Utah that manufactures bottled beverage products or canned beverage products, or that builds swimming pools, or that has been officially cited as a "Water Waster" by a government agency in Utah.

---Establish a fully-staffed "Utah Water Saver Patrol" employing professional investigators who invite "Water Waster" complaints from residents and issue citations to businesses that fail to meet water conservation standards as delineated by the Utah Legislature or the Utah Department of Natural Resources.

---Offer financial incentives to business owners throughout Utah for replacement of current sinks or toilets in their office or workplace with water-saving sinks and water-conserving toilets in each of that business's restrooms.

---Offer financial incentives to retail stores in Utah to discontinue their sale of water-wasteful sinks, water-wasteful toilets, water-wasteful bathtubs, and water-wasteful showers here in Utah, and to instead sell to consumers water-conserving sinks, water-efficient toilets, water-saving bathtubs, and water-saving showers.

---Require the permanent closing of any and all of the so-called "gay bathhouses" of Utah, which are allegedly water-wasteful and allegedly spread sexually-transmitted diseases and other potentially fatal diseases at an unconscionable rate.

I hope these tentatively worded recommendations are helpful to each of you government officials during and before the upcoming 2023 session of the Utah Legislature.

Sincerely and Best Wishes,
John Kevin McMillan, 535 South 200 East, Apt. 912, Ninth Floor, Salt Lake City, UT 84111.
