California Water Service Group expanded its board from ten to eleven directors and elected Jeffrey Kightlinger, a former chief executive of the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, effective November 1, 2023. The filing describes a governance change with no financial figures attached, so its direct effect on shareholders appears limited.
On October 25, 2023, the Board voted to increase its size from ten to eleven directors and elect Jeffrey Kightlinger, 63, effective November 1, 2023.

He will receive non-employee director compensation under the arrangements described in the April 19, 2023 proxy statement, and the company intends to sign its standard indemnification agreement with him.
A press release announcing the election was issued October 26, 2023 and is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
