SUB's services are provided under the direction of five Springfield citizens who are elected to four-year terms and serve without pay. Rates, policies, and procedures for each of SUB's services are formulated and adopted by the Board. These policies are on file at SUB's main office and are available for public review.

Bobbie Jean Adams, Vice-Chair

Virginia Lauritsen
Position #2, Term expires 12/31/2014
A native of Springfield, Virginia's career in law took her away from the area for twenty years. Over those years, she has held titles such as Contracts Engineer, In-House Counsel, Executive Vice President, and Chief Financial Officer. Having returned to her home, Virginia's interest in environmental science and natural resources, plus her business and law background, led her to serve on Springfield's Drinking Water Protection Task Force. In 1999, Virginia took on a new title – member of the SUB Board of Directors.

Joe and his wife Julie moved to Springfield in 1991, after his retirement.
