Monday meeting
Tom Neisler made his speech in front of the city :
“Our message is simple,” Neisler said during public comments at the July 1 Council meeting. “Continued litigation will not create new water for the city or the district or resolve other outstanding issues. Our constituents deserve better. We encourage the city's leaders to reconsider your relationship with the district. Weaponizing the grand jury, playing politics, and pursuing meritless litigation to solve the city's disagreements with the district is not a benefit to our taxpayers nor a good use of their resources. Instead, we invite the city to approach water supply issues collaboratively with a goal of maximizing the beneficial use of this limited resource without harm to the basin or other water users.”
The messages are loud and clear , WD want to settle with the city for the sage ranch . WD is not hostage against the city or SR. and i heard the rumor that WD may drop the 4th cause today .

Dearlol's "rumor" that the Water District was "dropping" the fourth cause of action, thus clearing the way for Sage Ranch, was about as believable as his claim that he hired a legal firm for an opinion on the EIR. Does he really think the readers of this board are that gullible?

The only mention Tom Niesler had referencing Sage Ranch was the Judge's order that the EIR be rescinded and all approvals for Sage Ranch be voided. Or did he actually say, "I'm happy to report that after spending well over a million dollars in legal fees we want to forget about everything and let's get started on Sage Ranch". Yes, I believe that is what he said.
