California Forever removes initiative from November Ballot

Originally hoping to secure zoning approval this year, then work on an EIR and Development Agreement in 2025 and 2026, the organization will now attempt to secure those first. The letter still makes clear that California Forever is eager to stay in the county and work to make the East Solano Plan a reality.

“We recognize now that it is possible to reorder these steps without impacting our ambitious timeline,” Sramek wrote.

Oh, also good that someone's paying attention to the finances:

The county estimates that the project’s first phase would have led to an estimated annual fiscal deficit of $5.9 million for the county and $6.5 million for the fire district, and the full buildout to annual deficits of $103.1 million and $88.8 million, respectively.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
