The Solano County Water Agency Board of Directors told its staff not to continue discussions with California Forever regarding their proposed development project in eastern Solano County. At a regular meeting of the board Thursday evening, over 90 attendees and public commenters filled the meeting room, spilling out into the hallway as the zoom room exceeded its capacity of 100 throughout most of the evening, leaving some citizens unable to access the meeting in real-time. … Friday morning, California Forever released a statement to their website which indicated they will seek other water sources. “Regrettably, under pressure from a vocal group of opponents of the project, the board declined staff’s recommendation to continue discussions with us,” the statement reads, “so we are proceeding with other water supply options we have been considering.”
