Zone 7 alleges Pleasanton failed to pay $18.5 million in fees
The Zone 7 Water Agency last month sued the city of Pleasanton alleging it failed to pay the agency over $18 million in fees after Pleasanton increased water meter sizes and connections but failed to properly report those changes. Because the city did not uphold its end of a longstanding agreement, Zone 7’s finances have been heavily impacted and is looking for the city to pay what it owes, and possibly more, according to the petition for writ of mandate and complaint for breach of contract, declaratory relief and failure to perform mandatory duty under state law – a copy of which has been obtained by the Pleasanton Weekly.
