Court Decision Clears The Way For Annexation
Judge Cecil Mosbacher of Alameda County Superior Court yesterday ruled Hunt Foods Inc and two other major landowners can withdraw from Cherryland County Water District. The decision voids the district’s argument that remaining in the district benefits fire protection and water projects, potentially affecting a large water main and hydrants planned for the A street Hathway Avenue area. Everett Silver, chair, said a possible appeal and a city water system cost estimate from Hayward loom as district finances face changes.
