Attorney General Suit Sets El Camino Bond Hearing
A pre trial conference in the state Attorney General's suit against Glenn County Board of Supervisors and El Camino Irrigation District is set for April 17 at 9 a.m. Judge Roy G. MacFarland will hear the case over the district's failure to levy assessments to cover decades old bond debt. Gregory Stout represents the district and board and says about 15 witnesses will be called. The suit traces back to a 1929 real estate collapse and long disputes over Water Code assessments and delinquent bonds.
