City eyes annexation after nursing home bid loss
Beverly Enterprises moves to annex into Venice after losing an industrial revenue bond bid with Sutter County for a $3 million 120 unit nursing home along the Venice By Way. A lawsuit was dropped in exchange for rehearing the case, but county officials again rejected the project citing funding and land use issues. Ground breaking must occur by Sept 9 to keep the state issued certificate of need, while Venice council weighs water and sewer requirements including a lift station.
