Water sale and recreation plan for Coyote Dam debated
Trustees from Mendocino and Sonoma counties met in Ukiah to discuss selling water from Coyote Valley dam and potential recreation development. Col. Graf of the army engineers said decisions rest with Mendocino County, Gianelli warned of mutual county sharing, and Northern Marin was a potential buyer. The Park Service and state showed no interest, leaving Ukiah to possibly take over recreation efforts. Stan Stafford proposed city involvement if feasible, noting Ukiah currently leads organized recreation.
