Pomona Heights Land Held by Receiver
The North Yakima and East Selah Irrigation project known as the Clark O Bryan project is placed in the hands of a receiver with J T Handsaker named as agent to hold all company property until further notice. Receiver action complicates water access for landowners seeking cultivation and raises questions about trusteeship to protect contracts and time for development. Attorney Snively says the move aligns with expectations and serves landowners by stabilizing control.
