Public comment on any item under the jurisdiction of the Committee and not on this agenda (speakers may be limited to three minutes). |
| |
Leland Frayseth addressed the Committee raising several issues:
- On the issue of the recent State Route 4 shootings, he expressed concern that as a public asset, there was an obligation for all affected public agencies to address the issue. (The Committee indicated that the appropriate County Departments were involved in responding to the situation.),
- On the issue of the Board of Supervisor's May 24th closed session discussion regarding the Metropolitan Water District potential purchase of Delta islands, he indicated that he would like more information than what was reported out. (The Committee indicated that any court filings are public information.), and
- On the issue of water quality on Bethel Island in the event of a flood, he indicated that the State has responded to his concerns, but not the County. (The Committee indicated that in this case, given the jurisdiction of the issue, the State is the appropriate agency to contact.)
