San Marcos council reports closed-session discussion and settlement direction in lawsuit against Gringo Industries
Summary
The City Council reconvened from closed session and reported it discussed pending litigation under Government Code section 54956.9(d)(1) — City of San Marcos v. Gringo Industries, Inc. and Hector Rubio — and provided direction to the city attorney on settlement parameters; no further reportable action was disclosed.
The San Marcos City Council reconvened from closed session at the start of the Jan. 28 meeting and reported it had discussed pending litigation under Government Code section 54956.9(d)(1).
The city’s closed-session report stated the matter discussed was "City of San Marcos v. Gringo Industries, Inc. and Hector Rubio," in the San Diego County Superior Court, North County Division. The council met with the city attorney and provided direction on settlement parameters to be presented to the defendants. The city attorney reported there was no further reportable action from closed session.
City Attorney (reported in the meeting as Mrs. Peake) delivered the closed-session statement to the council and public. The council did not disclose settlement terms or any vote during the session beyond saying it had provided direction to the city attorney; the transcript records only the closed-session reconvening announcement and the statement that "there was no further report."
