Summary

The Sweetwater Authority board approved a staff recommendation to relinquish certain water facilities to the San Diego Unified Port District; Director Castaneda recused because of a contractual relationship between his company and the port district.

The Sweetwater Authority board approved a consent item authorizing the general manager to relinquish specified water facilities to the San Diego Unified Port District. Director Castaneda publicly registered a recusal before the consent vote, saying his company has a contractual agreement with the port district.

Chair and staff accepted the recusal and proceeded with the consent calendar items. The board voted on consent items including 7.3; the roll call recorded the item as passing with Director Castaneda recused from the specific item.

The meeting record does not list the full legal description of the facilities being relinquished in the spoken record; details are in the staff packet included with the agenda. The board took no other amendments or conditions on the action during the meeting.

Because the item was on the consent calendar, there was limited public discussion at the dais. The recusal was noted for the record before the vote and the clerk recorded the recusal in the roll call for item 7.3.
