SAFECA directors disclose recusals on East Levy Road items; counsel reports absent directors did not receive materials
Summary
During closed session on Jan. 16, several directors announced recusals under '84308' for matters involving East Levy Road properties. Counsel later reported three directors were not present for those discussions and did not receive materials.
At the Jan. 16 meeting of the Sacramento Flood Control Agency Board of Directors, multiple directors announced recusals for closed‑session items related to properties on East Levy Road. The announcements referenced "pursuant to 84308" as the basis for recusal.
Specifically, a director announced a recusal citing a potential conflict on items dealing with 5625 East Levy Road and 5311 East Levy Road. Other directors stated they would recuse themselves from discussions regarding "any interest of myself or my family" and from items associated with East Lehi (Levy) Road. The board recessed to closed session for the identified matters.
When the board reconvened, counsel reported that Directors Kaplan, Dickinson and Abdis were not present in the room for the discussions related to the three East Lehi Road items and did not receive any materials related to the actions discussed in closed session.
No formal action or vote on the merits of the East Levy Road items was recorded in the open session minutes or on the audio transcript; the record reflects only the recusal announcements and the counsel’s report about who was absent for closed‑session discussions.
