The Tracy City Council voted in closed session on Nov. 18 to approve a $220,000 settlement with Pacific Gas and Electric Company to resolve pending eminent‑domain claims, Assistant City Attorney Green reported. "By a vote of 4 to 0 with 1 recusal...the city council approved a settlement in the amount of $220,000 whereby Pacific Gas and Electric Company shall pay the city such amount in exchange for a release of any and all related imminent domain claims," Green said.
Green identified the case as Pacific Gas and Electric Company v. City of Tracy et al., Case No. STK‑CV‑UED‑2023‑0012382 in the Superior Court of California, County of San Joaquin. She told the council the approval "does not result in a financial loss to the city."
