Board approves water construction contract for Tract 18806; vote did not meet full‑board majority requirement
Summary
The Big Bear City CSD Board voted 2–1 to approve a water construction contract for Tract 18806 after committee review, but the minutes state the action did not meet Government Code Section 61045's requirement for a majority of the board's total membership.
General Manager Glenn Jacklin reported that the Water Committee had met on March 31, 2025 to review a proposed water construction contract for Tract 18806 and summarized updates for the full Board.
Director Larry Walsh questioned contract language in section 5.9 concerning water rights and raised concerns about potential conflicts with state mandates and enforcement. The minutes record that public comment was heard during the discussion.
On a motion by Director Al Ziegler, seconded by Vice‑President Bob Rowe, the Board recorded a vote of Rowe and Ziegler in favor and Walsh opposed. According to the minutes, the motion passed by a majority of members present but did not meet Government Code Section 61045, which requires a majority of the board’s total membership to take action. The minutes do not state further steps or whether the Board planned to re‑vote to satisfy the statutory threshold.
