Ontario council authorizes litigation against INO Networks (doing business as Onward)
Summary
After closed session, the council voted to authorize initiation of litigation against INO Networks, doing business as Onward, a reportable action disclosed by the assistant city attorney.
The Ontario City Council authorized the initiation of litigation against INO Networks, doing business as Onward, city officials said after a closed-session review.
Assistant City Attorney (unnamed) reported to the council that there was “one reportable action” taken in closed session and stated, “The city council did authorize the initiation of litigation against INO networks doing business as onward.” The attorney did not provide additional public details about the legal claims during the open meeting.
Mayor Leon recessed the meeting to closed session to consider an item described under the Government Code provision for anticipated litigation (Gov. Code §54956.9). The council returned to public session at the scheduled time and the assistant city attorney presented the outcome.
The reportable action was the only closed-session item announced; the assistant city attorney confirmed that the council had authorized bringing a lawsuit but gave no timeline for filing and did not disclose further legal theory or defendants beyond the business name reported to the record.
The meeting record will include the closed-session minutes and any written materials filed with the city clerk; two written public comments were also entered into the record during the meeting. The council took no further public action on related matters that evening.
