Council unanimously approves closure of sewer escrow account
Summary
The Village Council adopted Resolution 2026-13 to close the sewer escrow bank account after finding the funds had been expended per prior court orders and council authorization; the roll call vote was 6-0-0.
The Village of Lake Isabella Village Council on July 21 adopted Resolution 2026-13 authorizing closure of the village Sewer Escrow bank account after determining the account had fulfilled its intended purpose.
Interim Village Manager Manley reviewed the history of the Sewer Escrow Fund and said the funds had been expended in accordance with prior court orders and council authorization, leaving only a nominal balance. Councilmember Lahti moved to adopt Resolution 2026-13; Councilmember Peavey seconded. A roll call vote recorded YEAS from Cueny, Lahti, Laraway, Peavey, Shannon and Torgerson; NAYS: none. The motion carried 6-0-0.
Why it matters: the closure finalizes oversight of a specific escrow account that had been used to hold funds tied to prior court orders; no dollar amount for the remaining balance was recorded in the minutes.
Next steps: the resolution authorizes closure of the account; the minutes do not record an effective date or further implementation steps.
