Summary

Staff presented a drafted response to a Burt Harris claim from Machaira Ridge declining to grant a requested third access but proposing alternative discussions; staff also recommended participating in the supermarket opioid settlement. Both items were moved to Thursday's consent agenda.

County counsel previewed a proposed response to a Burt Harris Act claim filed by Machaira Ridge related to the county's denial of a third access to their subdivision. Counsel said the subdivision has been completed and accepted for maintenance and that the proposed response does not offer the requested third access but suggests other areas for negotiation; staff will transmit the response to Machaira Ridge if the board approves it on Thursday.

Separately, staff recommended the county accept participation in the proposed supermarket opioid settlement structure; counsel said accepting the agreement would position the county to receive allocated funds when final distributions occur. Both items were forwarded to Thursday's consent agenda for formal action.
