Council Reports No Action After Closed Session on Potential Litigation Related to Cannabis Selection Process
Summary
Council recessed to closed session to discuss anticipated litigation—twelve potential cases—related to the retail cannabis selection process and a separate threat to public services; upon reconvening Mayor Minto reported "no action was taken."
The Santee City Council recessed at 7:49 p.m. and convened in closed session at 7:52 p.m. for two items: (13) anticipated litigation under Government Code section 54956.9(d)(2) with "significant exposure to litigation: Twelve potential cases related to the retail cannabis business selection process," and (14) a consultation regarding a threat to public services or facilities under Gov. Code §54957(a). Council reconvened in open session at 9:14 p.m., and Mayor John W. Minto reported for Items 13 and 14 that "no action was taken."
The minutes record the subjects of the closed session but do not describe any settlement, direction, or reportable action. Any substantive legal developments would be documented in future public filings or meeting minutes if required by law.
