The Loleta Community Services District Board of Directors on Sept. 12, 2026 approved Resolution No. 2026-05 authorizing execution of an option to purchase property with R4 Ranches for the district's wastewater treatment facility (WWTF) project. The board recorded the motion as passed "AYES: All."
Board member David Struve moved the approval and John Sarico seconded the motion; all four members listed on the roll call were present and voted in favor (Seth Marks, David Struve, John Sarico, Joel Geck-Moeller). The resolution was approved "as amended," following discussion and recommended language changes to address contract inconsistencies raised during public comment.
During the agenda discussion, public commenters asked for clarification of language in the Option to Purchase Real Property (noting a needed clarification on page 8 of item 2a) and flagged a conflict of clauses on page 10 of item 4c; the board discussed those points and recommended solutions before voting to approve the resolution as amended.
The action clears the board to proceed with the option to purchase steps described in the resolution. The agenda listed no effective date for the option or a funding breakdown in the published text; those implementation details were not specified in the meeting record. The board listed a follow-up meeting date of Sept. 18, 2026 for continued business and administrative matters.
