The California Supreme Court is set to issue a ruling Thursday that could add millions of dollars to the governor's $15.7billion plan to build two giant water tunnels in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. removaloftheplannedde- velopment to allow staff and commissioners to take a closer look was 4-0 with Commissioner Lynn De- Freece absent. While DeFreece was not present, he was rep- resented in a letter sub- mitted to interim Tehama County Planning Director Jim Wildauer. In the letter, DeFreece said he felt this is- sue was one of the most im- portant to come to the com- mission and it was time to put it to rest as the con- stituents of the county had been held long enough. Moule also read a letter into record, one he had pre- viously written and given to staff, but wanted to en- sure it was part of the re- cord. Moule gave history of the rezone during which he said he questioned the scor- ing process done to deter- mine how properties were placed into which phase and asked that the entire original phase II be sent back to the supervisors as is. He also asked that the public hearing continue, but no vote be made until all five commissioners were present. Commissioner Delbert David said his biggest problem in the entire re- zone process was a lack of communication with the commissioners. George Robson, a re- tired Tehama County Plan- ning Director who has been doing private con- sulting since 2010, spoke on behalf of his clients who have property south of Jellys Ferry in the Bend area that will be a part of Phase 2.5. He felt the prop- erty should be included in Phase II, Robson said. They also objected to the change in zoning, which he called a reclassification of the classification, from a 10 acre minimum to a two acre minimum. Several owners including a Los Molinos woman who has 4.2 acres in the area of Sherwood Boulevard and 99E, questioned whether the zoning changes such as hers being changed to commercial would af- fect her living in her resi- dence. Commissioner Gary Durden said it would not change the use for anyone currently living on one of the re-zoned properties, but it could affect any further development or when the property is sold. Linda Walker has prop- erty on Reeds Creek Road in the Red Bluff area that is agricultural land through the Williamson Act that has been in her family for years. Originally, when the Tehama County General Plan, which governs zon- ing in the county, was ap- proved in 2009 it was set to be a five-acre minimum for development, but now it shows it has gone back to 20 acre minimum while another neighbors was at five and is now at 2.5 acres. They also have a neighbor- ing property that has been developed with five-acre minimum lots. One of her main concerns was that the Agriculture Preserve in the zoning remain in- tact, she said. Walker, who worked on the General Plan approved in 2009, said she felt the zoning should follow the recommendation of the general plan which had many hours of labor in- volved in its development. Grace Alice Jackson has a property on Walnut Street surrounded by a mix of uses that she is having to sell due to losing her husband and health issue, she said. She asked that her property remain an M1 and M2 zone combo in- stead of changing to either commercial or residential to help keep the property value higher. Marlene and Bill Elliott have property near the area of South and Toomes ave- nues in Corning and while the zoning changes for the property make sense for the future, they were con- cerned about being able to continue to use it as a res- idence. Moule said the re- zone changes nothing but the color on the map until the property is developed or sold. Tehama County Deputy County Counsel Brian Briggs further clari- fied the matter by remind- ing people that nothing changed until both the Planning Commission and Supervisors had passed an ordinance, he said. Bart Fleharty, an at- torney representing a cli- ent with property on Cop- per Ranch Drive near the Bend area said he had questions regarding the zoning changes that of the 26 acres his client had made two different acre- age minimums for lot di- vision. While property on the north side of the road had a 10-acre minimum, that on the south side had a two-acre minimum. The summary ordinance preparation is the next step for phase II and the plan- ning department hopes to have it before the super- visors for adoption some- time in mid-August, said Tehama County Planner Scot Timboe.

Rezone FROM PAGE 1 State officials insisted the tests would not sig- nificantly interfere with or damage the land, and that the state should only be required to compensate landowners for any actual damage or interference. Property owners said the tests the state plans to conduct on their land will be lengthy and inva- sive and constitute an oc- cupation of their property. The ruling continues to allow landowners to seek compensation for damage caused by the testing, and adds a provision that al- lows them to have a jury determine the value. "The court said you get damages, forget about oc- cupancy," said Norman Matteoni, an attorney for one of the landowners. Matteoni said the land- owners will consider whether to appeal the case to the U.S. Supreme Court. Tom Keeling, another attorney for landowners, predicted the ruling would make landowners "more vulnerable to aggressive tactics" by the state. The project would run four-story high twin pipes underground for 35 miles and eventually pull thou- sands of gallons of water a second from a stretch of the Sacramento River to cities and farms to the south. Supporters say the proj- ect would ensure a more reliable water supply and protect fish species. Opponents contend it would jeopardize delta farming and destroy vital wildlife habitat. Officials promoting the tunnels will present plans to state water regulators in hearings starting Tuesday. The State Water Resources Control Board will decide whether tunnel backers have a right to take water from the river near Sacra- mento, a major hurdle for the project to move for- ward. The testing at issue in Thursday's ruling involves access to about 150 proper- ties covering tens of thou- sands of acres in San Joa- quin, Contra Costa, So- lano, Sacramento and Yolo counties, state officials said in court documents. The environmental testing includes trapping wild animals and taking soil samples. For geologi- cal testing, experts would bore holes up to 8 inches in diameter and 205 feet into the ground. The holes would be filled after the testing is completed. Attorneys for the Prop- erty Reserve, Inc. land- owner said in court doc- uments that the prelimi- nary project work would destroy crops and disrupt fertilizer and pesticide use. An appeals court in a 2-1 ruling two years ago sided with property owners, saying the test- ing constituted "taking" of private property. That court said that under Cali- fornia's state constitution, the property owners were entitled to a determina- tion of the market value of the property rights the state was acquiring for the project. Water FROM PAGE 1 The Associated Press LONG BEACH A mile of Southern California shore- line that was closed amid fears involving a sewage spill 20 miles away was re- opened Thursday after two consecutive bacteria tests came back clean. However, officials said a longer stretch of neigh- boring shoreline remained closed in Long Beach. Ocean water samples taken along Seal Beach on Tuesday and Wednesday showed no excessive levels of bacteria and the stretch was reopened. But in neighboring Long Beach, four miles of shore- line remained closed after a sample taken Wednes- day showed elevated bacte- ria levels, said Nelson Kerr of the city's health depart- ment. The first sample taken Tuesday, a day after the spill, showed no excessive levels of bacteria. Officials require two consecutive clean tests. A buried pipe near down- town Los Angeles collapsed Monday, causing a block- age and spill of 2.4 mil- lion gallons of raw sewage onto streets and into storm drains that feed into the river. Crews managed to con- tain, divert or vacuum at least 750,000 gallons and the rest reached the river that flows to the coast. The sewage leak was initially capped Monday night, but another rupture occurred during repairs. It was finally stopped Tues- day, said Adel Hagekhalil, assistant director of Los Angeles Sanitation. The 1929 concrete, tiled-lined pipe that broke was 18 feet underground, Hagekhalil said. The cause of the collapse wasn't clear.
