California Forever is pulling back on its ballot measure that would have put the plan for a new city up for a vote in Solano County, the group and county announced Monday.
FAIRFIELD – In a joint statement, CEO Jan Sramek and Supervisor Mitch Mashburn noted that the East Solano Plan would instead be taking the normal route of going through an Environmental Impact Report and then seeking approval. 'Delaying the vote gives everyone a chance to pause and work together, which is what is needed – not a fight between friends throughout the County on both sides of the issue,' Mashburn stated.
The measure was set to go before the Solano County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday, where it could have been decided to be placed on the November 2024 General Election ballot.Sramek still struck a determined tone in Monday's statement, however. 'We believe that with this process, we can build a shared vision that passes with a decisive majority and creates broad consensus for the future,' Sramek stated.
