Facing public backlash, board opts for shorter-term, streamlined increase over original five-year plan; school board set to form refinery ad hoc committee for tour of MRC
One thing that could help the finances of the MVSD is to build a lot of new housing inside the district boundaries and generate a lot of new revenue. I think the board made the right move. We can't let the system fall apart. Centra San is one of the biggest nitrogen polluters of the Bay & also is one of the very few sanitary districts that incinerates their solid waste (that can be good). If the regulatory agencies start cracking down, rates at Centra Sans will definitely increase.
Lots and lots of news, Craig, thank you! Central San’s rates are going up too according to the flyer I got yesterday. They are not as high as Mtn View’s though. That is ridiculous!
I agree with Yazmin’s “take a pause” about visiting MRC. To me, that would be a direct conflict of interest seeing how the refinery has lied to Martinez’s residents. PBF’s Q1 earnings were astronomical, so their excuse about how much it would cost them to revamp their equipment for wet scrubbers, is yet another fabrication. They stink. They are not a good neighbor but you and I already know that.
Thanks to Mssrs. Lochner and Lazzeretti for a very clear reporting of these 2 on-going and complex events. Bravo!
