Judge takes another week in MROSD petition case


By on Sat, August 21, 2004

Judge Carl Holm has delayed the decision on those dilatory MROSD petitions for yet another week, says the San Mateo Times. Two weeks ago, the judge ordered the county to organize the insufficient petitions. Those were delivered yestered and he’s now reviewing them. He has asked the plaintiffs for an analysis of the process, and the MROSD and LAFCO for a response to that analysis. He’s expected to deliver a decision at the end of next week.  It’s getting late. I reported two weeks ago: 

Although today was the formal deadline for adding measures to the November ballot, Chief Elections Officer Warren Slocum said his office could still add the MROSD annexation to the ballot if the judge orders it. But it’s getting really late. The county must print and mail sample ballots next month.
