After repeatedly failing to vote yes or no on a requested hardship exemption, or agree to provide water, San Simeon Community Services District Board members have been named in a proposed lawsuit over an alleged taking.
In what has become a standard practice after receiving a legal threat, district legal Council Jeff Minnery responded to a written intent to file a lawsuit by asking for more time. In this case, the property owner gave Minnery the three weeks he asked for, but if the district fails to act, Robert Hather plans to file suit in federal court.
