Statement from Assemblywoman Lori D. Wilson on the Withdrawal of East Solano Plan’s Ballot Measure

For immediate release:

SUISUN CITY, CA – Today, Assemblywoman Lori D. Wilson of California's 11th Assembly District released the following statement on the withdrawal of East Solano Plan's ballot measure:

“I would like to commend East Solano Plan for pulling their measure from November’s ballot. From the beginning, I have approached their plan to build a new city in Solano with a healthy sense of skepticism. While the proposed development could offer our county many benefits, we must ensure that more work is done to protect current Solano County residents and our local assets. Water, land use, agriculture, the impact on Travis Air Force Base and the need for more transportation infrastructure are all issues that merit further discussion. The initiative being pulled is the best outcome for Solano County and now we can properly vet the full impact of the development without lingering ballot deadlines. I look forward to collaborating with all stakeholders to ensure a prosperous future for Solano County.”
