Sen. Dodd Comments on California Forever Initiative

Wednesday, January 17, 2024

SACRAMENTO – Sen. Bill Dodd, D-Napa, issued the following statement today regarding the announcement from developers of the proposed California Forever community in Solano County that they would soon begin collecting signatures for a ballot initiative to get their project built:

 “They’ve certainly put plenty of money and time into their proposal but there are still huge, unresolved issues like traffic, and I’m not sold,” Sen. Dodd said. “If the measure qualifies, Solano County voters will get to weigh in on whether they think it’s a good idea. I hope decisions are based on facts, not slogans, misdirection and massive campaign spending. We shouldn’t gloss over very important public policy considerations that will have generational impacts.”
