The applicants had requested this action to be <br />processed under "regular" cancellation procedures as provided for <br />in the Government Code. Previously in 1983, a cancellation <br />request was before your Council under the "window" provisions, a <br />one-time procedure which allowed local jurisdictions to cancel <br />Williamson Act agreements pursuant to a relaxed set of findings. <br />Actions taken under this latter procedure have come under a legal <br />cloud as a result of a recent California Supreme Court decision. <br />The applicants wished to remove the cancellation action from any <br />legal uncertainty by filing the second request for cancellation. <br />Please refer to attached staff report dated October 7, 1986, for <br />additional information and discussion. <br />This application for cancellation is again before your Council at <br />the request of the applicants.
