Gold Line Wins Court Cases Brought by Monrovia Landowner

The Metero Gold Line won a court ruling in a case brought against the line by a Monrovia property owner who doesn't want to sell his land for a rail maintenance yard.
 
According to the Gold Line press release, "the ruling released today denies the petitioner’s request that the court invalidate the Construction Authority’s certification of a Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR) for the project."
 
Also, the news release says that, "To date, the petitioner has initiated six lawsuits against the Construction Authority and City of Monrovia in an attempt to stop the eminent domain process for his property. The lawsuits have ranged from alleging a secret conspiracy, to challenging the ability of board members to sit on the Construction Authority board, to claiming the Construction Authority is not legally permitted to conduct design-build procurements."
