As part of its Strategy to Optimize Resources Management of Storm Water (STORM) series, the State Water Resources Control Board will host a free seminar in April to explore legal cases and ongoing efforts to address the municipal finance of stormwater projects. Michael G. Colantuono, special counsel to counties, cities and special districts around California, is slated to speak at the event.
Colantuono, a leading expert on Proposition 218, assisted the Legislative Analyst’s Office in the impartial analysis of the measure and co-chaired the committee which drafted what became the Prop. 218 Omnibus Implementation Act of 1997. He also chaired the committee that drafted the League of California Cities’ Prop. 218 Implementation Guide and chaired the League committee that drafted the Proposition 26 Implementation Guide. He is also a shareholder at Colantuono, Highsmith & Whatley, a municipal law firm with offices in Los Angeles and Grass Valley.
The seminar will be held on Thursday, April 20 from 10 – 11:30 a.m. in the Byron Sher Auditorium at the California Environmental Protection Agency (CalEPA) building at 1001 I Street in Sacramento. This event also will be available via webcast on CalEPA’s website.
