City Council
The county wants the city to join a letter asking Sacramento to support 20 more years of Diablo Canyon operations, fix the unitary tax that cost the school district millions, and conserve plant lands. Council wouldn't back the 20-year extension without more study but will draft its own letter on taxes and conservation.
