    The Quincy Community Service District board of directors agreed at its April meeting that General Manager Larry Sullivan should continue working with Public Works Director Bob Perreault on the possibility of transfer of the district’s solid waste powers to the county. 

   Sullivan told directors he asked Perreault what he thought about the idea after a previous meeting where the board discussed whether dropping those powers would simplify a consolidation with East Quincy Service District.

A judge ruled this afternoon in favor of tax limitation petitioners, granting their request for an injunction to keep Plumas District Hospital from selling more bonds, moving the tax limitation initiative election up from November to August, and disallowing PDH's ballot label language.
