Konocti Harbor buyer bags meeting PDF Print E-mail
Written by John Lindblom

LAKEPORT — A Monday meeting to discuss the proposed sale of Konocti Harbor and Spa between Kenwood Investments, the buyer, and Lake County government officials was called off by Kenwood.

 

District 5 Supervisor Rob Brown said a message received at county offices from Kenwood on Friday said only, "'Due to unforeseen circumstances we will not be able to attend the meeting,'" said Brown.

 

Brown was to be joined by County Counsel Anita Grant, County Administrative Executive Kelly Cox and board chair Jeff Smith in representing the county. He said he had assumed that Darius Anderson, lobbyist and owner of Kenwood Investments, would be accompanied by executives Brad Welch and Joe Wallace.

 

Welch represented Kenwood a week earlier when the Lake County board voted 5-0 against Kenwood's establishing a gambling casino at Konocti Harbor upon purchasing the resort from UA Local Convalescent Fund; he left that meeting without comment.

 

Considering that circumstance, Brown was asked what he thought the abrupt cancellation of Monday's meeting indicated.

 

"They didn't show up. I don't know what it means," he said.

Kenwood Cancellation
written by Eveldad, February 15, 2007
It is my understanding that Kenwwod does not want Konocti unless a Casino is part of the deal. Perhaps the Supervisors 5-0 vote against the Casino sent a strong enough message for them to reconsider.
However, isn't it true that Kenwood can still go ahead with their plans for a Casino at Konocti if Washington and Sacramento approves, regardless if Lake County approves the plan or not?
