Covert Operations in High Gear

Michael Covert, the CEO of the Palomar Pomerado Health (PPH) district has had a very busy week.

By Friday, June 24, news was leaked that PPH is considering a location in San Marcos by Cal State San Marcos.

On Friday, June 24, a special meeting of the Board of Directors was called for June 28 to consider 6.6 acres known as proposed parcels 27-29 and 30-36 in the ERTC. (Actually, this is noticed incorrectly. Only parcels 30-32 are 6.6 acres. Parcels 27-36 are 56 acres with 36 acres of pad area. See Blog entry for June 02 "ERTC Subdivision Map - Hospital Lots" below). The agenda indicated "Possible Action." See agenda item below:

On Tuesday, June 28, he attended the special meeting of the Board of Directors. Apparently, no "reportable" action was taken regarding the ERTC parcels. After the closed meeting, the Board approves the FY2006 Capital and Operating Budgets amounting to $369 million. See report in the North County Times:
