Wildomar resident Steve Beutz on Wednesday May, 26, 2010 received a favorable
decision on his appeal regarding parks assessments. His suit contended that the
County decision to assess fees on property owners to fund then shuttered parks
in Wildomar was unconstitutional. He lost that suit, but appealed the decision.
He has now won on appeal.
What does this mean for Wildomar's parks? Can the cash strapped, fledgling
City of Wildomar find the funds necessary to keep them open, or will the
parks yet again be closed to public use?
Beutz ran a failed attempt at election to the inaugural city council in 2008.
He campaigned against Wildomar incorporation.
Beutz and associate Gerard Ste. Marie have filed multiple lawsuits regarding
issues relating to Wildomar.
