Caldwell moves toward eminent domain action against Pioneer Irrigation
2008 lawsuit filed against the city, Pioneer Irrigation claims Caldwell illegally uses Pioneer’s storm water drains for city residential areas, a use the lawsuit argues will eventually cause flooding or public health problems or both. The city argues the storm water discharges are allowed by long-standing state law. Trial is set for June.
