After the massive housing tract proposed by Richland Planned Communities collapsed during the economic downturn, a handful of infrastructure projects needed to sustain growth were abandoned.And that led to headaches for both the City of Lathrop and the Manteca Unified School District. But the company that has emerged to acquire the majority of the property – Saybrook CLSP LLC – and the rights to develop it has taken major steps to show its willingness to be a community partner by finishing some of the projects left behind, and will continue to do so. On Monday, the Lathrop City Council gave its blessing to the company to complete construction of the storm water detention pond West of Lathrop High School and install low-flow storm water pumps – granting access to city-owned property under the agreement that they would acquire the same legal access from Manteca Unified School District.
