Council to Discuss Macpherson Suit in Closed Meeting

Trial date set for April 4.

Hermosa Beach’s ongoing legal battle with Macpherson Oil Co. will remain the center of discussion in a closed session City Council meeting Thursday at 6 p.m., according to the meeting agenda.

"The City Council finds, based on advice from legal counsel, that discussion in open session will prejudice the position of the City in the litigation," the agenda states.

The multimillion-dollar that Macpherson Oil brought against the city of Hermosa Beach was over an oil-drilling project.

A in the 13-year contract dispute between the city and oil company was reset last year for April 4.

Freedom is based on a sure identity, that I know who I am, but more importantly WHOSE I am. WhenRead More the LORD sent Moses to deliver His people, that was the beginning of their liberty. They were a particular people to the LORD, whose name is better understand as "He who was, is, and always will be." Not a god made of stone or wood, but the One who made, makes, and evermore makes and gives to us: the LORD took Israel by the hand and led them from bondage to slavery. Not who you are, but whose you are, makes all the difference between bondage and liberty: "For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father." (Romans 8: 15) Have you been adopted yet? "
