City, Palomar College sign settlement over RB campus BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK The city and Palomar College have signed off on a settlement agreement over the college’s future Rancho Bernardo campus. “Obviously it’s not perfect, but under state law we could not get everything we wanted,” said City Councilman Mark Kersey when speaking to Rancho Bernardans on Oct. 27 prior to the Rancho Bernardo Community Council’s meeting and the congressional debate it sponsored.

Among the reliefs it sought was a court order setting aside the project approval and EIR certification under the California Environmental SEE CAMPUS, A11
