Sacramento (For The Time-Being)

Sacramento, California

For Long Beach-based OPC, I work on behalf of clients to negotiate and finalize real estate rights desired by OPC clients, including licenses, leases, fee-title acquisitions/exchanges and similar transactions. Recent assignments include negotiation of multiple agreements allowing Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD) to install electric vehicle charging stations in private retail centers. Another assignment involved managing SMUD's participation in an exchange of land holdings exceeding 300 acres for more than 400 acres of U.S. Forest Service land in El Dorado County, California. This latter effort ended in March 2016 when SMUD chose to terminate planning for the major power generation project that precipitated the need for the land exchange.
