The Central Contra Costa Sanitary District's Board of Directors moved briskly through a consent calendar, executive raises and two feel-good staff presentations at its Sept. 3 meeting — but the brief closed-session disclosure carried the heaviest regulatory weight: a settlement with the Bay Area Air Quality Management District over violations at the district's sewage sludge incinerators. The board also heard how its once-a-decade community celebration pulled in 1,500 visitors and nearly 315,000 social media views.
