The meeting will begin at 9 a.m. Tuesday, Oct. 12, in the board chambers at the Lake County Courthouse, 255 N. Forbes St. TV8 will broadcast the meeting live.
At 9:45 a.m., the Department of Water Resources will take to the board an update on the work of a recently appointed steering committee to explore algae and weed abatement options.
The board will discuss possibilities for controlling weeds and algae, and also look at potential short- and long-term funding options for those efforts.
In a nontimed item, the board – sitting as the Lake County Redevelopment Agency – will consider approving a proposed resolution that would waive the formal bidding process for roofing repairs on the Lucerne Hotel, which the county purchased last month, as Lake County News has reported.
As part of accepting the resolution, supervisors would have to find that an emergency exists and immediate repairs are needed on the building. They would then award a bid and delegate redevelopment agency Executive Director Kelly Cox to administer a contract to start the repairs.
Cox told the board last month that about $367,000 in immediate repairs were needed on the building, including replacing part of its roof.
The Public Services Department will take to the board discussion and consideration of a proposed 10-year license agreement – for an annual fee of $27,600 plus a built-in inflation factor – between the county of Lake and T-Mobile West Corp. for space on the courthouse roof for the placement of cellular antennas.
The board also will hold a closed session to discuss existing litigation, Robey v. Scott, et al. and Mishewal Wappo Tribe of Alexander Valley v. Salazar, and conduct performance evaluations for Cox, Mental Health Director Kristy Kelly and Child Support Services Director Gail Woodworth.
The board also will hold a workshop beginning at 2 p.m. Friday, Oct. 15, in the board chambers to receive an update on Upstate California Connect, the five-county regional project to bring high-speed broadband to rural California areas through public/private partnerships.
