LAKEPORT, Calif. – This week the Board of Supervisors will consider ways to keep the ground stable during the winter at a north Lakeport subdivision which suffered damage earlier this year from a landslide.
The meeting will begin at 9 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 17, in the board chambers on the first floor of the Lake County Courthouse, 255 N. Forbes St., Lakeport. It will be broadcast live on TV8.
At 9:30 a.m., the board will get an update from county staff on the Lakeside Heights subdivision in north Lakeport, where – beginning in March – a landslide destroyed several homes and damaged still others.
In April, the board declared a local state of emergency, and on Tuesday they will consider keeping that emergency in effect, and discuss other actions relating to the public water and sewer systems.
Public Works Director Scott De Leon and his staff also are scheduled to present to the board options for winterizing the subdivision's slide area, where ground movement has mostly stopped. However, with the coming winter season, officials are concerned that if the ground once again becomes saturated the landslide could move once again.
Also on Tuesday, at 9:15 a.m. the board will present the Employee Service Awards.
The full agenda follows.
