LAKEPORT, Calif. – After it voted last month not to require a Bay Area man to conduct an environmental impact report before building a home and cabin on Rattlesnake Island, the Board of Supervisors voted on Tuesday to accept findings of fact in the case, but not before the supervisors heard more pleas not to move forward.


At its Sept. 6 meeting the board upheld John Nady's appeal of a May 2010 Lake County Planning Commission vote requiring him to complete a focused environmental impact report before building a residence, caretaker's cabin, standalone bathroom and other trenching on the 57-acre island, located offshore from Clearlake Oaks.


On Tuesday the board had before it the final step in Nady's appeal process, approval of the 12-page findings of fact.


The document received a 3-2 vote, with Supervisor Denise Rushing and Supervisor Anthony Farrington once again voting against.


Nady – who has owned the island since 2003 – has been at the center of controversy due to his building plans on the ground that the Elem Pomo say is both sacred and central to their culture.


Since the board's September vote to overturn the planning commission's decision, the controversy has only continued. On Oct. 10, several dozen protesters traveled to Nady Systems in Emeryville to protest his plans, and the board also heard more outcry at this week's meeting.


On Tuesday, as the board considered the findings, Rushing said that in order for the board to grant the appeal it had to say the document's findings were accurate.


“I'm trying to capture what the board said but, with all due respect, I don't think the facts are accurate,” she said. “I don't think we can say that experts did not disagree.”


Rushing was referring to the disagreements between archaeologists – those surveyed the island and others who reviewed the studies – that there were not significant archaeological findings in the building area.


She said the document also would have to find the project would not have a significant impact on the environment, which she also disputed.


The California Environmental Quality Act – CEQA – says that when experts disagree on such findings, a governing body must find in favor of completing an environmental impact report, she said. “That's the basis of my vote and that's where I think we're at.”


Clearlake Oaks resident Herb Gura urged the board to order an EIR, which he said was the most prudent thing to do. “You don't know what you might find.”


Jim Brown of the Elem Nation told the board, “My tribe now has to go in another direction.”


He said his tribe thought they would get justice from the board, but now they have people getting them attorneys. Brown accused the board of being complicit with Nady in not following the law to protect cultural sites.


A statement at the earlier hearings that the tribe did not want artifacts removed from the island for study was a lie, said Brown, adding that they only wanted burial items left.


“You guys of course believed it because a rich white man is telling you this,” he said.


Brown said the tribe's only solution was to go to court to stop the project.


Responding to some of Brown's comments, Community Development Director Rick Coel told the board that there has been a lot of misinformation about what has, and what hasn't, taken place on the island over the last several years.


He said his department has received numerous complaints about activities on the island. “We consistently send staff out to look at that.”


Coel said he's also visited the island and toured it. “I saw every corner of that island.”


He said he didn't allow Nady to rewrite or edit the draft report on the project to the board, as has previously been alleged. “Again, I don't know where this information is coming from. We have a process to follow.”


Middletown resident Lisa Kaplan asked how to determine what was “significant” in the archaeological findings. “We can't say it's not significant because it's not significant to us.”


Upper Lake resident Haji Warf said the island was a political and religious center for the southeastern Pomo. “You're messing with a national treasure as far as I'm concerned.”


Warf said she was very disappointed in the direction the board's decision was going, accusing the supervisors of doing what was politically expedient.


“In the end this is going to tear our community apart, and I urge you to reconsider doing that. It's already tearing a lot of peoples' hearts out,” Warf said, asking the supervisors to think about the national significance of what they were doing.


Batsulwin Brown, Elem's vice chair, told the board, “You need to consider what has been done to our own tribe.”


He said there were agencies that were supposed to protect the tribe's rights but didn't. “This issue doesn't stop here.”


He added, “You're impacting future generations of Lake County people.”


He said it was hard for him to continue to go before the board and feel like his tribe was getting equal justice.


If the board could allow a site with so much significance to be destroyed, Batsulwin Brown asked what message that sends to the county's tribal communities. “When we come forward, this is the response we get.”


He said the findings were one-sided and dismissed important archaeological testimony.


“All of this land was promised to us through treaty,” he said. “All of these lands were illegally taken.”


Brown also told them, “You're removing our signature from the land.”


Rushing told fellow supervisors, “This is a huge decision on the part of this board.”


Supervisor Rob Brown said he didn't disagree. He said there was a good chance the issue was going to go to court. “I don't think that's a bad thing,” he said, adding that going to court would eliminate the emotions and the politics.


Brown said he understood the emotion connected to the island, and had spoken to tribal members about the matter.


He said it was not up to the board to determine if the land had been taken lawfully, as tribal members and their supporters have asked the board to do. He said the board's consideration was limited to a land use decision.


Referring to comments that the island would be “destroyed” by Nady's plans to build a home, Brown said when he thought about destruction he thought about bigger projects, like shopping centers, airports and casinos. Nady should have a right to build his home, Brown added.


Brown said he felt the proposed mitigation and monitoring plan will help determine if, as the project moves forward, there are assets that need to be saved.

101811 Board of Supervisors - Rattlesnake Island Findings of Fact

LAKEPORT, Calif. – In response to a referendum effort, the Board of Supervisors voted unanimously on Tuesday to rescind a medical marijuana dispensaries ordinance passed in August and directed county staff to enforce the county's zoning ordinance, which county officials said doesn't allow dispensaries.

The new ordinance cut the number of dispensaries countywide roughly in half, limiting them to five, and was met with opposition in the form of a referendum effort that county Registrar of Voters Diane Fridley told the board Tuesday had enough signatures to go on the ballot.

However, that referendum appeared to result in unexpected consequences for local dispensaries as a result of the board's Tuesday action.

As part of the vote, the board directed the Community Development Department to take necessary and consistent enforcement action against existing dispensaries – which are not specifically allowed under the county's zoning ordinance – based on complaints.

Since the dispensaries ordinance was passed and the referendum effort started, there have been federal appellate court decisions and federal enforcement actions clouding the matter of state versus federal law over medical marijuana. That raised concerns for board members.

While county staff said the zoning ordinance doesn't allow for dispensaries, that wasn't the view of some community members, including Phil Murphy of Finley, who said there was a good chance the county could get sued over its zoning.

He urged the board to go back to the drawing board and come up with another ordinance. “The more you limit access the more you enable the criminal element to gain the upper hand here. That's just the reality of it.”

Supervisor Denise Rushing – who did not vote to pass the ordinance in August – asked Murphy about what form a new ordinance should take. Murphy replied that it had to reflect reality and be workable.

“Work for the interests of this community first,” said Murphy, adding the board didn't work for Washington, DC.

Supervisor Rob Brown, concerned about what actions the board could take in light of the federal crackdown, said, “In a situation like this, you make the best decision that you can.”

He said most of the people he's been in contact with were grateful for the ordinance the board passed. He also felt that getting sued for not having enough dispensaries was a “shallow threat,” pointing to the city of Lakeport, which doesn't allow dispensaries and has not been sued.

“We will, however, see challenges from the federal government that we cannot afford,” Brown said.

Brown also raised issues with signature gatherers for the referendum. He said he spoke with three of them, who he said were giving false information to people.

Community Development Director Rick Coel said for the last few years he and other county officials, as well as the board, have tried to resolve a “very complex” issue.

Coel said they had reached a compromise. “We're back to square one. The zoning ordinance clearly does not allow dispensaries.”

He said it's still not clear which of the county's dispensaries actually meet state requirements for being organized as nonprofits. Some of the dispensaries applying to the county to operate under the dispensaries ordinance didn't have that nonprofit paperwork in order.

Numerous jurisdictions have banned dispensaries outright. “There's a lot of reasons why they've done that,” said Coel, who also asked the board for direction on what his department should do next.

Lake County Chamber of Commerce Chief Executive Officer Melissa Fulton said California is in a quandary due to the conflict between state and federal law.

She said the ordinance would have served a majority of residents. “The chamber spoke on behalf of many, many people in this county who do fear retribution if they speak in public as being against dispensaries.”

Fulton asked how many more hundreds of hours were going to be spent on the issue. “It's a mess. It's an absolute mess.”

Businessman Gary Olson said the federal government has “had 15 years to bring the hammer down” on California for its marijuana laws.

“I think you ought to let this thing go. Let it go to the referendum,” he said.

During the meeting Brown said he knew that many people who backed the referendum were drug dealers trying to hide behind the skirts of legitimate patients. “They've asked for it,” he said. “It wasn't enough, they want more. This is what they've caused … You have them to thank for this.”

Murphy said there was an effort to get the county to acknowledge the fact that the status quo with dispensaries was not creating significant problems and that if a dispensary was in compliance, its efforts would be respected and protected.

“That's what the original ordinance was allowing for,” replied Brown.

Murphy suggested that if they wanted to make the criminals happy, then the county should close all the dispensaries. “That's the best possible outcome for them. And it's the worst possible outcome for everyone else.”

Supervisor Anthony Farrington called it a hard issue, explaining that legalization needed to happen at the federal level. “It's something much larger than us as a local body.”

Farrington acknowledged the thousands of postcards the board had received from county residents in support of banning dispensaries entirely. However, he said the board had still wanted to find a compromise.

He said the uprising against the referendum did not involve consumers and patient advocates but had instead been carried out by profiteers. Farrington said the bomb threats and legal threats, and the hiring of a political operative out of Chico – who personally called him to threaten recall – came out of those interests, and didn't represent the community.

“Integrity in the process is important,” he said. Like Brown, he faulted the signature gathering process, explaining how a signature gatherer told him the Board of Supervisors had taken money in exchange for passing the ordinance.

Farrington said they needed a clean slate, and he supported rescinding the ordinance, forcing all dispensaries to shut down and beginning the negotiations process from there.

Supervisor Jeff Smith, who like Rushing had voted against the ordinance, wanted the board to rescind the document, make modifications and bring it back. He said he felt they were very close with some changes, but added he was hesitant because of his concerns about federal law.

“Every time we turn around we're getting slapped down one way or the other,” he said.

Farrington said they could rescind it and direct code enforcement to act on those dispensaries operating illegally.

Brown questioned why they would want to bring another ordinance back in light of federal action. “Staff already has enough to do without creating ordinances that are in conflict with federal law.”

Brown moved to rescind the ordinance and direct staff to take action consistent with other code enforcement actions. Farrington seconded, and before the vote was taken Smith asked if the action was clear to Coel.

Coel, noting they're not entirely complaint driven, said his department has to be consistent in its approach.

The board voted unanimously to rescind the document.

Farrington indicated he wanted a separate discussion brought back to the board in the near future to consider how code enforcement should move forward.

LAKEPORT, Calif. – As colleagues, friends and the man they helped save looked on, three Lake County Sheriff's deputies were honored last Tuesday for their bravery and quick actions at the scene of a Sept. 10 shooting.


The Board of Supervisors presented proclamations to Deputy Gary Frace, Sgt. Andy Davidson and Det. Mike Curran on Oct. 11, honoring them for the actions they took to save the lives of Willy Turner and Lesa Serrano after a violent confrontation with Serrano's estranged husband, Andrew.


Supervisor Rob Brown read the commendations as Frace and Curran looked on. Davidson was not present, but Sheriff Frank Rivero showed up to accept his commendation for him.


The men received a standing ovation from the gallery.


Initially, Brown said he had planned to present a commendation just to Frace, but he said Frace said that Curran and Davidson were just as involved as he was.'


“That's the kind of guy Gary is,” said Brown.


Additionally, District Attorney Don Anderson shared with Brown the facts surrounding the investigation, which make clear that all three were crucial to bringing the near-deadly confrontation to an end.


The three men were on duty shortly after noon on Saturday, Sept. 10, when they were dispatched to the Big Valley Road home of Andrew Serrano on the report of a shooting, as Lake County News has reported.


“Something like that does not happen every day in Lake County, much less Kelseyville,” said Brown, adding that the incident rocked the community.


“It's deputies like these that make me proud to me part of this community and have them as friends,” he said.


Board Chair Jim Comstock added, “We can't thank our law enforcement officers enough for what they do.”


Anderson also presented them letters of commendation from his office.


A former sheriff's deputy himself, Anderson said he and his staff were very impressed with the mens' performance, and commended their bravery and professionalism in engaging and disarming Andrew Serrano.


He said their actions most assuredly saved the lives of Turner and Lesa Serrano.


Anderson offered the commendations on behalf of himself, Chief Deputy District Attorney Richard Hinchcliff – who was looking on from the gallery – and District Attorney Chief Investigator Craig Woodworth.


He shook both Curran's and Frace's hands, and followed up by giving each of the men a big hug.


According to the investigative report, Frace arrived just ahead of Curran, pulling out his own set of personal bolt cutters that he carried in his patrol vehicle to cut the lock off the driveway gate.


Together they went down the driveway, where their reports said they found Andrew Serrano outside of the home, holding his estranged wife, Lesa, by the arm and with a handgun in his other hand, dragging her toward his pickup. Frace's report said Lesa Serrano's face was bleeding heavily and that she had blood down her shirt.


Frace pulled up, got out of his patrol car and after drawing his own weapon ordered Andrew Serrano to put down his handgun and get down on the ground.


Davidson, the third deputy on scene, arrived as Curran was handcuffing Serrano. He went into the garage to find Turner lying on his back just inside the door, with Lesa Serrano standing nearby.


Turner was holding a rag to his chest, over the wound. Frace arrived and stayed with Turner as Davidson went outside to contact Central Dispatch and request a REACH helicopter to transport Turner to the hospital.


In an Oct. 12 interview, Turner – who had been present for the proclamation presentation the day before – told Lake County News that he was extremely grateful to Curran, Davidson and Frace for what they did to save his life and that of Lesa Serrano.


Of Davidson in particular, Turner said, “His immediate care and his ability to make things happen was instrumental in saving my life, for sure.”


He said he's very proud of the expertise and quality of local law enforcement and fire personnel. “Thanks to the people who put their lives on the line every day for our safety and health.”


Turner said Lesa Serrano also fought her soon-to-be-ex-husband who, as he was holding onto her, said he planned to go and kill Turner.


He also thanked Brown for his help caring for Turner's family in the wake of the incident, which left Turner hospitalized in Santa Rosa for several days.


Turner says he's healing well and looking forward to getting on the mat at the newly dedicated Kelseyville High School wrestling facility, named for his father, where he coaches wrestling.
