LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Focused on bringing residents the resources they need to recover from the Valley fire, the Lake County Valley Fire Recovery Task Force will begin holding public meetings on Tuesdays.

The group will meet at 6 p.m. at the Twin Pine Casino Event Center, at 22223 Highway 29 in Middletown.

The Lake County Valley Fire Recovery Task Force is a partnership of local, state, federal and tribal representatives.

These agencies are working together to provide comprehensive services to aid in the recovery of Valley fire survivors and Lake County residents.

The group was convened at the end of September immediately following the deactivation of the Lake County Emergency Operation Center.

Carol Huchingson, Lake County Director of Social Services, is leading the task force.

Huchingson looks forward to the meetings. “This is an opportunity for Lake County residents to hear firsthand about the progress being made in the Valley fire recovery,” she said. “It will also provide an opportunity for fire survivors to ask questions and provide input towards the recovery process.”

Huchingson encourages the public to attend.

The first Lake County Valley Fire Recovery Task Force meeting will take place at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 3.

Representatives from many agencies will report out to the public on fire recovery status.
