CLEARLAKE, Calif. – The Clear Lake Chamber of Commerce and the city of Clearlake will present the third annual “State of the City” presentation on Wednesday, Sept. 5.

The event will take place from 5 to 8 p.m. at the Clearlake Community Center, located at 3245 Bowers Ave.

“This is our third annual State of the City meeting. We have accomplished a lot and have a lot more in the planning stages and we want the community to know all that is happening,” said City Manager Greg Folsom, who helped introduce the concept when he joined the city.

Originally, the presentation had been scheduled for early August, but was postponed due to the Mendocino Complex, as Lake County News has reported.

The program will begin at 5 p.m. with an open house featuring the opportunity to interact with and ask questions to the Police Department, Code Enforcement, Public Works, Finance, Building Department, Administrative Services, Clear Lake Chamber of Commerce, PEG TV and more.

The formal presentation by the Clear Lake Chamber of Commerce and the City of Clearlake will begin at 6 p.m.

The Highlands Senior Service Center’s Chatterbox Catering will provide appetizers for the event.

“The Clear Lake Chamber of Commerce is excited to be working with the city of Clearlake to help inform the local business community about the positive changes being made,” said Chamber President Denise Loustalot.

The public is invited to attend and is encouraged to come early in order to have time to interact with the different departments to find out what programs are being offered and to get questions answered.
