How to resolve AdBlock issue? The board will meet beginning at 9 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 18, in the board chambers on the first floor of the Lake County Courthouse, 255 N. Forbes St., Lakeport.
The meeting can be watched live on Channel 8 and online at https://countyoflake.legistar.com/Calendar.aspx . Accompanying board documents, the agenda and archived board meeting videos also are available at that link.
In an untimed item, the board will discuss a proposal from Board Chair Jim Steele regarding the consolidation of the auditor-controller and treasurer-tax collector’s offices.
Noting that the Boards of Supervisors of several counties currently are allowed under California Government Code to consolidate their auditor-controller and treasurer-tax collector’s offices, Steele’s written report to the board explains that he wants to discuss with the board the possibility of requesting state legislators take the necessary steps to add Lake County to the group of counties having the option for consolidating those financial offices.
At 10 a.m., the board will discuss a request from Lake Transit Authority regarding an update on the location plan study for a proposed new Lake Transit Hub on county-owned property in Clearlake.
In other business, in items timed for 9:10 a.m. to 9:14 a.m., the board will consider continuing proclamations of local emergency due to the Mendocino Complex Pawnee, Sulphur and Clayton fires, and the atmospheric river storm.
