LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Lake County Association Realtors announced they will be holding an Open House Extravaganza on Sunday, July 21, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Nearly 60 homes will be available viewing throughout the county.
Purchasing a home is often one of the most important decisions in a person’s life and deciding on a particular house comes with many options.
Forty-five percent of recent buyers used open houses as a way to narrow down their choices and find their dream home.
“Realtors will open the doors to an assortment of homes in the local area that are taking part in this year’s Open House Extravaganza,” said Mary Benson, 2019 president of the Lake County Association of Realtors. “This event is a great way for buyers to get an idea of what they can afford and what kinds of homes are available in the local market. It’s also a chance for sellers to market their home and attract potential buyers.”
Realtors and affiliate members will be available at open houses to answer questions about the home buying process and local market conditions. Homes will be available in many of the county’s diversified neighborhoods.
The event is an excellent opportunity for both in-county residents and out-of-county buyers. In-county residents who are first time home buyers or looking to upsize or downsize their current residence will have the ability to view multiple homes at their leisure.
Out-of-county buyers will find Lake County home prices affordable and attractive be it as a second home or a new residence.
“Buyers need to have a clear idea of what features are important to them and know where they are willing to compromise;” said Benson. “That is where visiting open houses can be helpful. Also, working with a Realtor can be a real asset. Realtors visit hundreds of homes with buyers each year, and have a unique understanding of what buyers value in their local markets. Their expertise and knowledge can help you achieve the dream of homeownership.”

PORTLAND, Oregon – The Pacific Fishery Management Council is requesting public comment on structuring the West Coast Area 2A non-Indian directed commercial halibut fishery for the upcoming year.
The public is encouraged to comment at the September and November council meetings as management of this halibut fishery transitions from the International Pacific Halibut Commission, or IPHC, to the council.
In June, the council committed to working closely with the IPHC and stakeholders on the transition. The council will focus on a smooth transfer of management authority for the commercial directed fishery, and will rely on the IPHC to continue to issue licenses for this fishery in the near-term.
The council intends to maintain the current management structure, but may consider changes to vessel poundage limits and open periods.
At its September and November meetings, when the council typically considers changes to its halibut catch sharing plan, it will also make management recommendations for the 2020 directed commercial halibut fishery trip limits and fishing periods.
These meetings will provide an opportunity for public, agency and advisory body comment.
The Groundfish Advisory Subpanel meetings held in conjunction with the September and November council meetings will also provide an opportunity for public comment on this issue.
As always, public comment will be accepted through the council’s e-portal before the meetings.
The September meeting will be held Sept. 11 to 18 at the Riverside Hotel in Boise, Idaho. The November meeting will be held Nov. 13 to 20 at the Hilton Orange County/Costa Mesa in Costa Mesa, California.
The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife will hold public meetings Aug. 5 to 8 to discuss fishing periods and trip limits for the 2020 directed commercial halibut fishery.
Meeting dates and locations will be posted online; information is also available at 541-867-4741. Currently, the Departments of Fish and Wildlife for Washington and California do not have public meetings scheduled to discuss the non-Indian commercial directed halibut fishery season structure for 2020.
The Pacific Fishery Management Council is one of eight regional fishery management councils established by the Magnuson Fishery Conservation and Management Act of 1976 for the purpose of managing fisheries 3-200 miles offshore of the United States of America coastline.
The Pacific Council recommends management measures for fisheries off the coasts of California, Oregon and Washington.
All council meetings are open to the public.
