[1:09] Good morning

[1:15] everybody. Good

[1:17] morning

[1:39] everybody. Welcome to the meeting.

[1:41] A number of the six board of supervisors meeting,

[1:43] whom the county's board of supervisors,

[1:46] we could get a roll call, please.

[1:47] The supervisor angle, the center of the solar area,

[1:50] the center of the solar area, the center of the solar hall.

[1:52] Yes.

[1:52] The center of the solar hall.

[1:53] Got to make them happen, but you can leave us in the pledge.

[1:57] That's great.

[2:01] We were lucky.

[2:03] We're not just a state of sub-America,

[2:05] and the superiors of the litre.

[2:07] We're a nation of sands.

[2:09] What we're making for them.

[2:10] I'm here with all of them.

[2:11] And there is also a number of data addresses for our poll.

[2:20] Do you have any additions to your deletions from the agenda today?

[2:25] Anybody?

[2:26] All right.

[2:27] Now those public column opportunity matters under the jurisdiction of the board and not on the posted agenda may be addressed by the general public at the beginning of the regular agenda.

[2:36] And any off agenda matters before the board for consideration.

[2:40] However, California law prohibits the board from taking action on any matter which is not on the posted agenda unless it is determined

[2:47] to be an urgency item by the Board of Supervisors.

[2:50] Any member of the public wishing to address the Board during public comment period will be

[2:54] limited to a maximum of three minutes. So this is for anything that is not on the agenda today.

[3:00] Other items on the agenda will be taken up in that order so you may be able to give public

[3:05] comment during those items which is a B3 minutes. We have a new timer up here so you'll be able to

[3:11] track your time. So do we have any public comment for anything that is not on the agenda?

[3:15] Let's go ahead.

[3:17] Good morning, my fellow humans.

[3:19] I would just like to invite you to join me.

[3:24] The creator of all it is, whichever name we use.

[3:27] Thank you for this wonderful opportunity in life.

[3:30] Thank you for this opportunity to come together, participate in our local government.

[3:35] Thank you for the people that work tirelessly to provide us services and things that we rely on.

[3:41] May we have the courage to ask the tough questions.

[3:44] courage to give honest answers, may we find transparency, may we make decisions that are in

[3:52] alignment for the highest and greatest good of all of those who live here, including our brothers

[3:58] and sisters and nature. Amen. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Any other public comment here in the room?

[4:04] I don't know what you mean. I don't know what the Sun article that they came out about what's happening

[4:08] with the $7.8 million. That will be on the agenda today so we can discuss that during the

[4:14] that agenda item. You may comment then. But this is for things that are not on me agenda.

[4:20] So anything, not on me. That we're going. Sorry.

[4:35] I just wanted to bring to the public

[4:40] attention that the Board of Supervisors about to get in trouble again. A while back,

[4:49] they were sued by the State of California because they slowly and misappropriately distributed

[4:59] to the school district. As many of you know, I hope the school district is in B. Trouble.

[5:07] And again, the county hasn't distributed money properly. I'd like to see this county

[5:16] complete and provide a complete reconciliation of what happened to Measure B funds

[5:22] And they're messing with Prop 13 funds again.

[5:26] Well, last time it was a state issue.

[5:29] Congratulations. You escalated it to a federal issue.

[5:34] So many things that this county does are a mess.

[5:41] I guess you guys like being sued.

[5:44] You must have deep pockets somewhere.

[5:47] You escalate the most junior person to a higher position

[5:51] and violate the Brown Act and doing that. You also don't disclose that well, you're

[5:59] ice-free. You also don't disclose when there's connections with people. For example,

[6:07] the fact that she's been involved with John Kennedy, who's also someone who's done

[6:12] very questionable things with the district, and with the city portal. And I've been told

[6:19] that's not true. It is true. And I'll give you a copy of that through the state of California.

[6:26] And I'd like to make sure this ends up in the post meeting journals that shows a means

[6:31] of finding that too. There's whole thing with the green fell money and the fire victims

[6:37] money being distributed by an ad hoc committee that wasn't informed in front of the public.

[6:44] So that's pretty pathetic.

[6:47] So this county keeps doing things over and over again.

[6:52] Not for the benefit and the people, but for the benefit itself.

[6:57] I don't bring that up when we start talking about,

[7:04] sorry, you guys will have to share one.

[7:08] For the benefit, here, maybe you'll publish this forever.

[7:15] You can put it in the front of the sun correctly, it's also difficult.

[7:20] It's very pathetic that we can't get things done for the community, you know, it's

[7:25] done for being assessed to us in the corona, but I'll talk some more about it.

[7:30] That will get down to how this money is being distributed. Thank you.

[7:34] Any other public comment in the room? Any public comment on Zoom?

[7:40] No public comment on Zoom.

[7:43] Right. Move on to Department of Health and Response.

[7:46] Do we have any brief announcements and reports today?

[7:49] Department of Health.

[7:50] Sure.

[7:54] Sure, God Thunderbolt Ward, just a real quickly last week, was National Administrative Assistance

[8:01] Week.

[8:02] And I would just like to recognize the outstanding work being done by the Administrative Assistance

[8:07] at the Sheriff's Office on a running towering fiscal officer, Holly Taylor, who is the

[8:12] office manager at Mary Fraser and Bonnie Clark, who are doing two jobs basically at the

[8:24] who is a consistent fiscal officer, and I'm Cheyenne Bakker, who is the civil clerk who

[8:34] does outstanding work as well, and I just wanted to recognize them publicly for the fact

[8:39] that the stuff that they do at the sheriff's office, we would not be able to do without

[8:44] them, and they do outstanding work over that.

[8:47] So, thank you.

[8:48] Thank you.

[8:54] Go ahead.

[8:55] Okay.

[8:55] Two minutes, Tracy Ferguson, planning director, one item as a reminder to visit owners in Quincy,

[9:01] East Quincy, the public and county staff and others that are interested.

[9:06] Next Tuesday, the 13th from 46 p.m., there's going to be the RERC Community Collaborative

[9:12] Convenience.

[9:13] So this is recreation economy for rural communities.

[9:16] This is a grant that the county is a partner in looking at how we connect Main Street here

[9:22] you can see and you can see this is districts to the forests and our recreation economy.

[9:27] So we invite everyone to come along.

[9:29] There was an action plan that was published in the winter of 2022.

[9:34] There's an implementation on Bomi system.

[9:37] And this is a check-in on that implementation wanting to hear again from business owners about ideas for the districts here and

[9:45] residents as well. So learn more, see the progress, and get involved. I'll give these flyers here.

[9:51] Then you one would like again next Tuesday, May the 1346 PM at the Vets Hall here on Lawrence in

[9:58] Fancy. Okay, so by the everyone, there will be refreshments provided and then afterwards we invite

[10:03] everyone on the town and we're going to do kind of a little walking tour or visit some of the

[10:10] restaurants and businesses in downtown Michigan.

[10:14] And then secondly, as an update to the California recover grant program,

[10:19] this is what we used to call CDB, CDB, JDR, the disaster recovery money

[10:24] that the State Department of Housing and Community Development,

[10:27] HDD holds on behalf of the county and the DICC fire and back worth complex fire recovery.

[10:33] And so April 15th, the portal closed for the single-family reconstruction, that's the $500,000 to rebuild your home, and the wildfire affected areas, and the $75,000 under the single-family mitigation, that is home-harming and fence-able space, not only, well, but areas burdened, but for those structures that stood, so that was a county-wide.

[10:57] So total numbers out the door, acted now, applications,

[11:03] we have 11 in the single family reconstruction,

[11:06] moving forward, that accounts for eight landlords

[11:09] and three owners.

[11:11] So this program was not only available to those,

[11:14] that, you know, the home lived in their home

[11:16] as their primary residence,

[11:17] but those that also had a rental in the wildfire

[11:21] factory area, so landlords.

[11:23] So it's looking that the landlords here,

[11:25] eight landlords and three owner, primary owners, for the total 11, single,

[11:30] monthly reconstruction applications moving forward.

[11:33] So good news there and as well under the mitigation,

[11:37] we have 23 applications moving forward.

[11:41] 21 of those are landlords and two are owners.

[11:45] So again, the landlords come and out in the single family,

[11:48] mitigation to home furniture and provide

[11:51] dependable space. I will note that there is enough money under the single family

[11:56] mitigation for 17 of those 23. So that is an over-subscribed category and then of the 11.

[12:04] We had them for 30 to come in and we saw 11 applications there. So the county working with the state

[12:12] is looking to a re-appropriate within housing eligible activities under the Recovered Health

[12:20] Hornet Program. So, because we were under subscribed on the single family reconstruction,

[12:26] we want to keep that money still local here. And we're looking to other eligible activities under

[12:33] the residential, both a family,

[12:38] that was political and a category to

[12:41] amend the action plan up through

[12:43] state, state, and HUD.

[12:44] So more to come there.

[12:46] Thank you very much.

[12:48] Nick, go ahead.

[12:48] I just want to report on the

[12:50] surplus vehicle option.

[12:52] Thank you.

[12:53] It's been completed.

[12:54] We received the check.

[12:57] The fiscal officer facilities is

[12:59] reconciling all that.

[13:00] You'd be sending over to the auditor's office.

[13:02] And then the net to the county as of now was 160,000, four or six and 20 cents, and we still have about 10 vehicles for paperwork and challenges that will actually drop into another option.

[13:17] And we'll give notice of that when that happens.

[13:21] Any other departments?

[13:22] Yes.

[13:24] All right.

[13:24] Director of Social Services. I'm here to recognize some excellence in work by one of the divisions in social services.

[13:33] So I'd like to actually act to say that.

[13:36] Yolanda.

[13:40] We just received this achievement for 98.1 compliance rate for timely assessments in the fiscal year of 2020 to 2024.

[13:51] for our Pumis County, IHSS staff under Ashley's for view.

[13:57] In

[14:05] the second item, I'd like to invite Jennifer Brongby, who's been standing in.

[14:12] We have a vacant analyst's decision for CPS, and she's been coordinating the Children's Fair.

[14:17] She has an update for us today.

[14:19] Thank you.

[14:20] The Children's Fair is going to be on Saturday, May 17th at the Fairgrounds.

[14:24] It's going to be from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

[14:26] It's always a well attended event.

[14:28] Last year was over 300 families, or with children.

[14:35] There is free lunch.

[14:37] There's lots of boosts and activities.

[14:39] So we were invited to come.

[14:40] I have letters I'll leave up here.

[14:42] We would also like to extend an invitation

[14:45] for the Board of Supervisors to come and be present

[14:48] to present some of the gifts and prizes to some of the children.

[14:52] So if you're available,

[14:53] Maybe you could like, I don't know, and he could communicate that with us so that we can make sure that we've forgotten it that.

[14:59] So, I'll be for those there.

[15:00] So, thank you. Newly the Department of Health Service.

[15:04] Former public works.

[15:09] I want to give the Board of Public Update on what I found out last Friday, PG&E has a high-voltage tower above

[15:20] building that is in a slip zone, so they have plans for directing a new tower hand-pan digging

[15:30] putting for that to the least.

[15:33] The reason for the courts getting involved

[15:35] they'll be transferred to large concrete blocks

[15:38] both with the bells and bridge.

[15:41] Both won't be any traffic control on the bell and bridge,

[15:44] like there will be some potential traffic control

[15:47] on how we set the under-done the work.

[15:51] The plan is to do the hand digging and foundation work

[15:54] on May 9th and 10th and then the direction

[15:58] of the new tower, approximately June 6th, June 14th, so details are still so

[16:04] coming in on that, but that's what their plan is now. There'll be some track of control on

[16:12] average 70, they'll be using helicopters to transport the large concrete blocks for the foundation

[16:19] across the highway to give the foundation time and then also coming in with the pre-assembled tower.

[16:25] I'm told by PG, there won't be any interruption, won't be any interruption and it's a power during this, but

[16:34] PG, you'll be actually sending out more detailed update to the supervisors as well, but it's fine with that.

[16:42] Give everyone that update.

[16:44] Also, thank you, Rob.

[16:45] I'm going to need a department here in the room.

[16:49] How about any department heads on Zoom today?

[16:52] No department heads on Zoom.

[16:53] All right, go to our action agenda.

[16:57] I'm going to let supervisor Ingol take over

[17:00] from here for here on this two items.

[17:04] Go ahead, Jeff.

[17:06] Well, I just wanted to make,

[17:08] make no one that just me and is dedicated to the memory

[17:11] of Leonard Ross.

[17:12] I don't know how many of you live.

[17:14] You're long enough to know Leonard Ross,

[17:17] but I've known him probably since.

[17:21] Well, let's just say probably 62 years.

[17:24] He was a county supervisor for 16 years

[17:30] Very involved with getting the hospital started the annex bill

[17:35] Very influential

[17:38] Later he served with my father-in-law on the on the board of supervisors for years and

[17:45] I would read and is a bituary and he learned the butchering skills from a man named Leroy Beek

[17:54] Well, it just so happens, I bought the Lee Roy Beak Ranch about 26 years ago, but it's still funny what a small community, a small world it is, but I just wanted to let everybody know that Leonard had a lot of friends, he's a wonderful man and a great human being and he'll be so really missed.

[18:12] Thank you.

[18:20] Wonderful family, by the way.

[18:22] The next item is a proclamation on a good friend of mine, Paul Bianco, and this was requested

[18:34] by the daughter, Caleb Martin, and I told her I would put this on the agenda to honor

[18:42] her father, he was a great guy, a veteran,

[18:49] a long resident of Gregal, a couple of business

[18:51] is there, and if I could, I could read this proclamation, sir.

[18:55] You bet.

[18:55] Go right ahead.

[18:58] Uh, whereas the Plumus County Board of Supervisors declared June 4, 2020, 25, and every

[19:05] year thereafter to be Paul Bianco Day, and remembers of Bianco, Paul Bianco's longtime presence

[19:12] in Plumus County, area.

[19:15] Whereas, for nearly 40 years, Joseph Paul Bianco was an integral part of this community,

[19:21] From owning and masterfully running Gregal Stables in 1980s and 1990s to providing the community

[19:30] his craftsmanship and design skills be his tile company.

[19:35] Gregal tile to funding and running his veteran supporting non-profit 1 military mission, as well

[19:42] as writing and function as final masterpiece finding the way in Gregal.

[19:47] Rimsickle, Mountain Tales, and shameless lies, Paul was an iconic fixture in an unofficial

[19:54] steward of Greg O'Kalifornia.

[19:57] Whereas Paul Bianco's day is a day to honor and remember Paul and his contributions to

[20:03] the community, it is a day to remember his storytelling, work with Silver Tongue, orsmanship,

[20:09] craftsmanship, and his love and commitment for his home and plume of scouting.

[20:14] All new local landscape, like the back of his hand,

[20:18] including a great index, in-depth knowledge of

[20:21] gradual and surrounding areas, history, and backcountry.

[20:25] Now, therefore, the keep-all's memory alive, remember his one of a kind,

[20:30] character and recognize his contribution as a walking archive of this town,

[20:35] the Plummerscutter, or a supervisor to clear June 4th,

[20:39] 2025, and every year after,

[20:42] All Bianco Day and Plumus County.

[20:54] That's another good threat.

[20:57] That's a motion to make this all Bianco Day.

[21:01] Really move in a second.

[21:03] May I just say a few words?

[21:05] I mean, I need call in a different sense.

[21:09] So I don't know.

[21:09] Some of you were around when veteran services was floundering and needed a home.

[21:13] And we brought them into the public health agency.

[21:16] So that they could benefit from the staff and other services that we have, and Paul Bionko was a regular at the Veteran Services office at my office.

[21:30] He advocated for veterans. He really, really cared. And he was a funny guy.

[21:35] You do rides of veterans, it's a need of rides, Renoir.

[21:39] It was a volunteer, so I know that he made many other contributions in his life, but he made

[21:45] a real difference in helping to shape how we provide our services and putting a face to all

[21:51] of the veterans that we serve.

[21:55] I really moved and seconded it all in favor.

[21:58] I'm the opposed of curious. Good. All right. Updates and reports. We have the U.S. Force

[22:07] Service update for your report.

[22:19] Nice to see you again. So a few updates and then I've got some announcements at the end. So

[22:25] we've got some good news for the forest. The community protection projects.

[22:30] Special and west slope at people decision. We are expecting to have that signed, hopefully by the end of May. And officially want to thank all of those who engaged in the objection review process. I think we got to, I think we're going to get to a good space there.

[22:42] For recovery projects that North Fork, can we recovery project on the Mount Huff District? We had our meeting with objectives last week. And we're going to spend the next few weeks working through some options that they've raised that I think will help us again get to a better decision for them.

[22:56] And then for the tributaries recovery project, that public comment period closed on April 28th,

[23:02] staff is reviewing those comments.

[23:04] And hopefully I'll have some updates on that later this within the next month.

[23:08] See where we're going to go with that.

[23:11] Some of you may have seen in the news.

[23:12] The Department of Agriculture has her divided some new environmental review authorities for

[23:17] the Forest Service to address high risk firesheds.

[23:20] That really does impact the most of the firesheds in California.

[23:24] Now, we are reviewing that guidance to see how that can assist us in speeding up some of our

[23:29] need petitions for both tributaries and possibly the community protection side decision.

[23:35] So we're hoping that we'll be able to utilize some of those for the highest risk areas.

[23:40] And that assessment really is driven by comment we received on those additional environmental

[23:44] assessments where communities are located and the level of risk and combat aligns with

[23:52] It's a little earlier than normal this year, because whether it's been great, so you will

[23:57] start seeing your hope and have most of our campgrounds open by Memorial Day.

[24:01] We are still assessing certain sites to determine hazard trees or other maintenance issues

[24:05] that may keep from those floods.

[24:07] So we're not quite sure yet how many across the world we open, but we're hopeful that the vast majority

[24:13] of campgrounds will be open for the summer as planned.

[24:16] For fire safety, the forest was able to complete so far. This fiscal year we've had over

[24:21] 2,400 acres for prescribed fire in addition to partnering with Cal Fire and other private areas

[24:27] to support continued prescribed fire. We're excited about some of those risk reduction activities helping

[24:31] continue that as we get into underborne season. And then some announcements last month, Marty

[24:38] center who is our acting force fire management officer, came to represent meet here. I'm sorry, I couldn't be here, but effective may 18th Marty will take over as the new

[24:47] Climus chief one force fire management officer. For those of you who know him, he's grew up here in Climus County in Quincy and has worked for the

[24:55] Plumus National Force for over 20 years starting on a truck route. So we are really excited that he is going to stay on the forest and take over that leadership role.

[25:03] And then additionally on May 18th, we will welcome a new district ranger to the Mount

[25:08] Huff Ranger District.

[25:10] Her name is Liy Owen Johnson.

[25:11] She currently works in the Forest Service Region 3 office in Albuquerque, she has an extensive

[25:15] experience with wilderness areas and recreation support.

[25:19] And she is transferring here to the fullness to take over that district focus.

[25:24] We do not yet have an answer on our vacant forest.

[25:26] Supervisor Roll, but we are hopeful there is a lot of movement in the forest service right now.

[25:30] So we are hopeful we will hear soup on that vacancies.

[25:33] Awesome, thank you very much.

[25:36] All right, item one B is the assessor brief update and report that we have one of those today.

[25:40] Excuse me.

[25:43] Alrighty, one C1.

[25:45] Who Miss Housing Council receive a memorandum from,

[25:48] who Miss Housing Council on the monthly updates from May 2025.

[25:55] What did you do a quick update?

[25:56] We're really quickly.

[25:57] There's a memo that has posted the details into it.

[26:00] Overall, the housing council has grown.

[26:01] have their members at the last meeting and representation of these counties. So that was really great.

[26:07] The most exciting thing in this is more for the public comment or public awareness is we have

[26:13] the first home that was built under a program called Welcome Home criminal. It is a model that could be

[26:20] replicated across the county platform. And model is really that local community members

[26:26] pulled together their investment to build a house for sale with a sales price targeted at 275K.

[26:33] This is a three-bedroom two-bath home and we'll be located on POSP and throw the first one

[26:38] and then hopefully after that we can do home number two, three, four, and we'll have some homes

[26:44] for your sales that families can afford. Anyone that wants to contribute to the communities in

[26:49] support.

[26:53] So, it's a really big win and a joint effort for the community members support

[27:01] with the county and Tracy's been involved in the housing council. So, it's really a joint

[27:06] effort and she really affected us and people work together. So, the player for this home I'll

[27:12] put here. And, massive thanks to the community members for stepping up and to the county for

[27:19] Thank you so much.

[27:20] Thank you so much.

[27:23] All right.

[27:23] Item two is our consent agenda.

[27:26] These items are expected to be routine in our controversial

[27:29] The Board of Supervisors will act upon them at one time without discussion.

[27:33] Any four members, staff member and arrested party may request that any item be removed

[27:37] from the consent agenda for discussion.

[27:40] Additional budget appropriations and or allocations from reserves will require a

[27:44] this roll call book. So I'm going to move to sign up to do every public comment. Go ahead.

[27:58] Notice many of these five state federal funding attached to them.

[28:05] Is this an attempt to get things approved before the fence cut this federal money out?

[28:12] And what is the plan when these federal funds are cut and these funds are no longer available

[28:19] to these projects. So I don't know what could it ask for every one of these to be proposed.

[28:24] Sure, we could do that.

[28:26] I got to go in general.

[28:29] What's your going to be when these funds are done away with the how you're going to fund these

[28:32] back?

[28:33] Yeah, no problem.

[28:34] So you want to talk about them.

[28:36] So let's go ahead and where do you want to start?

[28:38] Everyone that says federal funding attacks by the moment.

[28:41] All right, let's do it.

[28:45] So social services behavioral health.

[28:50] and we're going to be here a while. Facilities, all right. Let me get my department heads in here,

[28:59] and we will talk about all of these. So, would you guys like to recall your motions and we'll

[29:06] bring up every single one of these up individually? Okay.

[29:18] Okay.

[29:31] Okay, let's go ahead and start, I guess, with B2, Social Services, approve an authorized

[29:37] chair to sign an agreement between Climus County Department of Social Services and Climus

[29:41] Rural Services for Cowords, Child Care Services, Effective July 1, 2025, not to exceed

[29:47] 233,129 dollars, you know, General Fund Impact State and Federal Sources, approved as

[29:53] the form by County Council. Go ahead. So any questions? Go ahead, Deborah.

[29:58] I'd like to have this panel for you.

[30:00] First of all, what's the plan to fill that gap in public eligibility if we're on?

[30:06] That's a good question. Thank you for asking. This is a no-general fund impact, and it's something that we do where we are in social suicide. If you would like to bring a presentation back and put it in that next week.

[30:18] I mean, do you want to go to the state calendar?

[30:23] I'm deaf, sorry.

[30:24] I mean, would you want to go to the state calendar?

[30:27] The board can still vote on that.

[30:30] But it can be withdrawn out.

[30:31] It already is, in effect, withdrawn out of the consent calendar for discussion.

[30:35] So we're discussing it right now.

[30:37] And I speak to this for discussion.

[30:38] Sure.

[30:38] I have a lot of social services.

[30:41] So our funding, it's state funds, it's general funds,

[30:44] and also realignment money.

[30:46] So, each of our programs have a share in philosophy to state that are coming really

[30:51] at length and then these are our services that we do.

[30:59] The child care, health care, health care services for our public health care services, for our

[31:03] public health care services, for our public health care services, for our public health care services,

[31:06] and the last of our energy and care classes are usually poor water,

[31:11] and more parents who are in the review of vacation or

[31:19] vacation or they have made this, so that they can get the services to our

[31:23] mental health and we can get the services back in their homes.

[31:29] And if the federal funds were to see it back then, we would still be receiving

[31:34] the state dollars and we would still have our new language, so we would still have a

[31:41] may I provide some clarification? I don't know that everyone knows what

[31:45] realignment dollars are in California. So realignment, there are different

[31:50] phases of realignment that the state did in times when there was a state budget

[31:54] and cash prices. The first realignment was in 1991 and it realigned services

[32:00] that the state contract it to county health and human services to a direct

[32:06] allocation from sales tax and vehicle license fees to those services. So now

[32:11] what happens is, instead of county's contracting with the state, there was a time in pre-91

[32:18] when we had a whole, awful state budget crunch. Cash crunch. Budget is different than cash.

[32:23] They could not pay us in a timely manner. It happened another time in 2008. But what real

[32:29] line is it's direct dollars from sales tax, vehicle license fees. So it's not impacted by how

[32:37] the state cash situation is because we're getting those dollars and actually for social

[32:42] services, public health mental health, those dollars get transferred monthly. So it was

[32:47] a way for the state to make sure that the county dollars for health and human services

[32:52] weren't reliant on the state of the state budget.

[32:57] Federal question not a state right and so what we're saying is those dollars will still be

[33:02] available should the federal dollars not be available. However, the federal dollars aren't just a sweet federal or not federal.

[33:11] So the dollars that have so far been preserved and we're following this to our California State Association of Counties

[33:17] is for most of the health and human services, these people call entitlement funds.

[33:23] Many of them are staying intact. There's a lot of talk about adding certain requirements and everything that hasn't happened.

[33:29] And so we're following that very closely and luckily, it's not a majority of our funds.

[33:37] So it's probably not going to be as impactful as if we were primarily, or even a majority, rely on in federal funds.

[33:46] But it will be impactful. I'm not saying that it isn't. It gives us some room to readjust as a county.

[33:52] We have a public comment on Zoom, can we hear

[34:08] it?

[34:08] Oh, mine is, oh, go ahead.

[34:11] What do you have a comment on as well?

[34:13] Go ahead.

[34:14] It is, um,

[34:18] they're prodding the, um,

[34:23] if you have prodding the traffic,

[34:27] or if

[34:31] you're not trying to help them, you're hurting.

[34:36] And, um, you people are going to let it mention any names all the time left to

[34:48] me.

[34:48] I'm just seeing a man change.

[34:54] Who hit the color on Zoom, go ahead.

[35:09] Zoom color.

[35:22] What's going to happen to social services programs for the citizens?

[35:29] Any federal money that it's not a city.

[35:31] Okay, you're saying that you have money to cover a lot, but you're not saying what you don't have money to cover. So I think that's the question that we let's drill in.

[35:43] Okay, it comes. Go ahead.

[35:47] We are working the budget for the slate. We've also seen about the experience from CWDA that the child welfare to our terms association for watching the legislation and the impact on budgets.

[35:58] I can get transmittled every week, usually on a daily basis right now, informing us

[36:04] to reach program areas where we'll be affected.

[36:07] A lot of the large counties have started to impact on their rate of services.

[36:13] For right now, I have no intoxication for them, and I'm happy to put together a presentation

[36:18] and bring it back before the board is bringing more information as we learn more from our association

[36:23] with life specifics and see that this is needed until a second. Jeff, do I want a 2021

[36:30] could I ask that you take this off this consent factor and bring it back with your

[36:36] presentation. We've got the part before the launch. We can do that. I just know that it might

[36:46] impact services that we can plan for. We'll impact services. I think we're good and told

[36:56] that's why we have these conference before the board so we can get the approval for the next cycle, but we are happy to be together for the presentation.

[37:02] We're going to back to the board.

[37:04] Give additional information to the board.

[37:07] I think it's here.

[37:08] So that would be on item.

[37:10] I'd like to ask one more question.

[37:13] I'm going to round and ask the questions.

[37:17] who

[37:20] oversees CBS in this county and they serve CBS often not to have anybody seen

[37:27] overseeing.

[37:28] That's because...

[37:30] In my personal opinion, you got it. Salin and Jaskin Archie.

[37:35] It is outside of the agenda item. I appreciate you coming, but it's outside the agenda item. So, we are going to pull B2 then, and we'll put it on for another presentation.

[37:46] Also, the next one up that's State and Federal Funding is Behavioral Health, C2, a proven

[37:54] authorized chair to sign an agreement between the Women's County Behavioral Health and

[37:58] Sierra Vista Hospital for Behavioral Health and Psychiatric Disorders and Chemical Dependency.

[38:04] Effective July 1, 2025, not to exceed $100,000.

[38:07] No general impact, state federal funding sources,

[38:12] approved as performed by County Council.

[38:15] Senator Bister and a very few folks are acute psychiatric hospitals

[38:20] for people that have been placed on the 1550

[38:23] for their own safety or public safety,

[38:26] but it is medical funded.

[38:30] And then we also have read a lot of that money

[38:32] that they've introduced because

[38:33] it's medical disinfectant paid for the entire costs.

[38:36] If you didn't have these contracts, we would have no place to put people that are on the 51-50.

[38:44] And they would basically be kind of second-lando in the ER rooms, which nobody wants.

[38:51] We want to get the people that help that they need and get them back in the community.

[38:57] Any comments or questions?

[38:58] This has the same situation where our government had a headlight until July 1 or July 2

[39:04] with one case.

[39:06] I also wish for the expense to leave you class.

[39:09] You come back with a presentation that shows what you'll plan in.

[39:14] If federal funds are withdrawn, building whatever those gaps are.

[39:18] Right now, the year of health does not know what kids are going to do, so don't let me go.

[39:24] So we don't let you.

[39:30] It's going to happen, maybe not this going to happen, maybe something that's going to happen.

[39:34] Once we get into that information, we can present a thoughtful presentation to the people,

[39:41] but right now we're in a lot of shame.

[39:43] So that's still latest, and so it really is necessary.

[39:47] It's not so July 1 or 2 on that.

[39:49] You know, it'd be for many of people that need the help.

[39:52] Why?

[39:53] How did you harm them? This says, you don't, it's exactly a lie second. It's because our contracts

[40:00] are here at least, so we have to make sure that they're in place before the because if the contract

[40:07] ended, Sarah and her still would not take our clients. So it would form people with a community,

[40:15] and that's being able to get them into the hospital that they need to be in. I used to make my

[40:27] I would like to say, I mean, I used to be a behavioral health director.

[40:33] I used to be a health director and many of these contracts require 68 weeks processing by the entity that you're contracting with.

[40:42] So if you miss out window and you have a severely mentally ill person or person in crisis,

[40:47] that needs to be placed in a hospitalized setting, you can't, you have no option.

[40:53] And so it is totally not prudent to wait until June 30th, or even wait a few more weeks

[40:59] because you put the process we've injured, what I'd rather do is we get in this process

[41:07] of ending every single contract or not approving contracts because we don't know what the

[41:12] we're holding, we're holding, we are providing harm to our community members and maybe services.

[41:18] What I suggest is we go into these contracts and should we get a notice of termination

[41:23] from the federal government that arts grant and our contract is ending, then it ends.

[41:29] The federal government has contracts with us. They have methodologies of paying us.

[41:34] And what I found in the state budget crisis that we had before and actually in some

[41:38] federal items now is you provide services that you're getting paid for.

[41:44] If they pull back those dollars, you're not obligated to provide those services.

[41:48] So that's why we say wait and see, because these are federal dollars that are given to

[41:55] states and counties for providing certain services.

[41:57] So if they pull back the dollars, the assumption is the services aren't going to be provided.

[42:02] But we have to wait and see, if we just stop contacting everything, we provide, stop providing

[42:07] services and the funds keep flowing. How does that serve our community well? So that's my viewpoint

[42:13] just from having worked in this field for twenty-five years.

[42:18] Go ahead, sir. Just a quick comment. As you said, 50-150s for the album and emergency room,

[42:29] there's a string day in your QR-on voice that other people and not emergency room,

[42:33] positive impacts to Sherry Department. So, I support that we move forward with these contact

[42:40] because it is the major situation with our community. Can you say that you're going to hold

[42:46] them in the hospital? Do you cannot do that?

[42:50] Thank you.

[42:51] Any other public comments regarding this item?

[42:53] I told me I understand what you're saying about the danger. I don't want anybody in

[42:57] But I'm saying yes, we have to stop with our pet in the Senate and not doing the prudent thing and being responsible.

[43:06] Governors of this county, which you guys have got a piss for job at in a lot of situations already.

[43:13] You need to have a plan.

[43:15] You need to have this broken down.

[43:17] You can't just go dollar grab it like you're trying to do now.

[43:21] You need to have a plan of places as if these federal money goes away.

[43:26] which shows how we're no threat than it will. It wouldn't hurt to delay until the next meeting.

[43:32] Nobody's going to get dead between now and then. You still have time on your contract to

[43:39] convince somebody if you need to. But if you don't, you have your new contract. We're working on

[43:45] what to do if the federal Medicaid is cut. But again, we don't have the necessary

[43:51] information to make, and then an intelligent decision on what we are going to do.

[43:56] How much of this contract gives federal money?

[44:01] It's money.

[44:03] It's a $100,000.

[44:06] I'm not sure.

[44:07] I'm not sure.

[44:08] You should at least have that answer if you say it's $100,000.

[44:12] It is because, like now that it is, if that's a government date and we do get the

[44:18] facts.

[44:18] I do don't understand there is a lot of uncertainty with the federal government, but at that point

[44:25] to my movement, I have to figure out how can we hospitalize people safely?

[44:31] Okay, but if you don't have a lot of the right kind of time, then it's just what we said, please.

[44:35] I think that's what we're responsible. Thank you. Can you turn the error out or the heat down

[44:39] is really harder than the babies? Please. All right, so we've pulled this item.

[44:46] We're discussing it. Rick, go ahead.

[45:00] Good very well in effect, and that you can give to look at planning to, there is absolutely no vessel money happening.

[45:09] I'm hearing your ducks in a row and thinking about what you want to keep what I have, and how to tell just the last thing I've said, is that if you are making some plans.

[45:20] Because from what you have to make those plans at the last minute, you need to be talking about thinking about yourself.

[45:26] I'm sorry, people would all like to know where you're going to get that money from.

[45:30] Well, and that's a huge question that I can't answer in the day, but I will say not

[45:38] not a lot of just contract, but it's wonderful to people in the community, it's sort of

[45:43] short of a reality, it's wonderful to our class. I'm not saying that, I'm just saying

[45:48] If you're planning, yes, in case, and you, I mean, your impacts will have a kind of the finer

[45:55] cost saying that you have a federal money doesn't come.

[46:00] This is what they're about, because in part of that also is, if the federal money doesn't

[46:05] kind of think what mandates will we be released from, because in everything we do is some sort of

[46:12] you know, for the state, for the federal government. So in the federal, the leaders have been through

[46:19] what they're going to release us from all of our mandates. And so then we can release

[46:24] spread of drives to what it means to happen. But I kind of say hospitalization of people that are

[46:30] in danger for being themselves sort of others is the priority number one. And I don't recommend that we've

[46:36] this. We're going to start my time.

[46:43] Let me ask a couple of questions. Number one is, the day

[46:48] the contract was in so far, which would give me a lot of first of all that I heard. So we

[46:53] handle $100,000, are the way handle its money as a patient goes back and forth into this.

[47:01] I think you would say asking that.

[47:04] So our contracts always say the top limit of what you might have to use, but we almost never go to the top limit.

[47:17] So that doesn't mean we're going to give away $100,000.

[47:24] and not having the ability to control the amount driven to take care of the patient, okay?

[47:34] So if we don't have the money together because the federal government is not going to bear with us.

[47:39] We do have some real life at least that comes to a bad.

[47:44] We do have some backup plans, which I mean that way, somebody is not listening about.

[47:51] It's not going to bankrupt the general fund, because the money is not coming from the general fund, is that correct?

[48:01] It's not my time.

[48:05] Okay.

[48:06] Okay.

[48:07] Sure.

[48:07] Let's go ahead.

[48:10] Since both of these islands that you're considering going,

[48:13] but seriously, if that's the share on the side, we've got to fully request the board,

[48:18] ask both of these items.

[48:20] With the understanding that each department had good brain in, each representation that basically says,

[48:28] if that whole funding stops, this is what we're going to do, and how we're going to accomplish

[48:33] a whole contract that could take weeks or whatever the process that will affect the citizens of the community,

[48:42] and certainly the sheriff's office. Again, I would just respectfully request pass both of them and allow them to come back

[48:49] It's, yeah, it's your desire to give you a presentation.

[48:53] That's kind of where I was going to go with this as well.

[48:55] So anyway, back to the board.

[48:57] Any other comments here in the room?

[48:59] Any comments on Zoom?

[49:01] So one.

[49:03] Oh, go ahead.

[49:10] Hi, can you hear me?

[49:11] Yes, go ahead.

[49:13] Okay, I wanted to say, I think you should pass that.

[49:16] And it's the federal funding thing for the mentally unstable people.

[49:24] in Plumless County. I was at ER nurse for many years at PTH and we had to hold several

[49:35] 51-50 patients because we could not either get a hospital or something. And it put not only the

[49:44] public, but the nurse is at risk, I was choked very badly from behind from 51, 50 patients

[49:56] that had to stand ER for almost 24 hours. So, because of, you know, we couldn't get

[50:04] funded all that. So, I think that we should pass that for everyone's safety.

[50:11] Thank you.

[50:15] All right, so since we pulled C2 and 3, two C2 and 3, one lead to take those up separately,

[50:25] let's go ahead and discuss those, or we're already discussed in my look for motion for those two.

[50:31] I can motion the pass.

[50:33] Yeah.

[50:34] Ready to move?

[50:35] We have a second.

[50:36] Second.

[50:37] Second, roll call on those two items.

[50:38] supervisor angle yes, sir. Sola yes, sir.

[50:43] Roger McGowan yes, sir Paul yes.

[50:46] Yes, any other consent agenda items that would like to be pulled.

[50:51] For discussion.

[50:54] If not, I'll look for a motion for the rest of the.

[50:57] People don't want to play the one.

[51:00] We need to be choose.

[51:02] Well, we got one.

[51:05] I don't know what.

[51:06] Um, but it's border body.

[51:10] That's okay.

[51:11] Let's go ahead and do B2 then.

[51:13] I'll look for motions on that.

[51:14] I'll make it for the pet.

[51:17] Okay.

[51:17] Right in the mood.

[51:18] Seconded roll calls.

[51:19] Lisa's eyes are able.

[51:20] Yes.

[51:20] I would serve solo.

[51:21] Yes.

[51:21] We're down.

[51:22] Yes.

[51:23] Yes.

[51:24] All right.

[51:26] Now, but the rest of the consent agenda.

[51:28] We're going to do the motion to the same.

[51:30] Yeah.

[51:30] We'll leave the motion still the same.

[51:32] We'll do a roll.

[51:33] And roll.

[51:34] So we're all.

[51:34] Yes.

[51:35] We're going.

[51:36] Yes.

[51:36] a very full list of the English. Yes, I'll read it off. Yes. All right. I want to item 3A1

[51:45] planning. Tracy Ferguson, this is continued from April 8, 2020, five,

[51:49] standard zone change, CC, nine dash two, three, slash two, four, dash to one, zoning ordinance update

[51:57] on the Board of Supervisors Motion of April 8, 2020, five, and information pertaining to

[52:03] of Government Code Section 658-54, effectively of January 1, 2025, under Assembly Bill 29-04-2024

[52:13] that requires local agencies to give at least 20 days notice before a planning commission

[52:19] holds a public hearing on an ordinance, not affecting the permitted uses of real-prime,

[52:25] The discussion only.

[52:27] Trace it.

[52:28] Okay, so I'm here to-

[52:30] I'd like to provide an update on that voter supervisor's motion on April 8th. So, the Board during the

[52:38] April, the public hearing did receive additional public comment on the Santa Grande zone change

[52:44] application. The public hearing was closed and there was a motion made by supervisor McGowan to bring

[52:50] back the item today on May 6th in order for myself and the applicant to meet on the personal and

[52:57] look to see if there was any possibility of seeing what is the 150 foot buffer from those properties

[53:04] along Highway 147, which then would reduce the acreage of the farm animal combining zone, thereby

[53:11] reducing the care and capacity of the hooked animals. And so on May 1st, the applicant and I,

[53:19] Nicole Sandiger, met on the property to walk the entire nine acres, which we did, and the applicant

[53:27] had flagged the 150-foot line from what would be those parcels along 147. So 150-foot was

[53:35] fairly delineated. I have photographed evidence in the record of that. And the conclusion after

[53:43] walking the parcel and talking with the pool, Stanniger was that there are no areas that

[53:51] She directed myself as staff to remove from those nine acres.

[53:56] And therefore, the owner applicant continues to propose the 150-foot buffer along the western property line,

[54:03] as recommended and presented in the Plenty Commission Resolution that was duly passed and adopted on March the 2025.

[54:12] So the applicant continues to want to look at the nine acres in total, which would yield 18 potential hooked animals.

[54:23] Secondly, I want to update the board on a public hearing noticing item. So on April the 18th of 2025, I was made aware of a new government code section 65854 that is effective January 1st of 2025 under Assembly Bill 29.

[54:42] which requires local agencies to give at least 20 days notice before planning commission holds a public hearing on an ordinance affecting permitted uses of real property.

[54:53] And so the Sanagger application is subject to this new government code section 65854.

[55:00] On April 18, I did alert county council as soon as I was made aware of this new legislation and did receive a county council opinion on April 28.

[55:11] 2025 confirming that, yes, the application is subject to government code section 65854 for those required noticing timeframes.

[55:24] So due to the nature of the zone change and the fact that the notice for the March 2025, which was the planning commission public hearing was given notice on March 10 of 2025.

[55:37] Only 10 days notice that to remedy the government code section, effective January 1, 2025 again,

[55:47] that this application needs to return to the planning commission and be properly noticed for a period,

[55:52] not less than 20 days, and that for public information, the soonest regular meeting of the planning commission

[55:59] with a 20-day public notice would be June 5, 2025.

[56:05] I will make a mention that since the forward meeting of April the 8th, there has been additional

[56:15] public comment, which is in the back up to my staff report today. I'm not going to read those

[56:20] aloud. The public hearing was closed. In addition, I do have parties of some additional information

[56:27] from the WICMANS, there was a public record request, you recall, and county did respond to that

[56:34] public record, actual request, the WICMANS responded back. County is not, not with the work.

[56:44] We don't have to, you know, like, a PRA is not a back and forth, okay? So, so the WICMANS responded back,

[56:49] we've received that information and I want you to have that information as the board and enter that

[56:54] to the record, which it is in the admin record. So, we responded in time for state law, but there was

[57:01] additional response back from the wickments, as I mentioned, so 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. Okay, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.

[57:10] I do have a few extra copies for those members and the audience that want to have a copy of that.

[57:17] And so today is an informational item for you to receive this information

[57:21] And, and that right, this application is is now going back to planning commission to be properly noticed at nine acres, uh, for the applicant to go ahead.

[57:34] So then depends on not properly noticed.

[57:37] If you're approval, there is no one in a building starts over.

[57:42] So there was no people on this application yet.

[57:45] There was a planning commission recommendation to approve the board had not taken action yet.

[57:49] So we'll go back to the planning mission for what would be a re-hearing of it.

[57:54] The admin records SAMs, the public comments SAMs.

[57:57] We can receive additional public comment during this time period, which we have.

[58:01] And that's what the comments are going to do.

[58:03] Oh, it's absolutely, yeah, not in the public hearing process.

[58:05] But I received public comments at any time.

[58:08] We'll go back to the planning commission with a properly noticed public hearing,

[58:11] which we will then receive additional public comment to their beanie.

[58:14] And the boxes are here. The boxes will proceed exactly.

[58:17] And so at the direction of the applicant, the soonest, we can go back to the planning commission,

[58:22] was we doing fifth, and then there'll be another public here here, or there will be one planning

[58:27] commission public hearing with a resolution to recommend support supervisors, whatever the planning

[58:34] commission sees fifth, and then they will come back to the forward for what would be a resolution

[58:41] and ordinance adoption with public hearing and public conversation. Thank you. Thank you very much. Sure.

[58:49] Any other public comments? Go ahead.

[59:09] I spoke to this at the last time you had this on your agenda.

[59:14] And I've been thinking a lot about it.

[59:18] Well, I haven't been directly involved with a general plan of state, but I've been aware of them in my district here and in the Vatican where I spent 20 years.

[59:29] And I know that counties, when they do a general plan of state, theoretically, anywhere, they spend a lot of time on land use.

[59:38] and improving the various areas for whatever the land use changes might be.

[59:48] And I feel like make this simple,

[59:52] what the board was planning to do, that last meeting,

[59:56] was sort of willing, willing, and the planning mission too.

[1:00:00] It's like, oh, we're just going to change this because the owners task for it and they check all the boxes.

[1:00:07] I haven't seen all the boxes, I haven't seen the list, but the fact that you have a checklist in the planning commission for to be your check-to-not means that you're wanting to make sure that this zoning change does not affect the county and the neighbors.

[1:00:28] and you current loudly from the neighbors last time that it's not going to only affect

[1:00:35] their property values but it's going to affect their lifestyle and I went, I did not go to

[1:00:42] see the property in question but I looked on the truth. It's a hillside that's forested.

[1:00:51] It's not a passion. I'm a farmer. I have lifestyle. I have fields. They're not

[1:00:59] calcides, but trees on them. That's what you want for domestic livestock. You want pasture.

[1:01:06] You don't want to clear all the trees off a hillside and say, oh, this is a passion now. It's not.

[1:01:11] It never will be. Plus they're upscale from all these holidays. So to say that there's no

[1:01:17] fat on their neighbors down below is ridiculous in my opinion. So that's what I think is.

[1:01:26] Yeah, let's go ahead and surf. So I just please, one of those neighbors

[1:01:30] having the opportunity to go back to the process that obviously there was an error,

[1:01:36] most of us couldn't be applying permission to begin, which we will be next time.

[1:01:43] We

[1:01:44] We really would appreciate having a joint meeting with the land owner and Tracy, so we could all hear together issues.

[1:01:55] Because some of us that individually and very not being able to make very flare to some of us, that it was her property, she would do what she wanted with it.

[1:02:08] So when you pay on as long as you have a hundred and fifty foot for a share, that those animals will not be grazing right above our wells.

[1:02:20] So thank you whoever made the mistake, we're happy that we didn't go back to this process and absolutely you will understand the impacts that this is trying to have.

[1:02:31] Give any other public comment in regards to this.

[1:02:34] Any public comment on Zoom?

[1:02:36] No comment on Zoom.

[1:02:39] All right.

[1:02:40] It's like to make one comment,

[1:02:43] which I feel was quite unusual here in Plumis County.

[1:02:51] The applicant has gone through the process.

[1:02:56] Every step of the way.

[1:02:58] This new law is another opportunity for the neighbors

[1:03:02] in the community to voice their opinion, but the applicant has been complying with the law,

[1:03:11] complying with the process, spending over backwards to see what's necessary and make those

[1:03:19] changes if possible. What's being proposed is a different type of pasture called silver pasture

[1:03:27] within trees and that's that's a little different. But concerns are well noted. I just wanted

[1:03:35] to point out that the applicant isn't just going and doing it like many people in this county

[1:03:42] do and depend on code enforcement to come and correct the action. So please feel where they're

[1:03:51] are playing by the rules.

[1:03:54] How many other comments from board members?

[1:03:58] So Tracy, I'll be going back to the final commission then.

[1:04:02] And, uh...

[1:04:02] As soon as June 5th, um, but at the direction of the applicant.

[1:04:06] So, um, those neighbors within three other feet will be noticed,

[1:04:09] um, then 20 days of the date of the final commission public hearing.

[1:04:14] Man, make another suggestion, uh,

[1:04:16] somehow rather extend the notification beyond three other feet,

[1:04:21] because in this type of environment,

[1:04:24] that doesn't affect very many people

[1:04:26] whereas the change would affect further out

[1:04:31] than the 300 feet.

[1:04:33] My name is part of all consider that.

[1:04:35] Supervisor McGowan, how far would you?

[1:04:38] Just at our discretion, the consideration of that?

[1:04:41] And using the,

[1:04:43] Plumison and other public government.

[1:04:46] You're in the direct, you're in the board.

[1:04:48] So, and you're the district supervisor?

[1:04:54] I've, a thousand feet doesn't sound unreasonable because that's not,

[1:04:58] that when you configure acreage and lots,

[1:05:01] that's only including two or three more watts.

[1:05:06] Kind of however we'll consider a thousand foot noticing.

[1:05:08] Thank you.

[1:05:10] You know, the comments go ahead, sir.

[1:05:11] I don't need time.

[1:05:12] The little bit of time up.

[1:05:14] So, not saying that she had all the process.

[1:05:18] We're saying that the process was salty and making it an exemption and just going down.

[1:05:24] You should have to do it.

[1:05:26] The other thing, you know, the top of the park, you know, is we wanted to stop seeing anything in the park.

[1:05:31] A good occasion.

[1:05:32] The railroad of Sierra Pacific.

[1:05:34] And yet there's not a good fencing.

[1:05:37] Will those animals roam on the Sierra Pacific as well as drive above our wells?

[1:05:44] There's a lot of questions still here.

[1:05:46] I said, I appreciate your opportunity to be able to go back,

[1:05:53] disagree with some of what Mr. McGowan said that this is for a raise.

[1:05:58] Okay. All right, thank you very much.

[1:06:01] Thank you so much.

[1:06:03] All right.

[1:06:04] I know three being one.

[1:06:08] Well, I'm a quick.

[1:06:08] We're going to turn the air conditioning up real quick.

[1:06:19] All right.

[1:06:20] Three being one behavioral health.

[1:06:23] Actually, I'll take a break here and wait till I'm pretty pleased.

[1:06:32] I'll just take a break.

[1:06:36] Do you want to take a break?

[1:06:47] Three B1, received a report from staff regarding the closure of the Quincy Wellness discussion.

[1:06:53] Yes, I'm just going to say that this has already been what we've been for the

[1:07:00] behavioral health commission, they voted that we could close the center that we'd like the opportunity to just to explain and if there's any questions through.

[1:07:12] So our Quincy one wellness center that is located downtown right next to where PNG I used to be.

[1:07:19] was originally opened in replacement of our drop-in center that was out on

[1:07:24] building and the intention of the Quincy Wellness Center was basically for it to

[1:07:29] continue being.

[1:07:30] The drop-in center, but in a different location that was more central for people to be able to get to and not have to travel so far.

[1:07:38] Unfortunately, that is not the way that it can't out.

[1:07:42] The Quincy Wellness Center has never been utilized the way that the drop-in center was used and the numbers of people that were serving from the Quincy Wellness Center has gradually dropped over time to where

[1:07:57] this January we hit a very significant low in the number of people that we're surfing.

[1:08:04] So we brought it up what would be the appropriate thing to do at this point if it's not

[1:08:09] surfing the community the way that it was intended to. So the discussion came up to

[1:08:15] close the Quincy Wellness Center. All of the services that are offered out of the Quincy Wellness

[1:08:20] center are offered out at our annex, that we have your health annexed, so no services are being

[1:08:28] lost to the community of Quincy. It's just a change of where those we located. The number

[1:08:36] of people that we have currently been serving out of the Quincy wellness center are just

[1:08:41] two people a day. It's costs about 40,000 just to rent, have electricity, run the bill.

[1:08:50] Then you add staff on top of that, you have to have at least two staff members to be able to keep the center open.

[1:09:00] So you put in those salaries and everything and you're talking about a pretty large chunk of money to only serve two individuals a day that can get those services out at the mechanics.

[1:09:09] So we would like to move forward with giving the public two weeks notice for closing the center to the public and transferring what services are happening there, out to the points to the annex, and then moving forward with canceling our lease on that building and moving out in 60 to 90 days.

[1:09:36] There are any questions?

[1:09:43] What do you mean?

[1:09:45] It's annually for like the rents that you tell to use all of that.

[1:09:50] Yes.

[1:09:50] So.

[1:09:52] We comment on Zoom.

[1:09:55] No comments on Zoom.

[1:09:56] Any more comments here in the room?

[1:09:58] Got a question.

[1:10:01] or as kind of Quincy and you're shutting it down and we'll have to go to the annexes.

[1:10:10] We do have transportation for them so that would be available.

[1:10:14] Yes, so there's the community best that we also have transportation staff members who if the individual

[1:10:21] needs transportation to get out there, we can get that scheduled and we just have to have advance

[1:10:27] Notice to be able to do that to get it scheduled, but yes.

[1:10:33] Okay, any other questions?

[1:10:36] Thank you so much.

[1:10:37] Thank you.

[1:10:40] All right.

[1:10:41] 3C1 information technology.

[1:10:43] Greg Ellison, a proven authorized chair to sign and ratify amendment.

[1:10:48] Number one to the agreement between

[1:10:50] Thomas County Information Technology and CW-G for additional

[1:10:55] Crown strike licenses for sheriff's office in general fund impact approved in the fiscal year

[1:11:02] 2425 mid-year budget approved as performed by county council discussion and possible action.

[1:11:08] Good morning. Good morning. Yeah, so a couple of months ago County IT took over responsibilities

[1:11:15] of IT for the sheriff's office due to retirement. There were many identified improvements.

[1:11:22] This is one of them.

[1:11:24] This would be their end-point detection and response,

[1:11:27] essentially antivirus and security operations center.

[1:11:32] So 24-7 security operations center to provide them with

[1:11:38] cybersecurity, the share of softments.

[1:11:42] The questions, comments?

[1:11:44] Additional comments?

[1:11:45] Share of anything?

[1:11:48] I would say they're going to stand and stop.

[1:11:50] We've created every second.

[1:11:51] spend, I've shared a lot of this with my base.

[1:11:58] And we're, we're, we're, we're much support of these

[1:11:59] questions.

[1:12:00] We can't spend a long haul for them and have a heavy load

[1:12:03] and a feeling the house is best in the can.

[1:12:07] So, also, any comments on Zoom?

[1:12:11] Yes, I have one.

[1:12:12] Go ahead.

[1:12:15] Hi, this is Ted Stout, resident of Indian Valley.

[1:12:19] And I have a question as to how much this amount is,

[1:12:23] It's not in the agenda.

[1:12:24] I did look in the agenda and I saw a value of 29,000 and changes.

[1:12:30] That's the total amount that's being asked for.

[1:12:33] Yes, currently.

[1:12:35] So every year, previously, we had 300 licenses available to us.

[1:12:40] We were essentially toped out there.

[1:12:43] So they sell these in book licenses of 100.

[1:12:47] So now we'll be paying for 400.

[1:12:49] So this is basically that amount is

[1:12:51] rated until this month of 2026. So we won't have to renew this contract until 2026 for all

[1:13:00] county and and share us all this licenses.

[1:13:05] So that means to the county we can expect that to be

[1:13:08] $120,000 a year in change. No I believe if I remember properly it's around 55. So when we renew

[1:13:14] It will be around $55,000.

[1:13:17] Thank you.

[1:13:18] You're welcome.

[1:13:20] You're welcome.

[1:13:21] You're welcome.

[1:13:25] Yeah.

[1:13:25] So the company is CrowdStrike.

[1:13:27] The licenses are for each endpoint.

[1:13:29] So every computer server needs to have one of these licenses installed on them.

[1:13:35] And what that does is provide security for that specific applications.

[1:13:46] And today's fast-paced changes to technology and attacks, we've heard that C-SAC and RZRC,

[1:13:57] even the bigger companies are being attacked in terms of 100,000 times per day.

[1:14:05] And this is something where we're aware of and have a kept pace with and this is a way of protecting the data,

[1:14:14] the information and the public who interacts with us. So it's necessary and I'm glad that you

[1:14:22] brought it to our attention. So that being said, I'll move to a prove as to the session.

[1:14:28] All right, regularly moved. Any other public comment?

[1:14:33] Yes.

[1:14:34] What's the question you've gotten just said, our current system we work a lot into anywhere from one to three or four hundred times a day that people are trying to get into our system.

[1:14:47] Under the term system I also have been in three agencies in the state.

[1:14:52] large agencies.org tab and look for shut down by malware to where they are.

[1:15:00] If the I had to actually come in with full teams and help them reboot their system, it cost them, not hundreds of thousands of millions of all of their services to be in fact running in.

[1:15:10] So again, I can't say enough about what they're trying to do and help us out, so appreciate it.

[1:15:16] I just have a question, is there contingency, so if Crowd Strike gets hacked, then does that put all their customers of risk and how is there contingency for that sort of thing?

[1:15:30] If Crowd Strike was successfully hacked, the global economy would explode, so hopefully that does not happen.

[1:15:37] As far as the contingency, you know, there's other built-in antivirus and windows, Microsoft

[1:15:45] Appender, that's not disabled by us, so that's a second option.

[1:15:51] With cyber security, you really want to think of it as, kind of, like, a onion for malicious

[1:15:54] multiple wires to it, right?

[1:15:56] So, this is just really for the endpoint piece of it, which is the computer.

[1:16:02] The next piece that will hopefully be bringing to you guys soon is the permanent firewall,

[1:16:06] which is that first layer.

[1:16:07] So that's between us and now, it's like where, so you just really need to approach it and not banter,

[1:16:12] but like I said, you know, there are other options there that are built in by Windows.

[1:16:16] So Microsoft would have to stop it and really defend us against CrowdStrike.

[1:16:21] Hopefully, like I said, hopefully that never happens.

[1:16:23] I would be comparable for the world, but that that's based on the point that we'll have a place that.

[1:16:31] Thank you.

[1:16:31] Yeah, you know, comments, questions, we have a motion on the floor,

[1:16:35] So I supervise them a gallon, second from Jeff Engel, and all the favor.

[1:16:41] Any opposed?

[1:16:43] Posting carries.

[1:16:44] Thank you.

[1:16:45] All right.

[1:16:46] Next up, Sheriff's Office, a proven authorized budget transfer in the Sheriff's AB443.

[1:16:52] We're all in small county law enforcement funds.

[1:16:55] Department 70331 of 361,277 dollars from software fixed asset account.

[1:17:04] Number 5, 4, 0, 4, 1, 2, 2, 2, software, service and supply account, 5, 2, 0, 4, 1, 1,

[1:17:12] to correct funds budget issue one count in error, approved by an auger controller, 4, 5,

[1:17:18] roll call.

[1:17:19] Good morning, Board.

[1:17:22] Kind of council.

[1:17:24] Good.

[1:17:24] So yes, this funding need to be transferred out of a fixed asset as a software program.

[1:17:31] This is all been pre-approved. It's moving the money so we can pay the final bill for our rents programming

[1:17:39] It's not a general funding back comes out of ARPA funding and up the small and rural law enforcement fund

[1:17:47] It should be fine comments here in the room

[1:17:50] Any comments on zoom

[1:17:52] No comments on zoom

[1:17:55] Jeff has a motion on the floor

[1:17:57] Right.

[1:17:58] Right.

[1:17:58] It has a second roll call.

[1:18:00] Please.

[1:18:00] As far as the angle.

[1:18:01] As far as the roll.

[1:18:04] Yes.

[1:18:05] Yes.

[1:18:06] Thank you, Board.

[1:18:07] Thank you.

[1:18:08] Thank you.

[1:18:08] The facility service fit Colin, a proven authorized chair to sign an agreement between

[1:18:13] the Plymouth County facility services and Baker supplies and repairs for the

[1:18:17] fixed asset purchase of a grasshopper motor total not to exceed $25,999.98.

[1:18:24] That's, then we'll fund impact as approved in the fiscal year, 2425 recommended budget.

[1:18:30] 20, one, two, zero, five, four, slash, five, four, four, six, three, zero.

[1:18:36] Proved as informed by County Council and a discussion of possible actions, too.

[1:18:41] We'll be a four-pincer, we'll call both.

[1:18:46] This is the replacing throughout the county we have the aging equipment.

[1:18:50] to sell these ads, aging moors, the grasshopper,

[1:18:53] so we have two others, is a multi-use piece of equipment.

[1:18:58] It's not just the moor, it has attachments.

[1:19:01] We already have attachments for this,

[1:19:04] and it's actually, one time, we come to snowglow.

[1:19:07] So that's why we're asked for this particular piece of equipment.

[1:19:11] Questions?

[1:19:12] Comments from anybody in the room.

[1:19:15] Anybody on the line?

[1:19:16] What's the problem?

[1:19:18] It's amazing what a little piece of equipment cost, isn't it?

[1:19:23] It's crazy.

[1:19:24] I mean, this is more than my first house.

[1:19:26] Yeah.

[1:19:27] I mean, it saves the money if you just go over and collect your grass off,

[1:19:31] but it seems.

[1:19:32] And I'm lost.

[1:19:34] I'm trying to get really grass off of it.

[1:19:37] I hope.

[1:19:38] Mofer approval is present.

[1:19:39] I'm going to move.

[1:19:41] Seconded by Jeff Engelsy.

[1:19:44] Well, Carl, please.

[1:19:44] The signs are all.

[1:19:45] Yes.

[1:19:46] That's what we're going.

[1:19:47] And so, it's all over.

[1:19:48] Yeah, it's all over the angle.

[1:19:50] Yes.

[1:19:50] It's all over the ground.

[1:19:50] Yes.

[1:19:51] All right.

[1:19:52] Human resources, Joshua, was Rahe, that Dr. Resolution adopting revisions to the behavioral health

[1:19:58] therapist, one behavioral health therapist, two senior behavioral behavioral health therapists.

[1:20:05] The behavioral health community care coordinator job classifications have proved as

[1:20:10] performed by a county council discussion and possible action that too will be a real

[1:20:14] called vote.

[1:20:15] more in public. We're updating these top descriptions to bring them in with state guidelines for

[1:20:24] eligibility for these type of positions. Let's just only change for making right now.

[1:20:30] Any comments regarding the room, comments from Fusheron and all?

[1:20:37] We need this. The depth of subscriptions are very, very outdated to the continuing care

[1:20:44] coordinator was written for when we had Sarah House of Ben and that's been closest

[1:20:50] 2018. So we're out of compliance, so we need to get job descriptions to where they need to be

[1:20:59] both to stay in federal.

[1:21:02] Yeah, any comments here in the room, any comments on the Zoom?

[1:21:06] No comments on Zoom.

[1:21:08] Back to the board.

[1:21:09] How much of you through?

[1:21:11] Very little moved.

[1:21:13] Me and me, how old second?

[1:21:16] Uh, roll puppets.

[1:21:17] See if I was an angle.

[1:21:18] Sorry, sorry, sorry.

[1:21:19] Yes.

[1:21:20] All right, thank you all.

[1:21:26] Item G, solid waste.

[1:21:28] Sean Graham,

[1:21:29] We're going to hold a public hearing.

[1:21:31] The job resolution, establishing a revised FISCA

[1:21:35] to hold for residential and commercial customers,

[1:21:38] so-halling greenways to the Chester Greenways program

[1:21:41] located at Chester Landville.

[1:21:43] No general fund impact to prove to ask to form

[1:21:46] by county council meetings and possible action.

[1:21:49] Good morning.

[1:21:50] Good morning.

[1:21:50] Thank you, Supervisors.

[1:21:52] So yeah, this resolution comes as the result of

[1:21:57] The next studies that were performed by

[1:22:00] from this kind of public works personnel

[1:22:01] finding that over the past several years,

[1:22:05] the cost associated with the Green Waste Program,

[1:22:08] specifically that is the program

[1:22:11] that's run out of the Chester landfill,

[1:22:12] where folks can then bring their Green Waste

[1:22:14] for reduced rates relative to what they would be paying

[1:22:18] at the transfer station.

[1:22:21] The fees collected at this program was not enough to cover

[1:22:26] The cost associated with this program, which mainly

[1:22:32] We have to pay our road crew guys to go out there to manage the pile, push it about, burn it at the end of the season before winter, and then ultimately dispose of this.

[1:22:44] But I believe this is not as a result of a request from waste management or anything like that.

[1:22:50] Waste management, they have an enumerated fee and MOU that dictates how much their attendant gets paid.

[1:22:58] So again, this is a result of public works realizing that the fees as stated several years back,

[1:23:05] the $5 per cubic yard was not sufficient, and that $7 could be a yard would be needed.

[1:23:10] I also did want to note, however, that the folks at Waste Management, mainly Lisa Lester,

[1:23:18] the regional root manager, has been doing a great job of bringing some efficiency.

[1:23:25] So we've actually brought that class down over the past couple of years.

[1:23:28] It would have been greater than $7 to cubic yard, but due to largely her and the attendance

[1:23:34] it's great efforts at the excringent with load checking.

[1:23:39] We've been able to make the program more efficient.

[1:23:42] We're also exploring other options with the air current burner that we've gotten

[1:23:47] on loan from Cal Fire to explore other basically programs that will hopefully be more accessible

[1:23:54] and cheaper for residents.

[1:23:57] But as of right now, this is necessary to make the program solve it.

[1:24:01] Okay, I'm gonna go ahead and open the public here and we'll take any public comment in regards to this topic

[1:24:08] So the question is the

[1:24:10] Readaways that spot there's an even composted or does it all get burnt or that that all gets burnt so the thing is

[1:24:19] And like I'm this is like that we are kind of exploring

[1:24:24] In parallel with running this but in in order for things to get like rolled to a console said

[1:24:30] There has to be a high degree, like source separated right of the different types of green wells because they'll have you'll have a different

[1:24:41] Appropriate like pen path or say pine needles as you will for bark as you will from

[1:24:47] You know, just mainly needs and stuff.

[1:24:50] And so what this program is meant to do is to give it outlets for folks in that region to basically just get their their their yards fire safe

[1:24:59] as people as possible, right?

[1:25:02] But we are exploring ways that we can bring them

[1:25:06] the costs of green waste disposal for the county down,

[1:25:09] but that will ultimately probably

[1:25:10] require some degree of participation amongst the citizenry

[1:25:15] and knowing, okay, well, we can maybe call some stuff,

[1:25:19] but not a fair spike.

[1:25:20] If you looked into what gasifiers that they see by O'Char,

[1:25:26] essentially burns it, but it allows you to save

[1:25:29] the left over charcoal to make bulge of compost?

[1:25:33] Yeah, and the longest sort of it is, yes, we also work

[1:25:39] closely with the waste haulers that you

[1:25:41] start probably counting in about this household.

[1:25:44] They also are kind of in talks with various groups.

[1:25:50] I think they're looking to if they have not already

[1:25:53] changed their green waste program into a nonprofit,

[1:25:56] it so that they can start to receive grant money and hopefully bring that cost out.

[1:26:01] But along the short of it, we are exploring these different options.

[1:26:08] I can add to that to the current environment for disposing of fuels and bringing waste

[1:26:18] is overwhelmed. The companies that can convert it to energy are being hampered by contracts

[1:26:28] with the transmission side of the equation, but everybody wants to get rid of their waste.

[1:26:35] And so there's a huge plot of green waste products fuel out of the forest, et cetera.

[1:26:43] There's companies that have been implementing some successes, but for every one that they have done, there's probably 10 or 20 more opportunities out there.

[1:26:59] So we haven't made that transition from oil to forest fuels.

[1:27:06] Yeah, that's a great point.

[1:27:08] And like I said, I think the broader thing to understand here

[1:27:10] is that all of these different disposal pathways

[1:27:15] look different for different types of greenways.

[1:27:18] And I think there are a lot of understandably

[1:27:20] so it's a bit of a habit to just think,

[1:27:22] OK, well, you know, we just take all the greenways

[1:27:24] and turn it in a moment.

[1:27:26] And it's like, well, yeah, it's much more complicated than that.

[1:27:29] And all you have to do is go out and look at it,

[1:27:32] the debris that goes into these green waste facilities, it ranges unbelievably from old timber

[1:27:41] and tear downs and things are hidden in there.

[1:27:44] People don't care, they think it's a dump and it does have to be separated in order

[1:27:49] to be processed.

[1:27:51] So, the challenge.

[1:27:54] And so, the first day of the Green Waste Program at Chester will be this Friday.

[1:28:00] And so it'll about be every week, Friday and Saturday.

[1:28:05] Really?

[1:28:06] It's not incredibly long.

[1:28:08] Just probably put it too late.

[1:28:09] If I want to point out,

[1:28:12] Plastic Council has a chimney program

[1:28:18] where if they don't take any of those,

[1:28:20] they're playing songs,

[1:28:21] and they take connections and stuff

[1:28:23] that you bring to me to think the top

[1:28:26] where you want to fire,

[1:28:27] and if that's a fascinating thing.

[1:28:30] Good. Good point. Any other public comment regards to this? How about public comment on Zoom?

[1:28:36] No comment on Zoom. All right, we'll go ahead and close the public theory. Bring it back to the board.

[1:28:42] The comments from the board members.

[1:28:44] We brought this up to solve waste task for feeding and everybody was in the greener.

[1:28:49] We should do this.

[1:28:50] And it will just break even. I mean, we're not making any money.

[1:28:54] I'd like to make a motion. We approve one and two.

[1:28:57] We read item two then. Proven authorized chair to sign amendment number one to green waste MOU

[1:29:04] between Climus County Public Works and feather river disposal allowing for green waste

[1:29:09] fees at the Chester Green waste program to be set by the Board of Supervisor resolution

[1:29:14] no general fund impact proved as to form by County Council discussion and possible action.

[1:29:19] Any public comment on that one? It's just the second part of this.

[1:29:24] Jeff has a motion on the floor. I'm going to go ahead and second with thanks to staff for

[1:29:34] continually working in public works and Anne and Solid, we talked about it to find ways to

[1:29:39] keep our community safe at the best price that we can afford while covering our process government.

[1:29:45] So thank you for joining us.

[1:29:47] Thank you.

[1:29:48] Cool.

[1:29:48] Thank you.

[1:29:50] Yes.

[1:29:50] So forward.

[1:29:52] Yes.

[1:29:52] We're down.

[1:29:53] Yes.

[1:29:54] All right.

[1:29:56] We're going to take you.

[1:29:58] No.

[1:29:58] I think it asks.

[1:30:00] It says, on the resolution, we did not receive any written protests. I think there was a space where, in a moment, that's for that.

[1:30:06] Okay, we're going to take a five minute bathroom break and take up the rest of our genius agenda starting with 4A.

[1:30:38] All right, back, take up item 4A, board under the Board of Supervisors, stop resolution establishing principles and priorities for the expenditure of County of Plumas 2021 Dixie fire settlement funds received from PG&E.

[1:30:51] approved as to form by county council discussion, possible action, possible direction to staff,

[1:30:57] and that will require a roll call book. We'll start up here with a common introduction to the topic,

[1:31:02] and then you guys have been handed out a new resolution or updated resolution. So you can have that.

[1:31:11] Got enough copies up here. Mimi, go ahead. Once you pick it up. Thank you. So the recommendation

[1:31:18] before the board today is to, as always, keep up with comment on the proposed principles and

[1:31:24] priorities within the resolution, adopt it.

[1:31:29] Sure, I'll try.

[1:31:30] Adopt.

[1:31:37] Maybe the darkness will make my voice carry.

[1:31:40] I don't know.

[1:31:42] Or I'll have people concentrate more.

[1:31:45] The second recommendation is to adopt the resolution that's before you all today.

[1:31:50] And then number three is direct staff to plan a public workshop in Indian Valley to be helped,

[1:31:56] no later than June 6, 2025. And Jessica, some background on this on April 15, Supervisor

[1:32:03] Goss and I provided the board with a set of recommendations on principles and priorities for

[1:32:11] the expenditure of the Dixie fire settlement funds. As part of that presentation, some guidelines

[1:32:17] and definitions were provided in terms of the legal and ethical purpose and intent of those funds,

[1:32:24] as well as an information providing background on other funds that are not coming funds.

[1:32:30] So the district attorneys, $17 million that was distributed to community entities, housing dollars.

[1:32:38] Those are all separate in the open discussion at the Ford at that time and today is specifically

[1:32:44] about county dollars and even more specifically the Dixie fire settlement funds. So on April 15th,

[1:32:53] the board received those recommendations and provided direction for the chair and the vice chair

[1:32:58] so supervisor boss and myself to meet in an ad hoc committee consisting of the board chair,

[1:33:05] vice chair county council and principal department heads. So we did that, but first what we did

[1:33:11] is there is a group that focuses primarily on public infrastructure, housing,

[1:33:19] of the key entities, the key public and nonprofit entities that are working on rebuilding the

[1:33:24] free bill. And we meet the last Friday of every month. So as soon as the board meeting was over,

[1:33:30] I asked for this to be in a gender topic during our last Friday meeting and provided the information

[1:33:37] to those for such a representative summer of whom are here, of the Indian Valley

[1:33:43] recreation and park district, the Fixie Fire Collaborative, Indian Valley Community Services

[1:33:48] District, and the Tunis Housing Council. So we met with myself, those entities met with

[1:33:57] Tracy Ferguson, our planning director, with myself and Cher Gauss, and what we really did was we

[1:34:04] went through the recommendations.

[1:34:07] So you'll see if you look back at the April 15th board meeting.

[1:34:11] I know that's on a son article that came out yesterday

[1:34:13] said, we changed our principles and priorities.

[1:34:16] So we didn't change them.

[1:34:18] What we actually did was had a really robust discussion

[1:34:20] about the work that had already been done for planning.

[1:34:24] And some of the highlights that came out of that discussion

[1:34:27] were to consolidate or make the priorities and principles

[1:34:32] more concise. And then also to the original recommendations that fix the fire impacted communities

[1:34:43] and people seem to glaze over that or not even think those words existed. So we decided it's

[1:34:49] important to name what those communities are. So we named the communities to prevent further misinformation

[1:34:55] and rumors spreading.

[1:34:59] So what we're again what we're talking about today are because we are

[1:35:03] the county and we're responsible for public infrastructure and public services isn't the

[1:35:09] dollars out there, you know, private insurance settlements, other dollars given to other

[1:35:14] groups, it's really the county's dollars to rebuild public infrastructure in the Dixie fire

[1:35:20] affected communities. And so just for background, there are two types of funds that the public

[1:35:26] that the county has for those purposes. One is our insurance payout for our insurance company,

[1:35:32] Tindell. And so that insurance payout has various specific rules and intents that go with it.

[1:35:40] And you'll read in the staff memo and thank you to planning director Tracy Ferguson for

[1:35:45] sort of kind of moving the staff member through and helping to get it finished, that those

[1:35:52] trindone insurance funds are for specific losses. So our covered losses, so our covered

[1:35:58] losses were the share substation, the library, the town hall, and then various other, you

[1:36:05] know, county property and the contents of those buildings that were lost. One aside of that insurance

[1:36:12] payout is that the share of station is not whole, it's not 100% the counties. So the courts have a partnership with us and they see their 60% or 62% the county auditors here.

[1:36:28] She can correct me, but we need to provide a 60% payout of the value that building to the state court system.

[1:36:35] So, all that being said is what we know is that the insurance settlements that we receive for our

[1:36:40] carbon losses is not going to be adequate to rebuild the infrastructure that was lost and the

[1:36:48] services that need to be provided to Indian Valley out of the out of the facilities that were lost.

[1:36:56] So, moving along to the Dixiefire settlement funds, the Dixiefire settlement funds, they were

[1:37:03] mediated funds, and they had terms to settlement.

[1:37:07] And some of those terms recognize that public agencies,

[1:37:12] including counties, substantial farm due

[1:37:17] to PG&E's actions.

[1:37:19] And so, accordingly, the use of those funds

[1:37:21] were to reasonably relate to the damages

[1:37:24] suffered by the county organization.

[1:37:27] This is kind of like the ant-epa.

[1:37:30] A compliment to the district attorneys, settlement of $17 million that went to the school district foundation, $1 million to fire safe council, for the expired collaborative, in that settlement, it was noted that none of those funds could be given or spent by a public entity.

[1:37:52] So those were community funds for community organizations for economic development, outside of the county organization.

[1:38:01] The reason that was separate is because the county had its own separate PG&E settlement for its uncovered losses.

[1:38:08] So those are the two pots of money that the county has available to restore and rebuild our communities intact by the Dixie fire, which we have named

[1:38:19] because it was a problem to not actually name the communities.

[1:38:26] So moving along, the principles and priorities on April 15, we presented five principles.

[1:38:35] And those five principles were to restore the county's stability and capacity,

[1:38:40] avoid duplication of funding, value readiness, optimize and leverage funds,

[1:38:45] and ensure transparency and accountability.

[1:38:47] So when the leadership group of rebuilding met, and the last Friday in April, we went through all of these and tried to combine the ones that were related.

[1:38:58] So from the April 15th, the draft principles presented to the board, we combined hers, our partner suggestions.

[1:39:07] principles number two and four, which were avoid duplication of funding and

[1:39:12] optimize and leverage funds because both of those things were about making the

[1:39:16] best use of money. So that reduced from one to four. And then what we did, again,

[1:39:26] based on discussion and everything was combined number three and five. So number three

[1:39:34] is value readiness.

[1:39:36] I mean, I don't want to just throw many away at things that we don't know how the specific outcome

[1:39:41] that aren't going to result in a tangible result, and then ensure transparency and accountability.

[1:39:47] I have a talked about this in open meetings, but part of that transparency and accountability

[1:39:52] is that the expenditure of these funds should be open to the public.

[1:39:57] And so one of the ideas I had brought up to Chairman Gos was if there was a significant amount of money

[1:40:03] that went somewhere beside the structures, it should be brown active. We should ask those entities

[1:40:09] to provide the financial information and they're also talking about working with the DAs office

[1:40:15] in the $17 million distribution and other entities that have distributed money. So we

[1:40:19] can have a big picture of where dollars came from, what sectors of the community that they helped,

[1:40:28] and how people have a better idea of what dollars are available.

[1:40:32] Part of the reason I took this on, and Kevin Moses, one of the reasons I ran for Supervisor

[1:40:38] is, I wanted to be able to help move along the rebuilding of Greenville in the surrounding

[1:40:43] areas. And there were numerous board items, more than a half dozen board items that I had

[1:40:49] seen before that just got stalled and stalled and stalled because people are unhappy, people

[1:40:55] And it's like, we need to rebuild our communities.

[1:40:59] So that's the reasoning behind doing this.

[1:41:04] We knew that our 25, 26 budget process was coming up.

[1:41:07] We're having new budget as of July 1.

[1:41:10] And some spending needs to happen to rebuild

[1:41:12] the county's public infrastructure losses.

[1:41:15] That in turn is going to serve the community.

[1:41:17] So moving along to the priorities, what changed from the first meeting.

[1:41:21] So the first meeting there were four priorities,

[1:41:23] restore county losses in service capacity, invest in county infrastructure and capital means,

[1:41:29] support city infrastructure in the communities impacted most impacted by the Dixie fire

[1:41:34] and support housing recovery and development in communities most impacted by the Dixie fire.

[1:41:41] Again, we consolidated these. So we now have come away with the three priorities that you have in front of

[1:41:48] And actually, I wanted to talk to item number two, invest in county infrastructure and capital needs.

[1:41:56] So from April 15th, what I'm going from what was to what is now.

[1:42:03] So what we have now are three priorities that you are reading.

[1:42:07] The priority that was left out are kind of combined was invest in county infrastructure.

[1:42:13] And I want to talk about this because there's been a lot of rumors about that.

[1:42:18] So during the April 15th board meeting,

[1:42:21] when I talked about investing in Xiaomi infrastructure,

[1:42:24] the idea was we wanted to use these funds in a manner

[1:42:29] that has a lasting impact.

[1:42:32] And I brought up at the three hour, 26 minutes

[1:42:36] and 50 seconds mark of the April 15th meeting.

[1:42:41] When I said invest in county infrastructure

[1:42:44] that the fairgrounds were just used as an example.

[1:42:47] Here's the example.

[1:42:49] I don't mean to say that anybody is going to a certain place.

[1:42:52] I just use the background as an example.

[1:42:56] And the reason I use that example is because the background serves

[1:43:00] as fire camp often when we do have disasters or other disasters.

[1:43:04] It's also the only large county facility for large animal evacuations.

[1:43:10] It is a resource in terms of disaster.

[1:43:13] It's also a resource in terms of not disaster.

[1:43:17] that got turned into some kind of rural legend that we're going to do, you know,

[1:43:24] spruce up the fairgrounds and I don't know what, but there was a reasoning behind that,

[1:43:28] and it was thinking of what makes the county more resilient and more prepared for future

[1:43:33] disaster. So the three priorities that you have in front of you today for consideration,

[1:43:40] and remove that second bullet from the first priority.

[1:43:45] So now we have three priorities that are part of the resolution,

[1:43:49] because really investing in infrastructure is part of recovery and rebuilding.

[1:43:56] So you only see three bullets under priorities.

[1:43:59] And instead of saying Dixie fire impacted communities, we've named them.

[1:44:04] So there's no question as to what kinds of communities that we're talking about.

[1:44:08] And we went to what was referred to, and many, many assessments and reports, which were Greenville, King and Dan, Indian Falls and Warner Valley.

[1:44:17] What we don't want to do is dilute the dollars, because it's not even clear how far these dollars will go to accomplish rebuilding.

[1:44:27] So, that's where we have landed, it's been a really great collaborative process of

[1:44:35] folks who have been doing a lot of on-the-ground work in planning, in development, in projects

[1:44:43] that some that are going to break ground really, really soon to restore public safety services.

[1:44:50] I think this lines out are primary goals and appreciate the work of all of the departments.

[1:45:00] And council and the community organizations and public entities that partnered in helping us define this.

[1:45:10] The last thing I'll say is, we're not talking about how much money is going where.

[1:45:15] That is for the budget process and that's for the public workshop that we would like to have scheduled by June 6.

[1:45:21] The reason for that date is we would like input from the public before our budget is passed.

[1:45:27] And so today's conversation is not about dollars and cents and who's going to get what money and who's going to ask for what it is not about evaluating proposals for funding. We haven't accepted any proposals. But part of what we're doing is.

[1:45:45] We had, even before I came on the board, I watched this board

[1:45:51] entertain many requests for funding.

[1:45:53] When there's a big cut of money sitting out there, people

[1:45:56] like to utilize it.

[1:45:58] For lots of different purposes, and the purpose of these

[1:46:02] principles and priorities is to assure that the

[1:46:05] purposes meet the intent of these dollars, which are to

[1:46:09] restore public infrastructure, development, all of the things

[1:46:13] that have to go to read, building the communities

[1:46:15] that are severely impacted in the Dixie fire,

[1:46:19] which is free and built, handing down Indian laws

[1:46:21] and more about it.

[1:46:22] So that's the staff report.

[1:46:24] And thank you to the folks who participated in this.

[1:46:26] Can I see, did you want to add the pink to that?

[1:46:29] No, trust me.

[1:46:30] Okay, can I?

[1:46:32] I'm excited.

[1:46:33] Maybe you might follow up on it, sir.

[1:46:34] Sure.

[1:46:35] I guess we'll go ahead and start with public comment.

[1:46:37] Let me take a call around Zoom.

[1:46:38] I have one on Zoom, and then we'll go to the product.

[1:46:43] Go ahead and call around Zoom.

[1:46:50] Hello.

[1:46:53] Can you hear me?

[1:46:54] Very are, yeah. Go ahead.

[1:46:57] All right. Good afternoon. This resolution must be pulled from the agenda immediately.

[1:47:02] I am calling for supervisor Kevin Goss to recuse himself and for this board to stop moving forward

[1:47:07] with a project to direct public disaster fund and to privately owned land controlled by elected officials and a close associate.

[1:47:15] Let's be clear, the Greenville Town Center and Community Resolient Center Project is being built on private land, not on land owned by the county, not on public parcels, but on the property, all by supervisor God, his girlfriend and her financed associate Tyler Peel.

[1:47:32] His girlfriend's own two corners, God's own one, her borough or Tyler Peel financed through 89 main LLC owns the fourth.

[1:47:41] This resolution provides no personal members, no disclosure or ownership, no leases, and no guarantee

[1:47:47] a public control.

[1:47:48] Yet, your own memo confirms that public facilities like the town hall and library will

[1:47:54] be rebuilt as part of this town center concept in partnership with other entities.

[1:47:58] That's a carefully-warning event in the public funds on land that the public doesn't own.

[1:48:04] That violates government 1.09 out which prohibits officials from participating in contracts

[1:48:08] where they have a financial interest, including

[1:48:10] at co-enhabitants and relationship interests.

[1:48:16] Government code 871 is zero-requiring

[1:48:18] refusal from decisions with foreseeable financial benefit.

[1:48:21] California Constitution Article 6,

[1:48:23] Subsection 6 would borrow the gifting of public funds to private parties,

[1:48:27] and it also violates penal code 424 misuse of public funds.

[1:48:31] This is a recovery of private redevelopment subsidized by disaster funds,

[1:48:35] the public council right to know who owns the land you're building on,

[1:48:38] profit-friendly improvement, and why hasn't you provide the voucher to choose to

[1:48:42] consult?

[1:48:43] Why is it provides the voucher making those solutions that directly benefit

[1:48:46] himself and is associated?

[1:48:48] Case where I want to look at the substance and financial relationships, not just the formal

[1:48:53] relationship statuses.

[1:48:56] This is not county and this is not transparent and this is not legal.

[1:48:59] I am demanding immediate re-cusal to provide the voucher, gosh, the myths, and all related

[1:49:03] items for which all of the resolution and call ownership records, legal agreements, and personal

[1:49:07] level of detail are disclosed, is it in legal attention

[1:49:11] from county council evaluating compliance

[1:49:13] with conflict to interest in public finance laws?

[1:49:16] Referral of this matter to the FPPC and attorney general

[1:49:19] for further review.

[1:49:21] The public deserves answers before another cent of disaster

[1:49:23] recovery money is spent enriching private and donors

[1:49:26] and do actually increase in the value of his own

[1:49:29] and his associates property

[1:49:31] and default pretence of public benefit.

[1:49:33] I question the integrity and qualifications

[1:49:35] of County Council for a proving disresolution, and finally, I'll leave the board with one

[1:49:40] simple question, who out the track or trailer park and I'll answer that.

[1:49:44] Kevin Godz who's girlfriend.

[1:49:46] Thank you.

[1:49:49] Thank you.

[1:49:49] The public comment here in the room.

[1:49:50] Go ahead.

[1:49:52] It's a question.

[1:49:55] Excuse me.

[1:49:59] I see nothing has to do with the issue in the talks about where land is going to be purchased,

[1:50:05] what?

[1:50:05] And it's going to be.

[1:50:06] anything like that and make no returners at all in your business because that would be a terrible

[1:50:15] terrible thing because you had it in the last sorts of other countries. There was an article

[1:50:21] in the some news recently that didn't give sources and I took exceptions to the article for the

[1:50:30] not spending money on the airports and the aircrafts.

[1:50:36] We're going to have a kind of a district because it doesn't mean it's going to come in.

[1:50:41] The airport is probably something that is becoming, but it seemed like the airport was maybe

[1:50:47] not quite clear on where the money is going to be spent, because we have the idea as of

[1:50:53] that.

[1:50:54] I don't see where the money is going to be spent under the man or what they should be

[1:51:02] in the area, and in the areas where the pilots are very, very, very serving.

[1:51:08] I have a question for our auditor.

[1:51:11] Some of the bodies have already been

[1:51:18] spent by government organizations

[1:51:22] between, except that we have to be paid,

[1:51:25] except that we have to be paid, except that we have to be paid.

[1:51:28] So right now, we are not closed.

[1:51:33] with feedback. Because we have four projects that are outstanding, and we wanted to

[1:51:39] those projects have not even started at this minute. Risk management department is working

[1:51:48] on tracking the projects in our FEMA portal along with public works, because so that this

[1:51:54] pertains to roads and sidewalks that are in the area and so that that work has not begun yet

[1:52:00] because of the PG&E underground activity that would be going on and so they will not start those

[1:52:08] road projects on the county roads. I believe until after those projects are finished so they will get

[1:52:17] So right now we have,

[1:52:20] we have about $109,000,

[1:52:23] $451,

[1:52:24] we have more

[1:52:27] about $109,000.

[1:52:29] And our people.

[1:52:30] Now, it's two million 285,456 dollars. Those are multiple projects. Some of those projects, we don't know if they will go over the dollar

[1:52:42] amount, that was done here, but it's worth the amount. If that happens, then we would have to use additional money out of our

[1:52:49] Virginia settlement money to click those projects. Like I said, we are not closed in the view of the portal,

[1:52:56] because we have open projects and they are not familiar with it, but they are being trapped by

[1:53:01] philanthropic works and risk damage. So the public ask them to stand up. So unfortunately,

[1:53:07] this money is already gone. But yeah, pay it back. That that is correct, but the 7.8 million is

[1:53:15] the amount that is. So the money for calorie yes and BMI had been restricted out of the amount

[1:53:24] received. So we have a box of these seven pathways.

[1:53:30] Correct.

[1:53:33] And we have no idea how much of the things are going to cost us at this time.

[1:53:38] But all this revolution says, you know, where the money we're going to spend off,

[1:53:43] they have a spend on the appropriate areas.

[1:53:48] That's correct.

[1:53:49] I do have one other for me.

[1:53:52] So I think it's very important to educate everybody in the country.

[1:53:56] public in the first of our areas on what derived the amounts that we received for our

[1:54:02] settlement. And I don't just kind of hit on a couple of those. What is our timber receipts?

[1:54:09] And in fact, in 2020, the allocation and everything you see from the state for timber receipts

[1:54:16] was $631,000 approximately. Last year, we received $348,000.

[1:54:24] Well, those receipt temporary receipts,

[1:54:27] money that we received from the state,

[1:54:29] those are allocated, not just to the county.

[1:54:33] So the money that comes in for our temporary receipts

[1:54:36] goes to are the part to the county,

[1:54:39] part to roads, part to bear, airport,

[1:54:43] along with all of our cemetery districts,

[1:54:47] the fire districts, and education,

[1:54:50] and our hospital districts.

[1:54:52] So all of those entities that serve the public, we'll see a significant decrease, you know,

[1:54:59] due to the fire because of all the federal lands that were destroyed and we're not seeing the

[1:55:06] timber come up with those areas.

[1:55:11] There's a lot of not so much work to do.

[1:55:13] on it.

[1:55:14] The particular result, what you can show by it, and some of you expect to be a client,

[1:55:21] almost, etc.

[1:55:24] We built a share of some space, we built a library, we built up how complicated it is actually.

[1:55:29] And reimbursed county, organizational bosses.

[1:55:32] Did somebody speak to an organizational office?

[1:55:35] Speak to them?

[1:55:36] It's a, I'm already tensed well.

[1:55:38] Okay.

[1:55:38] Well, I can kick it up, and then you can clarify.

[1:55:40] there were specific organizational losses and some of them weren't county general fund losses and I guess Marty has the list.

[1:55:53] So, when the loss, the county worked the key at 30s, for the PV&E settlement, some of the things that were taken in the consideration were wages and overtime that were directly due to the DC fire.

[1:56:10] And so those amounts were $108,585 just for regular wages, along with overtime wages that were associated just to the fire, those were $359,229.

[1:56:27] That is the amount that the county had to pay, above and beyond the normal, everyone's doing their normal jobs.

[1:56:35] So the people that were taken away from doing their normal jobs, due to the fire, that was all tracked.

[1:56:42] And it was tracked with a different code through time cards and payroll.

[1:56:47] So we knew what we were spending on the fire.

[1:56:51] Along with, you know, we had to do kind of a assumption of how much we received and timber receipts.

[1:57:01] So we can see the decline and as you can see, we're starting to see significant decline from where we were in 2020 to where we were in 2024.

[1:57:12] And like I said, that does not come directly out to the county that is to support your fire, your Cemetery's education hospitals in all of Plymouth County.

[1:57:23] So those are the main things that came about, we also had people previous to myself, went into a contract with our leaders for fire-related things for, you know, collecting insurance funds, looking for different grants, helping the county, and at the end, that contract cost the county over $600,000.

[1:57:52] So, these are things that the county had to send due to the fixifier.

[1:57:59] You know, we haven't, everyone wants to talk about, you know, we're going to spend the money, we have insurance money, we have settlement money,

[1:58:06] and then two separate pop-up money, and our insurance money will need to go to reimburse, you know, the library, the association,

[1:58:18] we have public health, we have behavioral health,

[1:58:21] So, those funds will go back to reimburse those county departments that received losses during the Bixie fire.

[1:58:31] As we rebuild the library or the town hall, then that money can be used to rebuild those structures and provide those services in the communities that were affected.

[1:58:44] So,

[1:58:47] for me, I provided clarification.

[1:58:50] I wanted to thank Mr. Foster for bringing up the airports.

[1:58:54] I think the confusion happened because we're talking about the item.

[1:58:59] And then during public comment, we had department heads provide public comment.

[1:59:03] And it was around, it wasn't part of the forward recommendations.

[1:59:07] But when you, I guess when you read in the newspaper that someone who works with the county

[1:59:11] provided a comment like the airport comment, it, you know,

[1:59:15] There wasn't, it wasn't distinguished from the actual board item or the recommendations and then I guess people didn't actually check the board item and saw what was in it, so then it just kind of, it turned into something different.

[1:59:29] So I mean, first of all, I'm glad to see so many people here today who really care about their community and I think want to see your communities we built, I think it's important for you to come out.

[1:59:40] And show your support or your lack of support and give feedback and that's what we hope that the public workshop will provide more of, you know, later this spring, early summer before June 6th.

[1:59:55] The other clarification I want to make is that there is a piece in

[2:00:00] The resolution or the fact that that says non-county owned facilities. By non-county owned, we still

[2:00:08] mean facilities that serve the public. But there's a park district, there's a community services

[2:00:14] district, there are other public entities that are not the county, but it did not receive settlement

[2:00:18] dollars. Board boarded, I mean, I believe Indian family community services district was not a part

[2:00:27] any of these settlements. And outside of like the district attorney settlement of $17 million,

[2:00:34] all they received was the same $45,000 or $50,000 at every other buyer district received.

[2:00:41] But they were the entity like clearly, the public entity, clearly highly impacted. So that phrase

[2:00:49] isn't meant to say we're buying up private property. It means non-county owns public or non-profit

[2:00:57] property and by non-profit there are a lot of non-profits who are doing the things and who are

[2:01:03] partnering in public and private partnerships with government so that government dollars can go further

[2:01:09] and their dollars can go further. So that's what we mean by non-county owned public or civic

[2:01:16] infrastructure by non-county public or non-profit entities. It's not about private property.

[2:01:26] It's

[2:01:27] money that we can combine and collaborate on potentially and make go further.

[2:01:33] And the last comment on make is about the town center and the public safety center.

[2:01:38] Those are unknowns for us.

[2:01:39] So there is a piece of this that says whether it's standalone.

[2:01:44] We need to rebuild a share substation and a light.

[2:01:46] We need these services that the county provides.

[2:01:48] Whether or not they're part of something bigger.

[2:01:52] It needs to happen.

[2:01:52] And so that is what this resolution is saying is that we lost these county buildings and the services that went with them.

[2:02:01] And we want them back and we received dollars to build them back.

[2:02:05] So we can't control other projects.

[2:02:08] So it's those other projects don't move ahead.

[2:02:10] You know, we, we need to keep our own commitment to our community.

[2:02:14] So that's my third clarification.

[2:02:16] Sure.

[2:02:17] Okay. Other public comment. Go ahead.

[2:02:20] Laura Burns Taylor's bill. Thank you for bringing that this is nice here. It's been

[2:02:28] I've been waiting a long kind of here or something like this, but just to air and it's kind of like a family and Indian

[2:02:36] valley and it's hard to hear your family business like being aired out, right? Like the caller,

[2:02:43] But I don't disagree with a lot of what she said is disturbing as that is. I think that we need to be really really honest that the people who live in Indian Valley have been watching a lot of people don't live in Indian Valley get a lot of money and get paid a lot for

[2:03:04] not having buildings built, and moving forward, if you are starting another workshop, please don't hire somebody else to come and take our pulse and take our feelings and put boosted notes up on things.

[2:03:24] Don't pay somebody to do that, please, because we have gone through that so much thinking that when we put our post

[2:03:32] It's going to be something and here we are starting from scratch again, so please don't send money on our feelings.

[2:03:43] spend money on solutions. Listen to the people who need them in the

[2:03:50] in Valley and in Indian Falls and in Warner Valley and in Canyon Dam

[2:03:55] listen to the people who live there. Not the people who want to make lots of money

[2:04:00] because of all these nonprofits and all these dudehooders and all these multiple

[2:04:05] letter organizations. They're going to bleed it all out. They really are. They're

[2:04:12] Good at it. They've done it before. They know what they're doing and we are going to be left with nothing.

[2:04:19] So please, I bet you don't pay anybody to take our take a poll. Listen to us.

[2:04:26] We can communicate with you if you let us thank you.

[2:04:33] Good.

[2:04:36] Thank you for saying that.

[2:04:39] As someone that has been deeply involved in the planning work since the beginning,

[2:04:42] I want to see action. This is what it is. For some context really quickly, in all the research that I did,

[2:04:52] but the best community, the fastest recovery that included library and community services,

[2:04:59] some housing stock and stuff for seven years, seven years, right for being happy.

[2:05:05] And so luckily we have a critical community members that are an unfortunate position both through the insurance

[2:05:12] and continue to use out on us to build homes,

[2:05:14] starting with things to work.

[2:05:16] What we have done over the last three half years

[2:05:18] is taking 150 projects, narrowing down the 56 projects,

[2:05:24] narrowing the host down to the lake.

[2:05:26] I think we're at 23 right now, critical projects.

[2:05:29] So we've made many, many, many conversations with people.

[2:05:34] And so at this point, I'd like to finish first, please thank you.

[2:05:38] Yes, of course.

[2:05:39] At this point,

[2:05:43] And so we don't want to start at a planning stage again, but if there's critiques on those

[2:05:48] projects or where they should exist in a town, things like that, that should be a continual

[2:05:54] conversation with me until they're identified and executed because they have to go through

[2:05:59] an engineering phase and then an implementation phase actually construct buildings.

[2:06:04] And so I think every moment we can meet a member for coming and showing out today and making

[2:06:09] our voice heard to the board that has one piece, one funding piece that needs the philanthropic

[2:06:18] sector, it needs the public sector, it needs the private sector all working together because

[2:06:21] it's not enough money needs to do what we want at any of the day. So we need to layer those funds

[2:06:28] really smartly so that we can execute the products and rebuild the community that we all love very

[2:06:34] Thank you.

[2:06:35] Thank you.

[2:06:36] Thank you.

[2:06:37] Sorry.

[2:06:41] I'm going to be volunteer.

[2:06:42] I was active in getting the Dixie Fire Resource Center going.

[2:06:46] When the fire was so all of that is.

[2:06:49] The group that I was working with.

[2:06:51] I saw there was a new one.

[2:06:53] It was the disaster.

[2:06:53] So I was stepping back in.

[2:06:55] There were people camping in the woods.

[2:06:58] We had over 100 volunteers.

[2:06:59] We had hundreds of donors.

[2:07:02] Major's corporations giving.

[2:07:06] And we kind of thought moved out.

[2:07:10] I asked that when the research center

[2:07:12] will under a nonprofit organization

[2:07:14] that we have a community advisory committee

[2:07:18] that has a voice in what's happening

[2:07:21] with all these recovery funds coming into our area.

[2:07:25] And I was told that we would have that.

[2:07:29] And...

[2:07:30] That never happened. So, you're seeing a lot of people that don't have a voice, that there's people that rose to the top, they're good at writing contracts, maybe they're full of bullshit.

[2:07:45] You need to be looking at the community and not the people that are getting paid $215

[2:07:55] now, moving people in from outside with contracts for all their friends. They're not looking

[2:08:03] to spend this funding wisely. They're looking for contracts. And it's very competitive.

[2:08:15] I'm going to write a book about it.

[2:08:18] I'd also like to talk about the ad hoc committee.

[2:08:22] I was here one day, I think it was a year ago,

[2:08:24] and I've been said that he was in talks with Adam Cox,

[2:08:27] the General Manager at IBCSD, and so whoever

[2:08:31] about what to do with all the insurance funds and all the teaching

[2:08:35] settlement funds at the county, what are we going to do with all that?

[2:08:39] I'm in talks with these guys.

[2:08:40] A whole bunch of people had a, they didn't like that it was just three people talking about what to do with all these funds.

[2:08:50] So, we talked to the board about leaving more community members to be involved in support, voted to create an ad hoc committee that included more community members unanimously.

[2:09:03] We go into these ad hoc committee meetings, and none of us could speak.

[2:09:09] It was a supervisor boss, his girlfriend, and Adam Cox saying,

[2:09:14] we've already decided what we're going to do with all these funds.

[2:09:17] Kevin said he's not changing his mind.

[2:09:19] And then the meetings were disbanded.

[2:09:22] And now we have a new ad hoc committee made up of BB Hall supervisor

[2:09:27] of costs, county council, Tracy Ferguson, and a few department heads, how did that happen?

[2:09:34] Well, I'll go ahead and get off that committee.

[2:09:37] I've got plenty of stuff going on right now that I don't need to be honest.

[2:09:40] I want an answer.

[2:09:42] I want an answer about you didn't follow through with the what the Board said to do.

[2:09:47] The Board said to lose me your opportunity.

[2:09:49] We'll go ahead and have that conversation.

[2:09:52] No, we should have it here. Everyone wants to know.

[2:09:54] public comment. That's for one day. Exactly.

[2:10:02] You're the one that told the CNN not so many public meetings that you were there about the posts and everything else.

[2:10:11] I can't imagine you didn't have opportunity to do public input.

[2:10:15] Okay. You want to hear the way public input goes that these community meetings is someone get paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to

[2:10:22] and serving a public to create their vision.

[2:10:25] They put young and great big math of what Greenville looks like.

[2:10:29] Here, take this sticker that says hardware store on it

[2:10:32] and put it where you want the hardware store to go.

[2:10:34] Take this sticker that says the gas system.

[2:10:38] No, no, no.

[2:10:39] That's the thing.

[2:10:40] That's the public input.

[2:10:41] None of the most property owners are going to move their buildings.

[2:10:45] And all he did was check a box for a funder that's given over a million dollars.

[2:10:48] It's going to take another public comment going ahead in the front row.

[2:10:57] This year that meeting year or whenever it was and you made your committee.

[2:11:02] I'm a homeowner. Almost four years ago, I asked, hi, I'm a few.

[2:11:09] What about the homeowner's? I was told we're on our own.

[2:11:15] It created a split and green belt.

[2:11:18] We have the same split today home owners have to live with the hill. I live on Main Street where there is a hill and there is a major water problem.

[2:11:31] Goss has been there, Tracy Ferguson's been there, public works been there and everybody says, we don't know what we're going to do about it.

[2:11:39] I, we also, for some reason, I had to put down all the trees on my property, which cost me about $30,000.

[2:11:50] Because I was next to the Legion. All the rest of the trees, I'm assuming there are the owners.

[2:11:58] They're just falling down like crazy. Nobody's doing anything about it.

[2:12:03] And our sidewalks are crumbled,

[2:12:11] our water company is in chaos.

[2:12:15] Our streets are a mess.

[2:12:19] We get no notification.

[2:12:21] We had a problem with the water that you couldn't drink the water,

[2:12:26] and nobody got notified.

[2:12:28] They put it out on Facebook.

[2:12:29] We have older community members that should have somebody should have had a system to tell them not to drink that water.

[2:12:41] Or at the meetings that we go to if you try to volunteer, they are scripted and they are timed.

[2:12:51] So, you don't get to ask questions, you don't get to have input.

[2:12:56] We're treated as second class citizens because our homes burnt.

[2:13:03] The same four people, we keep not mentioning Sue Weber and she never puts Sue Weber,

[2:13:10] Tyler Puh, Goss and whoever else is on their little committee.

[2:13:17] Are the same people? She just keeps moving from the DFC to the planning committee.

[2:13:22] city. It's been four years, several million dollars have been spent. If you can't do

[2:13:30] anything in four years, you probably can't do anything in four years. And I really

[2:13:35] want Greensal to come back. And my only other comment is, one of the sidewalks coming in

[2:13:44] because PG&E now is done, and they are putting pieces of sidewalk. So you have one nice piece,

[2:13:54] a crumble piece, another nice piece, and I'm sure you know as a county that somebody falls

[2:14:01] down, you're all going to be sued because it's been ignored for four years. Thank you.

[2:14:15] Thank you,

[2:14:18] I thought all the places that are skittin' up today,

[2:14:21] because if you do, you know,

[2:14:22] you got to four years of turmoil, you hear the child.

[2:14:28] Yeah, I was finna, maybe he's now over 50 years.

[2:14:32] This was my retirement spot.

[2:14:34] When I retired, I didn't have a lot.

[2:14:39] It's not the same period.

[2:14:41] After all, half my friends are in doubt.

[2:14:44] I know that's the earliest history.

[2:14:45] and I'm not even victim here, but I am tired of not being clear, not having transparency that should be out there for all to see.

[2:15:00] Number 1, which is the total amount of dollars that came in for our really first year staff, for the very building of our lives.

[2:15:14] Including money that was granted, just under the cost of two days after the fire.

[2:15:20] So, you're going to, human, says, give us our XYZ dollars.

[2:15:25] Please, put it where you think it's fast.

[2:15:27] I'm so sorry that you'll have to do that.

[2:15:30] I mean, we're those, a lot of the rights,

[2:15:31] I don't even know that they, that if you man, that they were collected,

[2:15:35] that they were noted, there's no spreadsheets.

[2:15:38] There's no on-channel.

[2:15:39] Even if there's time, I'm not going to find any that is.

[2:15:43] And they've pushed here, and they're like, how much have you spent so far?

[2:15:47] how much that was donated, how much that info, how much that came from, you know, different

[2:15:55] or online groups or whatnot. I'm saying that is the problem here. Nobody feels like they've been

[2:16:03] in the loop. And I know that's worth it for. I do. You must be under a tremendous amount of stress.

[2:16:09] if I were in your position, I would feel that. So transparency is taking the word that I'm

[2:16:17] happy with, that this collective is as public members. Can you are feeling that they have

[2:16:28] So, thank you.

[2:16:30] I'm glad I saw one.

[2:16:31] I'm back.

[2:16:32] Thank you.

[2:16:35] Great question.

[2:16:37] My higher 15 residents in Greenville,

[2:16:39] didn't you know, working pretty hard.

[2:16:42] Since the fire involved in everything that's going on.

[2:16:46] But thank you for considering this and moving forward with this.

[2:16:50] It's very, very important to set those priorities.

[2:16:53] The other thing that that we're concerned about is

[2:16:57] All the kind of ad hoc, negative comments could serve to derail the collaboration efforts

[2:17:06] that you, the board needs to be involved in.

[2:17:10] No one's like a night's been to come right and open the hill and save us.

[2:17:13] We have to work together, collaborate together, that involves the board, that involves the services to us.

[2:17:20] And no one's kind of stand alone in me if we were fixed this stuff.

[2:17:23] We have a chance to do anything at all, we have to work together, and I would hate to see all the negative comments here.

[2:17:33] Share that apart or somehow affect our ability to get things done and to work together and to collaborate.

[2:17:40] So anyway, in the, in the old days, we just say there are people that get the work done

[2:17:50] and tell people that complain about. If you're complaining, ask yourself, what have I done?

[2:18:00] Because we've been busy for almost four years and we're just now looking at a plan to try and put things

[2:18:07] together, and we hate to see that get derailed by negative comments,

[2:18:15] misinformation,

[2:18:46] and

[2:18:46] There are so many organizations that are pretending to be knowledgeable, they are not non-profits,

[2:18:56] they are not legal organizations, we've got this going to help them.

[2:19:03] The Dipsy Fire Collaborative, that's not an nonprofit, it's not a legal organization.

[2:19:09] Where are they accountable to?

[2:19:13] They shouldn't be there to die.

[2:19:15] They're the first ones.

[2:19:17] This Dixie fire something else.

[2:19:22] Dixie, oh, and this thing will be a native.

[2:19:27] They're not being native, they're being honest.

[2:19:29] Everybody out there had blown smoke up somebody's search.

[2:19:33] It's time to get honest around here.

[2:19:35] You should not be on the committee.

[2:19:38] It's a conflict of interest.

[2:19:39] You should not be on the committee. You're the most junior year. In your bed with the biggest crook this county's ever seen John Kennedy

[2:19:48] And he's being investigated. They should have looped you into a two. You shouldn't be honest and all this collaboration bullshit

[2:19:57] There's no public input

[2:20:01] this whole resolution

[2:20:03] isn't worth the paper to written on

[2:20:06] throw it out

[2:20:09] to have collaboration you start with the public. They're not an end product. They're the beginning.

[2:20:20] You got the cart before the works. You talk about this property. I got news for you. I got proof.

[2:20:29] Right here. I'm not passing out. One piece of property is owned by you. Finance by

[2:20:37] I, is girlfriend. You want a piece. I do want a piece of

[2:20:44] product. You're girlfriend on two pieces in this resolution. That's the

[2:20:50] town hall. No, that's what it says, right. No, that's what it says. I'm not

[2:20:59] going to get in. That's what all the things like, well, I'm sorry. That's what it

[2:21:03] says, well I'm sorry, that's what's printed everywhere. So, you know what you start with?

[2:21:12] Take it like somebody said, how much money do you get? How will you take the $60 million

[2:21:19] and you do a reconciliation? I earn the independent auditor that does friends at the

[2:21:26] out in, pull all this money together, and show where in that.

[2:21:31] How many holes?

[2:21:33] Start from the top.

[2:21:34] Shake it down.

[2:21:35] Who's buying these damn trays?

[2:21:41] This is for the box to go sit in, and this indoor pool.

[2:21:46] So that's not getting it in that.

[2:21:47] I can't get it inside.

[2:21:52] There you come.

[2:21:52] They're coming.

[2:21:53] They're coming.

[2:21:54] They're coming.

[2:21:55] They're coming.

[2:22:01] They're coming.

[2:22:02] to you. And I want this to become part of the product like record too.

[2:22:06] That's true.

[2:22:12] Should be, should be, should be, should be watching these things as counsel.

[2:22:17] I got

[2:22:21] that.

[2:22:21] That was a small excavator. You need to try to fill that big dump truck.

[2:22:25] Sure.

[2:22:30] If you could, could you come over here?

[2:22:36] You know, people say that there was a big,

[2:22:39] uh, um, what?

[2:22:40] So the thoughts of all said,

[2:22:42] take one of those questions.

[2:22:43] Well, you know, TV facilities,

[2:22:46] the, not show point of public coverage.

[2:22:48] By the Japanese,

[2:22:49] the mindset that they've built out by the property.

[2:22:57] The facilities,

[2:22:59] not built out by the property or by the,

[2:23:02] built out by the property.

[2:23:04] I was so terrified of you.

[2:23:06] Yeah, the,

[2:23:07] Do you be the language isn't clear?

[2:23:11] It's about restoring public infrastructure.

[2:23:15] So sometimes public infrastructure belongs to the county.

[2:23:18] Sometimes public infrastructure belongs to a park district,

[2:23:21] or recreation, you know, the idea is not to build,

[2:23:27] there's no intent or not intent.

[2:23:28] We don't even know where the dollars are going yet.

[2:23:30] We don't, we know what we need to rebuild.

[2:23:33] It may be exactly where it went before.

[2:23:35] That has yet to be determined.

[2:23:36] And that's why we're having public workshops and part of those public workshops that are

[2:23:41] term-in.

[2:23:42] How do we split the money up?

[2:23:43] How much is needed to rebuild a share of substation?

[2:23:46] How much is needed to rebuild a library?

[2:23:50] And Kenny Auditor, Marty, memen, Ram, has agreed to, she has a lot of the information in

[2:23:57] terms of the dollars and cents.

[2:23:59] Additionally, on January 21st, Zach Gatley, who's the county grants manager, the $60 million

[2:24:05] that people are mentioning. I think they're pointing to his presentation. It is a very detailed

[2:24:13] presentation with spreadsheets about different dollars, and not only it was competing to me,

[2:24:18] because not all those dollars came to the count. Some went to housing, some went, you know,

[2:24:23] so it's a good place to start, and that's the goal of the public workshop is to include what money

[2:24:31] come in. Where's it gone? What's the current status? But if you go to that January 21st,

[2:24:37] forward meeting and look at the backup, there's a presentation that has spreadsheets that say,

[2:24:41] what was received, what's been spent today, what's outstanding, and who it went to?

[2:24:48] I have a question about your public. You've been to workshops and basically tell us

[2:24:56] what we should think, and know it's good.

[2:25:01] Are we going to be able to have input?

[2:25:03] I mean, yeah, so yeah, that's the goal of it.

[2:25:07] The goal is to keep it out.

[2:25:09] You do your routine as if you're going to be there, right?

[2:25:12] You are going to listen to what we've got to say.

[2:25:15] It's a faith in Tracy.

[2:25:16] So it's actually going to be a special board meeting.

[2:25:18] So publicly noticed, all the members will be there.

[2:25:22] There'll be, it's not just one or two people.

[2:25:25] It's a, it's a, it's an actual board meeting workshop designed for the public. So it's just going to be the board that's sharing in or,

[2:25:35] we're, how would we get notification that when we've never heard of it.

[2:25:40] When we have a chance, it gets, it's a recommendation to the board today to please direct provide

[2:25:45] direction to do that. That's, that's mine. Kevin said when you do that, it'll be on, it'll be

[2:25:50] the board of supervisors website on the page through the clerk of the board's thing, you can get on

[2:25:56] his mailing list or the county mailing list so that when Vince like this happened, you'll automatically

[2:26:01] get an email. And the plume of son hopefully will be reporting on that as well. Go ahead.

[2:26:08] I was like from what I'm here in here. I was like an answer to the invitation to do first of all,

[2:26:13] the day is wrong. I'm a resolution that you've not quite attached today. I think it is somewhat

[2:26:20] putting a heart off with the nursing ball, but I'm very, very good.

[2:26:25] You need more involvement from the veterans of that network package,

[2:26:29] by the striker, as you should have in public hearing,

[2:26:32] but over your calling and board workshop.

[2:26:36] The student's hand attached.

[2:26:39] We prepared to hear more from the council,

[2:26:43] but the people that are living there, and the people that are affected,

[2:26:47] sounds like they don't feel like they didn't do it.

[2:26:49] Thank you.

[2:26:51] Thank you.

[2:26:52] Here's a public comment.

[2:26:53] Just go ahead.

[2:27:01] Getting up there and talking about, I thank you for providing the opportunity for us to have

[2:27:08] so much public input and to be so involved in the process for the last three and a half

[2:27:13] years.

[2:27:14] I have had the opportunity to experience some of my neighbors in that I've also put those

[2:27:22] little sticky notes up, and I've gone to a lot of meetings, but there have been a lot of meetings.

[2:27:27] There have been a month for the Dixie Fire Collaborative, and there have been two meetings every month

[2:27:33] that were not the community meetings, but there were open meetings of the Dixie Fire Collaborative

[2:27:39] spirit community, and I'm looking at in here, and they're always welcome here, and they listen to

[2:27:44] what we have to say. I've been going to those meetings as regularly as I can, I'm worn out

[2:27:51] from trying to give so much public input

[2:27:54] over the last three and a half years.

[2:27:56] To go three and a half years and finally say,

[2:27:59] okay, we're gonna spend the money

[2:28:00] and burn us for our area, it seems like.

[2:28:02] Thank God, please pass this for as a solution.

[2:28:06] It doesn't say what you're not gonna do,

[2:28:08] it says we're gonna focus the money.

[2:28:10] So thank you for that.

[2:28:13] I guess the thing that I would say to my neighbors

[2:28:16] if I can both face that direction is,

[2:28:20] There are all kinds of opportunities to be involved in many different groups.

[2:28:26] You don't get run-out.

[2:28:28] The one thing that may be frustrating is I put a lot of time into the economic development

[2:28:36] business fund as roundtable IPD.

[2:28:39] And we presented it to the Deacetypire collaborative and after months of working on it,

[2:28:44] and many lots of people involved, they said no.

[2:28:47] And you know what, they're elected people and they're making the best decision they can.

[2:28:52] They said no to a several of my ideas because really frustrating, but somewhat.

[2:28:58] You know, they're also doing good things.

[2:29:00] They're trying to do the best that they can.

[2:29:02] I keep going to the meetings that all keep trying to do the best that I can.

[2:29:07] But they just right.

[2:29:08] We need to work together.

[2:29:09] There's no person out there on a silver stallion that's going to come in and save us.

[2:29:15] So it's going to be us deciding to get together and build some homes and see if we can sell

[2:29:20] them for no profit so that we get people to move into our community.

[2:29:24] It's us working together and it's us sitting for all this boring meetings, giving our input

[2:29:30] because they will listen to you.

[2:29:32] They just won't always do the things I want them to do or that you want them to do.

[2:29:36] But they're trying to do the best so you can.

[2:29:39] So I finally stopped coming to some of the meetings here just because I've got to learn

[2:29:43] But I appreciate you and you and other people have been in those meetings and you keep going.

[2:29:50] I appreciate the fact that you're doing it.

[2:29:52] I'm sorry that people don't see that.

[2:29:56] But I appreciate your efforts and I hope you stay on the committees.

[2:30:00] You're going, because it's going to take all of this, my time.

[2:30:08] I'll just say something quickly about being involved in cities. Dr. Fusson, I was born and raised in

[2:30:15] Indian Valley and had businesses there for very long time. You have a lot of patients. And, you

[2:30:23] know, one big project that I was involved with was the street safety project through the highway

[2:30:29] and I'm bored or that is something that we met two times a month or almost 20 years before we saw a shovel breakback.

[2:30:41] And so I encourage everybody to show up to the meeting and educate yourselves and to be involved to have a lot of patience to ask a lot of questions.

[2:30:55] Yes, and continue to show up and continue to show up.

[2:31:00] And we had multiple community events.

[2:31:03] We're going all the way back to a 2020 project

[2:31:09] from Plimus Corp.

[2:31:09] In 1998, this one, that project started.

[2:31:13] And it was a lot of community outreach

[2:31:15] did it end up exactly the way we wanted to know.

[2:31:18] Did it end up exactly the way the whole community wanted to know.

[2:31:21] But we had a continue to continue to be a voice

[2:31:25] to continue to encourage the community to come out to be involved, and it took a lot of time

[2:31:32] and a lot of patients and a lot of frustration going through calthrans books that were

[2:31:38] 300 to 400 pages thick on designs every month that would change but something was on it

[2:31:43] something we didn't and it just took a lot of experience and a lot of patients.

[2:31:49] I think it would be a good option.

[2:31:56] We're going to report how to use it with the DICC Fire Collaborate, and once again, I was

[2:32:00] almost two years ago, it was the coordinator and the positions of this summer.

[2:32:05] But for the other delays in the DICC Fire Collaborate, we've seen, you know, we've been

[2:32:08] in private members, and they just want to eliminate everybody on the process.

[2:32:13] Hescalder filters are something to read, but there's different grant applications that come

[2:32:19] in the case about our product for consideration.

[2:32:22] Something about a new foundation was our fiscal sponsors, our 5133,

[2:32:27] the fiscal sponsors that we did everything for.

[2:32:29] They reviewed the request and that it goes to the same thing.

[2:32:33] Judd is speaking, our grant guidelines are all on the website,

[2:32:36] and they're there and they're provided things that generally promote

[2:32:39] community projects or community calls.

[2:32:42] Out of late, actually, just saying we supported $25,000,

[2:32:46] it's going to the police county,

[2:32:48] at a Canadian development commission to work on their contract with our CAC to get the

[2:32:52] down payment system.

[2:32:54] We're going to fund $7,000 to the regulatory club that's looking at brain people

[2:32:58] into, for their century rather than brain detoxing for that.

[2:33:01] So these are the community-minded projects that have come on with, the limitations with regard

[2:33:06] to individuals and business individuals and businesses, because that's part of one secret

[2:33:11] organization that can't just do direct funding.

[2:33:13] However, the goal has always been to listen to groups, organizations,

[2:33:18] clubs, what have you that are doing, those types of things only happen in the day.

[2:33:22] So like the food pantry, they come to us looking to supplement their donation.

[2:33:27] That's something you haven't tried to do to make sure that they have something that gets

[2:33:31] out of the end of the year, right?

[2:33:32] That's food that reminds you of the end of the year.

[2:33:35] And they indicated that their volume is up.

[2:33:38] Go figure, right?

[2:33:38] It's a disaster area.

[2:33:39] So of course, there are people in need.

[2:33:42] We're going to support things going to our collective part

[2:33:44] of what's going to be a community center.

[2:33:46] We're putting this in arts, and this is going to be a new program.

[2:33:49] The Don Institute is looking to get its orchids gardens

[2:33:54] and education programming back up, so it can work with the schools.

[2:33:57] The Don Institute is a focal point of Indian Falls,

[2:33:59] one of our disaster communities.

[2:34:02] Please, I have a record, and then I know that we're going to have

[2:34:04] questions about all the time.

[2:34:05] I'm happy to answer.

[2:34:06] I want to be set up in a Christmas tree too, and generally, not in that in that in the evening.

[2:34:13] But I understand the first thing we've seen with the library.

[2:34:16] Everybody, when you've described, it's very real, it's a emotional thing.

[2:34:20] There's nothing that negates that, but I'm just saying, you know, somebody's going to be put here in, somebody's going to be put there.

[2:34:26] The other thing is the funding will only go so far.

[2:34:30] So while I'm back to the funds are gone, the work will always be still remain.

[2:34:34] And that is where, I'm just a person described in the community effort, as a number of organizations, as a variety of organizations, and the DFC has, you know, I still a long time ago, we're trying to put the scene in climate, as difficult and as hard as I had been, there aren't a lot of them instead of collaborating.

[2:34:53] and that's the God of the Truth.

[2:34:56] And there's not like, that's my fun.

[2:34:59] But please,

[2:35:02] the first and second Monday

[2:35:03] is a room on my website, if you're sharing opinion

[2:35:05] you need to please come.

[2:35:06] There aren't some.

[2:35:08] And our next human meeting is on June 14th,

[2:35:13] Saturday June 14th, Saturday June 14th,

[2:35:14] 111 at the Library.

[2:35:16] Thank you.

[2:35:17] Come on on Zoom.

[2:35:26] Hi.

[2:35:28] Hello.

[2:35:32] Hi.

[2:35:35] This is Cindy Cramon. I just had a few things I wanted to say about how to spend

[2:35:43] the Dixie Fire Recovery Funds. I can only speak to my experience and experience of my

[2:35:53] grandchildren, family, friends, and the students and the teachers that live in Greenville,

[2:36:00] And it's remains affected by the Greenville burn scar, the economy,

[2:36:11] everything about the whole situation.

[2:36:14] It's lost its beauty even though we have our hearts are into rebuilding.

[2:36:21] Our fear is that much to the funds will be spent somewhere else.

[2:36:27] and I know there was something that Mimi had referenced

[2:36:33] in the paper or something and she said it was not,

[2:36:36] it was just an example, but what I think Greenville

[2:36:45] needs is we do need infant structure.

[2:36:48] We do need housing.

[2:36:49] We're not going to grow as a town and as a community

[2:36:53] without that, without investing money.

[2:36:56] Our school, Greenville Elementary School is it's shameful to walk through it after seeing how the other schools in Quincy Portola are

[2:37:12] Let's invest in some of our schools we have exposed wires in our library.

[2:37:17] We have buses that sit by side to road and I know that's part of the district's deal.

[2:37:24] But my is let's keep that money.

[2:37:28] Most of that money in the burn.

[2:37:30] Start area. To the people that are still suffering and will suffer for many, many years to come. Our insurance,

[2:37:38] our home insurance alone went up a thousand dollars a month, which is very substantial for us to meet our

[2:37:45] house payment. And I'm sure everybody else has went up high or been cancelled.

[2:37:56] I guess my heart's trying to

[2:37:58] you that if you knew, if you were at the schools, okay, this is just an example from the fire,

[2:38:05] the burn scar. If you saw how these little children from the elementary school,

[2:38:14] they are emotionally, socially, mentally scarred, not just the trees, not just the,

[2:38:21] but there's a difference seen in the children in Greenville, from seeing the children in Portola

[2:38:28] and Quincy. I guess what I'm saying is thank you all for doing your job. I understand how hard it is.

[2:38:38] I just hope that you do whatever you can.

[2:38:43] Thank you, Cindy.

[2:38:45] Thank you, Cindy.

[2:38:47] Well, I just want to point out that I feel like we're all seeing the same thing even though it sounds like we're

[2:38:56] I don't think there's anyone in this room that says let's not spend the money in the

[2:39:01] burn star area. And if we cast the resolution today, it clearly states that we're going to

[2:39:08] restore public infrastructure in those communities. And that's the reason for doing this because

[2:39:14] so many entities have come to the board over the past few years asking for money for things that

[2:39:20] terrible things, but they're not specifically related to the Bernstein area. That's all I want

[2:39:29] to do. I think that's what everybody else in this room wants to do. This is what I hear from

[2:39:33] Cindy and just first, I don't know Cindy still listening, but $2 million if that's $17 million

[2:39:39] or DA settlement, which is a plimmist unified school district foundation. So there's some money

[2:39:44] for the community of Greenville, maybe, you know, and that's, anyway, that's all I want to say is,

[2:39:50] it's some, it's, I feel like we're all on the same side. I don't know why there's so much

[2:39:56] contention. Well, I can't help it. So I understand it directly. That's all, that $2 million dollars is

[2:40:02] now gone and no one can account for it. Delays on the house. So if that was what I heard from the

[2:40:12] It's the foundation, not the school district.

[2:40:15] It went to a non-profit foundation.

[2:40:16] It was on the board of that foundation.

[2:40:19] A little for a little while.

[2:40:21] This is his public company.

[2:40:23] So I have a question specifically about FEMA.

[2:40:25] Were any FEMA reimbursements allocated for replacing the library?

[2:40:34] So what do you think of the public assistance money through

[2:40:37] lots of emergency services or the sheriff's department?

[2:40:44] That's actually on the list of the covered losses.

[2:40:49] But we were underinsured.

[2:40:51] So the Trindell insurance payout for those losses that we have is

[2:40:56] probably going to be inadequate to actually rebuild.

[2:41:00] Are you able to cover that difference?

[2:41:04] Yeah.

[2:41:04] You know, it's for, yeah.

[2:41:06] So, so public entities see losses in disasters.

[2:41:11] There's something called public assistance or CA dollars.

[2:41:15] And so, I think, again, I don't have the details on that,

[2:41:19] but what a county to have sought public,

[2:41:22] Yeah, pay dollars back originally for our town hall for our library and for our share of

[2:41:29] sensation.

[2:41:30] And then there were conversations within the share of the apartment.

[2:41:33] When OBS was part of the share of the apartment, I don't know, you know, where those conversations

[2:41:37] went.

[2:41:37] Or if that, that there was any resolution to FEMA providing what is PIA policies and dollars

[2:41:45] for those facilities.

[2:41:47] We'll be looking at that.

[2:41:47] Okay, let's just as a best practice because of population decline, it's often that you

[2:41:57] pull the services together and have them filter together, meaning like you have the time

[2:42:02] call, the community center plus the library in the same buildings. And that increases that

[2:42:08] helps us social welfare as well, as your community members are crossing paths with each other,

[2:42:12] not on all the set of types, size of the pattern, not the way. So for that age, typically,

[2:42:20] there's not enough funding to rebuild every single building as it goes before. What it is is usually

[2:42:26] like pulling those resources together to submit and have more efficiency with the funds.

[2:42:32] Yeah, that makes total sense. So I notice one of the things you want to do here is not

[2:42:38] is different and we're peat, right? Things are where people are doing the same thing. I'd just

[2:42:43] like to point out an in-demally community service is district meeting in January of this year.

[2:42:50] And I'm greenman was ratified between the CSD and Sierra Institute.

[2:42:58] And on page 3,

[2:43:00] but that agreement, it says that it item B, CSB with a hold, and I'm going to skip down to item

[2:43:08] three, it says construct a library using CLT and green bill as that can double as a resilient

[2:43:17] building and concert with the IVCSD rebuild of town community facility. So what this basically says is that

[2:43:30] with the CRA Institute, which says day will be responsible for rebuilding a library.

[2:43:36] It's already done. This is already done. This is already done.

[2:43:39] Or it's already voted yes on this.

[2:43:42] So I just wanted to bring that to this board's attention since the library is in back from this county property.

[2:43:48] And it seems way outside of the scope of these other things.

[2:43:51] And this is, I think this is a really good example.

[2:43:54] I don't want to my notes here, it says that negative pronouns and negative responses to some of these ideas and projects.

[2:44:02] They don't mean no.

[2:44:04] People are saying, I don't think anybody's in here saying, no, we don't want a community center.

[2:44:08] No, we don't want public spaces.

[2:44:11] What people are saying is, hey, we see a lot of money coming in and a lot of money going out.

[2:44:18] But there's no itemized list of what it's been spent on.

[2:44:21] we see $50,000 for professional services here and $100,000 for professional services over there.

[2:44:28] We'd like to see where all this money is going. And the people would like to be informed of that.

[2:44:37] And also be a part of the discussion. Now, I know that the DSC and many organizations

[2:44:44] and tell them a lot of meetings and they put a lot of effort into

[2:44:48] garner and public input.

[2:44:51] I know that also not everyone can go to these meetings.

[2:44:55] Everyone does.

[2:44:57] I've also been personally asked, stop asking questions.

[2:45:00] Mr. President, is it the time for a lunch? I want to be this evening, right? And so what I think some of these people are talking about, right, is that the transparency, as well as we're looking at the meaningful, but not the check in the box transparency, but the meaningful transparency, so that people can actually understand what is kind of, thank you for letting me.

[2:45:26] one more comment on zoom

[2:45:32] in their board. This is Adam Cox with Indian Valley CSDA. I don't think that

[2:45:36] this is necessarily germane to your discussion, but since it was just brought up by Mr. Kerns,

[2:45:40] I just wanted to shed light because that was a misrepresentation that he shared.

[2:45:45] So Sierra Institute has applied for a federal grant to my understanding and in their grant application

[2:45:51] among other things, many other things. They apparently did put in a request for a couple million

[2:45:59] dollars that would allow them to contribute towards a library branch. What IBCSD agreed to,

[2:46:09] the grant required a statutory partner, meaning that this particular grant was a federal grant

[2:46:15] and it required a partnership between a 501C3 organization and a government agency.

[2:46:21] And so what IBCSD agreed to was to basically be their partner, their government agency partner.

[2:46:26] And we would, we agreed to work with them if they received the award, agreed to work with them.

[2:46:34] And obviously that would include the county if that was a successful award.

[2:46:38] And if we move forward with construction of a library branch.

[2:46:41] And just just a comment, you know, on the negativity,

[2:46:45] it really is kind of sad because it's it's it's neighbor turning against neighbor.

[2:46:50] And it's stopping us from getting anything built and anything done.

[2:46:53] I think the worst part about it though, and what I would ask people to maybe change, carry

[2:46:59] off to the as fine. But coming in guns blazing and making accusations, that's what tends

[2:47:06] to happen with a lot of the people that I heard today that we're making negative comments.

[2:47:10] Maybe approaching it with questions might lead to better outcomes instead of assuming the worst.

[2:47:17] I'm not sure why we're all assuming the worst about our neighbors instead of giving people

[2:47:22] benefit of the doubt. But that's all. And let me know if you have any questions about the

[2:47:27] CR Institute grant. I'm sure that Jonathan Kussel would also be happy to speak with you.

[2:47:33] Any other public comment? We are each first and guess three minutes. So we're not going to

[2:47:37] delve. We're not going to duplicate everything because we'll be here. We'll be off.

[2:47:42] We're free, buddy. You have to do it correctly. Exactly. You've already had your three minutes.

[2:47:47] So who did I give a second one to?

[2:47:53] Mr. Pius felt more than once.

[2:47:57] It was four, three times.

[2:47:59] No, not on this up and we go.

[2:48:02] I'm not going to go back and forth this all day long, but this thing is very important.

[2:48:07] Todd, Todd, go ahead.

[2:48:08] Todd, go ahead.

[2:48:14] So I know that we don't have a lot of time, my soul myself, I wouldn't say anything, but I just, there's a couple of things I'd love to say.

[2:48:22] First off, is aside from the $10,000 that was spent on cats, which I disagree with, but it was spent out of the Dixie Fire Selma.

[2:48:32] I don't believe we've spent any other money out of the Dixie Fire Selma.

[2:48:35] free to fund a disaster relief coordinate. Okay, and so a disaster relief coordinated. Those things were held publicly in this office during this room.

[2:48:47] The public was made aware of that by an agenda. Everyone had an opportunity to come in and speak about it.

[2:48:54] What you're bringing forward is a resolution that allows everybody in here that's coming in so far to do exactly what you're asking.

[2:49:01] There's nothing on there that says Kevin Goss is property is going to ask the new sheriff's

[2:49:06] administration or a new community center that was brought up at a previous meeting that

[2:49:11] again.

[2:49:12] Everybody here was invited to it was brought up with a previous meeting where it was presented

[2:49:17] by Adam Fox and the community service district in Dremel about a concept, the board specifically

[2:49:23] turned it down.

[2:49:25] As far as supervisor Goss, the supervisor of all degrees themselves, I see supervisor Goss

[2:49:30] of multiple times on things that he had an interest on and dream going.

[2:49:35] I don't want to really speak for supervisor Gosk, but I'm going to you, I guess.

[2:49:40] And for some reason, the journey after this meeting, if they asked the resolution,

[2:49:44] which I hope they will, if they go to dream going, going goes,

[2:49:48] yeah, we want to build a community center on Kevin Gosk's property.

[2:49:52] I would almost guarantee that 1,000% he would refuse himself from that decision

[2:49:56] when it's made in the board.

[2:49:58] It's just like everybody here wants to attack everybody without trying to solve something that

[2:50:03] they've been trying to do for three years and now they're trying to get some direction.

[2:50:06] Okay, this is what we're going to do.

[2:50:08] We're going to involve the community and we're just going to attack everybody.

[2:50:12] Any money that gets spent on this because it's in the county will be solved in this room.

[2:50:17] Everyone will have an ability to come back again and go, I disagree with it.

[2:50:21] I agree with it.

[2:50:22] I miss the public meeting in three buildings because I was doing whatever and so now I want

[2:50:27] my comments that I'll all be done in this room. We've been talking about this craziness for

[2:50:31] over an hour and a half now and I just hope that you pass this and I hope that everybody

[2:50:38] in here that said that I've not been involved in public meetings goes to the public meetings

[2:50:43] because I've been the many of them not nearly as many of you have come to the meetings that your

[2:50:50] voice be heard it'll be decided in this room you can come back and I know why I said this in green

[2:50:55] And clearly you didn't listen to me, but I'm voice through it again now that there's a process and I'm going to do this.

[2:51:03] Let's just move forward and start making some decisions.

[2:51:08] So we have a color on Zoom.

[2:51:17] I would like to bring up that supervisor.

[2:51:20] She's already had her three minutes.

[2:51:22] That's it.

[2:51:23] You've allowed people to talk to us.

[2:51:25] No, you're done. Sorry.

[2:51:27] Any other public comment that hasn't had a public comment in this room?

[2:51:32] Go ahead.

[2:51:35] Good boy out of log time, President of Greenville.

[2:51:38] We need this resolution to pass.

[2:51:40] It's a starting point.

[2:51:42] Yes, it's precisely vague, but at this part of the process that's what it needs to be.

[2:51:48] Everybody here is focused on one little bit of a restoring fire damage in the county,

[2:51:55] when really we don't even haven't gotten started yet.

[2:52:01] I want to respect the county where the negotiate by themselves instead of going in with the group.

[2:52:06] It's just that the county's been probably going to got more money,

[2:52:08] because the fire that I've just blew the county more than any other county.

[2:52:13] I have blown them over this fire.

[2:52:16] Many times, at a helicopter, I can tell you that most of the county's burned up from previous fires.

[2:52:23] If you have half a dozen parts that I've done would get you fired in one thousand.

[2:52:29] We need to...

[2:52:45] All right, we'll bring this back to the board, close public comment, any comments from board members, in regards to this item.

[2:52:55] Well, I would just like to say that this has been like everybody feels a long time coming.

[2:53:02] Then I've always from the very beginning after this tragic fire occurred that I wanted

[2:53:08] both of these settlement funds to benefit the burn scorer area. And that's only right.

[2:53:15] I mean, Greg, I didn't suffer any effects from the fire owners and people buying homes there

[2:53:21] because they got burn out of Greenville, but I mean what I'm listening to here is we're all fighting

[2:53:26] about the same thing. So I'd like to make a motion to pass this revolution and move forward instead

[2:53:33] of fighting amongst ourselves. Okay, we have a motion on the floor. We have a second.

[2:53:39] Please supervise your angle. Yes, supervise your Sarah Solan. Yes, the supervise them are gowns

[2:53:46] The bars are Paul. Yes, yes

[2:53:58] Okay, so noted yes, we will put the sixth on there. We'll take a couple of one of it for everybody to go ahead and exit unless you want to hear about appointments

[2:54:12] We're going to take a break or a closed session.

[2:54:23] It's on the break.

[2:54:26] Let's do these appointments for a break.

[2:54:29] Let's take up B1.

[2:54:32] a point

[2:54:37] just.

[2:54:55] Yes. Yes.
