I know it's kind of weird they're not coming in and I'm just concerned given 63 00:03:41,170 --> 00:03:47,810 the history that I'm aware of and my concerns in the past that they're able to do their job and 64 00:03:47,810 --> 00:03:52,970 I'm wondering if there's a way that I can get in touch with the oversight committee or something 65 00:03:52,970 --> 00:03:56,670 maybe they should be meeting more often now that we have this unusual circumstance. 66 00:03:57,530 --> 00:04:03,450 If there's a problem with whatever's going on with that official why they're not coming in that 67 00:04:03,450 --> 00:04:08,850 that maybe we could have an acting person signed to do the duties that I don't know the rules. 68 00:04:09,290 --> 00:04:13,390 So I'm wondering if there's a way I can, how can I find out more about this? 69 00:04:13,830 --> 00:04:16,410 We can have staff follow up with you, Mr. Farty. 70 00:04:16,490 --> 00:04:16,810 I have a point. 71 00:04:17,090 --> 00:04:17,210 Yeah. 72 00:04:17,350 --> 00:04:17,630 Okay. 73 00:04:17,790 --> 00:04:18,150 Thank you. 74 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:20,880 Okay. 75 00:04:21,020 --> 00:04:21,880 Any other public comment? 76 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:25,420 It's the next question. 77 00:04:25,740 --> 00:04:29,800 Is the Treasury Oversight Committee due to meet soon, or is I have something on 78 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,380 my calendar, but I don't know that that's happening? 79 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,220 Yeah, there's, I can follow up with the exact date, but there is one scheduled 80 00:04:36,220 --> 00:04:41,160 for this month.

The Treasury Oversight 81 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:46,760 Committee has a specific role regarding investments, not oversight of staff or elected officials. 82 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,580 Okay, any other public comment in the room? 83 00:04:54,110 --> 00:04:56,710 Let's move to Zoom. First caller on Zoom, 84 00:04:56,830 --> 00:04:59,530 please go ahead. I'm 85 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,400 calling back again because nobody's done anything to help me. 86 00:05:08,260 --> 00:05:14,580 so you know about the something 50 violations that are potential possible 87 00:05:14,580 --> 00:05:20,100 made-up violations quote-unquote it says potential. I have a fire break around 88 00:05:20,100 --> 00:05:24,660 my houses on the TPZ land. Those fire breaks were on the farm when I bought it. 89 00:05:24,840 --> 00:05:29,540 I did do a little bit of work before the Dixie fire. That fire break was 90 00:05:29,540 --> 00:05:34,520 dozed almost every day for weeks by multiple fire departments during the 91 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:39,420 fire, the Dixie fire that work might have been done by the Forest Service Fire Department 92 00:05:39,420 --> 00:05:44,260 because Genesee falls under their preview. But honestly, I don't know which fire departments 93 00:05:44,260 --> 00:05:49,580 came out here every few hours and kept dozing. Meanwhile, I've been written up for that 94 00:05:49,580 --> 00:05:54,120 fire breaks and told that I have to pull, I have to pull a permit for that fire break. 95 00:05:54,300 --> 00:06:00,160 And I didn't make that fire break. And so, again, I need you guys to show up. 96 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,680 I need you guys to come out here and look at my place. I need you to look at these 97 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:11,040 things because they don't make sense, and I keep doing everything I can to keep this just kind of 98 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:18,820 as simple and clean as possible. But I need your help because if a fire department comes onto my 99 00:06:18,820 --> 00:06:23,820 art, Forest Service, somebody comes on my property and cuts a fire break so that they can get down 100 00:06:23,820 --> 00:06:30,240 to the creek because it's on fire over and over again, why should I be required to pull a permit 101 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,100 for that. I really need you to answer that. 102 00:06:37,730 --> 00:06:39,870 Thank you. Next over on Zoom.

I just wanted to 199 00:13:57,250 --> 00:14:01,450 give a really large shout-out to our program coordinator, Jessica Cuello, who 200 00:14:01,450 --> 00:14:05,930 has put in a lot of effort to this program to revamp it and blow it. Also 201 00:14:05,930 --> 00:14:10,210 to Heather Wells, Lauren Davis, and Janna McDowell, who are the nurses and 202 00:14:10,210 --> 00:14:14,210 our clinic and the boots on the ground. Despite our continued clinic 203 00:14:14,210 --> 00:14:20,650 critical staffing levels. This dedicated team has 335 on-the-ground home visits last fiscal year, 204 00:14:20,790 --> 00:14:27,730 serving 44 families and 68 children. They also scored 820 out of 21 on their essential requirements 205 00:14:27,730 --> 00:14:32,890 for parents' teachers program, which is a significant important difference from last year, 206 00:14:32,970 --> 00:14:36,870 which is 13 out of 21. So this program has really taken off this last fiscal year, 207 00:14:36,950 --> 00:14:39,550 and I just really wanted to give them that kudos and that acknowledgement. 208 00:14:40,590 --> 00:14:42,490 Last but not least, and I'll make it quick. 209 00:14:42,950 --> 00:14:46,830 Additionally, I want to highlight a coordinated initiative brought together by Sheriff's 210 00:14:46,830 --> 00:14:47,470 Department. 211 00:14:48,350 --> 00:14:52,810 District Attorney Dave Hollister's office, Stephanie Tanaka from Alternative Sentencing, 212 00:14:53,010 --> 00:14:57,950 along with representatives from Behavioral Health Probation and Pumas Sacred Hospital, 213 00:14:58,570 --> 00:14:59,970 to discuss ways to bridge local 214 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:15,520 The gaps among our justice-involved individuals in this county, acknowledging that our county does not have a local residential detox or inpatient rehab facility, and a lack of transportation and inability to afford care keeps people from seeking help. 215 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:29,360 And so what we got together, we figured out how to address this historic barrier, and we have officially contracted with Granite Wellness in Grat Valley to provide this comprehensive care treatment and recovery services to eligible individuals. 216 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:30,760 leaving incarceration. 217 00:15:33,380 --> 00:15:35,120 Importantly, these services are funded 218 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:36,840 through opioid settlement dollars, 219 00:15:37,180 --> 00:15:41,440 ensuring that we have used these dollars as designated resources 220 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,540 to address the very crisis those settlement dollars 221 00:15:44,540 --> 00:15:45,520 are intended to mitigate. 222 00:15:46,500 --> 00:15:48,300 So again, it was an email. 223 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:49,480 We were all brought to the table. 224 00:15:49,660 --> 00:15:50,840 We all got together stakeholders 225 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,580 and dressed with the gappas in our county 226 00:15:52,580 --> 00:15:53,800 and came up with this plan. 227 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:55,560 And it is officially executed. 228 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:57,940 We will start making referrals based off 229 00:15:57,940 --> 00:16:02,500 of alternative sensing assessments and see what happens. 230 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:04,540 We'll collect the data and I will keep the board updated. 231 00:16:06,180 --> 00:16:06,600 Thank you. 232 00:16:07,260 --> 00:16:07,700 Thank you. 233 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,640 Katie Harris with the Fairgrounds, 234 00:16:15,660 --> 00:16:18,200 a quick little recap of our fair. 235 00:16:19,100 --> 00:16:22,960 It went off phenomenal, I think, 236 00:16:23,940 --> 00:16:26,580 because of all the volunteers and people 237 00:16:26,580 --> 00:16:29,260 who really stepped in to make it happen. 238 00:16:29,260 --> 00:16:36,220 So, so many different volunteers, people to thank, supervisors, thank you for showing 239 00:16:36,220 --> 00:16:40,320 up and being there and making it all come together. 240 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:44,140 We've gotten some incredible feedback from the community. 241 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:52,100 It is the major feedback that we have is that our counties, Plumice and Sierra, absolutely 242 00:16:52,100 --> 00:16:59,600 love the opportunity to come and gather, to have fun, to have food, and run into 243 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:06,360 people, and have conversation, and also to show off their home arts, arts, 244 00:17:06,780 --> 00:17:14,100 floriculture, agriculture, livestock. And everyone loves this tradition, and so it 245 00:17:14,100 --> 00:17:21,320 was a great success. Huge learning curve coming in right at the tail end of 246 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:28,420 planning, but thanks to everything that was pressed prior to it was a smooth transition. So 247 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:38,080 thank you to all the volunteers out there for every level that we have. It's because of them 248 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:44,040 and the people stepping in and all the different departments that made it so wonderful. So already 249 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:54,260 starting to plan 2027 and looking forward to that thank you. What was the final attendance number? 250 00:17:55,220 --> 00:18:01,140 So right now the final attendance trying to figure that piece out so we have I implemented 251 00:18:01,140 --> 00:18:09,640 right before a new point of sales thanks to the IT department for helping me with that 252 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:15,240 That's just another thing, I mean, all the county departments and the department heads 253 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,860 really showed up for it, but going back to that. 254 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:25,120 So our point of sales gives us a reading of what we sold within it. 255 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:36,000 We only sold tickets Thursday from two o'clock because from noon to two it was free entrance 256 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:41,880 And then on Sunday, it was pay as you go day. 257 00:18:42,220 --> 00:18:47,740 So this was something that was already put into place prior to me coming. 258 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:52,220 So that means our point of sale only gets those ranges. 259 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,420 So that number was in the 4,000. 260 00:18:55,540 --> 00:19:00,560 I don't know the exact of ticket sales that we had coming through the gates. 261 00:19:01,860 --> 00:19:12,920 Some of that though, when we then go to the clickers, gives us another number and our clicker count is going from Thursday to Sunday. 262 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:20,220 And what's not clear is those that have multiple entrances in, so did they come in twice? 263 00:19:21,220 --> 00:19:31,740 So our clicker count was a little over 13,000 for Thursday through Sunday. 264 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,860 So there's a huge area. 265 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,220 That is something, you know, moving forward. 266 00:19:40,460 --> 00:19:44,300 I want to try to figure out how do we get a really solid count of it. 267 00:19:44,300 --> 00:19:53,880 The other thing that I ran into is one of the tickets that we sold was a Family of Five pass. 268 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:58,240 So for $10, they got a Family of Five in. 269 00:19:59,180 --> 00:20:05,940 And not Family of Five, then you click all those five people, but on our point of sales, it's one sale. 270 00:20:05,940 --> 00:20:12,320 So, you know, going back then to the point of sale, pulling out how many 271 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:19,280 family bypasses did we have, and then assuming that they then brought in five 272 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:25,100 people from that. You have your work cut out for you. I know, you know, revenue 273 00:20:25,100 --> 00:20:30,220 is important, but the number of people that attend is far greater than what 274 00:20:30,220 --> 00:20:36,240 you're able to show right now and it's more important to both Sierra and 275 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:43,660 Plumas County. You know that hard number. How do we do that? And so that is definitely one 276 00:20:45,020 --> 00:20:50,300 is that I think the ticket sales and really reigning that in and trying to 277 00:20:50,300 --> 00:20:56,540 figure the piece out and also the passes that we you know were able to get 278 00:20:56,540 --> 00:21:05,100 But financially, it just doesn't work for us for $10 to give a family a five that. 279 00:21:05,700 --> 00:21:12,680 So not looking, I still want public to come and have it very reasonable to attend the fair 280 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:17,640 because we want them to come and go to the food vendors and all the other vendors and 281 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:18,480 do the rides. 282 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,860 But also looking, you know, what is the baseline? 283 00:21:22,020 --> 00:21:23,160 Where are areas? 284 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:28,060 How can we make the ticket sales a little clear with that? 285 00:21:28,420 --> 00:21:30,900 On that note, what is the... 286 00:21:30,900 --> 00:21:34,440 Do you want to stop the back and forth questions, discussions, and answers?

We received a grant for $2,500 and the services were actually $2,700. But when I told them our grant was only $2,500, they agreed to lower their cost. 344 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:28,840 Yes. 345 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:36,680 Just speak to it a little bit. One of the reasons we're doing out of contrasting like that is to get something paid at the time of the fashion. 346 00:25:37,180 --> 00:25:37,260 Yeah. 347 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:43,500 Right, rather than take the six weeks to get it on it.

If we want to charge tax, we got some amount of state or Amazon or 414 00:30:58,700 --> 00:31:02,760 whatever it was. If they didn't charge tax, we would pay at that point directly to 415 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:08,140 the franchise tax board.

Supervisor Engel? 491 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:36,360 Well, the solid waste gas force meeting yesterday, Alan Hiskey was there, and correspondence 492 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:45,440 I've had regarding ugly logging, wildlife conservation board land acquisitions and property 493 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:46,340 value assessments. 494 00:34:47,380 --> 00:34:47,900 Okay. 495 00:34:48,720 --> 00:34:48,820 Everett. 496 00:34:49,580 --> 00:34:50,020 Everett. 497 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,900 Well, we're glad you're there to receive the information. 498 00:34:53,900 --> 00:34:55,600 Supervisor McGowan. 499 00:34:57,700 --> 00:35:07,860 Most significant for me anyway is I attended the soft grand opening for Waganupa Brewing and downtown Chester across from the Dollar General. 500 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,880 It's been a long project to get that going. 501 00:35:12,540 --> 00:35:16,260 Great to see a new business coming in and there are others. 502 00:35:16,260 --> 00:35:25,000 Clint Coblay intends to showcase any new businesses in the county that would like to participate. 503 00:35:26,430 --> 00:35:37,360 Also met with the CEO of CSAC and the president of CSAC, Supervisor Hall and Supervisor Goss. 504 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:47,420 us. We got to tour the new hospital in Chester and the side conversations I think were very 505 00:35:47,420 --> 00:35:56,060 educational for those two state individuals. I'm sure my fellow supervisors will add to 506 00:35:56,060 --> 00:36:04,540 that, but this is part of the unofficial outside of the normal conduct of business 507 00:36:04,540 --> 00:36:11,620 where communication and education takes place all the time and good ideas are 508 00:36:11,620 --> 00:36:17,760 shared and they are supported and supplemented by other people in other 509 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:27,080 areas and recognizing that rural health care in California is a real challenge 510 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:33,380 these days and funding is a big part of that so that the fact that we are 511 00:36:33,380 --> 00:36:41,700 able to build a brand new hospital to all the HCI and state standards is 512 00:36:41,700 --> 00:36:46,580 something that they couldn't really believe. They were astonished, but we 513 00:36:46,580 --> 00:36:51,460 were able to complete that and fund it. You know, it's an 83 million dollar 514 00:36:51,460 --> 00:37:02,740 hospital and for a small community like the Lake Elmler District, that's a 515 00:37:02,740 --> 00:37:03,020 well. 516 00:37:07,100 --> 00:37:16,240 That's right. Yes, the 5th of August, I had one of the second to final meetings on the 517 00:37:16,240 --> 00:37:23,580 predatory species working group that I'm on through RCRC and we're just kind of wrapping up and 518 00:37:23,580 --> 00:37:34,380 we'll be putting out a report to RCRC about the outcomes and what we've come up with the next 519 00:37:34,380 --> 00:37:41,040 month or so and whether we're going to continue that working group or not which most folks 520 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:45,820 do want to continue that working group so I think that could still continue on. 521 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:54,240 The sixth was the CSAC visit as Tom was talking about and we met up on the in Greenville 522 00:37:54,940 --> 00:38:02,580 toured around with Dan and Mimi and Tom and Graham and the CSAC president Susan Ellenberg 523 00:38:02,580 --> 00:38:08,440 from Santa Clara County and showed her, you know, we showed a lot of stuff that was being 524 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:13,960 built back in Greenville. And then we went up to the top of Mount Huff overlooking Crystal 525 00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:21,700 Lake to have lunch and kind of get a bird's eye view of Plumas County and kind of the 526 00:38:21,700 --> 00:38:28,600 extent of the Dixie Fire and other things. But the beauty as well. And I thought it 527 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:29,800 It was a great visit. 528 00:38:30,060 --> 00:38:34,880 And then on the seventh, I had a CalAPCO board meeting 529 00:38:35,780 --> 00:38:39,240 where we discussed much new things 530 00:38:39,240 --> 00:38:40,880 that are gonna be coming our way. 531 00:38:41,240 --> 00:38:44,280 The dues committee is looking at restructuring the dues 532 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,540 for each one of the counties that serve 533 00:38:46,540 --> 00:38:48,980 on the CalAPCO board or on the CalAPCO board. 534 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:51,600 So we're gonna be talking a lot about that 535 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:54,420 in our October annual meeting. 536 00:38:54,420 --> 00:39:02,440 and also had on yesterday we had the Plumas Lab Co. meeting in Portola at the 537 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:10,840 City Hall Chambers where I was nominated again to run for office for the Cal Lab 538 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:16,720 Co. Board for the Northern District so I'll be doing that and that is all. 539 00:39:22,300 --> 00:39:29,980 I did a lot of the same things other people did regarding the visit from the CSEC president 540 00:39:29,980 --> 00:39:31,260 and CEO and staff. 541 00:39:32,940 --> 00:39:38,280 We were the first county for this year's county tour and I think it was significant 542 00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,600 and important that they started with the rural county. 543 00:39:41,580 --> 00:39:53,060 Last week I had mentioned that some of the work I'm doing as a CSAC board member is to revamp CSAC's statewide legislative platform. 544 00:39:53,780 --> 00:40:07,040 And I've been working with one of their staffers in follow-up to that visit to take a look at the legislative platform and not just say rural counties get, you know, additional funding or extra funding, 545 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:12,360 but take a whole new look at the statewide platform, which is what determines what legislation 546 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:16,300 the strong statewide organization supports and doesn't support. 547 00:40:16,900 --> 00:40:24,600 So the approach that we're working on is to redline the existing policy platform so 548 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:29,640 that in every section, whether it's economic development, rural policy, funding, whatever 549 00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:34,400 it may be, that there is a component that equalizes things for counties of all size. 550 00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:38,520 The process is that every caucus is going to have to vote on this. 551 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:41,620 The rural caucus, the suburban caucus, and the urban caucus. 552 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:46,980 So we are being – and I'm also working with the rural caucus leaders on this. 553 00:40:47,460 --> 00:40:52,560 So we're careful not to use terms as rural, rural, rural, rural, or small, small, small, 554 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:52,720 small. 555 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:54,080 We don't want special treatment. 556 00:40:54,580 --> 00:40:58,700 What we want is to make sure that when the state makes decisions about our funding 557 00:40:58,700 --> 00:41:04,440 and our laws that they take into account county size, county geography, population density, 558 00:41:04,900 --> 00:41:05,600 fixed costs. 559 00:41:06,420 --> 00:41:09,360 So it's not about us being special, it's that every county is different. 560 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:14,680 So if this passes, it'll be the first time in CSEC's history that there will be a lens 561 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:18,960 over its entire policy platform that equalizes things for rural counties. 562 00:41:20,720 --> 00:41:25,920 Got a lot of communications about the timber harvesting that's happening in town as 563 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:28,200 as well as some work that's happening in East Quincy. 564 00:41:29,140 --> 00:41:31,420 And one of the biggest things that came up from it 565 00:41:31,420 --> 00:41:32,180 was the noise. 566 00:41:33,140 --> 00:41:34,760 I guess some of the work starts really early. 567 00:41:35,140 --> 00:41:36,700 It's early as 3 a.m. 568 00:41:37,020 --> 00:41:39,120 and our planning director confirmed that, 569 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:43,120 which I know, we don't have a current noise ordinance 570 00:41:44,700 --> 00:41:47,480 that determines what time things can start, 571 00:41:47,900 --> 00:41:49,440 what time noise has to end. 572 00:41:49,860 --> 00:41:52,900 That is one of the things that we have been thinking 573 00:41:52,900 --> 00:42:00,160 about as a county and we do have slated for this fall a consultant to help the county planning 574 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:05,220 department develop their workshop and on a county-wide noise ordinance. So if you're a member 575 00:42:05,220 --> 00:42:10,360 of the public interested in participating in that, staying abreast of it, please keep your eyes 576 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:17,600 and ears open for those planning commission workshops. And the process is a change like 577 00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:22,720 that, an ordinance change goes to the Planning Commission and then there'll be public notices 578 00:42:22,720 --> 00:42:28,380 and things and then once it goes through that process, then it comes to the Board of Supervisors. 579 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:31,380 So there should be plenty of time for the public to be informed. 580 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:34,100 Want to laugh go? 581 00:42:35,740 --> 00:42:41,640 Next week, I'm attending a special board meeting, a CSAC Board of Directors, so CSAC 582 00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:43,860 is the California State Association of Counties. 583 00:42:43,860 --> 00:42:50,240 There's one board member on the CSAC board from every county, so 58 board members, and 584 00:42:50,240 --> 00:42:52,040 every county has a board member. 585 00:42:52,780 --> 00:42:58,000 But we are having board of directors special meeting next week, and we're going to be meeting 586 00:42:58,000 --> 00:42:58,820 with our legislators. 587 00:42:59,820 --> 00:43:02,720 We have three weeks until the end of the legislative season. 588 00:43:03,020 --> 00:43:08,560 We're funding and policy decisions get made for us, so we're using the last two weeks 589 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:12,900 to get our asks in there to get in front of our own delegates, which are Heather 590 00:43:12,900 --> 00:43:20,320 Hadwick and Megan Dolly as well as other folks and leadership of key committees in the legislature. 591 00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:26,180 We'll also get a chance to meet some of the constitutional candidates and just get a better 592 00:43:26,180 --> 00:43:32,520 understanding of where they stand in terms of their policy platform for rural counties. 593 00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:37,120 Oh, yeah, wildfire liability fund. 594 00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:42,980 The other thing that came to our attention is that there may be some last minute, last 595 00:43:42,980 --> 00:43:48,700 ditch efforts that there's brimmers that our governor may propose last minute legislation 596 00:43:48,700 --> 00:43:52,480 to change elements of the wildfire liability fund. 597 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:56,900 And so while I'm in Sacramento next week, and we may have a board item next week 598 00:43:56,900 --> 00:44:01,740 as well, I'm looking for the board to support our advocacy of protecting small counties. 599 00:44:01,740 --> 00:44:09,040 companies. The talk around the capital is that the private utility companies are lobbying 600 00:44:09,750 --> 00:44:15,960 to reduce their liability costs when they start wildfires and that the costs will be shifted 601 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:21,800 to consumers and ratepayers and we're absolutely against that. So please keep your eyes and 602 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:26,880 ears open and if you hear about it, write to you or call your legislative representative, 603 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:31,020 legislative, which would be Heather Hadwick on the assembly side and Megan Dolly on the 604 00:44:31,020 --> 00:44:31,700 sent side. 605 00:44:32,500 --> 00:44:35,300 You're there for RCRC, so I might be able to find you and help. 606 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:39,600 Yeah, so Wednesday evening is the legislative meet and greet. 607 00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:40,360 Okay. 608 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:43,440 Can I add this one thing? 609 00:44:44,620 --> 00:44:52,980 The growth of RCRC rural counties has gone from 24 when I started to 40 now. 610 00:44:52,980 --> 00:44:59,000 Now, 40 of the 58 counties belong to RCRC because they had very similar. 611 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:07,840 We do rural California. That leaves 18 that are all members of CSAC and they're the urban 612 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:14,020 counties. I was good friends with the lobbyists for Los Angeles County and they have a great 613 00:45:14,020 --> 00:45:21,260 deal of rural county territory that they're responsible for. He was able to supplement 614 00:45:21,260 --> 00:45:29,520 and help other rural counties with purchase of equipment, et cetera. So I wish you the 615 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:35,500 best of luck I'm sure that it'd be well received but having this new lens at 616 00:45:35,500 --> 00:45:41,380 what we call rural and what's needed in those rural counties and doing it 617 00:45:41,380 --> 00:45:47,900 equitably across the state will be a huge improvement for all of us. Yeah I 618 00:45:47,900 --> 00:45:51,400 think it's important an important distinction to go from small and rural 619 00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:57,580 and move to county size population density you know ability to scale 620 00:45:57,580 --> 00:46:01,700 all because that's if you're Los Angeles County you might have rural areas but 621 00:46:01,700 --> 00:46:07,620 guess what you get the bazillion dollars to just you know unlike us. At that point 622 00:46:07,620 --> 00:46:13,560 when we were up on Mount Huff both Graham Nos and Susan Ellenberg from Santa 623 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:18,700 Clara we were telling them you see Mount Lassen our County line is just right at 624 00:46:18,700 --> 00:46:23,940 the base there and we pointed east west and south and they were amazed at how 625 00:46:23,940 --> 00:46:30,860 huge this county is in relation to 18,000 people. They don't have that 626 00:46:30,860 --> 00:46:36,140 environment. They can walk around a block and have that many people. So the 627 00:46:36,140 --> 00:46:43,520 awareness of the size hit home dramatically and they will both carry 628 00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:50,260 forward this new idea about looking at all of the responsibilities of county 629 00:46:50,260 --> 00:46:52,760 governments in relation to their funding? 630 00:46:53,800 --> 00:47:00,780 Yes, and the goal of this policy framework is to not create a rural versus urban situation, 631 00:47:01,420 --> 00:47:03,780 but really an equity framework. 632 00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:04,440 Right. 633 00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:05,620 So, yeah, thank you. 634 00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:08,620 It's almost frontier to frontier counties. 635 00:47:09,380 --> 00:47:11,940 No, no, no, no, no, no, that's not using that word. 636 00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:12,720 Pioneer. 637 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:15,380 Oh, I forgot one final thing. 638 00:47:15,380 --> 00:47:21,300 Last week, I talked about a $5 million grant that a bunch of rural counties got from the 639 00:47:21,300 --> 00:47:26,140 Mental Health Services Oversight and Accountability Commission. 640 00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:34,120 And so as we move into grant implementation, I've been asked to sit as co-chair of the 641 00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:34,640 Steering Committee. 642 00:47:35,180 --> 00:47:39,920 So I'll be doing that with Scott DeMoss, who can help lead the application effort 643 00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:42,760 with myself, and we'll be sitting as co-chairs. 644 00:47:43,820 --> 00:47:44,200 So that's that. 645 00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:52,480 All right. Where are we on the board? I think now we have to go into closed session with 646 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:59,320 a reminder that we're pulling item 5B and I do need to announce the items that are going 647 00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:05,000 to be discussed in closed session.
