The meeting will begin at 9 a.m. Tuesday, March 23, in the Board of Supervisors chambers at the Lake County Courthouse, 255 N. Forbes St., Lakeport. TV8 will broadcast the meeting live.
Last year, following a crash landing, the Board of Supervisors became aware that then-Lt. Dave Garzoli was taking helicopter flight training, allegedly under the auspices of a federal marijuana eradication. Garzoli since has been demoted to sergeant.
The board asked the California Attorney General's Office to investigate the possible misappropriation of public funds for the helicopter training, but the agency has declined to do so.
The board also received a letter from the Federal Aviation Administration, which found no issue with Garzoli's licensing during the flights.
The 10 a.m. discussion will consider what options the county now has in the matter.
Local geothermal energy production also will be on the Tuesday agenda.
At 10:15 a.m. the board will consider sending letters to state and federal agencies requesting funding for further research in the Geysers geothermal field on Cobb to better understand the mechanisms causing earthquakes. They're also seeking assistance with identifying more effective mitigation measures by the geothermal industry to the surrounding communities of the Geysers area.
At 11: 15 a.m., Calpine representatives will make a presentation to the board regarding the operations at The Geysers geothermal steamfield on Cobb.
In an untimed item, supervisors also will consider approving findings of fact on the Sierra Club Lake Group's appeal of the Planning Commission’s certification last October of Cristallago Development Corp.'s final environmental impact report. The board denied that appeal on Feb. 9.
The board also will hold a closed session to discuss labor negotiations.
