LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Board of Supervisors will consider a request this week to create a new municipal advisory council to represent residents of Clearlake Oaks and the surrounding areas.
The board will meet beginning at 9 a.m. Tuesday, May 24, in the board chambers on the first floor of the Lake County Courthouse, 255 N. Forbes St., Lakeport.
The meeting can be watched live on Channel 8 and online at http://www.co.lake.ca.us/Government/Boards/Board_of_Supervisors/calendar.htm . Accompanying board documents, the agenda and archived board meeting videos also are available at that link.
In an untimed item, District 3 Supervisor Jim Steele will ask the board to consider a resolution approving the establishment of the East Region 3 Town Hall, or “EaRTH.”
EaRTH would be a municipal advisory council covering communities including Clearlake Oaks, Double Eagle, Glenhaven, Kono Tayee, Paradise Cove, Round Valley and Spring Valley. All meetings would be open to the public.
The group's purpose would be to host “discussions regarding local issues, seek resolution and consensus to problems in the region and act as an advisor to the District 3 member of the Board of Supervisors. The District Supervisor shall determine when it is appropriate for EaRTH to make a presentation to the Board of Supervisors,” according to the proposed resolution.
EaRTH's would have a five-member board, including a member each from the Spring Valley and Clearlake Oaks Keys property owners associations, a member of the Clearlake Oaks Business Association and two members at large.
It is to act solely as an advisory board and will not have the authority to represent the county directly to any other governmental body or organization, the resolution said.
The Board of Supervisors similarly formed a municipal advisory council, the Middletown Area Town Hall, in December 2006. MATH meets each month and advises the District 1 supervisor, currently Jim Comstock, on issues of community interest.
In other business, in an item timed for 9:15 a.m., the board will consider continuing the proclamation of a local health emergency by Lake County Health Officer Dr. Karen Tait first made in September in response to the Valley fire.
The full agenda follows.
