Honors for sheriff's deputies and grievance hearings on Tuesday Board of Supervisors' agenda
The meeting will begin at 9 a.m. Tuesday, Oct. 11, in the board chambers on the first floor of the Lake County Courthouse, 255 N. Forbes St., Lakeport.
In proclamations to be presented at 10:20 a.m., the board will honor Deputy Gary Frace, Sgt. Andy Davidson and Sgt. Mike Curran.
The three men are credited with saving lives at the scene of a shooting last month.
On Saturday, Sept. 10, the men responded to Kelseyville home where Andrew Serrano is alleged to have shot Willy Turner and assaulted his estranged wife, Lesa Serrano, as Lake County News has reported.
According to reports on the incident, Frace arrived first, using bolt cutters to cut a lock on the driveway gate and finding Andrew Serrano, allegedly with gun in hand, dragging his wife toward his pickup.
Frace, along with Davidson and Curran – who arrived soon after – are being lauded with stopping the incident from escalating further.
At 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday, the board will continue the hearings first held on Sept. 13 regarding the Lake County Correctional Officers Association's grievances over unilateral changes to sick leave police, shift swaps and eight-hour shifts, and the Lake County Sheriff Deputy Association's grievance regarding a unilateral change to sick leave policy.
In other business, the board will present a proclamation to retiring County Clerk/Auditor-Controller Pam Cochrane, whose successor – Cathy Saderlund – the board appointed last week at 9:55 a.m.
At 10 a.m., the board will consider the proposed acquisition of property at 21277 Calistoga St. in Middletown for a sheriff's office facility. That purchase price and terms are the topic of a closed session which will include the board, Sheriff Frank Rivero, County Administrative Officer Kelly Cox and Stacey Mattina of Konocti Realty, representing WestAmerica Bank.
At 10:25 a.m. the board will consider a second reading of an ordinance setting regulations for medical marijuana cultivation.
The board also will hold a closed session to discuss labor negotiations with the Lake County Employees Association, Lake County Deputy Sheriff's Association, Lake County Correctional Officer's Association and Lake County Deputy District Attorney's Association and the proposed purchase for a sheriff's substation in Middletown.
A separate closed session is scheduled to discuss Public Employee Disciplinary Appeal No.
