CLEARLAKE, Calif. – The Clearlake City Council will hold a special meeting this week to discuss a response to the grand jury and a number of abatements.
The council will meet beginning at 5:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 5, in closed session to discuss a lawsuit before meeting in open session at 6 p.m. in the council chambers at Clearlake City Hall, 14050 Olympic Drive.
On the agenda is the council's receipt and response to the 2016-17 Lake County Grand Jury Report.
City Manager Greg Folsom’s report explained that the grand jury document included several issues related to the city of Clearlake or mentioning Clearlake – road conditions, tax lien sales and animal control.
“A response is only required regarding the road conditions since the other two items only mentioned the City of Clearlake and were primarily about the County,” he wrote.
He said staff supports the report’s recommendations, including prioritizing the roadway rehabilitation in terms of existing problems and coordinating with the county of Lake to participate in a tax lien property tax sale.
In other business, the council will consider approving a resolution for criminal history checks of commercial marijuana dispensaries and discuss awarding a contract for professional engineering design services relating to the Country Club Drive Pavement Rehabilitation Preliminary Study Report.
Also on the agenda, the council will consider abatement orders for 11 properties: 4116 Sunset Ave., 3900 Vista Robles Way, 15595 31st Ave., 3843 Emile Ave., 15961 21st Ave., 4075 Eureka Ave., 4055 Eureka Ave., 3051 Sixth St., 3071 Sixth St., 3347 Seventh St. and 3355 Seventh St.
On the consent agenda – items considered noncontroversial and usually accepted as a slate on one vote – is a resolution correcting the deed and re-transfer of the Clearlake City Hall property to the city of Clearlake from the successor agency for the former redevelopment agency.
