On Tuesday’s consent agenda, the board is expected to approve advisory board appointments to the Community Visioning Forum Planning Committee.
The city of Clearlake’s representative will be Mayor Dirk Slooten and Councilwoman Mireya Turner will represent the city of Lakeport.
Staff reviewed the applicants with the board and finalized its recommendations, which include appointing tribal representatives, Sally Peterson of Middletown Rancheria and Beniakem Cromwell of Robinson Rancheria, and general members Angela Cuellar-Marroquin, Delores Farrell, JoAnn Saccato and Sue Williams.
The group is to be tasked with planning community visioning forums focused on promoting tolerance, respect, equity and inclusion in Lake County.
At 9:05 a.m., the board will hold a public hearing to consider extending a use permit for a cell tower project at 9475 Mojave Trail, Kelseyville.
Horizon Tower Limited LLC is requesting a one-year extension for the use permit, which allows an 85-foot-tall “tree pole tower.” The Lake County Planning Commission approved the project in January 2019 and the Board of Supervisors denied a project appeal in April 2019. The permit is valid for two years and set to expire on April 23.
Also on Tuesday, during closed session, the board will conduct an interview with Public Health officer candidates and may announce an appointment, based on the text of the agenda.
Public Health Officer Dr. Gary Pace is leaving his post with the county at the end of the month.
