LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — The Board of Supervisors this week is set to consider the appeal of a cannabis grow, and discuss using a Northshore park as a community center during power shut-offs, continued operations of the former juvenile hall as a homeless shelter and a plan for a behavioral health treatment facility for youth.
The board will meet beginning at 9 a.m. Tuesday, Aug. 23, 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, online at https://countyoflake.legistar.com/Calendar.aspx and on the county’s Facebook page. Accompanying board documents, the agenda and archived board meeting videos also are available at that link.

At 10:30 a.m. Tuesday, the board will take up an appeal that the supervisors themselves approved filing regarding the Lake County Planning Commission’s approval last month of a major use permit and initial study for a cannabis cultivation project for Bottle Rock Farms FJA Trust, located at 9900 and 100300 Bottle Rock Road, Kelseyville.
Supervisor Bruno Sabatier had raised the matter with the board at its Aug. 2 meeting due to several violations on the property which he said contradicted the commission’s approval action based on the county’s zoning ordinance.
At 1 p.m., the board will consider a license agreement between the county of Lake and PG&E for the temporary use of a portion of Lucerne Harbor Park as a community resource center in the event of a public safety power shut-off.
In an untimed item, staff is asking the board to discuss giving possible direction regarding the continuing operations of the homeless shelter at the county’s former juvenile hall in the wake of the announcement that Elijah House is ceasing operations of the facility in September.
Also in an untimed matter, the board will hear a presentation and discuss direction regarding a request for support for a plan for a behavioral health treatment facility for youth.
The proponents are planning to submit later this month for a $16 million grant. The presentation documents do not indicate where the facility would be located.
