Supervisors to get updates on tax sale, Sulphur fire recovery
The board will meet beginning at 9 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 9, 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 https://countyoflake.legistar.com/Calendar.aspx. Accompanying board documents, the agenda and archived board meeting videos also are available at that link.
In an untimed item, the board will get a report from Treasurer-Tax Collector Barbara Ringen on plans for a tax sale during the current fiscal year.
County Administrative Officer Carol Huchingson’s report to the board explains that in Fiscal Year 2016-17, Ringen completed the first tax sale of delinquent properties in several years, “which had a very positive impact on the County General Fund.”
Huchingson said she’s asked Ringen to give the board an update on her plans for another tax sale.
Also on Tuesday, in an item timed for 9:10 a.m., the board will get an update on the Sulphur fire recovery.
In other untimed items, the board will consider approving a regional letter for state budget requests for the fire-impacted counties of Lake, Mendocino, Napa and Sonoma, and will discuss the chair’s recommended 2018 committee assignments.
