Sierra County Board of Supervisors....

1/3/2019

SIERRA COUNTY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH ADMINISTRATIVE DIRECTOR Lea Salas reported under Department Managers Reports during the Sierra County Board of Supervisors’ meeting on December 18th in Loyalton that they had their tri-annual review, and was very happy to report that both Sierra and Placer County did very well. Salas stated she was happy with the progress and said the State has noticed the progress as well. Sierra Valley Apartments have changed ownership and are planning to do renovations. She said the rumor is, they are looking at taking four units at a time to renovate, and residents would be displaced as far away as Reno. Salas said they are trying to mitigate problems for people receiving services, medically fragile, or those with In Home Supportive Services. She said she didn’t anticipate this happening until summer and is hoping to have a discussion with the new owners. Supervisor Peter Huebner has had some phone calls from constituents on this problem. Supervisor Lee Adams asked if there were any vacant apartments residents could move to while theirs was getting fixed.  Lea said no it is full. He suggested bringing in trailers until they are fixed, which Salas stated they were discussing, and added they are happy that the apartments will be up to code.
Salas also wanted to thank Chairman Scott Schlefstein for working with Sierra County Behavioral Health and all the committees he served on and hoped he would continue to contribute as a citizen at large. She concluded by stating Schlefstein really made some great contributions to the committee.
Sierra County Planning Director Tim Beals also reported and talked about the   Sierra Brooks water system and vacant parcels. He said he would be making the effort to send out a letter to owners clarifying the only time residents will get a fee is when they want water service to their vacant parcel.
Beals stated the Sierra Hot Springs Public Review Period is in place and there will be a public hearing. He said his office received a couple inquiries to extend the review period because of the holidays and after talking with the applicant, they are extending the review period to end on January 25th, and the public hearing will be sometime in February.
Beals announced a cell tower would be constructed in Downieville as part of the ​first effort between Office of Emergency Services and AT&T on providing emergency communications. He stated AT&T is currently reviewing locations and is focusing on Ruby Bluff. Beals appreciated the effort made by the Board and Supervisor Lee Adams with RCRC who reached out to those agencies and applied pressure.
He reported that Sierra Pacific Industries (SPI) has requested the ability to terminate a bond securing the sidewalks for the business park in Loyalton now owned by American Renewable Power (ARP).  Beals said it was an interesting question that SPI still owned the bond but not the property. He stated he would be having a meeting with ARP to see if it could take responsibility of the bond or forfeit the requirement for the bond.
