THE MOTION to introduce and waive the first reading on an ordinance amending Part 15 of the Sierra County Code implementing regulations for Short-Term Rentals in Sierra County was passed unanimously during the Board of Supervisors’ meeting on October 4th. This is a countywide ordinance (excluding the City of Loyalton) amending the County Zoning Code setting forth a permit process, standards of operation, and other regulations to allow the use of a residence as a short-term rental (Airbnb, VRBO, etc.) as recommended by the Planning Commission. The ordinance will take effect January 1, 2023. Supervisor Lee Adams stated this was not going to make everyone happy, but felt it was a nice balance. Planning Director Tim Beals commented it would be a living document for a few years to make any necessary changes.
A FEMA update was given during the Sierra County Board of Supervisors’ meeting held October 4th. Planning Director Tim Beals announced the County finally received a letter from FEMA stating they will go back and redo maps. In 6-12 months they will be back with new maps.
A RESOLUTION OF APPRECIATION was awarded Vickie Clark upon her retirement as Director of Sierra County Dept. of Health and Social Services by the Sierra County Board of Supervisors at its regular meeting held October 4th. Her duties included administration of public assistance, child protective services, adult protective services, In Home Support Services and administration of the county Department of Public Health and administration of Department of Environmental Health. Vickie oversaw the five year County Self-Assessment for Child Welfare, served as a member of the Child Abuse Prevention Council and selflessly engaged with the community based Family Resource Center. She oversaw the operation of the Public Health Dept. during a 30-month public health emergency pandemic and did so in a manner that both protected the public health and respected the lives of all within the county. Vickie has undertaken all her professional responsibilities in a calm and cheerful manner, unflappable and without complaint and has been a valuable and extraordinary resource on any number of local emergency responses within Sierra County.
