SIERRA COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION APPOINTMENTS

12/30/2016

2 Comments

 
THREE PLANNING COMMISSION APPOINTMENTS were made during the Sierra County Board of Supervisors’ meeting held in Loyalton on Tuesday, December 20th. Two of the current members’ terms expire on December 31st and one was a vacancy. The Board received six timely applicants: Jenna Endres of Calpine, Liz Fisher of Downieville, Janet Baldridge of Calpine, Sharon Dobija of Sierra City, Michael Miller of Alleghany, and Michael Filippini of Loyalton. 
Board Chair Lee Adams stated Sharon Dobija withdrew her application, so there were five applicants. Supervisor Scott Schlefstein made the motion to reappoint Liz Fisher, who would like to “continue working in a place to be part of a healthy, thriving community and county,” and appoint Mike Filippini, who has “a background in public administration and education that I think provides me with skills and insights that would be useful,” and Jenna Endres who believes “land use decisions are an important part of protecting our County’s quality of life and believe my professional experience can make a positive impact on Sierra County.” 
Supervisor Paul Roen was concerned about Endres, MPA, AICP, Senior Planner in Town of Truckee Community Development Department, formerly Senior Planner, Building and Safety Division Santa Barbara County Planning and Development, being a full-time 
Planner with the City of Truckee. County Counsel stated there would be no conflict of interest as long as Endres wasn’t employed in Sierra County as a Planner. 
Motion passed for Fisher and Filippini, but failed for Endres with Supervisor Peter Huebner, Chair Adams and Supervisor Roen voting no. Supervisor Roen made the motion to appoint Janet Baldridge, whose “30 years living in the Tahoe region has made me very aware of what can happen to an area without strong, directed and controlled growth.” 
Baldridge was appointed with Supervisor Jim Beard voting no.

After the way Sierraville Lodge was treated I will no longer spend a dime on any business in your area! Not hotels, not the hot springs, not vacation rentals, not to go mountain biking, not even the gas station.

Still no Sierra Valley Lodge? I’d spend some money in your area, if so.
If not, then I’m staying away.
