One of the duties of a County Supervisor is to represent the County on various boards, committees, and commissions. Some of these assignments are on internal committees but most are with external agencies and organizations. In addition, Yuba County Supervisors also serve on the Board of Directors of the Yuba Water Agency and participate in Yuba Water-related committees and organizations. We approved county-related committee assignments at our meeting on Tuesday. Here is a blog post about my assignments and you can find assignments for the full board here.
I had a Sacramento Area Council of Governments (SACOG) board meeting on Thursday morning in Sacramento (agenda) and a Yuba Sutter Transit Board meeting on Thursday afternoon (agenda). While I served as an alternate to the Yuba Sutter Transit board during my first term, this is my first time serving as one of the two representatives on the board from Yuba County. I look forward to advocating for improved transit service in the 4th District and our region.
Additional meetings on my calendar included a touch-base lunch with Yuba County community development, a touch-base lunch with a few current and previous Yuba Sutter elected officials, a meeting with the Karlshoej family, a meeting with Blue Zones Yuba Sutter, and a Northern California Water Agency (NCWA) strategic planning session.
There was a Wheatland City Council meeting on Tuesday at 6 pm (agenda) that may contain items of interest to Wheatland residents and an OPUD Board of Directors meeting on Thursday at 7 pm (agenda) that may contain items of interest to Plumas Lake residents.
On Saturday, I was honored to participate in the 26th Annual Yuba-Sutter march to honor Dr. MLK Jr.
Looking ahead to this week
Tuesday is a Yuba Water Agency board of directors meeting. Here are a few highlights from the agenda:

I have my first Yuba Sutter Arts & Culture Board meeting this week. It’s one of the new committees that I’m assigned to this year. The other is Yuba Sutter Transit. There are several other meetings on my calendar, including setting the agenda for the next board of supervisors meeting, discussing the Plumas Lake interchange project with Hard Rock, a webinar from RCRC on navigating the congressionally directed spending process to secure funding for rural counties, and a California Arts Council meeting hosted by Yuba Sutter Arts & Culture.
I plan to attend the PLESD Public Input Session at Rio Del Oro on Thursday at 6 pm.
