A member of the public attended the Hopland MAC meeting and he was here to report what their issues were; downtown plan, school, traffic, and Flow Kana spoke about their latest acquisition of the Solar Living Institute and working on ways to bring more people and tourism to Hopland. Julie Golden is chair of Hopland MAC, Mitch Franklin is Hopland Fire Chief. It was suggested that the MACs of Mendocino County increase their coordination.

The site zoned I1 (Industrial) violations were noted in 2007, but none currently upon this inspection. I1 allows a caretaker unit, and the business has as current business license. Supervisor Browne suggested that the MAC send a letter to supervisors McGowan, Haschak because they are representatives to the Northcoast Railroad Authority and Boyd has been tasked with sending this letter due to concerns that there might be violations relative to the railroad easement.

Other topics discussed included fire observation cameras, sirens, debri removal, hazardous tree removal, and other grant funded fire safety projects being pursued and/or implemented by the county. MCOG Mendocino County Organization of Governments is working on a grant to inventory all the single access routes to residential areas within the county. Redwood Valley Water Project to repair water district damage is in the design phase, with construction scheduled to start this fall under the administration of the Department of Transportation. The Mendocino Fire Safe Council has two chippers. North Coast Opportunities has provided $8000 grant to the Mendocino Fire Safe Council to research a permanent chipper program in the county. Issues to be dealt with include insurance, training, siting, operations, and other costs. Regarding the Potter Valley Water Project PVWP Janet Pauli and Carre Brown are the the negotiators for the 5 agency consortium. The agency provided $50-$100,000 to each in funding. A notice of intent to undertake the PVWP operations is due to the FERC Federal Energy Regulatory Commission in early July. PGE had stopped all of their studies ($11 million) so they are now incomplete.

Development Review Subcommittee: Alex, Debra, and Marybeth Much discussion of various permit projects Debra expressed concern with being responsive to the many permits forwarded from the county and requested to withdraw from the sub committee and Jini Reynolds joined the committee in her stead. Many of the permit and variance requests deal with cannabis, especially setback requirements and most MAC members are concerned with amount of time these take when very few members of the public are interested. Additionally, county turnaround times for comments often conflict with MAC meeting dates (for example the MAC will not be meeting in July and August this summer). Carre and Brent expressed concerns about any delays of projects that result in customer complaints. Therefore, the MAC has tasked a Development Review Subcommittee with continuing to monitor referrals from the county and highlighting to all MAC members if in their view particular projects might require a special MAC meetings (for public notice). motioned to approve. seconded the motion.
