During a recent government meeting, officials highlighted a critical resolution aimed at addressing the ongoing insurance crisis in the county. Agenda item number six called for the state to declare a state of emergency due to the significant reduction in insurance options available to homeowners and businesses. This lack of coverage has left many residents at risk of catastrophic loss, prompting the resolution to urge immediate state action to stabilize California's insurance marketplace.
In addition to the insurance resolution, the meeting also discussed the introduction of mobile health clinics, with two clinics set to serve the greater areas and a third designated for the Needles and Havasu Landing region. This initiative aims to enhance healthcare accessibility for residents.
Furthermore, attendees were informed about the new Global Entry screening services now available at San Bernardino International Airport. This development is expected to streamline the process for travelers, who previously had to travel considerable distances for their interviews.
The meeting underscored the government's commitment to addressing pressing local issues, from insurance challenges to healthcare access and travel convenience.
