Loyalton asks Sierra County to lead FEMA flood‑map outreach; county staff to schedule local workshops
Summary
City of Loyalton requested the county move forward with public workshops explaining FEMA flood‑mapping processes; county department manager volunteered to lead workshops at Loyalton City Hall and city contact Jerry Jerrow will coordinate dates.
Representatives from the City of Loyalton asked the Sierra County Board of Supervisors to proceed with public outreach on pending FEMA flood‑map updates, saying previous attempts to coordinate dates with county staff did not result in a meeting.
Brandon, Sierra County’s department manager for the applicable division, told the board he would lead the workshops and recommended holding events at Loyalton City Hall to provide laptops, maps and posters so staff can answer residents’ questions. City contact Jerry Jerrow was identified as the liaison to pick possible dates. Brandon asked the city to choose dates so county staff can finalize logistics.
The board noted that the outreach is informational rather than a formal public hearing and encouraged coordination between the city and county to ensure the workshops meet the community’s needs.
Next step: Brandon will reach back out to the City of Loyalton once the city provides potential dates and the county will schedule and publicize the workshops.
