Summary
The Siskiyou County Air Pollution Control District Board on Feb. 10 ratified an application to the California Air Resources Board's 2022 Climate Heat Impact Response Program for $26,413 and authorized budget setup upon award; the board said the funds could be combined with Carl Moyer funding for district projects.
The Siskiyou County Air Pollution Control District Governing Board on Feb. 10 ratified an application to the California Air Resources Board's (CARB) 2022 Climate Heat Impact Response Program for a total allocation of $26,413.
Dian Collier, the district's fiscal officer, told the board the Climate Heat Impact Response Program grant could be combined with Carl Moyer grant funding to support various district projects. The board voted to ratify the application and to authorize the county auditor to set up an interest-bearing budget account if the grant is awarded.
The motion to ratify the Siskiyou County Air Pollution Control District's CARB grant application (signed by Jim Smith on Jan. 6, 2026, as reflected in the minutes) was moved by Director Michael N. Kobseff, seconded by Director Ray Haupt, and carried with Directors Haupt, Ed Valenzuela, Nancy Ogren, Pat Vela and Kobseff voting yes; Director Juliana Lucchesi was recorded as absent. The minutes record the action as Resolution APCD 26-01.
Why it matters: CARB grant programs fund local responses to climate-driven heat impacts; combined with Carl Moyer funds, the award could support equipment replacement, outreach or other district-targeted work. The board did not specify exact projects or timelines in the minutes.
Next steps: The board authorized the auditor to establish a budget account should the award be finalized. There was no additional project-level detail or timeline included in the minutes.
