Board approves election fee transfer, inmate medical-authority, treasurer adviser contract, fairgrounds temporary hire and multiple appointments
Summary
At its April 28 special meeting the Plumas County Board of Supervisors approved a $26,623.81 supplemental budget transfer for election fees, a resolution authorizing up to $300,000 for inmate medical bills, a treasurer contract not to exceed $150,000, a temporary fairgrounds hire, and several local appointments.
The Plumas County Board of Supervisors voted on multiple administrative and budget items during its special meeting on April 28.
Consent: The board approved a supplemental budget transfer of $26,623.81 to cover election fees related to the November 5, 2025 uniform district election. The measure passed on a roll-call vote designating the transfer and authorizing payment of election fees.
Inmate medical bills: The board approved a resolution authorizing the sheriff to pay certain inmate hospital bills with funding from jail medical services and community corrections partnership accounts. The authorization was described as "not to exceed $300,000" and was approved following discussion of inmate medical service populations and potential Medi-Cal reimbursement changes.
Treasurer agreement: The board approved an agreement delegating investment-adviser services to Chandler Asset Management (presented as "Chandler Asset Management" in the agenda) effective 04/28/2026, with a not-to-exceed amount of $150,000 charged to the general fund and included in the 2025-26 budget. Treasurer Julie White told the board the change aims to improve geographic fit, responsiveness and cost basis points compared with the larger prior adviser.
Fairgrounds staffing: The board authorized the Plumas County Fairgrounds to recruit and hire an extra help office assistant to cover operational needs during the fair and while the fair manager position is filled. The item was presented as an unbudgeted request that may require a 4/5 vote for additional funding if needed; the board approved moving forward.
Appointments: The board approved multiple appointments including Valerie Flanagan to the Quincy Design Review Committee, Dean Lewis to the Quincy Design Review Committee (agenda text clarified to omit a specific nominator), Christina Rogers, Britney Wade and Peter Hoffman to the Greenhorn Community Services District, and Supervisor Hall as the board's representative to the Treasury Oversight Committee.
No other formal actions were reported from closed session. Roll-call votes were recorded on the consent and action items; the board proceeded with its agenda after each approval.
