Board approves amended Feather River Forest LLC agreement for North Yuba fuels project
Summary
Supervisors approved a budget increase and 36-month extension to a contract with Feather River Forest LLC to advance the North Yuba fuels reduction and landscape project; the exact 'not-to-exceed' dollar amount was garbled in the transcript and is noted as unclear.
The Sierra County Board approved an amendment to a 2023 agreement with Feather River Forest LLC to support the North Yuba fuels-reduction and landscape project, extending the contract term and increasing the budget for the next phase.
Public Works staff described the work as part of the North Yuba partnership (the second phase) and said it will focus on fuels-reduction, parking and project implementation in the Loganville area and west of Sierra City. Staff said this is an important effort to protect communities by reducing hazardous fuels.
The transcript records the board’s motion to increase the contract budget and extend the term by 36 months, and the board approved the amendment by roll-call vote. The specific 'not to exceed' amount recorded in the transcript is garbled and not legible; staff should provide the precise budget figure in the contract file and subsequent communications.
Staff said the work will implement the county’s earlier planning and funding for North Yuba partnership operations and that the project is now moving to construction/implementation stages for the Loganville area.
