Summary

Lake County approved an amended and restated joint exercise of powers agreement to join a regional housing authority with several neighboring counties and cities; Social Services Director Rachel Dolman Pson asked the board to approve the agreement without county-council proposed edits to avoid delays.

The Lake County Board of Supervisors approved an amended and restated joint exercise of powers agreement (JPA) among Sutter, Nevada, Yuba, Kousa and Lake counties and the cities included in the document to create a regional housing authority. The board authorized the chair to sign the agreement as amended during the meeting.

Rachel Dolman Pson, Social Services Director, said the Lake County Housing Commission is transferring to the regional housing authority and that board approval of the JPA is the next step. She asked the board to approve the version on the agenda without county-council proposed changes, saying approving a different version than other member agencies had already considered could cause delays.

County Council told the board the final action should be recorded "as amended" to reflect the changes Director Dolman Pson requested. After no questions from board members and no public comment, a supervisor moved to approve the amended and restated JPA and authorize the chair to sign; the motion carried and the transcript records the vote as 5-0.

The agreement as approved moves the county forward in joining a multijurisdictional regional housing authority; specific implementation steps, timelines, or any fiscal impacts were not detailed on the record.
