County supervisors unanimously approved the UC Cooperative Extension budget (budget number 6131). Matthew Barnes, county director for UC Cooperative Extension, said the plan largely mirrors last year’s request and adds funding for upgrades to the county 4‑H camp and educational programming.

Matthew Barnes, county director for the University of California Cooperative Extension, presented the UC Cooperative Extension budget and described programs the extension houses under a cooperative agreement with Lake County, including the county 4‑H program and Master Gardener outreach. “This year’s budget, not too many changes from the last,” Barnes said, adding that a special department expense is planned to improve the 4‑H camp educational experience.

After a brief round of board questions on a vehicle line item, Supervisor Swat moved to approve the extension budget (budget number 6131); the motion was seconded and carried unanimously.

The approval covers the UC Cooperative Extension’s routine program operations and the earmarked special‑department expense intended for camp improvements. No separate amendments to the extension budget were recorded during the meeting.

The board did not schedule further hearings on this item and moved on to water‑resources budget units.
