Madera County Board of Supervisors regular meeting, October 20, 2026. The board approved the consent calendar 5–0 and, following a public hearing, approved a negative declaration and tentative cancellation of Williamson Act contract 2479C-77 for Star Farms LLC; the stated cancellation valuation was $200,925. No contract award, solicitation, vendor selection, or purchasing approval was identified. Supervisors reported that construction had begun on Riverstone Fire Station 6, a 9,000-square-foot, three-bay facility expected to take about a year, but no project cost or procurement action was discussed at this meeting.

Public commenters raised concerns about the county-owned water system serving approximately 50 households in Suma Hills, including a broken backup generator, past charges of $650,000 to residents, and a proposed $3 million connection; they asked the county to fund repairs, improve financial transparency, and participate in connection discussions. Other comments urged the board to adopt protections related to federal immigration enforcement on county property; no action was taken on those requests. Item 8A was withdrawn from the agenda. The transcript’s account of reportable closed-session action is garbled, so its details cannot be stated reliably.
