Lassen County Board of Supervisors November 10, 2026

The Lassen County Board of Supervisors meeting on November 10, 2026 included several public-safety and funding items. The Sheriff’s Office presented a $29,576 California State Parks Off-Highway Vehicle grant for patrol and related activities, including cold-weather gear and training; the Board considered the resolution to receive the funds, and the transcript indicates a call for votes but does not clearly capture the result. CalFire reported fuel-reduction work supported by a grant, including 317 acres treated using a county excavator, and described plans to staff five engines year-round. Supervisors also reviewed the first-quarter budget report: the county had spent about 18.5% of its budget with 33% of the fiscal year elapsed, while some departments were over budget in certain areas. An intergovernmental agreement concerning transfer of public funds was deferred.

The Board considered a resolution to initiate an application to LAFCO to form the Herlong Recreation and Park District, and a motion was made to approve the application, plan for services, and five-year financial plan. The proponents described a 40-acre lease, anticipated outside funding and grants, and stated there would be no county financial impact; the transcript does not capture the final vote. The Board also introduced an ordinance allowing electronic campaign-disclosure filings, waived the first reading, and continued the matter to November 17 for adoption. No major contract award or purchase approval was identified.
