Hi I’m Mo Mulheren, the Second District Supervisor. Each week I issue a written report about some of the projects I’m working on and the meetings I attend. This is not a comprehensive list of my activities but meant to give you some ideas about topics that I am working on that might be of interest to you.
Once a month I meet with the City of Ukiah City Manager and Councilmember (and Current Mayor) Jim Brown. This is our opportunity to discuss issues that affect the Second District. Some that the County is working on and some that the City of Ukiah is working on. We talk about everything from traffic enforcement, to trash pick up and streets in Ukiah. If you have any specific questions you have I would be happy to hear from you and pass them along.
We had our RRWA Mendocino Annual Meeting. The Russian River Watershed Association spans across Mendocino and Sonoma Counties. I appreciate the Mendo staff advocating to make sure that we have equal representation as issues arise. We approved the work plan with our feedback. Our consultant West Yost is doing a good job of balancing the many varied needs of all of the agencies of this watershed. Would you like to learn more: https://www.rrwatershed.org/about/
I was happy to have FIVE people come to my Coffee and Conversation meeting this Thursday. We talked about everything from cannabis to housing and mental health. I hold this space every Thursday morning so that you can come and speak to me about whatever is on your mind. Its every Thursday from 7:15a-7:45a and the Zoom Meeting ID is 7079548230 and the Password is LOCAL707
As part of my work as a Supervisor I regularly attend workshops and meetings on Leadership. This last week I went to a Zoom meeting called Strengths-Based Leadership Building and Maintaining a Team Culture. In advance of the meeting there was a quiz that determined what are your top 5 strengths based on answering a series of questions within 10 seconds. I found the results interesting (especially the part about how people perceive my strengths as negatives). Here are the results: Positivity; You bring enthusiasm to people, groups and organizations, you can stimulate people to be more productive and hopeful, can get people excited about...., some will think you are too optimistic, others are energized to move towards excellence. Empathy;
Can sense what it feels like to be someone else, you can pick up on the pain and joy of others before they express it, People are drawn to you when they have a need or problem, you can become overwhelmed with daily issues, this is valuable because it allows the formation of close relationships. Developer;
You can see how others can move changes and grow, you love to see others make progress, the best experience in the world is to be part of other's development, others may not be interested or want to make the changes you think best, valuable because it helps you to see the potential in others. Futuristic; Fascinated by the future, see it positively, can see in detail what the future might hold, can energize yourself and others by your vision, others may dismiss you as a dreamer, valuable because your vision raises others insights. Activator; Can see how ideas can become action, want to do things now, very powerful in making things happen, may be criticized for being impatient, valuable because you generate the energy to get things done. I think that everyone should work on their personal and professional development but I specifically encourage all employees of the County to use the resources provided to you. If you aren't sure what they are please reach out to your Supervisor or HR.
On Friday morning I had a MCAFD Ad Hoc meeting in Anderson Valley. We discussed the CSA3 process through LAFCO and a potential Fire Warden position. It was a beautiful drive, as it always is. These conversations need to be ongoing and I look forward to hearing everyone's opinions on it and seeing how we can move reach compromises.
Not BOS related but I did get to Celebrate my granddaughter Teagan's 1st Birthday and my youngest daughter Andie turned 12. I love these little winter girls.
On Sunday afternoon I took a tour of JDSF with Chairman Michael Hunter from Coyote Valley Tribe. We started at the Jug Handle access point and went to Road 409 to view some of the work that has been done by loggers at JDSF a few years ago. There are two more opportunities for this tour on February 27th and 28th. The flyer is posted on my Facebook page or just text me if you'd like and I can send it to you. My cell is 707-391-3664
Monday morning we had our regularly scheduled LAFCO meeting and reviewed the workplan and budget. I know its challenging that some of these processes have taken so long. I'm hopeful that agencies will be able to coordinate with LAFCO staff to bring forward a plan to deal with future connections in the Ford Road area.
I had a meeting with Cherie Johnson regarding the CEO/CAO agenda item. I have no changes at this time other than the redline that was presented at a prior meeting and look forward to reading whatever red line versions my colleagues bring to the table.
I also had a meeting about the Depot Infrastructure project that is incomplete after several years due to funding challenges from the JCC to the local contractors. I will be working with our State leaders to hopefully get some relief to this contractors.
As always this is NOT the official Board record. I post this so that you all have the opportunity to learn what happened during the meeting without having to turn in to a full day on YouTube. Have a great day!

Weekly Update #5 - February 1, 2022

Hi I’m Mo Mulheren, the Second District Supervisor. Each week I issue a written report about some of the projects I’m working on and the meetings I attend. This is not a comprehensive list of my activities but meant to give you some ideas about topics that I am working on that might be of interest to you.
The Behavioral Health Advisory Board met and discussed updates from the Behavioral Health Director and service providers. This citizen advisory committee is imperative to making sure that there is transparency and achievable outcomes. Have you considered joining a Board or Commission? I have a vacancy in District 2 if you are interested in learning more here is a link to the website so you can see what they work on: https://www.mendocinocounty.org/government/health-and-human-services-agency/mental-health-services/mental-health-board
Every Thursday morning I have a meeting I call Coffee and Conversation. I would love to have you join me it is on Zoom at 7:15am - 7:45 am and you can hop in to the meeting and join in with whatever topic of conversation you'd like to discuss from housing to mental health to cannabis.
MSWMA- Receive update from Interim Manager on recruitment for a FT Manager, hear from community members about illegal dumping, provide a small raise to the crew in the yard
I attended a webinar called "Trail Ambassador Program Tricks and Tips for Best Practices", I think our community does have valid concerns about the Great Redwood Trail and how that is managed so learning from other communities might provide some helpful insights before its even built.
There was a meeting of the Countywide Oversight Board which consists of the County and the four incorporated cities to make sure that the Redevelopment funds that were issued are appropriately tracked.
I attended (and completed) a Brown Act & Ethics Training presented by County Counsel. Elected officials and Board members must complete that every two years.
Friday afternoon I went to the Greater Ukiah Business and Tourism Alliance Cannabis 21+ Ribbon Cutting. The more that we can normalize dispensaries as businesses in our community the better! If you haven't been to a dispensary check it out.
I usually spend Sunday afternoon and evening on agenda review, this week we had a small agenda only 563 pages I must say I love the presentations being included in advance in the agenda and I hope it continues to streamline meetings.
The majority of my day Monday was filled with Cannabis discussion on agenda items and answer questions.
