Weekly Update #6 - February 8, 2022

Posted on February 8, 2022 at 7:45 PM Comments comments ()

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

Posted on February 1, 2022 at 7:35 PM Comments comments ()

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.

Weekly Update #4 - January 25, 2022

Posted on January 26, 2022 at 9:20 PM Comments comments ()
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 interest you.

You might remember that I recorded some information as an advocate for the Blue Zone Project in Mendocino County unfortunately it was too dark so this week I Re-recorded the info last week. Which is a little funny because I forgot what I said! But that's ok because I am sure it was basically the same ;) Walk, be active, get involved https://mec.bluezonesproject.com/home

At the Library Advisory Board we heard discussion on the outcomes of the A87 allocation costs which has now been resolved and discussion on the upcoming need for a renewal tax. Have you ever wondered what is happening with the Libraries throughout the County or been interested in getting more involved. https://www.mendolibrary.org/about/library-advisory-board/lab-agendas-and-minutes

Every Thursday morning I start my day with a Zoom meeting I call Coffee and Conversation, this week we discussed cannabis relationships with the government, the homeless trash program, graffiti and the fetanyl issues in our community. If you would like to join in a round table conversation this is a great place to do that. You can join me every Thursday morning from 7:15-7:45a  

Monthly I host a meeting called Mendocino Business and Government Leaders - the major topics were testing for employers, how do we continue to support businesses through variants because we know this isn’t the end of Covid. Funding is an issue for businesses that are trying to stay open while employees have to call out sick. 
MSWMA - meeting postponed to the next Thursday due to improper noticing, member of the public was present to discuss illegal  dumping. 
Thursday afternoon I met with MCAVN to hear about the projects they are currently working on and the challenges they were having getting paid by some County departments. Fortunately there was a large contract on for the following agenda so that was resolved for now. Although contracts are an ongoing issue, which is why the General Government Committee takes the time to review each departments contracts. 

It took a while to coordinate but we finally had a City of Ukiah and County Parks Meeting about Low Gap Park and the Vichy Crossing at the Russian River. These are great opportunities for the City and County to collaborate improvement and programming strategies. I feel like this is a good time to remind everyone that programming works. If we have people using the parks, paying the rental fees and connecting with the community people don’t get up to mischief. So please join the Ukiah Valley Trail Group on a trail day and most importantly get out there and enjoy our parks. 
I also attended the North Coast Resource Partnership Quarterly Meeting. I’m the alternate but it is good to hear the projects they are working on and meet the other folks that are involved. If you are looking for more info on the North Coast Resource Partnership they have a beautiful website, check it out: https://northcoastresourcepartnership.org/

I did three rounds of homeless trash pick up from the Brush Street Triangle. I’m also getting a lot more interest from the community. If you’d like to help please reach out to me. My contact info is below.

Over the weekend I spent time studying the agenda and on Saturday afternoon I went to Todd Grove Park to meet with a couple of constituents about some challenges that they are having with a County department. These types of conversations give me opportunities to think about how  we can become more transparent and proactive as an agency.

The NCRA transition to the Great Redwood Trail Agency will open up more opportunities for access, environmental repair and fish access through collaboration. It’s a very exciting project to be a part of. 
I attended my first NACO Arts & Culture Commission, we heard about upcoming grant opportunities and discussed how the arts bring economic development to our communities. 
I listened in to the Stepping up Initiative, I have to say that from a year ago to where we are today I am so proud of this group and the increased collaboration. Keep going!!!
I attended a webinar about navigating new laws and protocols around public meetings and the Brown Act, I also have Brown Act Training next week. 

On Monday night I had an SEIU check in with the members. If you would like to discuss relevant topics I’m happy to hop on a Zoom or attend a meeting. Just let me know. 

In case you were wondering the kind of constituent concerns I heard about this week the topics were around cannabis, child protective services, noise ordinances, and housing/home ownership. I am always happy to hear your thoughts please reach out! [email protected] or text me at 707-391-3664 and of course join me on Thursday mornings at 7:15a-7:45a Zoom Meeting ID 7079548230 Password LOCAL707

Darcie has been well respected as a level headed leader for decades in our community and has the ability to work with Department heads across the agency for increased collaboration and transparency.

2022 Weekly Update #3 - January 18, 2022

Posted on January 18, 2022 at 11:50 PM Comments comments ()
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 interest you. 

The housing conversation in Mendocino County is ongoing. I attended the Inland HAT meeting and among the topics discussed were the Infrastructure barriers to developing housing, the recreation of a County water agency will help with this but sewage is also an issue. We need to survey other areas and seek solutions, at the end of the day there needs to be a lot more communication. Additionally a very important topic of the “Missing middle” as some people call it or “workforce housing” meaning people that work and earn to much to receive subsidies but don’t have executive level jobs that the current market seems to favor. Again this is something being discussed not only in Mendocino County but across California. I’m wondering if you’ve heard of any innovative solutions elsewhere?

I worked at the County Public Health Vaccine clinic at the fairgrounds on Friday. It was MUCH slower than last week. If you have a friend that hasn’t gotten a booster or is ready to get the vaccine please have them visit MyTurn.Ca.Gov to schedule an appointment. 

Over the weekend I donated some couches to to the residents of the housing program at Building Bridges. They’ve been working hard to get individuals in to stable housing and sometimes a bed or a couch is really helpful. I’d like to encourage you to reach out to them if you are able and see if they have needs for furniture or other household donations. Here is the website: https://redwoodcommunityservices.org/homelessservices

Oh my goodness when I went to Lucky for the grocery pick up I was surprised by 10 huge boxes of hand sanitizer to distribute. I took some to the Ukiah Senior Center, Hope Ministries, Building Bridges and the Ukiah Food Bank. 

I started to roll out the Homeless trash program. I found someone to assist me with the map. I created a couple of care packages with some snacks and bags and brought them to a couple of camp sites and I did get one bag of trash on my first day. Next steps are to figure out a funding source for the transfer station fees, get volunteers and do out reach to the homeless service providers to get the word out to the streets. 


Did you know that Mendocino County has its own YouTube page where you can watch live streaming meetings or the replay at your convenience: 
Coastal Permit Administrator: https://youtu.be/0HqyuEn1OpY
Archeological Committee: https://youtu.be/FE5SiWmtwMo
^ Here are some of the meetings from this week. 

I took a walk in the beautiful sunshine with my granddaughter while listening to the COC Meeting.  
They discussed the update to the Homeless Strategic Plan, Coordinated entry and the Point in Time Count as well as whether or not a safe parking proposal should be brought forward. You can watch the video here: 

I like to end these posts by reminding you that I meet on Zoom every Thursday morning at 7:15a. The Meeting ID is 7079548230 and the password is LOCAL707, that is a great place to come and have me ask your questions. I am of course also happy to have coffee or a phone call. My number is 707-391-3664 feel free to text me to schedule an appointment.

Hi! I’m Mo Mulheren, your Second District Supervisor. Each week I put out an email and blog about some of the things I’ve been working on during the week. If you are interested in learning more you are always welcome to call me at 707-391-3664 or email me at [email protected] . I also have a Zoom meeting each Thursday at 7:15a-7:45a the Meeting ID is 7079548230 and the password is LOCAL707. I’m always happy to chat about whatever is on your mind. 

At this month’s Second District Meeting with the City of Ukiah we discussed how the vaccination and testing mandates have fiscal impacts on the cities, the monthly calls with the City Managers offices from each of the four cities and the Executive Office are ongoing and successful and the City Manager focus group about the Strategic Plan was also a great opportunity for collaboration. The City and the County planning departments need to be working together to meet our housing needs. Mayor Brown said he’d be happy to work on picking up homeless trash as we start our new program. The City, UPD, Probation and MCSO are all working together to come up with a coordinated effort to combat graffiti. There are multiple possibilities for funding repairs of City streets that will be coming to the City Council soon. There are a few plans for improving the flow of the new streetscape and the updated hours of the City owned Parking lots have been successful. For more information about the City of Ukiah please make sure to follow the official City of Ukiah Facebook page or visit their website.

Are you wondering what kind of questions people call me with? This week I did constituent support regarding cannabis, housing, a family member with substance abuse issues, illegal dumping collection, and more housing issues including trying to seek information from the Millcreek Apartments going in near the Truck Stop and questions about Live Oak. 

I attended a webinar about Talent Development 
In order to accelerate development that we should include the following percentages:
70% learn by doing or on the job training
20% on coaching 
10% outside development and education 
After the pandemic its important to remember that:
Transition has been difficult for new hires 
Remote work is a challenge for human interactions 
Expansion of training opportunities 
Meeting people where they are with their abilities to work remotely, or in some cases not 
“Stay Interviews” at each anniversary (this sounds great and something we should implement)

MTA is continuing to have ongoing staffing issues, if it continues some routes may need to be reduced. If you know anyone looking for a job please encourage them to apply! https://mendocinotransit.org

I attended a webinar offered by CALAFCO called The Property Tax Elements of Jurisdictional Changes and Fiscal Reviews. They discussed the challenges of not having updated tax rolls to collect property taxes especially when an annexation occurs and how important it is for LAFCO boards to track and follow the work of County Tax Collectors and Auditors. It was very interesting. 

I had a couple of additional meetings for the CEO/CAO Ad Hoc as well as the Mental Health Data Ad Hoc and hope that those will both be coming forward as agenda items in the very near future. 

I spent Tuesday morning cleaning up trash and making calls about getting the homeless trash program started. Next step is to develop a map and get it out in the community. The expense at the transfer station was actually less than what I thought it was going to be but there is still more data to collect regarding time spent and costs. More to come on this! 

There are a lot of different things I do day to day. That’s one of the best parts of serving your community in this role. Please know that you should contact me if you have questions, if I don’t have the answers I can direct you or try to find them for you. Thanks for reading! Have a great day!

Hello Mendo!!
I am Mo. The Second District Supervisor for Mendocino County.
Each week I use the internet to provide you an update of what I am working on, this is not an exhaustive list rather an opportunity for you to comment or ask questions about a particular topic that may interest you and catch a glimpse of how one of the five Supervisors works on a variety of topics during any given week. I post this to my website at MaureenMulheren.Com, on Facebook and I would be happy to email it to you directly to your inbox. Please just let me know by emailing me at [email protected] and put "Add to email" in the subject line.

Every Thursday morning I start my day with something I call Coffee and Conversation. This is an opportunity to talk about whatever is on your mind. Sometimes no one comes sometimes 10 people come and we talk about everything from Cannabis to Mental Health, Homelessness, Economic Development and housing. Bring your thoughts! Every Thursday morning 7:15am - 7:45 am on Zoom. Meeting ID 7079548230 Password LOCAL707 

This week I took a tour with Danielle at the United Disaster Relief of Northern California new facility on Airport Park Boulevard in Ukiah. They provide support for fire victims, the pandemic and other disasters. They serve the entire County from their new headquarters in Ukiah and it would be great to see if we can find a way to create some sustainable funding in addition to the grants they receive. If you would like to make a donation you can mail it to NCO their fiscal sponsor: https://www.ncoinc.org/fs/united-disaster-relief/

This year I am working on streamlining this update. I hope you enjoy and have a great day!

Weekly Update #52 December 28, 2021

Hello Mendo!!
I am Mo. The Second District Supervisor for Mendocino County.
Each week I use the internet to provide you an update of what I am working on, this is not an exhaustive list rather an opportunity for you to comment or ask questions about a particular topic that may interest you and catch a glimpse of how one of the five Supervisors works on a variety of topics during any given week. I post this to my website at MaureenMulheren.Com, on Facebook and I would be happy to email it to you directly to your inbox. Please just let me know by emailing me at [email protected] and put "Add to email" in the subject line.

The last two weeks of the year are pretty light for meetings, I’ve been working on planning for next year and reviewing what the heck happened on my 2021. And on the agenda item for the CEO/CAO discussion with the Board. 

I spent several days last week at the Ukiah Valley Christmas Effort Warehouse. I’ve been volunteering with the Christmas Effort since I was in high school (yes, over 20 years ago) and this year my daughter and granddaughter helped out a lot. Kasie (my oldest daughter) has been volunteering since she was old enough to walk, but this year was Teagans first year and she can’t even walk yet! There are a lot of tasks that are helpful and I highly recommend them if you would like to donate your time or your money during the holiday season. The easiest way to get in to contact with them is to follow them on Facebook and they will make an announcement around October that you should be receiving a letter from the school to sign up. Then in December they will announce where the warehouse is so you can wrap and “shop” for the gifts for the families. They get a box of presents and a box with Christmas dinner. Until next year! 

Hope to see you all Thursday  morning for my last Coffee and Conversation of the year! Zoom ID 7079548230 Password LOCAL707 7:15a-7:45a

I don’t know how I missed it but I have to tell you I was able to attend the Emerald Cup Harvest Ball on Sunday the 12th for my first time. It was 
Nice to hear the speakers sharing about their experiences with legalization and of course to see some Mendo farms representing our local brands. 

On Wednesday Supervisor Gjerde and I started the ad hoc discussion about a CEO/CAO model for Mendocino County. We have had both in Mendo. The differences are really very minimal but the conversation involves around how much authority the Board of Supervisors allows the position to have and which things they play a more active role in. I would love to hear more about what the community thinks about this so I would love to see you at my Thursday morning Zoom to discuss.

Every Thursday  morning I start my day with Coffee and Conversation on Zoom. You can join at 7:15am the Meeting ID is 7079548230 and the password is LOCAL707
We continue to have the Mendocino Government and Business Leaders meeting monthly. This is local electeds and staff from the four cities and the County of Mendocino. Dr Coren was in the meeting so we could discuss the current covid rates and how businesses should prepare in advance for mask protests. Katrina from the Greater Ukiah Business and Tourism Alliance with guidance from UPD and the City of Ukiah put together an information sheet for businesses. If you’d like more information please email Katrina at [email protected]
We had our last meeting of the MSWMA. In case you haven’t read my other reports we have an Interim Director, Tom Varga that is looking for additional funding and ways to improve the organization and we will soon go out for a search to find a new Director. 
We have a quarterly RRWA/RRWQCB Lunch meeting. We receive an update on everything that’s happening in the Russian River Watershed Association. 
Thursday was a very important day it was the Crisis Residential Treatment opening tour. Although the licensing is not yet complete the construction is done. This will be an opportunity for our local residents to have a place to stay either before or after needing a 5150 hold. They can stay for up to 30 days as a transition. It’s a home like facility. I have photos on my Facebook page @ Mo4Mendo 

Unfortunately our Workforce Alliance of the North Bay on Friday had to be cancelled due to lack of quorum. 
My Planning Commissioner has to resign so on Friday I met with a potential candidate. 

On Saturday we had the fifth annual Santa Stomp. It’s just a fun walk on the Great Redwood Trail we do near Christmas. We wear ugly Sweaters. Hope you will join us next year! 

On Monday I did my second annual Holiday Food Drive. I do a pantry food drive twice a year for my Birthday in June and right before Christmas. The Ukiah Food Bank clients love the variety that food drives offer. It’s great that they have the funds to buy the staples but these extra items bring more variety to the offerings that they have. If you’d like to participate just send me an email or Facebook message. I go to the food bank a couple of times a week so I’m always happy to drop something off for you. You just need to put it on your porch and I’ll come and grab it. 

Tuesday afternoon I had a meeting with Martin Mileck from Cold Creek Compost about upcoming State regulations and how we can incorporate more Mixed Waste Organics in to our waste stream. I love talking trash!

I hope you all are having a great week. I can’t believe we have one more week of this year!

On Wednesday I attended the High Performance Organization Meeting. One of the Principles of Office of the Board of Supervisors is to "Be responsible for professional growth by participating in educational conferences, workshops, and training sessions offered by local and State organizations." Its really important to me that me to educate myself to work to improve my leadership skills and that of our organization. 
At our MTA meeting I asked about adding an additional bus to Sonoma County, the Team assures me that as soon as there is enough staff they will be bringing back as many routes as possible. 

Every Thursday morning I start my day with something that I call Coffee and Conversation. This is a 30 minute Zoom meeting so that people can come and talk to me and share their thoughts on County issues. You are welcome to join my Zoom Meeting ID is 7079548230 and Password LOCAL707
Each month the Parks Ad Hoc meets, this month we were discussing how we could partner with other agencies or non-profits for maintenance and what the future budget might look like. 
The EDFC Board Meeting met and discussed their loan portfolio and introduced their new team member Stacey Caico. There have been a lot of changes with EDFC and the team, Robert Gernert is doing quite well with the loan portfolio and I'm personally excited to have Stacey on board. 
As Supervisor McGourty was traveling and I am the alternate I attended the IWPC Closed Session on Thursday evening. 

Friday morning I had the opportunity to Volunteer at the Vaccine Clinic at the Fairgrounds. Someone mentioned to me that there wasn't enough publicity about where to get a vaccine. You can use MyTurn.Gov and of course visit the County Website at WWW.MendocinoCounty.Org and hit COVID at the top to find the vaccine clinics and testing opportunities 
Friday afternoon I went to the MCAFD & Ad Hoc meeting at the fire house in Anderson Valley, we discussed future funding opportunities and the upcoming budget item for equipment purchased with the PG&E Funds

In case you missed it Santa came to town on Saturday!! I attended Santa and Sirens at City Hall with my daughter Kasie and granddaughter, Teagan. I'll let you in on a secret my Dad, Jim Mulheren, was playing Santa. It was so fun to see the children's faces to see Santa and hear the sirens on the Ukiah Police vehicles and Fire engines.

In the afternoon I attended the First 5 hybrid meeting virtually. One exciting announcement is that they have moved forward with a communications plan to reach more parents of children 0-5 to tell them about the work that they do. 

The rest of the afternoon and evening were spent trying to get to the bottom of the maskless riots that were happening in local businesses over the weekend. I have no idea why people chose to do this, the mask mandates are not the "fault" of the businesses and they are meant to keep everyone safe. On Wednesday the State of California will go back to masking indoors in all Counties. No one likes wearing masks but consistency across the State will make it easier for everyone to follow the rules.

Weekly Update #49 - December 7, 2021

Posted on December 7, 2021 at 11:25 PM Comments comments ()
Hi friends! As you know I took a week off from my update as I was out of town attending the California Association of Counties meeting in Monterey. As I work to wrap up my first year as a Supervisor I think about the work I'm doing and what it looks like next year. On a daily basis it can feel like we aren't getting much done but when I go back and review our accomplishments I'm grateful for the opportunity to serve my community. The CSAC Conference was a great opportunity to network and brainstorm strategies that can help Mendocino County. 

I hope you had a great Thanksgiving !!!
I got to spend time with my family in Potter Valley. I'm always thankful that my family lives within 20 miles of me. Connecting with your family is very important to our emotional and behavioral mental health. I fortunately get to see my family on a monthly or weekly basis and that is a blessing that I don't take lightly. 

Please do not forget that November 26th is Native American Heritage Day.
“The United States of America was founded on an idea: that all of us are created equal and deserve equal treatment, equal dignity, and equal opportunity throughout our lives. Throughout our history—though we have always strived to live up to that idea and have never walked away from it—the fact remains that we have fallen short many times. Far too often in our founding era and in the centuries since, the promise of our Nation has been denied to Native Americans who have lived on this land since time immemorial. “Despite a painful history marked by unjust Federal policies of assimilation and termination, American Indian and Alaska Native peoples have persevered. During National Native American Heritage Month, we celebrate the countless contributions of Native peoples past and present, honor the influence they have had on the advancement of our Nation, and recommit ourselves to upholding trust and treaty responsibilities, strengthening Tribal sovereignty, and advancing Tribal self-determination… 
“I urge all Americans, as well as their elected representatives at the Federal, State, and local levels, to observe this month with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities, and to celebrate November 26, 2021, as Native American Heritage Day.”

Over the weekend my daughter and I did some basic holiday stuff we went to get a Christmas Tree from the Redwood Valley/Calpella Fire Department and visited the new Axe throwing business in Downtown Ukiah. I've posted some photos on my Mo4Mendo Facebook page just for fun. 

My first day at the CSAC meeting was spent attending the Women's Leadership Business Meeting and Forum Workshop. 

I thought it would be helpful to know which meetings I attended during the week that I was in Monterey for the CSAC Cconference. On Tuesday I attended the CSAC Policy Committee on Agriculture, Environment and Natural Resources before I needed to leave to join the BOS Special Closed Session. In the afternoon I attended the Opening Session; Jackie Freiberg delivered a key note address on inspiring a culture of innovation and change. She is a Certified Dare to Lead Facilitator. I am going to continue to push Mendocino County to get out of comfort zone to try new things. I know this is challenging when people have done things one way for decades. We can't fear making changes that can benefit our team and our community. I also attended the CSAC Health and Human Services Policy Committee to hear an update about how Federal and State dollars are being used. After the policy meetings and workshops there was an Exhibit Hall open. I went to look at some vendors that the County could possibly partner with. 

On Wednesday morning we had a New Supervisors Reunion breakfast. Earlier in the year we had meetings via Zoom so it was great to see everyone in person, the networking that we are able to do at conferences is really invaluable. I checked with Supervisors Haschak and Williams to see which meetings they were going to so we could divide and conquer if you will, and I ended up attending the Workshop on Navigating Opportunities for Counties to Support Children and Families. They spoke a lot about the struggle of kids in Foster Care and how we can work to improve parental and familial relationships. The CSAC County Round Table was very valuable. Each County got up and announced their most challenging topic and then you were invited to move to that table to discuss the issue. I went to the Humboldt County table as they are having some interesting things happening with their Auditor. There were several Auditors and CPAs that joined the table as well as other neighboring counties. Its always valuable to hear what other counties have going on. There was a great workshop in the afternoon called "Drama in the Board Room- Tips and Techniques to Foster better Communication and Encourage Civility in the Board Room" this was a fun role playing and brainstorming session. After that I went to the Rural Caucus meeting. 

I got up bright and early on Thursday morning to start a 3 mile "Fun Run" on the Coastal trail in Monterey. Assistant CEO Angle and Supervisor Haschak also made the run. It was so beautiful I wanted to stop and take a picture every 50 feet, I had a great time. After the run there was a CSAC Awards breakfast and it was great to hear about the work that electeds and their teams are doing across the State. After breakfast I went to the Administration of Justice Policy Committee to discuss a successful shifting intimate partner violence programming as well as the struggles with Felony Incompetent to Stand Trial across the State. After that meeting I attended the luncheon and the Election of the new CSAC Officers, look forward to sharing the photo of the Supervisors soon. I did attend the CSAC Board of Directors Meeting before the installation of the CSAC Officers. 

On Friday morning I got up so I could try and head home to beat traffic. Over the weekend we had the Ukiah Parade of Lights which I have been helping organize for the last five years. I needed to make sure I was back on time to hang no parking signs for the parade route. 

In case you missed it we had an awesome Ukiah Parade of Lights this year. The businesses, non-profits and families are all stars for entering and making it a great show for the community. I will attach a video I have from the Ukiah Valley Networking Agency Facebook that my youngest daughter took, I hope you enjoy and if you are reading this I really need help with volunteers next year!! https://fb.watch/9LIpUfP1pT/

Sunday I got to walk with my daughter and grand-daughter to go and remove the no parking signs. I love that my whole family gets involved in volunteer work. 

We had a regularly scheduled meeting with LAFCO - Ukiah Valley Fire District Annexation complete and the Board of Equalization has provided confirmation that they are completing the project. In the afternoon I had a debrief of the Ukiah Parade of Lights and tree lighting ceremony at Alex Thomas Plaza and how to improve for next year. We got a little bit of rain but I did interviews for the Adventist Health Blue Zones project. I will share that video when it comes out.
