FLAG SALUTE – Led by Supervisor Montgomery.

 

STATEMENT OF MEETING PROCEDURES - Read by Clerk.

 

PUBLIC COMMENT – Jack Sanchez, volunteer coordinator for Save Auburn Ravine Salmon and Steelhead, requested a letter of support from the Board.  Chairman Rockholm requested the organization write a letter reflecting the request to be considered on a future agenda.  Wes Zicker, Engineering & Surveying Department, advised that on December 9, 2008 the Board took action to accept the improvements for Winchester Phase 4A as complete subject to the completion of some electrical and gas connections.  He advised that the project is complete.

 

SUPERVISOR’S COMMITTEE REPORTS- Supervisor Uhler updated the Board on the Placer Parkway.  He said as the County representative on the South Placer Regional Transportation Authority (SPRTA) which is the lead agency on this project.  SPRTA has done all of the environmental review required under Tier 1 to determine the appropriate alignment, data shows Alternative 5 is the preferred LEDPA alignment.  They have had a series of meetings with various federal agencies.  Unfortunately, EPA and Army Corp. do not believe Alternative 5 (Northern alignment) that connects with Sutter County at Sanke Road, is the LEDPA, instead preferring Alternative 1 which is the longest alignment and the one that connects by Reigo Road and the interchange in South Sutter.  He agreed to let SPRTA staff meet with staff of these agencies to see if something can be done to work this out otherwise SPRTA will have to figure out how to continue to move this process forward into the Tier II analysis.  Supervisor Montgomery attended the Economic Development Board meeting and advised there are three individuals in the County that are potentially looking to bring some new businesses into Placer County.  Chairman Rockholm advised SACOG has come out aggressively that if any new stimulas funds come from the Federal Government, Placer County has many projects on this list that could benefit.  He also attended the Placer County and City of Roseville Boarder Committee meeting and was updated on the Sutter Point project.
