Supervisors Carrier and Smallcombe discussed the need to have the California State Association of Counties (CSAC) put out a call to the counties for letter.

Supervisor Carrier discussed the annual report on roads, conditions, and recommendations from Public Works and noted that he hopes that Public Works continues to evaluate and prioritize the roads; and that the Board should support staff because they know that the county is short on the necessary money.
