District Project Updates & Discussion
The board reaffirmed its mission to build community confidence and conducted a round-robin discussion to prioritize key projects. Members emphasized the importance of allowing the General Manager to pursue funding opportunities and conduct due diligence on project proposals before making decisions.
Project Updates and Prioritization
A. Fire Station/Public Safety Center
The fire station project is in its final design stages, awaiting county zoning approval and a building permit. The two-phase construction process includes securing the foundation while awaiting final plan approval, with completion anticipated in 2025. The estimated cost is approximately $5 million, with $1.5 million secured from Plumas County. Additional funding options, including legal settlements and loans, are under consideration. A lease agreement with PDH and CareFlight is also being explored.
B. Greenville Park Renovation
A collaboration with IV Parks District and Little League is set to renovate two baseball fields and improve the play zone. The project is in the final planning stages, with $400,000 in pledges from IVRPD and Little League. The board is reviewing the Scope of Work before moving to bid. Maintenance solutions, including hiring local staff and addressing rodent control, were also discussed.
C. Greenville Water System
Phase 1 and 2 of system upgrades are near completion, with $4.2 million in state funding through Plumas County. Additional FEMA grants are being utilized for raw water line replacement and improvements to groundwater capacity. Future efforts include test wells and a new production well and tank by 2026 to enhance resilience. Plans are also in place to pipe Round Valley Lake into groundwater tanks for emergency fire suppression.
D. Town Center Project
The proposed multi-use Town Center would centralize services such as a public kitchen, library, and pool. While funding is not yet secured, potential grants from the EPA and SGC are being explored. Board members debated whether the project aligns with IVCSD’s core responsibilities. Public comments emphasized the long-term need for such a facility in community redevelopment.
E. Housing & Mixed-Use Development
The board has approved the purchase of three residential properties, with potential resale if unused. Through partnerships with the Plumas County Housing Council, there is an opportunity to develop up to nine workforce housing units with no district funds, aside from staff time. Additional opportunities for larger-scale housing development are being explored.
Board Prioritization:
Each board member ranked the projects based on urgency and feasibility:
1. Fire Station – Universally ranked as the top priority.
2. Park Renovation – Supported as a critical community asset.
3. Water System – Essential for infrastructure resilience.
4. Town Center – Long-term feasibility questioned, with concerns about funding.
5. Housing – Support varies; some members emphasize job creation first.
The discussion reaffirmed the board’s commitment to strategic planning, responsible governance, and seeking external funding to minimize district financial burdens.
