On Going Projects
No Action discussion only.
Safety Center- Follow up on water drainage with PG&E transformer potentially being in the way (Drain water coming off the parking lot). Sommer Cunningham is meeting with PG&E on 12-17-25. Jamie Little is also looking into grant funding to help cover cost for the safety center. When the bids go out the General contractor awarded the bid will be the project manager and report to the board with updates. Trying to rescope one of the FEMA projects to help fund the Safety Center but that could be a year or longer process.
PG&E- No Update or Change hoping to have update on Dec 17th meeting from Brett Parkinson.
Financial Untangling- Rick Wood is working on the financials and will be giving update on the Dec 17th Meeting. Rick is working on getting thigs straightened on from June 2024 to now to be able to provide a budget. Not auditing anything from the past.
Add Covid Arrearage Grant to Current Projects. Staff need to look over the grant and the rules and make sure what was applied is correct and if the portion that needs to be refunded back to the state is correct.
FEMA Funds Management- Jamie Little, Dan Kearns, Crystal, Susan Neer and Scott Wagner (with Cal-OES) possibly Dean Marsh and Kristie, have a meeting Dec 17th to go over all the FEMA funds. The gazebo was not repaired. As some work was done no money was actually spent on repairs for the gazebo, and visible fire damage is still seen. an extension letter was written for this project. Still waiting on the fire house and equipment invoices to be submitted and close out grants.
Indian Valley Fire- Need to have a Fire Department Budget. Board would like to see reports on a monthly showing what has and needs to be done for the Fire Department. In the future the board would like to be able to hire a Fire Chief.
Town Center Project- Look into the options of how IVCSD can or would be able to transfer Town Center Project to another agency/organization or if IVCSD should give the property back to those who donated them or sold them.
Water Master Infrastructure Plan- Talk with Dean Marsh about making a 20 year plan to see what is feasible and what is not. What does something like that look like. How does IVCSD plan that out. Sewer needs to be included in this it needs 3 or 4 million dollars in repairs.
Round Valley Project- Keli Ward will be here on the Dec 17th meeting with a update along with the consultants associated with the BRIC project. Charles will be attending a walk through with them on Dec 17th and 18th. They will be looking at the safety of the dam and water flow into the lake.
Billing Software- They have been paid for the software and we are waiting to get started. Jamie has rached out to them (enhance).
