Summary of Request:
On October 26, 2019, Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) de-energized the power to all of Mendocino County resulting in all 90,000 residents being without power for 4 days or more. PG&E began the line inspections for re-energization on October 30 and stated that it will take up to 48 hours to restore power county-wide. The extended outage has created a local emergency in Mendocino County. On October 30, 2019, the Mendocino County Chief Executive Officer/Director of Emergency services proclaimed, by delegation, that a state of emergency exists. Pursuant to Mendocino County Code Section 7.04.090(3), the Board of Supervisors shall review, at its regularly scheduled meetings until the local emergency is terminated, and the need for continuing the local emergency is over.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Do not ratify resolution and provide alternative direction to staff.
