The Bald Eagle Unveiled

The County Sheriff's Dept. recently unveiled a beautifully sculpted bald eagle. The statue brings significance to El Dorado County as it represents the United States iconic symbol and our nation’s emblem. The unveiling ceremony was a peaceful and ceremonial gathering, to remember those we have lost, and to work towards a better future. Special thanks to the Sheriff's Dept. for hosting the event.

Upcoming Budget Matters

Department budget briefings will begin February 2nd. The department budget briefings are where County departments discuss their budgets with the Board of Supervisors. George takes these budgets very serious. As we begin the process of being briefed on department budgets, George will be looking for a few things in particular, such as:

- Road Funding: It's time to prioritize road maintenance, including cleaning drainages and vegetation.

- Senior Services: Many Senior services are in need of attention, since many have been halted.

- Revenue Sources: Reviewing sources of funding and the impact on tax-payers.

El Dorado Transit Rides Again

George recently visited with El Dorado Transit to get an overview of their operations. Many people may not know that El Dorado Transit is running and picking up passengers again. New touch-less technology makes riding around town safe and easy. For longer trips, El Dorado Transit also connects to other transportation services using the same pass service for fares. Please be kind and respectful toward our El Dorado Transit, because they really do help people get where they need to go.
