AB 2787 Letter to Governor
.
Supervisor Turnboo sent a letter to Governor Newsom about using veto power to prevent Assembly Bill 2787 (AB 2787) from saving disaster victims extra costs rebuilding a home with solar when they didn't have solar on their home prior to the disaster. New homes are required to have solar regardless of the usefulness to the homeowner. Anyone who is not insured for solar on their home would have to pay for solar out of their own pocket when rebuilding their home after a disaster. AB 2787 would have allowed people who did not have solar on their home the ability to rebuild after a disaster without solar.

Voter-led Initiative Prop 36
-
Governments are instituted of the people, by the people, and for the people. The people have the Right to pursue adding voter-led initiatives to voting ballots when they have concerns. A recent voter-led Initiative #23-0017A1, also known as the “Homelessness, Drug Addiction and Theft Reduction Act” intended for the November 5, 2024, ballot, has been formally supported by the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors. The voter-led initiative is now known as Proposition 36, or simply Prop 36. The voter-led initiative is recognized by many as being tough on crime. Prop 36 is supported by many businesses and law enforcement agencies because it would help end out-of-control retail theft and curb homelessness. Prop 36 will provide law enforcement with greater ability regarding homelessness, theft and provide courts with greater ability to encourage rehabilitation of drug addicted individuals. Governor Newsom and many legislators opposed the Prop 36 voter-led initiative, and wanted to draft their own version. However, after many attempts to prevent Prop 36, it will be on the California State ballot in November. The District 2 office of Supervisor George Turnboo looks forward to voting for this voter-led ballot initiative on the November 5, 2024, voting ballot.

Fraud, Scams, and Identity Theft
-
Criminal behavior comes in many forms, and sometimes appears not to be criminal. Fraud, scams, and identity theft are some crimes that may appear legitimate at first. Scams are often designed with the intention of looking legitimate. Some of the most common scams are: Work-at-Home, Fake Check, Vacation and Travel, or local online scams. Many scams rely on fraud as the primary tool of deception. El Dorado County provides 10 Ways You Can Avoid Fraud and a to-do list for victims of fraud. Identity theft tends to be the end result of scams and fraud, so El Dorado County also provides ideas to prevent identity theft. Contact the FBI, Fraud.org or the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) for more information, or to file a complaint.
