With several county supervisors and key staff headed to Washington, D.C. next week to meet with national leaders, the board of supervisors will meet Monday, April 24, instead of their usual Tuesday meeting. On the agenda is a grant application to fund more trails connecting Placer's North Lake Tahoe communities and Truckee. Also on the agenda is an update on planned speed limit changes in several areas based on recent surveys conducted by Placer County's Department of Public Works and Facilities. Can't make it in person? Stream meetings online at placer.ca.gov, participate by video conference at our Tahoe City offices or call in at 530-886-5225. Agenda
