Maureen Mulheren

Data center moratorium extension

No direct cost to taxpayers; the moratorium aims to head off future water, power and infrastructure burdens.

County Executive and Legal Leadership Appointments

Combined, the two positions carry about $942,000 in estimated annual salary and benefits.

Deteriorating county roads

Williams wants at least $1 million a year built into the budget for roads, possibly phasing in over two to three years.

Labor Negotiations with County Employee Unions

A 3% COLA placeholder could cost millions annually; the county says it can't afford it, the union says the $30 million uncollected property tax says otherwise.

First Quarter Budget Report and FY 2026-27 Budget Amendments

Amendment amounts are detailed in the budget report attachments.

El Niño winter storm emergency

Flood fight materials are being staged from a DWR grant, but the state proclamation carries no funding, leaving costs on the county's general fund if damage occurs.

1% Road Sales Tax Falls Short

Would have raised an estimated dedicated revenue stream for county road repairs had it reached the ballot and passed.

Permanent County CEO appointment

Combined estimated annual compensation for the two positions is roughly $941,700 including salary and benefits.

Bower Park Improvement Project Phase 3 Grant

The grant would fund the project; local match requirements are in the staff report.

Meadow Farm code enforcement fee waiver

The county forgoes an estimated $9,000 or more in penalty fees.

City of Ukiah proposed annexation and tax sharing

Roughly $150,000 estimated first-year loss; potential $12 million in road obligation savings disputed.

Public Ambulance Joint Powers Agreement

Financial details have not yet been presented.

Willits library refresh and ADA upgrades

About $4.1 million in Measure O funds redirected to the Willits branch; no general fund dollars involved.

Reynold's Highway bridge replacement over Outlet Creek

Project is 100% reimbursable through the Highway Bridge Program, including county staff time, with the local match covered by toll credits.

Performance evaluations of department heads

Department leadership performance can shape how well services like agriculture oversight and air quality enforcement run locally.

County Health Officer appointment

Microenterprise Home Kitchen Operations (MEHKO) Program

The agenda does not state program costs, though the county would take on permitting and enforcement work.

Ukiah Area Trash Capture Devices

Estimated at $205,000, plus a $12,000 contingency.

Sea Level Rise Policies for the Mendocino Coast

Deed restrictions and hazard reviews could raise costs for coastal development, and the county currently has no funding to help relocate threatened homes.

Code enforcement priorities and neighborhood nuisances

Staffing cuts — eight field investigators down to two — are the root constraint; a follow-up process discussion is expected in December or January.
