End of the Year Review: Summer

OP/ED- To say that the County of Lake has dropped the ball several times when it comes to providing an effective program to address the homeless shelter situation in Lakeport would not be a hyperbolic statement, but despite all the trials and mishaps associated with the first two contractors tasked to administer the facility at the old juvenile hall, the impending takeover by Redwood Community Services provides another chance for the county to finally get it right.

Despite a dearth of personnel, the homeless shelter in Lake County has remained in operation for homeless residents and those lacking safe accommodation during the months when harsh weather conditions prevail.
