Cobb Area Council (“CAC”)

The Cobb Area Council (“CAC”) was formed in the summer of 2016 as a Municipal Advisory Council, to support and advise the Lake County Board of Supervisors (“BOS”) on the specific needs of the Cobb Area.  Following the Valley Fire of 2015, it became apparent that the Cobb communities needed a forum for public discussion, with the capacity to bring urgent needs to the county government.  On June 9, 2016, the community voted unanimously to pass the resolution to create the CAC. A few weeks later, the BOS approved the resolution, as well.

Resource Conservation Districts (RCDs), once known as Soil Conservation Districts, are “special districts” of the state of California, as locally governed agencies with their own locally appointed or elected independent boards of directors. RCDs help private landowners conserve soil and water and manage their resources sustainably. They also act as a focal point for local conservation efforts, function as leaders in the conservation community, and sponsor educational efforts to teach children and adults alike the importance of conserving natural resources. Activities include soil and water conservation programs, wildlife habitat enhancement and restoration projects, invasive species management, watershed restoration, conservation planning, demonstration of new technologies, education, etc.
