Lake Pillsbury, CA
Hello Westshore Members,
PG&E/County of Lake Update:
At the time of this update, we are still waiting to hear back from PG&E on their proposed allowances for any structures to remain in the campground, and their letter of consent which would allow our attorney to work directly with the County of Lake on behalf of our association. We had been told that PG&E would tentatively have some resolution this week. However, since this is an upcoming holiday weekend, we believe at this point that will be delayed until at least next week. In the meantime, Lake County is waiting to hear from us on receiving PG&E’s consent to allow Martin to negotiate directly with the County.
September 18th Maintenance Day to be Rescheduled:
The campground is looking good. There has been a lot of effort put forth by a large percentage of our campers, and we’ve continued to make good strives toward removing structures that would require a building permit and that PG&E has stated they will not allow. However, there is still work needing done and some camps are still delayed in starting. In light of that, we have decided to postpone our September maintenance day to encourage that the priority downsizing of camps is not interfered with. We will plan to reschedule in October and make it a two-day work weekend on the 16th and 17th. It’s most important to complete all work in individual camps right now to bring the camp into compliance as best as we know it at this point in time. As before, if there is any confusion, please refer to our email dated July 27th, that outlined the priority items needing removed by August 18 while our attorney worked with PG&E and the County as to what they would allow us to keep that would not require a permit should legal non-conforming be allowed, and the letter from our attorney that was sent out on August 3rd that clarifies our zoning requirements and where our efforts should be focused.
Dumpsters:
Last weekend, Dean Martinelli brought in one last dumpster before he returned up north to fight the Caldor fire near Lake Tahoe. This will be the final dumpster provided by the association and is solely for wood construction debris. No metal, pressure treated lumber or trash is allowed to be dumped in this box. Once it is full – do not stack anything around or near the dumpster. Keep your debris in your camp until you can haul it home yourself. We are extremely happy that we have been able to provide some dumpsters for the past six weeks to help keep our momentum going, however we’ve exceeded our budget and are well into our reserve funds at this point. So, we no longer have the ability to continue to provide them. We truly appreciate your understanding and cooperation moving forward.
We wish you all a safe and enjoyable Labor Day weekend!
Sincerely,
Westshore Board of Directors
