The Dec. 9 meeting included a batch of routine but consequential administrative votes. The board approved the consent calendar by a single motion and roll call (5–0). Staff also presented and the board approved administrative CalPERS compliance resolutions to reclassify certain incentive payments as reportable management incentive pay for four department directors (no salary changes), and several temporary acting‑director appointments in Behavioral Health with associated management incentive pay effective Nov. 20, 2025; each of those resolutions passed on roll‑call votes (5–0).

Other actions included a one‑year extension (through Dec. 31, 2027) of a road‑impact fee freeze for single‑family parcels created by parcel map (staff cited a fee gap of roughly $9,500 → $19,096 in some zones), approval to waive the first reading and set a second reading for a triennial building‑code update (Jan. 13, 2026) and adoption of a noise‑ordinance amendment to allow case‑by‑case off‑hour work for public‑safety or traffic reasons. The board also approved acceptance of $1.25 million in unanticipated insurance revenue for Maintenance District 27 (Goldside Estates) to fund interim wastewater solutions after a catastrophic plant failure. All of these routine items were approved unanimously.

Why it matters: Though procedural, these votes affect county personnel administration, permit fees and capital/maintenance funding and set up follow‑on implementation work by departments.

What’s next: Departments will complete contract and resolution paperwork, implement approved pay‑classification changes, manage the fee freeze and execute procurement or temporary services funded by the MD‑27 insurance payment.
