FAIRFIELD Solano County planning staff on Tuesday will present to the Board of Supervisors possible revisions to the short-term vacation rental policy approved in October 2018.
The staff report to the board states that only four permits have been approved since that requirement to operate a hosted or unhosted short-term vacation rental was enacted.
“We know there’s more than four,” Supervisor Monica Brown said in a phone interview Friday. She has advocated for tighter regulations on the industry in Solano County. “There are people out there (running rentals) without permits . . . out there doing it illegally.”
Waterfowl, and yes, elk, return to newly flooded Montezuma wetlands
COLLINSVILLE It did not take long for nature to reclaim what it took Jim Levine and Montezuma Wetlands LLC more than 30 years to create.
Levine told the Solano County supervisors Tuesday that within hours of a levee being breached to flood an area that had been tidal wetlands for thousands of years, birds and other wildlife moved into the area.
“What really surprised us was, literally on that day, Oct. 27, in the afternoon, we had flocks of birds come into the site and a herd of elk moved into our site,” said Levine, the managing partner of Montezuma Wetlands LLC. “They showed up that day.”
Solano hires Resource Management veteran to lead agency
FAIRFIELD Terry Schmidtbauer began his career in Solano County as an environmental health supervisor, hired in 1999 to help develop an on-site sewage disposal ordinance.
The Board of Supervisors on Tuesday promoted him to director of the Department of Resource Management, about six months after being named interim director when Bill Emlen was named as an assistant county administrator.
Schmidtbauer, 59, was promoted to Environmental Health manager in 2004 and to assistant director of the department in 2014.
The county did not provide Schmidtbauer’s precise salary when requested by the Daily Republic. It did report the salary range for the position as $176,616 to $214,680 annually. Emlen was paid $208,436 as director of the Department of Resource Management at the time of his promotion.
