Posted on On Jan 5, in defiance of a Dec. 15 board resolution, supervisors Patrick Jones, left, and Les Baugh shunned the county’s official virtual meeting and seated themselves as the lone supervisors on the board dais, and the only county representatives inside the closed board chambers. Photo by Steve DuBois. For more than two weeks since Jan. 12, and Shasta County Supervisor Leonard Moty’s surprise motion during the board of supervisors meeting, there has been keen anticipation to learn the answer to two questions: Would a majority of the board vote to censure supervisors Patrick Jones and Les Baugh for their misbehavior on Jan. 5 and 6, or not? Would Baugh and Jones’ unlawful actions cause them to suffer the consequences of board censure, and with it the public acknowledgment of their peers’ formal disapproval? ....
Posted on A few strange things happened Tuesday at the Shasta County Board of Supervisors meeting. But before we examine the meeting’s most bizarre parts, I’d be guilty of burying the lead if I didn’t share one of the most stunning developments. You may recall two occasions last week when Shasta County Supervisors Les Baugh and Patrick Jones unlawfully opened board chambers and allowed the public inside an off-limits space that had been shuttered by supervisors in a Dec. 15 vote after a surge in COVID cases. The pair’s first act of shared defiance was Tuesday. The second was Wednesday, when Jones repeated the previous day’s performance during what was supposed to be a virtual special board meeting. ....
Crowd speaks inside Shasta County Board of Supervisors Chambers On Tuesday, a crowd of people gathered inside the Shasta County Board of Supervisors chambers as they pleaded for county leaders to lift coronavirus restrictions and resume in-person meetings. Posted: Jan 5, 2021 5:48 PM Updated: Jan 6, 2021 10:48 AM Posted By: Ana Marie Torrea REDDING, Calif. – On Tuesday, a crowd of people gathered inside the Shasta County Board of Supervisors chambers. People passionately pleading to county leaders lift coronavirus restrictions and resume in-person meetings. Inside the chambers, many people stood together, with only very few wearing masks. The virtual meeting opened to the crowd that gathered outside, demanding to have their voices heard in person. ....
Posted on The North State is the place to live if you’re a COVID-denying, curfew-breaking, face-mask-burning, anti-science, pro-Trump, China-flu-believer. Bonus points for you if you’re in that group and you also own, for example, a restaurant, such as the San Francisco Deli, Dill’s Deli or a slew of other COVID-19 non-compliant Redding restaurants – too many to list here – or the Palomino Room in Red Bluff, all of which openly disregard state COVID mandates, seemingly minus consequences. It’s not like these places behave like sneaky speakeasies of the 1920s, with curtains drawn and secret knocks and passwords required for quiet entry. Rather, 100 years later there’s a different kind of prohibition backlash: bars and restaurants that remain open in willful defiance of state-mandated COVID shutdowns. This time around, all the lights are on, and patrons post happy photos of themselves at these establishments, as if we’re living in pre-pandemic times. ....
A screenshot of the Shasta County Board of Supervisors meeting this past Tuesday. The Shasta County Board of Supervisors voted 3-2 Tuesday to keep meeting virtually as long as the number of COVID-19 cases continues to rise. The move was the latest to expose community tension over the county response to the pandemic. Many residents saw the vote as an opportunity to comment on how the county has been managing the COVID-19 pandemic, and what steps it should take, or not take, in the future. A vocal contingent expressed outrage about the decision to hold virtual meetings, concerned it would limit their ability to participate in the democratic process. Many argued the switch was not warranted as a public health measure, despite unabated community spread of the virus in the county. ....
