Tonight, county supervisors are scheduled to reconsider a ranchette subdivision near Knights Ferry on order from an appellate ocurt after having denied the project in 2009.
Also, they'll take a look at plans for replacing Honor Farm barracks consumed in a fire with a new wing at the county jail in Ceres. And we expect a presentation on pension rates as well.

The council approved funding for numerous programs and projects, such as a job creation effort, loan repayments, Empire Street improvements and a community center in the airport area.

Good evening. The City Council has a light agenda. The panel will consider how to allocate about $2.7 million in grant funds for public service, housing and homeless assistance.

County supervisors have no action items on their agenda this morning, so it should be a short meeting when it gets underway in a few minutes.
The consent agenda includes appointments to the newly created veterans advisory commission. I see a few veterans in the audience, presumably those about to be appointed. Their main duty will be matching up needs for veterans' meeting halls with suitable county buildings.

The City Council is hearing speakers who are opposing the Modesto Irrigation District's planned sale of water to San Francisco.
