I want to change that and give hope and prosperity to all Californian’s.” Comment For full story Subscribe              Sophia comes home GLENBURN – Sophia Kammerer, the daughter of Natalie and Jeremy was born with major heart problems which weren’t discovered for 2.5 months when she was rushed to Mayers Memorial Hospital after her mother gave her CPR and saved her life in early September. Neither saw home again until last Saturday. They were flown to U.C. Davis Medical Center in Sacramento and taken from there to Stanford Medical Center in the Bay Area. After a wait for a donor heart she was wheeled into surgery at 11 p.m. October 4. At 7 a.m., after eight hours of surgery, she had a new heart. The donated heart had been flown in from out of state and Sophia was selected because she was the healthiest baby on the list. Now, after four months of recovery along with many ups and downs they are home with dad Jeremy and sister  Nina. “Thank you so much to everyone that have been praying for this day, it has finally come.” She wrote the night before they left the Bay Area. Comment For full story Water District Audit’s in BURNEY – The Burney Water District received their Independent Audit report for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011 at last week’s board meeting. The audit shows that the district has total net assets of $5,956,019 at the close of that fiscal year. That was $166,760 less than the period ending June 30, 2009. The overall revenue for the district was $1,107,626 less than the district’s expenses by $166,760 and the cost of the district’s programs was $48,327 less than the previous year. Long-term debt decreased by $45,000 due to regular principal payments on bonds. Comment For full story Subscribe Services District asks MAC to take water issue off the table McARTHUR – The Fall River Valley Municipal Advisory Committee failed to make a recommendation on the Community Services District’s request for public input on providing new water storage facilities at the McArthur end of that district. That action came after McArthur Fire Chief Pat Oilar said all the fire district needed was 500 gallons instead of the much larger storage capability the district had originally envisioned. The other deciding factor was that the CSD’s manager, John Van den Bergh, asked that the committee not go forward because the district’s budget showed that the district couldn’t afford it. A budget that had been posted on the District’s web site showed a $38,000 deficit projected for the end of the fiscal year if they set aside the amount for depreciation they have budgeted. The CSD’s reasoning for increasing storage when they asked the committee to get input was to ensure proper water pressure for fire suppression during a major event. The option of drilling a new well and tying it to the existing water distribution center had been added to that agenda following discussion of that option at the CSD meeting a week ago. Comment
