MEMORANDUM
TO: Board of Supervisors
FROM: Scott De Leon, Public Works Director
DATE: February 27, 2018
SUBJECT: (a) Consideration of waiving required standards of Chapter 12, Section 8, Part III (c) 3 of County Policies for "Commemorative Names Honoring Former County Officials and Employees"; and (b) Consideration of Resolution of Intent to Supersede Resolution No. 90-306 Naming, Renaming, and Extending the Length of Existing Roads within the Area of the County Jail Facility in the County of Lake.
