At a public meeting on last Thursday, the Clearlake City Council unanimously voted to continue temporary road closures in order to reduce illegal dumping. The area in question is, a largely undeveloped area of the city, west of Acacia, north of Sonoma and includes all or portions of Oleander, Mint, Peony, Toyon and Oregon, commonly knows as the Gobi Desert. The resolution to continue the closure is effective through 2025. The City Council also took the opportunity to declare June 7, at 3 pm, the date for continuing the public hearing on approval of the Burns Valley development project, in response to a recent appeal to the project.
