It would require a soft match of $63,844 through staff time. Addressing public con- cern over the latter, Reid said that match would be made through the Commu- nity Action Agency's already leveraged federal funds and would not cost the county. She said portions of the staff time used to administer the rehousing program are al- ready covered and no new staff would need to be hired. Reid said qualifying in- dividuals would need to be able to prove they could take over rent payments on their own within six months and also can only use the pro- gram one time. Supervisor Dennis Gar- ton, who led the questions about whether the grant was helping the impoverished or merely continuing to subsi- dize them, said his concerns were answered with the once in a lifetime stipulation. "There's a lot of concern in our community that we have repeat users for what- ever welfare services and their grouped in that termi- nology," Garton said to Reid. "They don't look at welfare services as multitudes of en- tities that you have. People think of welfare in general and whether or not they're getting food stamps or get- ting residential rent assis- tance it's all the same pro- gram in a lot of people's mind." Supervisor Burt Bundy said his concerns have been with the appearance that welfare programs continue to grow. He also noted that many people contacted him in the past week in support of the program as a way to combat homelessness. "We really need to grow the part of the community that deals with jobs and businesses so those people don't have to be on welfare programs," he said. Reid said she considers all the programs her agency oversees to be hand-up pro- grams and not hand-outs. "Maybe I don't focus enough on that, but you bet- ter believe I'm going to do it from now on," she said. But that will be only until the end of the year. Earlier in the meeting the board approved extending Reid's contract, due to ex- pire at the end of Septem- ber, to the end of 2014, at which time Reid plans to retire.

Ferreira's hiring would come on the heels of a bleak financial report delivered by Fair board directors at their July 15 meeting. Directors said the results of an audit showed that the Tehama District Fair- ground had been living be- yond its means for years. Durrer said the fairgrounds has been hemorrhaging money, and Director An- drew Meredith presented a report that projected the fairgrounds would post of a loss of more than $100,000 in 2013. Meredith added that when directors learned of the results from the au- dit, there was a fear that there wouldn't be enough money to keep the fair- grounds open past October. Additionally, the 30th District Agricultural As- sociation was placed on the California Department of Food and Agriculture's Fairs on the Watch Pro- gram, which comprises fa- cilities that are struggling financially. The Fair board last Wednesday hosted a long- term, facilitated planning session with stakeholders that sought to identify the weaknesses and strengths of the fairgrounds, and fu- ture opportunities to keep the fairgrounds solvent such as improving market- ing efforts and retaining and attracting events. CEO FROM PAGE 1 PLEASERECYCLE THIS NEWSPAPER. Thankyou! the tree is barricaded off. The tree sits about 25 feet away from the adobe. Park officials said they won't being the process of removing the tree until af- ter the park's annual Ide Adobe Day celebration so locals would have a final op- portunity to say goodbye to the departing tree. Usually held the third Saturday in August, offi- cials said they may move back this year's Ide Adobe Day to September. State Park Ranger Kirk Coon said with the tree gone, shade could be an is- sue for an August event, but the extra time is also needed by park staff to prepare for what could be a larger than expected celebration as well as the cleanup being faced. How to take advantage of that increased interest in the park was at the heart of the public's discussion. Splitting the already fallen wood into memora- bilia sized slices and selling them as a fundraiser for the Ide Adobe Interpretive As- sociation garnered a lot of support. Coon said while many of the items, including the adobe itself, could be rec- reated or replaced the tree, which he referred to as the "living heart" of the park, was never going to replaced. Coon suggested once the tree is removed having the parks service donate the wood to the non-profit In- terpretive Association. He said if the state han- dled whatever is deter- mined to be done with the wood than the money would end back up in the state's coffers and may never make its way back to the park. He praised the Interpretive As- sociation for its fundraising efforts in the past to keep the park open and said he hoped it could use the wood as a revenue source. How that will happen re- mains to be worked out. Coon said a number of commercial furniture mak- ers were interested in ob- taining the wood and in re- turn would donate a por- tion of it back to the park. Some in the public said they didn't believe the park would receive a fair value on the oak wood in return. They suggested continu- ing to look for a miller who would work on a volunteer basis. Coon said whatever de- cision is made needs to be done soon as once the tree comes down the time will start ticking on the wood's value if it is not taken to be cured. He said if done right that process would take another two to three years. Once that's done the ideas ranged about what could be done with the wood the Interpretive Asso- ciation keeps for the park's own use from building pic- nic tables to curing a round that would show the tree's rings with markers to point out historical events. One man even suggested using planks to fix the adobe. One idea the park offi- cials seemed to shelve was to carve the remaining tree into a statue. Wright said the parks service likes to maintain historic areas as accurate as possible and adding monu- ments takes away from that vision. Coon said it was those types of decisions the com- munity would need to make along with arborists, engi- neers and artists to see if they were even possible, but pledged the park service would work with what the local community wanted. Tree FROM PAGE 1 By Fenit Nirappil The Associated Press SACRAMENTO California's insurance commissioner released a report Tuesday showing the cost of health care premiums increased significantly this year, as he pushes for more authority to regulate those costs. California'sfourlargestin- surers raised premiums for popular plans from at least 22 percent to as much as 88 percent between 2013 and 2014, depending on factors such as age and location, ac- cording to the annual report released by Commissioner Dave Jones, a Democrat first elected in 2010. Earlier this year, thou- sands of people voiced com- plaints that new rates would be high, even though the state said 2014 rates would be lower than expected. The report also came as Jones campaigns for Propo- sition 45, a November ballot measure that would give his office the power to stop rate increases. Health insurers say Jones' analysis of rates is faulty because the plans offered through the state market- place in 2014 are different under the federal health law. They include subsidies for low-income Californians that reduce the premiums andmustcoverspecifictreat- mentssuchasmaternitycare and mental health services. Jones says many of the re- quirements were already in place in California, and he pointed to a lack of compe- tition in the marketplace as a reason for price increases. Opponents also object to provisions allowing third party attorneys to contest rates and win payouts if they prevail. "We are going to continue to see rates going up simply because there is no author- ity to reject excessive rates, thereisno requirementtore- quire justifying their rates," Jones said. INSURANCE COMMISSIONER Report: Health premiums rose significantly in 2014 By Scott Smith The Associated Press FRESNO A California man who was charged after re- fusing treatment for his tu- berculosis was found and arrested, a prosecutor said Tuesday. Eduardo Rosas Cruz, 25, was arrested late Monday in Kern County, San Joa- quin County Deputy Dis- trict Attorney Stephen Tay- lor said. Before Rosas Cruz can be sent back to San Joa- quin County, he has to be medically cleared, which could take weeks, Taylor said. Authorities last week ob- tained an arrest warrant for Rosas Cruz, saying he was diagnosed with tuberculo- sis in March after going to San Joaquin General Hospi- tal's emergency room with a severe cough. Medical staff at the hos- pital told him to stay in a Stockton motel room, where a health worker would deliver his medica- tion and watch him take it. But officials say he left. Rosas Cruz is a transient and comes from an area of Mexico known for a drug- resistant strain of TB, au- thorities said. He was arrested on the San Joaquin County war- rant during a traffic stop in Lamont, a community about 15 miles southeast of Bakersfield, said Ray Pruitt, a spokesman for the Kern County Sheriff's Office. Of- ficers took him to the Kern Medical Center in Bakers- field. TB can spread through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. The disease can be deadly. Taylor said the goal of prosecuting a tuberculosis patient through the crimi- nal courts is not to punish him, but to protect the pub- lic. He said Rosas Cruz re- fused to cooperate with of- ficials. "When somebody has be- haved like this, it's time to go in-patient," Taylor said. In court papers filed in support of the war- rant, public health offi- cials said Rosas Cruz re- sisted treatment from the start. He also used crack cocaine and methamphet- amine, officials said, add- ing that he could develop the drug-resistant strain if he hasn't already. By law, health officials can't force a patient to be treated for tuberculosis, but officials can use the courts to isolate him from the pub- lic. That is when officials of- fer treatment.

It cost the county nearly $500.00 when you consider the District Attorney's time and the investigators time in addition to the cost of the jury. Thirty five men and women had to leave their work and drive in as prospective jurors. Altogether more than 40 or more people's work was disrupted. The $500.00 might not be excessive…but the trial is not likely to help his candidacy. … Much has been written about results of the approaching Presidential election. One is likely to believe that it will be an overwhelming Democratic victory regardless who is nominated by each party. Many an election has been lost by such overconfidence. The recent visit of Nixon to Russia and his ability to stand up to Khrushchev added much to his stature. The way he conducted himself on his South American tour was a credit to him. If Rockefeller would consent to run with Nixon, it would make for a strong team especially if the Democrats assume the handicap of Adlai Stevenson, California's Brown or Senator Kennedy. No matter what you would like to believe, any of the three above would not get the full support of registered voters. … While driving on the highway near Dairyville, I saw two small boys driving a tractor while cultivating an orchard. I wanted to stop and explain that one boy on a tractor is dangerous but two is asking for death. I don't see how any parent who has seen a rabbit after it was run over on the highway can allow 2 children to ride on a tractor. ... Many standards of conduct are observed on Sundays. The Seventh Day Baptists, the Quakers, each one has a different idea of what is right and what is wrong. TIME magazine tells us of how Sunday is observed in Urk, Holland. They are so strict there, that all pictures are turned to the wall, the only reading is the Bible, the only walking allowed is toward the Church... and to be sure that no living creature forgets it is a day of rest…they separate the roosters from the hens. … This year, almost all the fruit, produce and livestock a farmer has produced will be of less value than last year. However, all his expenses are considerably higher, including the interest on the money he borrows. Everyone knows the higher cost of money is caused by the enormous amounts that are being bet on the stock market every day, but we are likely to think this happens somewhere else. If you don't think it is happening in Tehama County, ask your banker whether the money earned here is going into saving accountants or the San Francisco Stock Market. As a result, possibly two or three million dollars less will be available for loans this year. Dave Minch 1900-1964 WEDNESDAY, JULY 30, 2014 REDBLUFFDAILYNEWS.COM |NEWS | 7 A
