CLEARLAKE, Calif. – The Clearlake City Council on Thursday hosted the swearing-in of a veteran member of the police department to the captain’s job and a new community service officer.
Chief Andrew White administered the oath to Capt. Tim Celli and Community Service OfficerDaniel Constancio.
Celli, who has been with the police department for more than 20 years, previously served as its interim chief before White’s hiring.
White said Celli – who has worked his way up through the ranks over the years – is an example of someone who has dedicated his life to an agency.
“Capt. Celli is an officer that has given so much to the Clearlake Department and is someone that truly bleeds Clearlake blue,” Chief White said following the ceremony.
Celli also has been helpful to White in the department’s transition to leadership and implementing needed changes, White said.
The Clearlake City Council recently reinstated the captain’s position based on a reorganization plan from Chief White.
Celli started out in the Clearlake Police Department as an explorer at age 14. After graduating from Lower Lake High School he served in the United States Army National Guard as a military
policemen.
He came home to Clearlake in 1995 and was hired as a community service officer. After being sworn in as a full-time police officer in 1999, Celli has held many different assignments since, including field training officer, detective, narcotics agent, crime suppression unit, patrol sergeant, administrative sergeant, lieutenant and interim police chief.
Over the years, Celli has faced the dangers common to police. He was shot at by a home invasion robbery suspect in 2013, with that suspect later convicted of assault with a deadly weapon on Celli.
When he appeared for his swearing-in, Celli had a bump on his head from a foot pursuit earlier in the day that had resulted in another officer being injured, hospitalized and later released, according to White.
Celli’s wife of 21 years, Amanda, took part in the swearing-in ceremony, coming forward to pin his badge on him. She kissed the badge before placing it on his uniform and then gave him a hug.
White then administered the oath to Celli. City Manager Alan Flora then came up to shake Celli’s hand.
Also on Thursday, Daniel Constancio was sworn in as the department’s new community service officer, a position that often is an entry point for future police officers, as it was for Celli.
Constancio was born and raised in Sacramento and graduated from Roseville High School. While prior to his swearing in, he had served in the city’s Public Works Department, with his long-term goal to be a police officer.
The city reported that Constancio comes from a family of first responders and is looking forward to beginning his training as a community service officer.
“The city has been fortunate to have so many dedicated employees that have a passion for our community,” said Flora. “We love seeing our officers and staff step up to new challenges and I am proud of how many employees have followed their dreams by moving up within the Clearlake organization. Congratulations to both Capt. Celli and CSO Constancio in their new role.”

LUCERNE, Calif. – California Water Service filed an application with the California Public Utilities Commission on Monday that will result in bill decreases for the utility’s Lucerne customers.
The filing implements various ratemaking mechanisms that company officials said will ensure customer bills continue to reflect the true cost to provide water service.
For the typical residential Lucerne customer who uses 2,992 gallons, or 4 ccf, of water per month, the monthly bill will decrease by $5.63.
Because Lucerne customers are billed for water service every two months, they would see a decrease of $11.26 on the bimonthly bill, the company said.
Included in the application is a 12-month credit to reflect lower capital financing costs and changes in the federal tax law from Jan. 1 to June 30, 2018.
In July 2018, Cal Water reduced customer rates going forward due to these changes; the utility also tracked their effect in order to enable customer savings to go back to the first half of 2018.
The filing also includes a surcharge to reconcile the difference between actual and forecasted water system costs in 2017 and 2018, due to variations in water consumption and water supply costs, along with a surcharge for expenses incurred in 2016 and 2017 for programs implemented to support customers’ efforts to meet state-mandated water-use reduction requirements.
The surcharges, both running for 12 months, are less than the credit, however, resulting in lower water bills.
“At Cal Water, we are committed to providing a reliable supply of safe, high-quality water to the Lucerne community,” said Evan Markey, Cal Water’s Redwood Valley district manager. “As a regulated utility, our customers’ bills reflect the true cost of providing water service, and we’re pleased to pass along these savings to our valued customers. It’s part of our promise to always provide quality, service and value.”
Cal Water serves approximately 3,200 people through 1,900 service connections in the Redwood Valley area and about 2 million people through 484,900 service connections in California. The utility has provided water service in the area since 2000.

LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Board of Supervisors is due this week to consider taking final votes on forming new benefit zones for four Kelseyville communities, an effort meant to address hazardous vegetation in order to reduce the threat of wildland fires.
The board will meet beginning at 9 a.m. Tuesday, April 16, in the board chambers on the first floor of the Lake County Courthouse, 255 N. Forbes St., Lakeport.
The meeting can be watched live on Channel 8 and online at https://countyoflake.legistar.com/Calendar.aspx. Accompanying board documents, the agenda and archived board meeting videos also are available at that link.
At 10:30 a.m, the board will hold a public hearing to consider resolutions accepting and confirming ballot tabulation for the establishment of zones of benefit within CSA 23 in the communities of Buckingham, Clear Lake Riviera, Riviera Heights and Riviera West.
The board passed four resolutions of intent to create the zones of benefit on Jan. 29, with the matter then put out to voters under the requirements of Proposition 218.
At the end of protest hearings on March 26, it was confirmed that a majority of the returned ballots favored the benefit zones, as Lake County News has reported.
During the board’s March 26 meeting, a community member opposed to the benefit zones said that the language “Official Ballot Enclosed,” was not printed on the envelopes in which ballots were mailed.
“I and my staff sincerely regret this omission,” County Administrative Officer Carol Huchingson wrote in her report to the board on the item. “However, as your Board may be aware, the purpose of this statute, Government Code Section 53753 (b), is to ensure that property owners are aware of their opportunity to vote to accept or oppose the proposed assessments, and do not unknowingly throw away their ballots.”
Huchingson said that the board may determine whether the ballot measure, as conducted, was in substantial compliance with the noticing requirements of Government Code section 53753.
She then outlined some of the “numerous and substantial efforts” made to inform property owners in the affected areas that they would receive ballots from county, including discussing the matter on four different occasions; Supervisor Rob Brown’s two information town hall-style meetings; county press releases shared on social media; significant local media coverage; and the efforts of homeowners’ associations to do their own outreach.
Huchingson said all envelopes containing mailed ballots were labeled “County of Lake,” and mailed first class, not bulk mail, indicating they were not junk mail, and should not be thrown away.
“Provided your Board finds that these, and/or other factors, substantially fulfill the reasonable objective of Government Code section 53753 (b), staff recommends your Board adopt the attached Resolutions, accepting and confirming ballot tabulation for the four proposed Zones of Benefit,” Huchingson wrote.
Also on the agenda, at 10 a.m. the board will continue a discussion first held last week regarding the Big Valley Band of Pomo Indians’ fee to trust applications with the Bureau of Indian Affairs for 21 tribal-owned parcels.

LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Lakeport City Council on Tuesday will get a report on police statistics for the first quarter of this year, consider taking positions on state bills and also discuss an agreement for a water program.
The council will meet in closed session at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 16, to discuss labor negotiations and property at 810 Main St. before the open session convenes at 6 p.m.

According to Rasmussen’s report, SB 230 (Caballero), “is a comprehensive measure focused on building upon existing efforts to improve outcomes during law enforcement officers’ involvement in serious use of force incidents, while SB 392 (Weber) “mandates an in-hindsight standard be used to hold officers criminally liable for using force when responding to life-or-death situations.”

Ingram is seeking the agreement’s approval and the appointment of one council member as the designated city representative and one as an alternate to the program management council.

Public Works Director Doug Grider will seek approval for a utility truck for his department and ask the council to adopt a proposed resolution approving the city’s SB 1 Project List for fiscal year 2019-20 and direct staff to submit to the California Transportation Commission.
Also on Tuesday, Mayor Tim Barnes will present proclamations declaring April 2019 as Sexual Assault Awareness Month and Child Abuse Prevention Month.
On the consent agenda – items considered noncontroversial and usually accepted as a slate on one vote – are ordinances; minutes of the regular council meeting on April 2; confirmation of the continuing existence of a local emergency for the Mendocino Complex fire; confirmation of the continuing existence of a local emergency for the February 2019 storms; approval of event application WP 2019-001, with staff recommendations, for the 2019 Grillin’ on the Green event; approval of event application 2019-015, with staff recommendations, for the 2019 Library Park Farmer’s Market; approval of the agreement with the Lake County Tourism Improvement District for administrative services and authorize the Mayor to sign the agreement; authorization for staff to temporarily fill a police sergeant position with a police officer but leave position budgeted as sergeant; authorization for out-of-state travel as requested by the city manager and community development director to attend RECon – the Global Retail Real Estate Convention in Las Vegas, Nevada May 20 to 21.
