LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — Where should Lake County's zero emission vehicle infrastructure go?
The Lake Area Planning Council wants to hear from local residents.
The county is developing a zero emission vehicle infrastructure plan for where to place electric vehicle charging stations and hydrogen fueling stations throughout Lake County.
Local input will help determine the best locations to serve residents, businesses and visitors.
Ways to share your input:
1. Take the online survey (10 minutes): Share insights about your transportation needs and priorities.
2. Use the online interactive map: Suggest locations for charging stations.
3. Join an upcoming in-person community workshop on Thursday, July 24, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at Clearlake City Hall. Click here to register on Eventbrite.
The plan will guide how Lake County prepares for the growing number of zero emission vehicles on local roads while supporting the local economy.
Residents don't need to own an electric vehicle to participate. The planning process is open to anyone who lives, works or travels in Lake County.
For more information or to participate, visit the project web page on Lake Area Planning Council’s website or contact John Speka at Lake APC at

LAKEPORT, Calif. — An August event will focus on raising funds to bring hope to young people facing critical illnesses — and that includes Lake County children.
The Lake County Walk for Wishes will take place on Saturday, Aug. 23, at Highland Springs Reservoir.
The event, which starts at 8 a.m., will be held in conjunction with the larger Bay Area Walk for Wishes.
It will benefit Make-A-Wish Greater Bay Area, which serves 17 counties — including Lake and Mendocino.
Team captains Leah Sautelet and Ron Ladd said participants can walk, donate or fundraise to help make more local wishes come true.
They can join as an individual or form a team. Choose the full four-mile loop around the reservoir, a relaxed one-mile meadow stroll or simply gather in the shade with fellow supporters to celebrate the power of a wish.
The fundraising goal for the event is at least $5,000.
Organizers said that in the past, local children have had wishes including singing the national anthem at the Lakeport Speedway and traveling to faraway places like Disney World.
“Every wish brings joy, strength and a renewed sense of possibility to children and their families,” organizers said.
They added, “Wishes aren’t just nice — they’re necessary.”
