The Brown Act sets the guidelines for conducting public meetings. While the Brown Act does not allow discussion or action on items not on the agenda, it does allow members of the Board, or its staff, to “briefly” respond to comments or questions or to direct staff to place the issue on a future agenda. On occasion, it may be necessary to limit the time per speaker, generally to 3 minutes per speaker (Per Government Code 54956).

BIMID LEVEE
MAINTENANCE NOTICE
Posted or served on July 17, 2024
PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT: The Bethel Island Municipal Improvement District (“BIMID”) will be doing the following levee maintenance and/or repair work: [RIPRAP] on the levee between [3724 Stone Rd.] and [3170 Stone Rd.] beginning on or about [August 5, 2024].
IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO:
- TURN OFF ALL SPRINKLERS ON THE LEVEE TOP AND WATER SIDE SLOPE SEVEN (7) DAYS BEFORE THE WORK BEGINS.
- REMOVE ALL PERSONAL ITEMS FROM LEVEE INCLUDING HOSES, SPRINKLERS, VEHICLES, LAWN FURNITURE, PLANTER BOXES AND CONTAINER PLANTS BEFORE THE WORK BEGINS.
- KEEP PETS OFF OF THE LEVEE INCLUDING THE LANDSIDE SLOPE DURING THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY WORK.
- TRIM TREES BACK FROM LEVEE CROWN (MINIMUM: 14’ HIGH & 20’ ACROSS) PRIOR TO WORK COMMENCING.
PLEASE BE FURTHER ADVISED THAT: especially because BIMID is immune from liability for any damage to private property which necessarily occurs as a result of its levee maintenance and repair, your cooperation is critical in assuring that private property damage is avoided. Wet or damp levees are especially dangerous because work vehicles tend to slide off of, or sink into, wet levees; causing vehicle accidents, ruts in the levee, and broken water lines. That is why you are advised to turn sprinklers off seven (7) days in advance of any levee work.
PLEASE ALSO NOTE THAT: due to strict Fish and Wildlife Regulations, BIMID can only rock 100-foot sections of levee at a time. If your property is not within a 100-foot section, it will be completed in the next rocking rotation.
Please feel free to call the BIMID office at (925) 684–2210 with any questions or concerns. Thanks for your cooperation.
