LAKEHEAD, Shasta County — October 28, 2026. Lakehead residents who depend on public water infrastructure can follow the county’s County Service Area No. 2 (Sugarloaf Water) through its quarterly advisory board meeting calendar. Shasta County published Tuesday, October 27, 2026 as the fourth and final scheduled advisory board meeting for 2026.

Where are meetings scheduled?

According to the county’s 2026 Citizens Advisory Board Meeting Schedule, the Sugarloaf Water board meets quarterly on the fourth Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. in the Lakehead Lions Club Hall, 20814 Mammoth Drive, Lakehead. The listed meeting dates for 2026 are January 27, April 28, July 28 and October 27. The schedule is expressly described as tentative and subject to change.

Did the board approve anything on October 27?

The published calendar establishes the scheduled date and location, not who attended or what was approved. No vote tally, final minutes or specific October 27 water-rate decision has been independently verified for this report. Anyone who wants to confirm an agenda item or outcome should request the adopted minutes and staff materials from the county.

Why advisory board access matters

Local water systems face practical questions about infrastructure maintenance, project financing, service reliability, capital replacement and long-term rates. Advisory meetings offer a way for residents to understand how service areas are managed and to learn which body has formal authority to make decisions. The advisory board’s recommendations and the county Board of Supervisors’ actions are not necessarily the same thing.

How to check future meetings

Because the October 27 date has already passed, this is a guide to obtaining the meeting record and finding the next schedule, not an invitation to attend a future event on October 27. Request the updated Citizens Advisory Board calendar and any available minutes from Shasta County. The public meeting page may change dates or venues.
