Mendocino College in November will ask voters to approve a $67.5 million bond, which would cost property owners $25 yearly per $100,000 in assessed property value. In other words, a person with a home assessed at $400,000 would pay $100 a year -- about the cost of a current textbook -- or less than $9 a month. Twenty-five years ago, the local college filed a master plan with the state to build a Ukiah campus and centers in the Lakeport and Willits areas, according to Ross Beck, director of public information. "Much of that plan is completed with excellent facilities in Ukiah and leased facilities for the two centers. Four permanent buildings, however, still need to be constructed," he said, referring to a new library and a maintenance building on the Ukiah campus, as well as two permanent facilities -- one for the Lakeport campus, and one for the Willits campus, where the college currently leases its centers.
A resident in Dukes Mobile Home Park, 5460 Harlan Street, suffered minor burns this morning when a portable electric heater sparked a blaze that raced through one mobile home and spread to another early this morning in Arvada. The Arvada Fire Protection District fire marshals office determined the portable heater had been placed too near combustible materials. The initial call came at 1:28 a.m. and the first fire unit arrived six minutes later to find the mobile home fully involved. The intense heat ignited a second mobile home. Both units were a total loss. Another nearby mobile home only suffered minor heat damage but a pickup truck in front was damaged as well. The American Red Cross is assisting the displaced residents. .
