A guy was trying to rob the store yesterday just before closing.
Dawn was working. She's fine.
Here are a couple of pictures of the mini van that he was driving.
If anyone recognizes the van can you please call the store. (530)-679-0424.

I stole this from a friend's page.

Butte County Board of Supervisors will be holding their monthly meeting June 14th at 9 a.m. The Bangor Fire Station is not listed on their agenda as an item, but if you look at the agenda (20 pages) on page 15 item 4.14. They are to receive the Butte County Fiscal Year 2022-23 budget with hearings to be held on June 28th at 10 a.m. If you click on the www.buttecounty.net/countybudget link on that page it takes you to the budget. That budget is over 500 pages long. I didn't look at the entire budget only the portion dealing with fire. On page 151 it states that it is "Recommended" to convert one County station (Station 55 - Bangor) to a State-staffed station. It goes on to state the recommendation includes enhanced level of service through the existing Amador stations and Volunteer companies.
I then went and looked up Amador stations. They have several under Amador Fire Protection District and almost all are run and staffed by volunteers. Unfortunately Bangor no longer has a volunteer company so not sure how that would work.
I have also sent an email to Supervisor Connelly to get confirmation that he will be attending the Bangor Hall & Park meeting. As soon as I get confirmation I will let you know. He sent another person a response to an email they sent him stating he will be at the meeting. The Bangor Hall & Park meets the third Tuesday each month at 6:30 p.m. If Supervisor Connelly will be attending we will make sure to set up in the large room so anyone that wishes to hear what he has to say or ask him questions will be able to sit. These meetings are always open to the community and are normally in the small room as it is large enough to seat the number of people that regularly attend.
I had asked to be told when the meeting was scheduled when I called the Supervisors office last Monday and have not gotten a call as yet. I found out about the meeting by continuing to check their website.

The Recommended Budget contains the spending authority for all County Departments.

Is everyone aware that Cal Fire/Butte County Fire plans on de-staffing Bangor Fire Station's Engine 55 effective July 1, 2022, and transferring the Captain, Engineer, and Firefighters to other assignments in the Butte Ranger Unit? I spoke with the Cal Fire Captain on May 24, and he confirmed this information.
According to the Captain, it is yet to be determined whether Engine 55 will be left parked at Station 55, or re-assigned to another station.
Cal Fire Engine 2185 will stationed at Bangor Station 55.
Getting this information was like playing "Twenty Questions". Apparently Cal Fire personnel have be instructed not to volunteer any information, but to answer anyone's questions without expounding or extrapolating their answers. It took me about 15 minutes to get answers to my questions.
Time to start calling or e-mailing 1st District County Supervisor Bill Connelly (530) 538-6834, e-mail [email protected], as well as District 3 California Assemblyman James Gallagher at (530)895-4217.
