Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting - Oct 27, 2026
Two Forcum-Mackey construction contract amendments added roughly $576,000 combined due to unforeseen conditions, and both projects were accepted as complete or nearing completion.
Planning Commission - Oct 14, 2026
The county is finishing environmental and fiscal studies for the Goshen project, with a report expected within six months and possibly a new developer fee attached. Development interest in the community remains strong.
Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting - May 12, 2026
The county awarded a $1.9 million contract to rebuild Road 67 in Goshen, approved a countywide guardrail safety project, added a stop sign near Exeter, and adopted its official road mileage of 2,960.99 miles — while supervisors noted rural counties get far less per mile for road maintenance than urban ones.
Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting - Mar 17, 2026
The county approved bid documents for the Road 67 Operational Improvements Project in Goshen, including traffic signals and street lights — a visible safety and traffic upgrade for the community.

The county approved the final map and improvement agreement for Phase 4 of Tierra Linda Holdings' Goshen subdivision and formed an assessment district to pay for street maintenance there.
Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting - Feb 3, 2026
Property owners in Tract 835 voted by weighted ballot on whether to form a district funding landscaping, pocket park upkeep, graffiti abatement, and sidewalk repairs. Ballots came back 100% in favor, so the district was formed with Phase A assessments of $24,380 a year and Phase B of $3,120 once remaining improvements are built.
Planning Commission - Jan 28, 2026
Two big county development projects are still in environmental review. Traver's developer agreed to reimburse the county for EIR and infrastructure review costs and wants to build a wastewater package plant; Goshen's sewer and water study is with the city and a traffic study is starting. Sewer capacity in Goshen is nearly used up, so future development there will get more expensive.
Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting - Jan 27, 2026
Smee Homes' final phase of 90 homes in Goshen comes with a three-way deal: the county abandons a road and waives fees, the developer gives Kaweah Delta a 20-foot easement to maintain the Mill Creek ditch and builds a protective fence wall. Supervisors want broader setback rules for future development along waterways.
Planning Commission - Jan 14, 2026
The Kaweah Delta Water Conservation District needs regular access to maintain the Mill Creek channel, and new Goshen houses were being built right up against it. This deal trades 20 feet of some backyards, a roadway abandonment and about $120,000 in county fee waivers for permanent access easements and stronger backyard fencing — and the county avoids inheriting the maintenance burden itself.
