Stay informed with the latest headlines and community updates from across the Eastern Sierra. In this report, we’re covering local government, road and recreation access, education, community development, financial resources, public meetings, and new funding opportunities.

This episode includes an important jury duty announcement and information about the temporary closure of Pleasant Valley Dam Road. We also head to Mammoth Lakes, where Mammoth High School is celebrating a new mural and progress continues on a local cultural center construction project.

Plus, Inyo County is reminding eligible residents about California’s Property Tax Postponement Program, Michael Masuda is preparing to hold an upcoming town hall, and California State Parks is accepting applications for a grant opportunity supporting communities and recreation.
