YUCCA VALLEY TOWN COUNCIL HIRES FIRM TO ASSESS PFF BUILDING; REVISES SEX OFFENDER ORDINANCE

The Yucca Valley Town Council agreed at its meeting last night to hire an architectural firm—at a cost not to exceed $60,600—to perform a property assessment on the old PFF Bank building at the intersection of the highway and Joshua Lane. The firm will come up with different ideas of how the town can use the building, and how much it would cost to convert and remodel it. Other possible options include leasing it to the county for a new library or selling it. But the council was informed that due to state laws concerning the dissolution of redevelopment agencies, the Town would have to share the proceeds from the sale or lease with other taxing entities, which means the Town would receive only about 17 percent of the proceeds from a sale or lease. In light of a threatened lawsuit against the town by Frank Lindsay, a registered sex offender who is NOT a resident of Yucca Valley, but who has filed dozens of lawsuits against cities throughout California, in an attempt to get them to revise or repeal their ordinances, the council voted to repeal a part of its ordinance concerning where registered sex offenders can legally loiter. The change in the ordinance does NOT affect where areas where sex offenders can live.
