STAY COOL AT COUNTY FACILITIES
With record temps hitting the region and an Excessive Heat Warning in effect through this evening, Health & Human Services Director Anna Scott reported on Tuesday that HHS is working to refine a policy for activation of cooling centers from Bishop to Furnace Creek when dangerously high temperatures exist.
The National Weather Service forecast highs on Friday of 105-111 in the Owens Valley and 122-129 at Furnace Creek in Death Valley National Park. Temperatures will drop down to the mid- to high 90s by Monday, and creep back up to triple digits by week’s end.
While staff works to finalize the cooling center policy – which will determine various triggers and thresholds for opening the centers – the public is reminded that Inyo County’s libraries and senior centers are good places to seek out air conditioning during the summer months, especially during heat waves.

Controller Cohen Issues June Cash Report
SACRAMENTO — State Controller Malia M. Cohen today released her monthly cash report covering the state’s General Fund revenues, disbursements and actual cash balance for the fiscal year through June 30, 2024. The state ended its fiscal year with $103.3 billion in unused borrowable resources, while fiscal year-to-date receipts exceeded, and disbursements were lower than the estimates contained in the Governor’s 2024-25 May Revision.
“California closed its 2023-24 fiscal year with a significant amount of available borrowable resources that served as a testament to the state’s ability to plan and prepare for a down cycle in the economy,” said Controller Cohen. “Looking ahead, the recently enacted state budget includes using a portion of the rainy day reserves, internal borrowing and fund shifts as balancing solutions. My office will continue to monitor the state’s actual cash balance in the treasury to ensure the state is maintaining sufficient amounts of cash to meet its payment obligations.”
