Shasta College and Trinity County have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that will provide staffing support for the Trinity County Library system, helping maintain the current level of service at library locations in Weaverville and Trinity Center.

Under the agreement, Shasta College librarian Ky Watkins will provide direct support to Trinity County's library operations. The MOU establishes a cost-sharing arrangement between Shasta College and Trinity County that will help keep Trinity County library locations open to the public and operating at the same level of service provided during the previous fiscal year.

"Trinity County is grateful for Shasta College's partnership and its commitment to our communities," said Trent Tuthill Trinity County Administrative Officer. "Our libraries provide an important service to residents of all ages, and this agreement allows us to maintain access to those resources in Weaverville, Hayfork, and Trinity Center. This is a great example of two public agencies working together to find a practical solution that directly benefits the people we serve."

"Shasta College is always looking for ways to collaborate with Trinity County and support students there," said Shasta College Superintendent/President Frank Nigro. "We are, after all, not just Shasta College, but the Shasta-Tehama-Trinity Joint Community College District."

Nigro noted that the partnership will benefit both the communities served by the libraries and the approximately 300 Trinity County residents who are currently taking classes at Shasta College. "Libraries are important community resources, and this partnership gives us another opportunity to work together to serve the people of Trinity County," Dr. Nigro said.

Update: the Tehama Community Forum has been rescheduled to Monday, October 12.

Measure C, the Shasta College Education & Workforce Opportunity Bond, will appear on the November 3, 2026, General Election ballot. Community members are invited to attend one of our upcoming Community Forums to learn more about Measure C, ask questions, and get information directly from Shasta College representatives.

Monday, October 12 at 5:30pm
Shasta College Tehama Center, Building 7200, Room 7206
770 Diamond Avenue, Red Bluff, CA 96080

Saturday, October 17 at 10:30am
Shasta College Trinity Campus
30 Arbuckle Court, Weaverville, CA 96093

Measure C is not a new bond, but an extension of the expiring 2002 Measure A bond. By extending the term of Measure A, the tax rate paid by taxpayers for Shasta College bonds will not increase. Measure C is estimated to cost $7.76 annually per $100,000 of assessed property value—not market value. For the average home in the District, this equates to approximately $2.45 per month. A home with an assessed value of $500,000 would pay approximately $3.25 per month.

This $129 million general obligation bond measure will modernize 60-year-old buildings and facilities while expanding the college’s ability to support public safety services for the region. Projects include building a new agriculture classroom, enhancing hands-on career training by expanding automotive/diesel and welding programs, establishing a new extension site in Corning, and supporting local businesses by strengthening workforce training for in-demand jobs in our community. All new construction and remodels will aim to satisfy stringent energy efficiency targets to reduce the impact on electrical and water resources at the different campuses.

The college welcomes all community members to attend, ask questions, and learn more about Measure C.
