Shasta Supervisors delay censure vote for county clerk amid complaints
Shasta County supervisors delayed a censure vote for County Clerk Clint Curtis amid complaints about his workplace conduct. Two investigations substantiated allegations of threats, campaigning on the job, and retaliation against an employee.
Shasta County supervisors voted to delay a decision on censuring County Clerk Clint Curtis. Investigations found evidence of threats of physical violence, campaigning while on the job, and retaliation against an employee. County staff recommended censuring Curtis, the strongest action the Board of Supervisors can take against an elected official. Curtis denied the allegations, claiming elections office staff are sabotaging him due to their support for his primary election opponent. The board postponed action until after the June primary election, citing concerns about influencing the outcome. Supervisors formally condemned Curtis last October for excluding a member of the press and warned that further issues would lead to censure.
