📰 News we're reading
• June 22, 2026 - June 28, 2026 (ptreyeslight.com) — Recent sheriff’s logs show several Inverness-area incidents, including a car hitting a tree on Ottinger’s Hill, medical calls, and a search for a missing swimmer and child off Shell Beach. The week’s reports also cover crashes, medical calls, and unusual behavior across nearby towns, offering a snapshot of public safety activity around Tomales Bay communities. 
• Jury calls for consolidation of districts (ptreyeslight.com) — Inverness residents are part of a broader Marin push to streamline special districts, even though the Inverness Public Utility District isn’t required to formally respond to the civil grand jury’s new report. Local leaders highlight existing collaborations—like shared FEMA grants, emergency water interties, and joint regulatory work—while warning that forced consolidation could overlook the unique needs of small coastal communities like Inverness and its neighbors.
