• Marriage licenses: Sept. 11 – Sept. 24, 2026 (plumassun.org) — Several Quincy couples received marriage licenses from the Plumas County Clerk-Recorder between Sept. 11 and 24, including pairs on Sept. 11, 22, and 24. The list also highlights licenses issued to nearby Portola, Sparks, and Westwood residents, offering a quick snapshot of recent unions across the county.
• Positive change expected from second FCMAT report (plumassun.org) — Quincy schools are at the center of major changes as officials anticipate a positive state FCMAT report that could help Plumas Unified regain local control and reshape district finances. Trustee seats representing Quincy and East Quincy are on the ballot or appointment list, Pioneer campus is being repurposed for childcare and community programs, and Quincy schools are seeing notable enrollment declines.
• 9 Mountain Towns In California So Affordable Retirees Say They Wish They Moved Sooner (takingthekids.com) — Quincy is showcased as an appealing retirement spot, with its postcard-worthy courthouse, local museum, and easy access to the Feather River and Plumas National Forest. The piece notes that housing and daily costs can feel more manageable than in many California communities, while still offering a hospital, community college, and four-season mountain scenery that rewards residents who enjoy a slower pace.
