  • Annual 2016 Report
    2016 ANNUAL REPORT INTEGRITY OWNERSHIP RESPECT EXCELLENCE TEAMWORK Dear Shareholders & Friends The year 2016 was an exciting period of growth and change for Bank of Commerce Holdings (BOCH). During the first quarter, we completed the acquisition of five offices from Bank of America which brought almost $150 million of new low cost deposits to our company. Throughout the entire year our real estate, commercial, consumer and SBA sales teams continued to successfully add significant loan and deposit totals to our balance sheet. For the year, loans increased $88 million (12%) and deposits increased $201 million (25%). As many of you already know, the liquidity provided by our branch acquisition was used to reconfigure our balance sheet. We were able to eliminate our approximately $100 million reliance on brokered and wholesale funding sources and we cancelled the associated interest rate hedge contract which would have been increasingly costly into the future. For the first time in many years we funded all of our loan growth with traditional core deposits. The strategic shift from wholesale funding to traditional core funding was costly, which is reflected in our earnings for the year of $5.3 million ($0.39 per share), a 37% decline from the prior year. We firmly believe that it was the correct decision and is a key component for executing on our future corporate initiatives. The company has made many advances over the past 36 months. With a return to relying on traditional funding sources combined with severing the tie to our former mortgage subsidiary (2014), the redemption of $20 million SBLF preferred stock (2015), the growth of our SBA division, the hiring of an expanded sales force in Sacramento and reductions in nonperforming assets, we are now prepared to be a stronger competitive force in northern California.

    2004 NORTH VALLEY BANCORP ANNUAL REPORT SACRAMENTO WE SERVE. VISION: TO BE THE MOSTSUCCESSFUL FINANCIAL SERVICES FINANCIAL PROVIDER IN THE MARKETS PROVIDE outstanding customer service in the delivery of competitive, innovative financial services and products. Continue to ACHIEVE consistent superior-to-peer investment returns for our shareholders. DEVELOP strong, mutually beneficial relationships with our customers. MISSION Be a positive corporate citizen – CONTRIBUTE human and financial resources to a variety of worthwhile community activities. CREATE an environment that provides opportunities for personal and professional growth. What a challenging and rewarding year 2004 was! Both North Valley Bancorp and the industry went through some dramatic changes during the year. For North Valley it was our acquisition of Yolo Community Bank, and for the industry it was Sarbanes-Oxley (“SOX”). This new legislation has fundamentally changed the way business transactions are executed and has changed the face of the auditing profession. SOX Section 404 had a direct impact on the Company as it cost North Valley over $200,000 to implement this section of SOX, in addition to all of the other corporate governance changes required by this legislation. On the more positive side, our August 31 acquisition of Yolo Community Bank was a big accomplishment in that we gained entry into higher growth markets around the Sacramento area. We were also able to integrate their back office and all their systems into North Valley Bancorp’s by the end of November in order to begin to gain efficiencies and grow on a single platform. Total shareholder return for 2004 was 29.9% as a result of stock price appreciation and cash dividends.

Nevada drew to herself the pick of California," so wrote Nevada journalist C. C. Goodwin in describing the difference between the California gold rush and Nevada's silver boom. It was the difference in demographics that allowed any number of avenues to be used by those rushing to California for gold, while some selective few routes were used and gained fame by those rushing from California into Nevada for silver. One of those routes, second only in use and fame to the Placerville Road, is Sierra County's Henness Pass Route. While it was the 1859 rush to the Nevada Comstock that assured the route's survival into the following century, it was the California gold rush that founded the route's origin. Following the discovery of gold on the south fork of the American River in January of 1848, the resulting influx of miners overwhelmed an area with few developed roads. {Please turn to page 3] Page 2 THE SIERRAN FalllWinter 1999 SIERRA COUNTY SIERRA COUNTY HISTORICAL SOCIETY HISTORICAL SOCIETY MEMBERSHIP REPORT The Sierra County Historical Society is an We welcome these new members since our Spring organization of people interested in preserving and edition of the SIERRAN.

  • Emergency Services / 2015 Update to the Placer
    PLACER COUNTY OFFICE OF EMERGENCY SERVICES MEMORANDUM To: Honorable Board of Supervisors From: David Boesch, County Executive Officer by: John McEldowney, Program Manager of Emergency Services Date: November 17, 2015 Subject: 2015 Update to the Placer Operational Area Eastside Emergency Evacuation Plan ACTION REQUESTED Adopt a Resolution Enacting the 2015 Update to the Placer Operational Area Eastside Emergency Evacuation Plan. BACKGROUND This is a plan for the conduct of a physical evacuation of one or more communities in the unincorporated area on the eastern side of Placer County. This plan is necessitated by a larger incident, most probably a forest fire or flood. For the purposes of this plan, the "eastern side" comprises all of Placer County from just west of Cisco Grove to the Nevada State line not including the areas within the Tahoe National Forest and the Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit. The dense forests, rugged terrain, and the scarcity of roads in the area are problems that present difficulties for first responders and residents alike. These problems would complicate any emergency evacuation operation. Whereas the potential exists for severe winter storms, mass casualty incidents or floods on the eastern side, forest fire remains the greatest single threat to communities. For all but the wettest of months, homes and businesses in wildland-urban interface areas are particularly susceptible to fire damage and destruction. During fire season, the combination of dense forests, heavy fuel loads, low humidity, potential for high winds and the steep terrain in the Sierra Nevada's can rapidly turn even small fires into lethal, major disasters.

  • DECISION RECORD South Yuba River Wild & Scenic River Eligibility Study Report Final Environmental Impact Statement Bureau of Land Management Folsom Field Office
    Record of Decision Twenty-two Westside Rivers Wild and Scenic Study Report and Final Environmental Impact Statement USDA FOREST SERVICE TAHOE NATIONAL FOREST PLUMAS NATIONAL FOREST El Dorado, Nevada, Placer, Plumas, Sierra, and Yuba Counties California I. DECISION It is my decision to adopt the Preferred Alternative, Alternative C, as presented in the Twenty-two Westside Rivers Wild and Scenic River Study Report and Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS). This decision amends the Tahoe Land and Resource Management Plan and Plumas Land and Resource Management Plan to provide interim protection language for the three recommended rivers. The heart of this decision is my recommendation that Canyon Creek, North Yuba River, and lower South Yuba River be designated recreation and scenic Rivers pursuant to the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act (16 U.S.C. 1271-1287, Public Law 90-542 October 2, 1968). Upon Congressional designation of Canyon Creek, North Yuba River, and the lower South Yuba River, three rivers that are the best representatives of the westside, northern Sierra Nevada streams, they would be added to the National Wild and Scenic River System. More specifically, my recommendation, a "preliminary recommendation," is to the Pacific Southwest Region's Regional Forester. If he concurs, the recommendation will be forwarded to the Chief of the Forest Service, then to the Secretary of Agriculture, who will ultimately make a recommendation to Congress for legislative consideration. At each level of review there is a possibility the recommendation could be returned to the Forest and cooperators for further evaluation and revisions. My decision covers all affected Tahoe National Forest System lands.
