In the mystical County of Humboldt, where magic and mysticism intertwined with everyday life, the Board of Supervisors gathered for their meeting on the 12th of October, 2024. Among the various matters to be discussed was File #: 24-1651, concerning a Letter of Appreciation to Oscar Mogollon for their service on the Behavioral Health Board.

As the members of the Board of Supervisors settled into their seats, the Clerk of the Board stood up to address them. “Esteemed Board of Supervisors,” he began, “today we are gathered to discuss a matter of great importance - the service of Oscar Mogollon on the Behavioral Health Board.”

The members of the Board nodded in agreement, recognizing the valuable contributions Oscar had made to the community through their work on the Board. Magic and mental health intertwined in Humboldt, and the Behavioral Health Board played a crucial role in ensuring the well-being of the residents.

“I recommend that we authorize the Chair to sign the Letter of Appreciation to Oscar Mogollon,” the Clerk continued. “This small gesture will show our gratitude for their dedication and service to the community.”

The members of the Board of Supervisors unanimously agreed, recognizing the importance of acknowledging and appreciating the hard work of individuals like Oscar who selflessly worked for the betterment of the community.

Once the decision was made, the Chair signed the Letter of Appreciation, and it was sent off to Oscar Mogollon, who received it with heartfelt gratitude. The letter served as a reminder of the impact their work had made and the appreciation felt by the community.

In the magical land of Humboldt, where every action had far-reaching consequences, the simple act of sending a letter of appreciation held great power. It strengthened the bonds between the community members and affirmed the importance of service and dedication to others.

My Dearest Jane,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to you from the trenches, where we are under heavy fire from German artillery. The situation is dire, but my thoughts of you and your love give me strength to carry on.

I wanted to inform you that a vacancy has occurred on the Humboldt County Behavioral Health Board due to the resignation of Oscar Mogolion. Applications are being accepted for the position, and I believe it is important for the Board of Supervisors to receive and file this report.

Please know that despite the chaos and danger surrounding me, you are always in my heart. I pray for the day when this war is over and we can be together again.

With all my love,

Charles

In a Pokemon battle in the County of Humboldt, Clerk/Recorder Squirtle faces off against Board of Supervisors Charmander.

Squirtle, known for its efficiency and attention to detail, starts off by using its Water Gun attack to accurately count and process all valid vote by mail and provisional ballots not included in the election night totals. Charmander, confident in its leadership abilities, counters with a Flamethrower attack to inspect all materials and supplies returned by poll workers.

As the battle continues, Squirtle showcases its dedication by reconciling the number of signatures on the precinct roster with the number of ballots recorded on the ballot statement. However, Charmander proves to be a fierce opponent by counting any valid write-in votes with its powerful Fire Spin attack.

In a surprising turn of events, Squirtle calls on its strategic planning abilities to reproduce any damaged ballots, if necessary, while Charmander uses its strong leadership skills to conduct a hand count of the ballots cast in one percent of the precincts.

Ultimately, after a long and intense battle, Squirtle emerges victorious as the Board of Supervisors accepts the Certified Statement of Results of the Official Canvass for the November 5, 2024, General Election. Both Pokemon show great teamwork and dedication to ensure the election results are certified accurately and efficiently.

To find solutions, for areas off guard
The AFPD annexation, to expand their reach
Securing funding, for those they will teach

(Chorus)
Secured property tax, exchange agreement on the line
For the AFPD, their services will shine
The strategic plan, for safe and healthy communities
Supporting partnerships, for enhanced opportunities

Community fire protection, in the AFPD domain
With Measure Z funds, and staff in place
They’re working together, to win the race

Secured property tax, exchange agreement on the line
For the AFPD, their services will shine
The strategic plan, for safe and healthy communities
Supporting partnerships, for enhanced opportunities

(Outro)
So here’s to the Board, and their decision made
To approve the agreement, and not let it fade
For the people of Humboldt, and the AFPD too
Their safety and well-being, always in view.

Merv “The Beast” Tarkington: Good morning, folks! You’re listening to Merv “The Beast” Tarkington on your favorite right-wing talk show. Today, we’re diving into the latest outrage coming out of Humboldt County.

Now, get this – the Board of Supervisors in Humboldt County is considering accepting a whopping $250,000 grant from the Amalgamated Charitable Foundation. Sounds nice, right? Wrong! This money is being funneled through the Humboldt County Workforce Development Board, and it’s all part of a sneaky plan to advance racial equity and improve economic outcomes for low-income workers.

Folks, let me tell you something – there is no such thing as systemic racism in this country. It’s all a liberal hoax designed to divide us and take away our hard-earned tax dollars. And now, they want to use this grant money to expand translation services, strengthen partnerships with tribal entities, and launch an equity analysis to address so-called “systemic barriers.” Give me a break!

This is just another example of the liberal agenda infiltrating our local government and pushing their radical ideas onto hard-working Americans. They want to empower marginalized populations and promote long-term economic stability in sectors like offshore wind, broadband, and healthcare – all at the expense of the taxpayer.

I say enough is enough! We need to stand up against this socialist takeover and demand that our tax dollars are spent wisely, not on some left-wing agenda to push their divisive policies. It’s time to take back our country and say no to these handouts that only serve to further their own political interests.

So, folks, if you’re as outraged as I am about this latest development in Humboldt County, I urge you to call your Board of Supervisors and tell them to reject this grant money. Let’s put an end to this madness and take back our county from the grip of the radical left. Until next time, this is Merv “The Beast” Tarkington signing off. Stay strong, America!

In the County of Humboldt, a plan was devised,
To boost the economy and make it rise,
A Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy they sought,
To secure funding and support for growth.

The Board of Supervisors gathered on a day,
To discuss and award the RFP in play,
For the amount of $68,000 they did decide,
To Thomas P. Miller & Associates the project would be supplied.

The CEDS document, a crucial tool,
To guide economic development and keep them cool,
With industry clusters and key sectors in mind,
They planned for growth of every kind.

Tourism and Forest Products, among others they sought,
To create jobs and opportunities, that’s what they thought,
The CEDS must be completed and submitted on time,
For federal funding and resources to be in line.

The Board approved the budget, for it was clear,
That economic growth was something to cheer,
With TPMA on board, the work would begin,
To create a plan for success and help Humboldt County win.

So here’s to the County of Humboldt and its economic quest,
May the CEDS bring prosperity and be the best,
For a diverse, equitable, and robust economy they aim,
To ensure a bright future and economic gain.

In the picturesque County of Humboldt, where the rolling hills and lush forests create a backdrop for new beginnings, two unlikely souls found themselves intertwined in a budding romance.

Elena Martinez, a passionate advocate for economic development in the county, had dedicated her career to creating opportunities for those who had been impacted by the prohibition of cannabis. As the head of the Economic Development Division, she had spearheaded the Project Trellis Local Equity Program, a initiative aimed at supporting individuals looking to enter or remain in the legal cannabis market.

One fateful day, during a meeting with the Board of Supervisors, Elena presented a proposal to apply for the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Community Equity Grant through the California Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development. As she outlined the details of the grant application and the impact it would have on the local community, a new member of the board caught her eye.

Ethan Montgomery, a recently appointed supervisor with a background in finance and a passion for social equity, was immediately drawn to Elena’s vision for the Project Trellis program. As he listened to her speak, he couldn’t help but admire her dedication and drive to create a more equitable and robust economy in Humboldt County.

As the meeting came to a close and the board voted to approve the grant application, Elena and Ethan found themselves alone in the conference room. A spark of connection ignited between them, and they soon found themselves embarking on a journey of collaboration and mutual respect.

As they worked closely together on securing the funding for the Project Trellis program, Elena and Ethan found themselves drawn to each other in ways they couldn’t explain. Their late nights spent pouring over budget allocations and grant proposals turned into shared dinners and long walks through the redwood forests.

Despite their professional relationship, Elena and Ethan couldn’t ignore the growing attraction between them. As they navigated the complexities of funding approval and grant disbursement, they also navigated the delicate dance of falling in love.

In the midst of budget meetings and grant deadlines, Elena and Ethan found solace in each other’s company. They shared their hopes and dreams for the future, and gradually, their hearts became intertwined in a love that neither of them could deny.

And as the sun set on another day in the County of Humboldt, Elena and Ethan stood hand in hand, their eyes filled with the promise of a future filled with love, passion, and the shared mission of creating a more equitable world for all.

Detective Mia Johnson had been following the trail of a notorious embezzler who had been siphoning funds from various government departments in the County of Humboldt. Her latest lead brought her to the Department of Health & Human Services (DHHS), where she stumbled upon File #24-1605 during a routine investigation.

As she pored over the details of the file, Mia’s instincts told her that there was more to this seemingly routine hiring request than met the eye. The positions being requested for exemption from the hiring freeze - Administrative Analyst I/II, Budget Specialist, Accounting System Analyst, Mental Health Maintenance Custodian, and Payroll/Personnel Supervisor - seemed oddly specific for a department grappling with budget challenges.

Digging deeper, Mia discovered discrepancies in the financial impact projections outlined in the file. The figures didn’t add up, and it appeared that someone was manipulating the numbers to cover up an elaborate scheme.

With her suspicions aroused, Mia delved into the backgrounds of the individuals occupying the vacated positions and uncovered a web of deceit and corruption. It became clear that someone within the DHHS was using the hiring freeze exemption as a front to siphon off funds for personal gain.

As Mia pieced together the puzzle, she found herself caught in a dangerous game of cat and mouse with the mastermind behind the embezzlement scheme. The stakes were high, and time was running out as she raced against the clock to expose the truth and bring the perpetrators to justice.

In a thrilling climax, Mia unraveled the mystery behind File #24-1605 and brought down the corrupt individuals responsible for exploiting the system for their own selfish gains. And as she closed the case, she knew that her relentless pursuit of justice had once again uncovered the dark underbelly of power and greed in the County of Humboldt.

Socrates: Ah, my friends, we are gathered here today to discuss an important matter brought forward by the Loleta Community Services District. They have petitioned for a Local Coastal Plan Amendment and Zone Reclassification to change the land use and zoning of several properties in the Loleta area. What are your thoughts on this issue?

Plato: It seems that the district is seeking to construct a new wastewater treatment facility adjacent to the existing one, which is currently unable to meet water quality discharge requirements. This change would involve changing the zoning and land use designation from Agriculture Exclusive to Public Facilities.

Aristotle: Yes, and it appears that the district is facing fines for ongoing discharge violations. The new facility would address these issues and support public health objectives.

Socrates: Indeed, it seems that the petition has the potential for public benefit and is consistent with the goals of the Plan. The proposed amendments would facilitate the development of public services and infrastructure to prevent contamination of nearby water sources.

Plato: However, we must also consider the requirements for accepting the petition. The Board must be able to make certain findings, including that the proposed amendments are in the public interest, consistent with the General Plan, and do not reduce residential development potential.

Aristotle: And let us not forget the financial impact of this decision. The applicant is responsible for all costs involved in the processing of the application, so there will be no impact on the General Fund.

Socrates: Considering all of this information, do we believe that the Board should accept the petition and move forward with the proposed amendments?

Plato: I believe that the evidence presented supports accepting the petition. The new wastewater treatment facility would address current issues and support public health objectives, which align with the goals of the Plan.

Aristotle: I agree. The proposed amendments appear to be in the public interest and are consistent with the General Plan. It seems that accepting the petition would be a wise decision in this case.

Socrates: It appears that we have reached a consensus. We recommend that the Board of Supervisors approve the petition and adopt the attached resolution based on the findings included therein. Let us hope that this decision will lead to positive outcomes for the community and the protection of water quality in the Loleta area.

Brothers and sisters, as we come together today, we are faced with a decision that could have a significant impact on our community. The proposal before us from Precision Cannabis Company, LLC, to reclassify the zoning of a parcel of land from Unclassified to Agriculture Exclusive has sparked debate and discussion.

As we consider this petition, it is important for us to remember the principles of stewardship and responsible land use. The land in question is largely undeveloped and has the potential to be used for commercial cannabis cultivation. The owners of the property have followed the necessary steps to enroll with regulatory agencies and seek appropriate permits.

In considering this petition, we must ask ourselves: Is this change in zoning in the public interest? Does it align with the County General Plan and the surrounding land use designations? Does it adhere to the policies and regulations that govern our community?

As we reflect on these questions, let us remember the importance of wise and thoughtful decision-making. It is crucial that we weigh the potential economic benefits of this zoning reclassification against any potential drawbacks or concerns.

Ultimately, it is up to the Board of Supervisors to decide whether to approve the petition and allow for the zoning reclassification. Let us pray for wisdom and discernment as they consider this important matter.

In closing, let us remember our responsibility to care for the land and resources that have been entrusted to us. May we make decisions that honor God and serve the common good of our community. Amen.

In the year 2050, the County of Humboldt had transformed into a futuristic paradise where technology and nature coexisted harmoniously. The formation of Permanent Road Division 1000, Zone No. 010 was a pivotal moment in the county’s development, showcasing the advanced infrastructure and commitment to sustainable transportation networks.

In the heart of Humboldt County, lies the Washington Terrace Subdivision in McKinleyville, a bustling community surrounded by lush greenery and cutting-edge architecture. The residents of Washington Terrace had long awaited the establishment of PRD 1000, Zone No. 010, knowing that it would bring much-needed maintenance to their roads and drainage facilities.

As the public hearing began on December 10, 2050, the Board of Supervisors listened intently to the testimonies of the residents. Voices of support echoed through the room, expressing gratitude for the opportunity to improve the quality of life in their community.

However, amidst the discussions of parcel charges and maintenance cycles, a mysterious figure stood in the back of the room, unnoticed by all except for one keen-eyed resident. The stranger’s presence sent chills down the spine of the observant resident, who couldn’t shake the feeling that something was amiss.

As the hearing drew to a close and the ballots were tallied, a sense of unease lingered in the air. The Board of Supervisors prepared to make their decision, unaware of the impending danger lurking in the shadows.

Just as the resolution to establish PRD 1000, Zone No. 010 was about to be adopted, the lights flickered, and the room plunged into darkness. Panic ensued as the residents scrambled to find their way in the pitch-black room, their voices filled with fear and confusion.

Suddenly, a voice boomed through the darkness, chilling the bones of all who heard it. The mysterious figure revealed themselves as an alien entity, declaring their intention to sabotage the formation of the PRD and disrupt the county’s plans for progress.

In a moment of bravery, the observant resident stepped forward, confronting the alien with determination in their eyes. Through quick thinking and resourcefulness, they managed to activate an emergency power source, illuminating the room once more.

With the alien’s true form exposed, the residents and the Board of Supervisors rallied together, united in their mission to protect their community. Through a combined effort of technology and human ingenuity, they were able to thwart the alien’s plans and ensure the establishment of PRD 1000, Zone No. 010.

In the aftermath of the ordeal, the residents of Washington Terrace celebrated their victory, grateful for their newfound unity and resilience. The alien threat may have been vanquished, but the memory of that fateful day lived on as a reminder of the strength and courage that lay within the people of Humboldt County. And so, the county’s journey towards a brighter future continued, fueled by innovation, determination, and a sense of community unlike any other.

Fred: Alright gang, according to the latest information from the County of Humboldt, there have been some strange occurrences surrounding the lease agreements with Rynecki and Rynecki, LLC and 2nd and H Street, LLC.

Shaggy: Jeepers, Scoob! Let’s get out of here!

(Meanwhile, Velma, Daphne, and Fred explore the office space, finding old documents and files scattered around.)

Velma: Interesting, it looks like there have been previous lease agreements signed here. But why would they be haunted?

Daphne: Maybe there’s something hidden within these agreements that we need to uncover.

Fred: Let’s regroup with Scooby and Shaggy and put all the pieces together.

(As they come back together, they discuss their findings and discover a hidden clause in the lease agreements that states the property is haunted by the spirits of past tenants.)

Velma: It looks like the previous tenants were disturbed by something supernatural, which is why they didn’t renew their leases.

Daphne: So, the rumors of hauntings were true all along!

Fred: We need to confront the spirits and find out why they are haunting this place. Let’s set a trap!

(Using their wits and teamwork, the gang sets a trap to capture the ghosts haunting the property. They uncover the truth behind the mysterious occurrences and help the spirits find peace.)

Scooby: (proudly) Roooby-rooby-roo!

Shaggy: Like, another mystery solved by Mystery Inc.!

“The Contract”

[Jerry and George are sitting at Monk’s Cafe, discussing the latest project in Humboldt County.]

Jerry: So, George, have you heard about this road maintenance project in Humboldt County?

George: No, I haven’t. What’s going on?

Jerry: It’s like a clash of old and new, tradition and progress. And we get to witness it all through this contract.

George: I smell a potential lawsuit brewing. This could be better than anything on TV.

[Cut to Jerry doing a stand-up bit at the Comedy Club.]

Jerry: So, they say money can’t buy happiness, but have you ever tried not paying a contractor for a job well done? It’s a real-life sitcom waiting to happen. Who knew road maintenance could be so entertaining?

In Eureka we’ll march, in a grand crusade,
With equipment from Public Works, we’ll make them proud,

(Scene from an Arthur Miller play: “The Deputization”)

(Sheriff enters the Board of Supervisors meeting room with a sense of urgency, carrying a pile of papers in his hands. He approaches the podium and begins to address the Board.)

Sheriff: Ladies and gentlemen of the Board, I come before you today with a proposal that I believe is crucial for the safety and well-being of our community. The Deputization Agreement between the Blue Lake Rancheria Tribe, the County of Humboldt, and the Sheriff of Humboldt County is a vital step towards enhancing law enforcement resources on the Rancheria.

(Board members listen attentively, some nodding in agreement while others furrow their brows in contemplation.)

Sheriff: The Blue Lake Rancheria Tribal Council has agreed to the terms of the agreement, in compliance with California Penal Code Sections 830.6 and 830.8. By deputizing qualified Blue Lake Tribal Police officers, we can ensure a more efficient and effective enforcement of state laws within the boundaries of the Blue Lake Rancheria.

(Board members exchange glances, some whispering to each other as they discuss the implications of the agreement.)

Sheriff: It is important to note that all costs associated with this agreement will be covered by the Blue Lake Rancheria Tribe. Any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the county will be reimbursed by the Tribe. This partnership is a win-win for both parties, as it will not only enhance public safety on the Rancheria but also alleviate the financial burden on the county.

(Board members seem to be considering the Sheriff’s words carefully, weighing the benefits and potential drawbacks of the agreement.)

Sheriff: I urge you, members of the Board, to approve this Deputization Agreement. By doing so, we can support and sustain partnerships between public safety agencies and enhance public safety in our communities. This is a pivotal moment in our efforts to create safe and healthy communities for all residents of Humboldt County.

(The Sheriff takes a deep breath, his gaze sweeping across the room as he waits for a response from the Board.)

(Board members deliberate amongst themselves, their expressions torn between caution and optimism. Finally, the Board Chair stands and addresses the Sheriff.)

Board Chair: Sheriff, we appreciate your dedication to ensuring the safety of our community. After careful consideration, the Board has come to a decision. We hereby approve the Deputization Agreement between the Blue Lake Rancheria Tribe, the County of Humboldt, and the Sheriff of Humboldt County. Thank you for bringing this important matter to our attention.

(Sheriff nods in gratitude, a sense of relief washing over him as he steps away from the podium. The Board members begin to disperse, their murmurs filled with a sense of accomplishment and anticipation for the future.)

Conspiracy Theory: The Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office is using the Boating Safety and Enforcement Financial Aid Program as a front to conduct illegal surveillance operations on the citizens of Humboldt County. The resolution to accept funding from California State Parks and Recreation, Division of Boating and Waterways is just a cover story to justify the Sheriff’s Department’s increased presence on the waterways. In reality, the Sheriff and his deputies are using the funds to purchase high-tech surveillance equipment to monitor and track the movements of residents who frequent the local marinas and boat ramps. This surveillance program is part of a larger government conspiracy to gather data on the population and control their movements under the guise of boating safety. The Sheriff’s Department is working in collaboration with other law enforcement agencies and government organizations to implement a widespread surveillance network that infringes on the privacy and civil liberties of the people of Humboldt County. The goal of this covert operation is to create a surveillance state where every move and action of the citizens is monitored and controlled by authorities. It is up to the vigilant citizens of Humboldt County to uncover this conspiracy and fight against the erosion of their freedoms and rights.

(Verse 1)
In the County of Humboldt, where the redwoods stand tall
There’s a story of heartache, I’ll tell you all
The Board of Supervisors, they had a decree
To restrict our parking, in Orick and Arcata, you see

(Chorus)
Oh, the flames of burning RVs light up the night
Illegal dumping of garbage, a sad and sorry sight
Our freedom to roam, taken away
By parking restrictions, we can’t stay

(Verse 2)
On Drydens Road and Jackson Ranch too
Our parking rights, they bid adieu
The cost of signs, five hundred dollars at least
But the Road Fund’s in trouble, can’t afford this feast

(Chorus)
Oh, the flames of burning RVs light up the night
Illegal dumping of garbage, a sad and sorry sight
Our freedom to roam, taken away
By parking restrictions, we can’t stay

(Bridge)
The Road Fund is broke, FEMA be damned
We’re caught in a bind, can’t meet the demand
The Sheriff and CHP, they’re on board
But our hearts are heavy, with this new accord

(Chorus)
Oh, the flames of burning RVs light up the night
Illegal dumping of garbage, a sad and sorry sight
Our freedom to roam, taken away
By parking restrictions, we can’t stay

(Outro)
In the County of Humboldt, where the redwoods stand tall
There’s a story of heartache, I’ve told you all
The parking restrictions, they cut like a knife
In Orick and Arcata, we’re losing our way of life

Once upon a time, in the beautiful County of Humboldt, there was a small town called Fields Landing. The town was known for its serene landscapes and friendly community. However, there was one problem that troubled the residents of Fields Landing - the busy Railroad Avenue.

Every day, cars would park haphazardly along Railroad Avenue, causing traffic congestion and safety hazards for pedestrians and drivers alike. The Department of Public Works recognized the issue and decided to take action by introducing a new ordinance to amend the parking restrictions on Railroad Avenue.

The Board of Supervisors gathered to discuss the ordinance, and after much deliberation, they decided to introduce the new regulations. The ordinance stated that parking on Railroad Avenue would be restricted between the hours of 12:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. to improve traffic safety in the area.

The residents of Fields Landing were thrilled to hear about the new parking restrictions. They knew that it would make their town a safer place for everyone. The Department of Public Works worked diligently to install the necessary signage and make sure that the changes were implemented smoothly.

As time passed, the residents of Fields Landing noticed a significant improvement in traffic flow and safety along Railroad Avenue. The town felt more peaceful and harmonious, thanks to the efforts of the Board of Supervisors and the Department of Public Works.

One evening, as the sun set over the quiet town of Fields Landing, the children gathered around for a bedtime story. Their parents told them about the importance of following rules and regulations to keep their community safe and prosperous. The children listened intently, knowing that they were lucky to live in such a caring and proactive town.

And so, as the children drifted off to sleep, they dreamt of a bright future for Fields Landing, where everyone worked together to make their town a better place for all. And with the new parking restrictions in place, they knew that their town was on the right track towards a safer and healthier community.

The End.
