Ode to K9 GraySea Friedrichsen, loyal friend,
Who served with honor for a decade long,
Her wagging tail did joy and love extend,
In search of those who’d done the community wrong.

Retirement Resolution we now proclaim,
To thank her for her dedication true,
For all the times she bravely played the game,
And kept our streets safe, through and through.

No financial impact shall this act bring,
But rather, pride and gratitude immense,
For her service to the County of Humboldt’s ring,
And all the lives she helped to enhance.

So let us raise a toast to GraySea dear,
For her retirement now draws near.

Au comté de Humboldt, le deux onze février
Le Conseil des Superviseurs se réunit un grand jour
Pour proclamer ce mois de février vingt-vingt-cinq
Comme le Mois de l’Histoire des Noirs, tout en un refrain

Superviseur Mike Wilson propose avec ferveur
De signer cette proclamation, en l’honneur
Des Noirs et de leur richesse culturelle
Leur contribution, leur force, leur éternelle bataille

Ce Mois de l’Histoire des Noirs, un rappel puissant
De notre chemin vers l’équité et le droit, maintenant
Par le dialogue, l’activisme, l’alliance solidaire
On brise les barrières, pour un avenir meilleur à faire taire

A travers ces efforts collectifs, le comté grandit
Dans l’unité, le respect, l’empathie, on s’unit
Pour honorer et reconnaître l’héritage noir
Au-delà d’un simple mois, dans un même espoir

Ce Mois de l’Histoire des Noirs, un symbole d’espoir
Pour un avenir où la diversité, chaque voix, sans désespoir
Seront célébrés, écoutés, reconnus, valorisés
Dans un comté de Humboldt où la justice est assurée

Pas d’impact financier pour cette cérémonie
Juste un geste symbolique, une oscillation en harmonie
Pour célébrer, honorer, reconnaître la grandeur
Du Mois de l’Histoire des Noirs, en Humboldt, en douceur

Alors honorons cette tradition, cette histoire
En signant cette proclamation, en ce soir
Pour féliciter, remercier, reconnaître
Le Mois de l’Histoire des Noirs, en Humboldt, en fierté

Au comté de Humboldt, le deux onze février
Le Mois de l’Histoire des Noirs, enfin réclamé
Ensemble, unis, dans la diversité et la solidarité
Pour un avenir meilleur, dans l’équité, la fraternité.

Conspiracy theory: The modifications to the County of Humboldt Project Trellis Cannabis Local Equity Program Manual are actually a cover-up for a secret government experiment involving mind control and manipulation. The government is using the grant funding to target specific individuals in the cannabis industry and implant them with microchips that will allow them to be controlled remotely. By prioritizing payments on behalf of awardees to pay past-due local cannabis excise taxes, Planning and Building fees, and property taxes, the government is ensuring that these individuals remain compliant and under their control. The retroactive amendment to the LEP is just a smokescreen to distract from the true intentions of the program. The state’s involvement with the California Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development is just a front for their sinister plot to create a network of mind-controlled individuals in the cannabis industry. Beware of the government’s hidden agenda and the manipulation tactics they are using under the guise of a cannabis equity program.

(Verse 1)
In the County of Humboldt, where the redwoods stand tall
There’s a need for shelter, for those who may fall
Into hard times, without a place to call home
But hope is on the horizon, no one is alone

(Chorus)
We’re fighting for housing, for those in need
Standing tall together, planting the seed
Accepting the funding, from the state above
To help our brothers and sisters, with kindness and love

(Verse 2)
Through the THP and HNMP, we’ll pave the way
For young adults in need, to find their stay
Coordinating services, reaching out a hand
To those in the child welfare system, helping them stand

(Chorus)
We’re fighting for housing, for those in need
Standing tall together, planting the seed
Accepting the funding, from the state above
To help our brothers and sisters, with kindness and love

(Bridge)
With the Social Services Fund, we’ll make it right
Reimbursing staff, day and night
No one left behind, no one left out
Together we’ll thrive, without a doubt

(Chorus)
We’re fighting for housing, for those in need
Standing tall together, planting the seed
Accepting the funding, from the state above
To help our brothers and sisters, with kindness and love

(Outro)
In the County of Humboldt, we’ll never give up
Helping our community, raising them up
With housing for all, we’ll make it through
Together we stand, me and you.

The Board of Supervisors in Humboldt County had gathered for their meeting on February 11, 2025, to discuss and approve various professional services agreements related to the CalFresh Program. The Department of Health and Human Services - Social Services had recommended the approval of these agreements to expand outreach and support services for eligible households. The Board, eager to improve the health and economic stability of the community, quickly moved to vote in favor of the recommendation.

As the agreements were signed and sealed, a sense of unease began to settle over the room. The air grew colder, and the lights flickered ominously. Whispers could be heard echoing in the halls, even though no one was speaking. The once bustling and lively meeting had now turned into a scene of terror and confusion.

One by one, the members of the Board started to experience strange and unsettling events. Shadows darted across the walls, and cold fingers seemed to brush against their skin. Some reported hearing the sound of desperate cries coming from empty rooms, while others claimed to see ghostly figures hovering in the corners.

As the night wore on, the Board members realized they were not alone in the building. Something malevolent and dark had been unleashed with the signing of those agreements. It seemed as though the spirits of those who had struggled with hunger and poverty were now haunting the very place that was meant to help them.

Frantic and terrified, the Board members tried to leave the building, only to find that the doors were locked tight and the windows refused to budge. They were trapped in a nightmare of their own making, surrounded by the vengeful spirits that had been summoned by their actions.

In the end, it is said that the building where the meeting took place became known as a place of great sorrow and fear. Those who dared to enter would hear the echoes of the past, the whispered pleas for help from those who had been forgotten and abandoned. And the Board of Supervisors, haunted by the consequences of their decisions, would forever be tormented by the spirits they had unleashed.

In the County of Humboldt, on a meeting day so fine,
The Board of Supervisors met at half-past nine.
They discussed a plan for foster youth in need,
To provide them support, to help them succeed.

Redwood Community Services, Inc. was their choice,
To offer mobile response and give them a voice.
Stabilization and support they will provide,
To keep children safe and help them thrive.

The Chair of the Board was given the task,
To sign the agreement and make it last.
For four hundred fifty thousand, seven hundred ninety-six,
They approved the funds to help these kids fix.

The Family Urgent Response System they’ll create,
To help children and youth during times of debate.
So let’s give a cheer for the work they will do,
To support foster children, to help them shine through.

Captain Jean-Luc Picard sat in his ready room, reviewing the latest updates from Starfleet Command when his communicator beeped. It was Commander Data informing him of an urgent message from the County of Humboldt. Curious as to why a local government was reaching out to the USS Enterprise, Picard instructed Data to bring up the message.

As the text filled the screen, Picard read through the details of a professional services agreement with Redwood Community Services, Inc. regarding the provision of high-fidelity wraparound services to children and youth at risk of being placed in foster care due to their involvement in the child welfare or juvenile justice systems. The mention of vulnerable populations and the implementation of trauma-informed care practices caught Picard’s attention. He knew the importance of protecting those in need, both on Earth and throughout the galaxy.

After consulting with his senior officers, Picard made the decision to divert the USS Enterprise to Humboldt County to offer assistance. The crew, always eager to help those in need, quickly mobilized to transport personnel and resources to aid Redwood Community Services, Inc. in their mission.

Upon arrival, the Enterprise team worked alongside the local social services department to provide additional support and expertise. They utilized their advanced technology and knowledge of psychology and counseling to enhance the wraparound services being offered to the children and youth in need.

Through their collaboration, the Enterprise crew and Redwood Community Services, Inc. were able to make a significant impact on the lives of those facing difficult circumstances. The children and youth received the care and attention they deserved, setting them on a path toward stability and healing.

As the Enterprise prepared to depart Humboldt County, Captain Picard commended his crew for their dedication to helping others and thanked Redwood Community Services, Inc. for their tireless efforts in serving their community. The experience served as a reminder of the importance of compassion and support, no matter where in the universe it may be needed.

Verse 1:
In the County of Humboldt, where the heartache runs deep
The Sheriff’s office is counting its losses, trying to keep
Fighting the battle against undocumented crime
But the funding they need is running out, it’s a sign

Chorus:
Accept the grant, they say, it’s the only way
To keep our community safe, to fight another day
But the pain of cutting corners, the cost of losing hope
Is a burden we carry, like a noose around our throat

Verse 2:
For years we’ve been struggling, making ends meet
Using overtime to fill the gaps, to keep our feet
But now the funds are drying up, the well is running dry
And the Sheriff’s office is left wondering why

Chorus:
Accept the grant, they say, it’s the only way
To keep our community safe, to fight another day
But the pain of cutting corners, the cost of losing hope
Is a burden we carry, like a noose around our throat

Bridge:
In a world that’s filled with uncertainty and fear
We cling to the hope that help is near
But when the money runs out, and the future looks bleak
We’re left with nothing but tears on our cheeks

Chorus:
Accept the grant, they say, it’s the only way
To keep our community safe, to fight another day
But the pain of cutting corners, the cost of losing hope
Is a burden we carry, like a noose around our throat

Outro:
So here we stand, in the County of Humboldt, with our hearts on our sleeve
Praying for a miracle, trying to believe
That someday the funding will come, the burden will lift
And we’ll find our way out of this heartbreaking drift.

Title: The Tax Man Cometh

[Jerry and George are sitting in Jerry’s apartment, discussing their latest financial woes]

Jerry: I can’t believe how much money I owe in taxes this year. It’s like they just keep taking and taking.

George: Tell me about it. I feel like I’m constantly swimming in debt. Maybe we should start looking for some unconventional ways to make some extra cash.

Jerry: Like what? Selling our plasma or becoming human guinea pigs for medical experiments?

George: Hey, desperate times call for desperate measures.

[Meanwhile, Elaine bursts into the apartment, clearly distressed]

Elaine: Guys, you won’t believe what just happened. I just got a notice in the mail saying that my property is going to be auctioned off because I haven’t paid my taxes in years.

Jerry: You own property?

Elaine: Well, technically it’s a tiny plot of land that my grandmother left me in Humboldt County. I totally forgot about it.

George: You mean to tell me you’ve been sitting on valuable property this whole time and you didn’t even know it?

Elaine: It’s not valuable, it’s just a patch of dirt in the middle of nowhere.

Jerry: Well, you better do something about it before you end up homeless. Who knows, maybe you’ll make a fortune at the auction.

Elaine: Ugh, this is just my luck. I have no idea how I’m going to deal with this.

[Cut to Jerry and Elaine walking into the County of Humboldt Treasurer/Tax Collector’s office]

Jerry: Excuse me, we’re here to inquire about the auction of tax-defaulted properties.

Treasurer/Tax Collector: Ah, you must be Elaine Benes. We’ve been trying to reach you about your overdue taxes.

Elaine: Yes, that’s me. Can you please tell me what I need to do to stop my property from being auctioned off?

Treasurer/Tax Collector: Well, you’ll need to pay off your delinquent taxes as soon as possible. Otherwise, your property will be sold at an upcoming public auction.

Elaine: How much do I owe?

Treasurer/Tax Collector: Let me check… Oh my, it looks like you owe quite a hefty sum. But don’t worry, you still have time to make a payment before the auction date.

[Cut to Elaine frantically trying to come up with the money to pay off her taxes]

Elaine: This is a nightmare. Where am I going to find this kind of money on such short notice?

Jerry: Maybe you should consider selling the property yourself before it goes to auction. At least that way you’ll have some control over the situation.

Elaine: That’s not a bad idea. I’ll see if I can find a buyer willing to take it off my hands.

[Cut to the day of the auction, where Elaine nervously watches as her property is put up for bidding]

Auctioneer: And now up for auction, we have a tax-defaulted property in Humboldt County. Do I hear any bids?

Elaine: [whispers to herself] Please let this go for a decent price.

[Bidding escalates until finally, a mystery bidder wins the property]

Auctioneer: Sold to the gentleman in the back! Congratulations on your new piece of land.

[The bidder approaches Elaine, revealing himself to be Newman]

Newman: Well, well, well, Elaine Benes. It looks like I’ve just become your new landlord. Time to pay up, my dear.

Elaine: You? Of all people? This is a disaster.

[Jerry and George watch in amusement as Elaine’s predicament unfolds]

Jerry: Looks like Elaine’s tax troubles just went from bad to worse.

George: Only she could end up owing money to Newman of all people.

[The episode ends with Elaine and Newman arguing over the terms of their new landlord-tenant relationship]

(Verse 1)
In the County of Humboldt, on a meeting date
The Board of Supervisors had an important debate
About a Water Diversion Agreement, so crucial and grand
To protect the Eel River and its fish, across the land

(Chorus)
Oh, Humboldt County, you’re taking a stand
To protect the Eel River, with an outstretched hand
With an MOU in place, and a new facility near
You’re ensuring the river flows, crystal clear

From Scott Dam to Cape Horn, PG&E’s project must end
And a new facility must be built, with care to mend
The Eel River’s ecosystems, its fish and its flow
So future generations can continue to grow

(Chorus)
Oh, Humboldt County, you’re taking a stand
To protect the Eel River, with an outstretched hand
With an MOU in place, and a new facility near
You’re ensuring the river flows, crystal clear

With partnerships and agreements, you’re paving the way
For sustainable natural resources, every single day
Striving for climate adaptation, in all that you do

Oh, Humboldt County, you’re taking a stand
To protect the Eel River, with an outstretched hand
With an MOU in place, and a new facility near
You’re ensuring the river flows, crystal clear

So let’s raise a toast, to Humboldt’s work so fine
Protecting the Eel River, for all of time
With the Board of Supervisors leading the way
Humboldt County, you’re here to stay!

Socrates: Greetings, my dear fellow philosophers. Today, we gather to discuss the presentation from Wild Souls Ranch regarding their First Responder Program funding.

Phaedrus: Indeed, Socrates. Supervisor Michelle Bushnell has recommended that we receive and file the presentation. It seems that Wild Souls Ranch offers valuable services to at-risk youth in Humboldt County through equine-assisted learning.

Socrates: Ah, yes. It is admirable that they provide a safe and supportive environment for young individuals to engage in personal growth and emotional healing. And now, they have extended these services to emergency responders through the First Responder Pilot Program.

Phaedrus: It is indeed a noble cause to offer alternative healing options, such as equine-assisted growth and learning sessions, to those who may be suffering from job-related post-traumatic stress disorder.

Socrates: But, my dear Phaedrus, do you think it is appropriate for the Board of Supervisors to allocate funding from the General Fund for this program? Shouldn’t we consider other alternatives or perhaps seek collaboration with other agencies?

Phaedrus: That is a valid point, Socrates. While the services provided by Wild Souls Ranch are commendable, we must ensure that the allocation of funds aligns with our strategic plan and priorities as a governing body. Perhaps we should further discuss the financial and strategic implications before making a decision.

Socrates: Indeed, Phaedrus. It is essential for us to exercise prudence and consider all alternatives before reaching a decision. Let us delve deeper into the discussion and explore the potential impact of funding the First Responder Program at Wild Souls Ranch.
