(Chorus)
Yo ho, the Board of Supervisors, in the County of Humboldt
Meeting on the shores, decisions to uphold

(Verse 1)
On the fifteenth of April in twenty twenty-five
They gathered together to keep the county alive
File number twenty-five, five two one
On the agenda, actions to be done

(Chorus)
Yo ho, the Board of Supervisors, in the County of Humboldt
Meeting on the shores, decisions to uphold

(Verse 2)
Recommendation approved, majority rule
To sign the Minute Book, keep the records cool
Supporting core services, category nine nine nine
Financially sound, no impact on the line

(Chorus)
Yo ho, the Board of Supervisors, in the County of Humboldt
Meeting on the shores, decisions to uphold

(Verse 3)
No other agencies involved, just the Board
Editing if necessary, a different chord
For the County of Humboldt, they stand tall
Like sailors on a ship, ready for the call

(Chorus)
Yo ho, the Board of Supervisors, in the County of Humboldt
Meeting on the shores, decisions to uphold

(Outro)
So raise a glass to the Board of Supervisors true
In the County of Humboldt, they know what to do
On land or on sea, they steer the ship right
For the good of the county, day and night!

Tae ratify the EDA grant agreement, you see,
Approve the execution o the grant wi’ glee,
And the CAO’s amendment, sae it may be.

Subject tae review by County Counsel and Risk Management leads,
In support o a Diverse, Equitable & Robust Economy,
Promotin’ economic resiliency, that’s the key.

Seventy thousand dollars for CEDS, we ken where it’s run,
A county match o seventy-three grand frae General Fund,
Tae develop a strategy fur Humboldt, sae grand.

Extensions granted tae complete the work,
Engagement activities, surveys, meetings, nae shirk,
Ratification required, an oversight found,
But funds must be preserved, the CEDS abounds.

Economic Development seeks approval this day,
For ratification o grants, tae no delay,
Let the CAO execute, with Board’s blessing,
Guided by County Counsel, aye, the profession.

Funds from General Fund and EDA grant,
Supportin’ economic growth, sae avant,
No impact on staff wi’ this approval gie,
Let Humboldt County thrive, let it be.

EDA involvement is key in this affair,
Alternatives few, approval is rare,
Attachments include agreements o grant,
Previous actions noted, we chant.

O County o Humboldt, let progress thrive,
Ratify, approve, let CEDS survive,
In the heart o Scotland, we stand united,
For the betterment o all, we are guided.

Conspiracy Theory: The appointment of Ms. Jayne Messenger to the Telegraph Ridge Fire Protection District Board of Directors is actually part of a secret government plan to control the flow of information in the region. Ms. Jayne Messenger is not who she appears to be - she is actually a highly trained government operative planted to monitor and manipulate the decisions of the fire protection district board. By controlling the board, the government can influence emergency response protocols, access to critical resources, and ultimately maintain control over the population of Humboldt County. This appointment is just the beginning of a larger scheme to exert total control over the county’s infrastructure and population. Stay vigilant, citizens of Humboldt - the government is watching.

Listen up Board of Supervisors, DHHS Administration is coming for you! We need an exception to the hiring freeze so we can bring in a Payroll/Personnel Specialist and a Program Manager to run this show. Don’t even think about denying us, because we’ve got mandates to meet and disasters to prepare for. And don’t worry, we’ve already budgeted for these positions, so there won’t be any negative impact on your precious funds. So step aside and let us do what needs to be done to keep this county running smoothly. Or else you’ll be facing the consequences of your foolish decision.

My beloved congregation,

Today, as we gather in this sacred place, I come before you with an important message from the County of Humboldt. The Planning and Building Department is seeking authorization from the Board of Supervisors to execute a purchase order with Carahsoft Technology Corporation for the continuation of the Accela standard web-based permitting software. This software has been instrumental in streamlining the permit process and ensuring operational excellence within our county.

The Accela software has proven to be a valuable tool for our community, allowing for global access to permit information and improving the efficiency and security of our operations. This subscription service has seen consistent upgrades and improvements, with the latest version providing new features that enhance stability and performance. The transition to the Microsoft Azure Cloud has further improved service availability and performance, making it easier for our staff to access and update information from any location.

Not only does the Accela software benefit our internal operations, but it also provides a user-friendly platform for the public to monitor and interact with permit applications. The Accela Citizen Access Portal allows for easy access to information and the exchange of data, ultimately streamlining the permitting process for our residents. Furthermore, the transition to an all-electronic application format has resulted in cost savings and increased efficiency for both our department and applicants.

The financial impact of this authorization is accounted for in the department’s budget, with the costs increasing by 5% each year. The subscription fees cover initial user licenses, additional licenses, and access to the Accela Citizen Access Portal. It is important to note that the Planning and Building Department’s transition away from Accela would impact other county agencies that rely on the system for data and operational support.

I urge you, my dear congregation, to support the Board of Supervisors in authorizing the continuation of the Accela web-based permitting software. This decision aligns with our commitment to operational excellence and workforce development, ensuring that we can continue to serve our community effectively and efficiently. Let us come together in prayer and solidarity as we entrust this decision to the hands of our county leaders.

May the Lord guide our county in all its endeavors, and may we continue to uphold the values of excellence and service in all that we do. Amen.

(Verse)
In the County of Humboldt, in the year 2025
A lease agreement is up for discussion, let’s keep it alive
McKinleyville Community Services District, they need the space
To run a public library and serve the community with grace

(Chorus)
Fifth Amendment to the Lease Agreement, oh what a sight
Allowing the use of real property, keeping it right
Board of Supervisors, make the call and decide
To approve this amendment and keep the library open wide

(Verse)
The lease has been amended four times before
Extending the term, ensuring access for more
Now it’s time for the fifth, to keep things in motion
Supporting the community with the library’s devotion

(Chorus)
Fifth Amendment to the Lease Agreement, oh what a sight
Allowing the use of real property, keeping it right
Board of Supervisors, make the call and decide
To approve this amendment and keep the library open wide

(Bridge)
No direct costs, no impact on the General Fund
Just a simple decision, to allow the library to continue to run
So let’s support this amendment, for the benefit of all
And keep the McKinleyville library standing tall

(Chorus)
Fifth Amendment to the Lease Agreement, oh what a sight
Allowing the use of real property, keeping it right
Board of Supervisors, make the call and decide
To approve this amendment and keep the library open wide

(Outro)
So let’s come together, in the County of Humboldt
Supporting our community, let the library’s story unfold
With the fifth amendment approved, the lease will extend
And the McKinleyville library will continue to be a friend

Merv “The Beast” Tarkington here, folks! Welcome back to The Beast’s Den, your one-stop shop for all things conservative and patriotic. Today, we’ve got a real doozy of a topic to discuss - the Sixth Amendment to the Lease Agreement with McKinleyville Community Services District regarding use of the real property located at 1608 Pickett Road in McKinleyville, California.

Now, I don’t know about you, but when I hear about these government deals and amendments, my blood starts to boil. Why is the government constantly meddling in our lives and our communities? Why do they feel the need to micromanage every little detail, right down to the rental rates on a substation?

Let me break it down for you, folks. The government wants to extend the lease agreement with the McKinleyville Community Services District until June 30, 2026. They want to increase the monthly rental rate to $227.68 based on the Consumer Price Index. And why? To ensure compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Give me a break!

This is just another example of government overreach and wasteful spending. Why do we need to spend thousands of dollars on a substation rental when that money could be going towards real community needs, like fixing our roads or supporting our veterans? It’s outrageous!

So, my fellow patriots, I implore you to stand up and speak out against this nonsense. Let’s hold our elected officials accountable and demand that they prioritize the needs of the people, not their own bureaucratic agendas.

This has been Merv “The Beast” Tarkington, signing off from The Beast’s Den. Stay strong, stay informed, and always fight for your freedom!

In the County of Humboldt, on April fifteen,
The Sheriff came to the Board to seek their glean.
A grant for Search and Rescue, ten thousand in all,
To support their program, and answer the call.

From DirectRelief, the funds did come,
To purchase e-bikes, to help them run.
The Board of Supervisors, with a 4/5 vote,
Accepted the grant, and did promote.

The Sheriff and his team, now equipped with new gear,
To aid in their mission, without any fear.
With bikes that don’t need gas or oil,
Their SAR program will continue to toil.

So here’s to the Sheriff and his hardworking crew,
Accepting this grant, to help them all through.
With bikes and equipment, they’ll be prepared,
To rescue those in need, no matter where dared.

Title: Scooby-Doo and the Haunted Auction House

[The gang is driving through the foggy countryside towards the County of Humboldt, where they have been summoned to help investigate a strange occurrence at the Treasurer Tax Collector’s office.]

Fred: “Looks like we’ve got another mystery on our hands, gang. The Treasurer Tax Collector’s office is reporting some spooky happenings at the upcoming property auction.”

Velma: “According to this document, they’ve had some unexpected costs associated with the auction. It seems like something mysterious is going on.”

Daphne: “Maybe there’s a ghost trying to sabotage the auction to keep the properties for itself!”

Shaggy: “Like, I hope it’s not a ghost. I don’t think I can handle another spooky encounter.”

[Scooby-Doo barks in agreement as they arrive at the Treasurer Tax Collector’s office. The office is old and rundown, with cobwebs in the corners and strange noises echoing through the halls.]

Treasurer/Tax Collector: “Thank you for coming, Mystery Inc. We’ve been experiencing some strange occurrences leading up to the auction. It’s as if someone doesn’t want it to go smoothly.”

Velma: “Don’t worry, we’ll get to the bottom of this mystery. Let’s split up and look for clues.”

[Scooby-Doo and Shaggy head off to the basement, where they hear eerie sounds coming from behind a closed door. As they cautiously open it, they are met with a cloud of dust and a figure lurking in the shadows.]

Shaggy: “Zoinks! It’s a ghost!”

[Scooby-Doo bravely barks and chases after the figure, only to reveal that it’s just a disgruntled former property owner trying to scare off potential buyers.]

Meanwhile, Fred, Velma, and Daphne discover a hidden passage that leads to a secret room filled with valuable antiques that were meant to be auctioned off.

Fred: “It looks like someone was trying to steal these items before the auction even began. But who would go to such lengths?”

Velma: “I think I know who’s behind all of this. Let’s gather everyone back in the main hall.”

[As they explain their findings to the group, the Treasurer/Tax Collector reveals that a rival auction company has been trying to sabotage their auctions to drive them out of business.]

With the mystery solved, Mystery Inc. agrees to help protect the auction and ensure that everything goes smoothly. The auction is a success, and the Treasurer Tax Collector thanks them for their help in uncovering the truth.

Treasurer/Tax Collector: “I can’t thank you enough for helping us through this mystery. You truly are the best in the business!”

[The gang bids farewell to the County of Humboldt, satisfied that they have once again solved a spooky mystery.]

En el condado de Humboldt, se reunieron
los supervisores, para el quince de abril,
discutir el caso de Kernen Construction,
y su permiso condicional revocar o modificar.

El Departamento de Planificación y Construcción,
recomienda que se abra la audiencia pública,
para escuchar a Kernen y al público en general,
sobre el uso de la instalación de materiales y agregados.

Se propone modificar el permiso condicional,
para requerir la reubicación de un dique no autorizado,
y añadir condiciones de horario y ruido,
para mitigar los impactos negativos.

El proyecto en cuestión ha traído controversia,
con construcción no permitida y problemas de ruido,
es hora de tomar medidas para corregir la situación,
y garantizar un entorno seguro y saludable para todos.

Las horas de operación deben limitarse,
y el ruido producido también controlar,
para proteger a los residentes cercanos,
y asegurarse de que el uso de la tierra se realice de manera adecuada.

En conclusión, el condado de Humboldt,
debe actuar con responsabilidad,
para garantizar la protección del medio ambiente,
y garantizar que todas las regulaciones se cumplan.

Así que los supervisores se reúnen,
para decidir el destino de esta situación,
esperando que, con medidas apropiadas,
se logre una solución satisfactoria para todos.

Socrates: Greetings, my friends. Today we are gathered here to discuss the changes to the Humboldt County Aviation Advisory Committee. Let us begin by examining the recommendations presented to us by the Clerk of the Board.

Plato: Indeed, Socrates. The recommendations suggest considering changes to the number of committee members, the composition of committee membership, and the focus of the committee. It also calls for the Clerk of the Board to return with a new resolution to formalize any changes that may be decided upon.

Aristotle: It appears that the purpose of these changes is to better align the committee with the current needs and expectations of the Board of Supervisors. The history of the committee’s formation and past resolutions shed light on the evolution of its structure and function over the years.

Socrates: Yes, Aristotle. The membership composition seems to have been a point of contention, with suggestions for including individuals with backgrounds in economic development, real estate, and tourism. There were also concerns raised about the overrepresentation of pilots who are also airport tenants.

Plato: It is important for the committee to have a diverse representation and a clear focus on key areas such as economic development, destination tourism, and development planning. The focus on safety issues, commercial airline needs, and collaboration with the Department of Aviation also seem crucial.

Aristotle: Additionally, the need for better communication and reporting mechanisms within the committee has been highlighted. It is essential for the committee to provide regular updates and reports to the Board of Supervisors to ensure transparency and accountability.

Socrates: In light of these discussions, it seems that the recommendations put forth by the Clerk of the Board are aimed at improving the effectiveness and efficiency of the Humboldt County Aviation Advisory Committee. The proposed changes seek to address the current challenges and align the committee’s focus with the strategic goals of the Board.

Plato: Indeed, Socrates. It is evident that these changes are necessary to ensure that the committee remains relevant and impactful in advancing the county’s aviation interests. The Board of Supervisors must carefully consider these recommendations and make informed decisions to shape the future direction of the committee.

Aristotle: Agreed, Plato. The decisions made regarding the structure and function of the Humboldt County Aviation Advisory Committee will have a significant impact on the county’s aviation development. It is crucial for the Board of Supervisors to weigh all the factors and implications before reaching a conclusion.

Socrates: Thank you, my friends, for your insightful thoughts and reflections on this matter. It is through dialogue and deliberation that we can arrive at wise and just decisions. Let us continue our discussion and consider the best course of action for the Humboldt County Aviation Advisory Committee.

I tell ya, I went to a Board of Supervisors meeting in Humboldt County and even they couldn’t give me any respect. They were too busy discussing the Project Trellis Local Equity Program to notice me sitting there!

(Verse 1)
I grew up in the County of Humboldt
Where the redwoods reach for the sky
But now our funds are runnin’ low
And it’s hard to make ends meet, oh why

(Chorus)
Board of Supervisors, don’t you see
The struggle of the working man
With no base salary increase for me
I’m just doin’ the best I can

(Verse 2)
We’ve cut back on every dime
And tightened our belts real tight
But it seems like every time
We just can’t get it right

(Chorus)
Board of Supervisors, don’t you see
The pain in our eyes so clear
With no base salary increase for me
It’s a hard truth we have to bear

(Bridge)
We put our trust in you
To lead us through the fight
But now we’re feelin’ blue
As we face another lonely night

(Chorus)
Board of Supervisors, can’t you hear
The cry of the working class
With no base salary increase this year
It feels like we’re fading fast

(Outro)
So I’ll keep on pushin’ through
Through the hardship and the pain
But Board of Supervisors, know it’s true
This decision drives me insane
