… or, as Schoolhouse Rock!

(Verse 1)
In the County of Humboldt, on a day in June,
The Board of Supervisors had a public hearing in full bloom.
They gathered to discuss the budgets for the year ahead,
Making sure all special districts and programs were well-fed.

(Chorus)
Oh, County of Humboldt, with your beauty so grand,
We’re here to make sure our budgets are in hand.
From special districts to Measure O plans,
We’re working hard to meet all demands.

(Verse 2)
They opened the meeting, heard from the public with care,
Making sure everyone’s voices were heard in the air.
They deliberated, made modifications as needed,
To ensure the budget for each program was heeded.

(Chorus)
Oh, County of Humboldt, with your forests so green,
We’re here to make sure our budget is clean.
From General Fund allocations to Measure O too,
We’re working together to see it all through.

(Bridge)
With strategic plans and staffing in mind,
We’re working hard to be fiscally aligned.
The VSIP program could save us some dough,
But we’ll make sure our services continue to grow.

(Chorus)
Oh, County of Humboldt, with your rivers so wide,
We’re proud of the progress we have inside.
From public hearings to sound financial plans,
We’re working together, hand in hand.

(Outro)
So here’s to Humboldt, our county so bright,
We’ll continue to work hard, day and night.
With budgets approved and programs in place,
We’ll keep moving forward, with grace and with grace.
