… or, as a nursery rhyme!

In Humboldt County, on 6/18/2026,
The Board of Supervisors had much to fix.
They met to discuss the budgets in hand,
For the fiscal year, a plan they planned.

With File #: 26-651 on the table,
A budget approval they aimed to enable.
4/5ths vote was the requirement,
To adopt the budget with full commitment.

The staff recommended a resolution or two,
To adopt the budget, as they should do.
With adjustments made, they were ready to vote,
For the county’s finances, they took note.

Animal control and spay services too,
Were on the agenda for the Board to review.
Staffing remained the same, no changes were made,
The budget they worked on, was carefully displayed.

All county funds and special districts were involved,
The financial impact was carefully resolved.
The adopted budget was set at a high sum,
To ensure the county could overcome.

So in Humboldt County, on that meeting date,
The Board of Supervisors worked to create,
A budget that would meet the needs of all,
For the future, they answered the call.
