Editor:

I encourage you to support Pat Higgins for Humboldt Bay Harbor Commissioner. He has demonstrated his passion for protection and development of our Bay.

Humboldt Bay is the heart of Humboldt and our collective, greatest resource. Pat has worked with the Harbor Commission to assure its financial solvency, expand aquaculture, promote trail expansion and clean up the pulp mill. He has been part of a team that brings in $3.6 million annually to keep the bay entrance open to support our fishing industry.

The health of Humboldt Bay is critical to our region and cannot be jeopardized by backward steps. Stick with the current board. Vote for Pat Higgins. He cares deeply about our region, understands the science, and does the hard work that is strengthening our economic prosperity.

Sincerely,

Julie Fulkerson, Trinidad
