All The Pieces
What’s the most broken thing in the county? How can we fix it?
Several: roads, a sustainable budget and related economy, drug addiction, homelessness. [We need to] receive flexibility from the state; let us prioritize spending, reduce employer burdens.
What is the main problem in your specific district that the county needs to address?
Cannot be one, my district is too diverse.
Cooperative answers (Eureka/County) to growth supporting each others’ needs: transportation; core services like police and fire.
King Salmon/Humboldt Hill: tsunami planning and nuclear plant decommissioning, new power generation system, improving drainage and roads; evacuation planning.
Loleta: water and wastewater infrastructure, housing, protection of AG lands, improving tourism.
Ferndale: stop the flooding at Salt River and resulting impacts to the city wastewater system. Help maintain the entrance to the city, protect the city’s right to manage its sphere of influence, protect and support the ag industry.
