Okay,

closed

is
a
land

A
The

the
lands

are
located
on
are
the
unseated

of
the
Wyatt
tribe,
the
land
that
arcade
arrests
on
is
known
in
the
wiat
language,
as
gudini
meeting
over
in
the
woods
or
among
the
Redwoods
past
action
by
local
state,
federal
and
federal
governments
remove
the
we
ought
and
other
indigenous
peoples
from
their
land
and
threaten
to
destroy
their
cultural
practices.
The
city
of
Arcata
acknowledges
the
weak
Community

Elders,
both

to
our
ceremonial
matters.
We
have
four
proclamations
this
evening
and
the
first
is
a
proclamation
in
recognition
of
the
31st
Annual
National
Association
of
letter
carriers.
Food
drive
day,
which
will
be
Saturday,
May,
13
2023,
and
this
Proclamation
will
be
read
by
council
member
Atkins
Salazar.
D
All
right,
the
proclamation
in
recognition
of
the
31st
Annual
National
Association
of
letter
carriers,
food
drive
day,
whereas
every
year
on
the
second
Saturday
in
may,
let
our
carriers
across
the
country
collect
non-perishable
food
as
part
of
the
nation's
largest
one-day
food
drive
Distributing.
The
donations
to
local
food
banks
such
as
Food
for
People,
the
food
bank
for
Humboldt
County
and
its
partner.
D
And
we
appreciate
community
members.
Support
of
the
food
drive
all
of
the
food
collected
in
each
Community
stays
in
that
Community.
Now,
therefore,
be
it
proclaimed
that
the
city
council
of
the
city
of
Arcata
hereby
designates
Saturday
May
13
2023
as
National
Association
of
letter
carriers,
food
drive
day
and
asks
all
residents
to
support
the
food
drive
by
leaving
non-perishable
food
donation
next
to
their
mailbox
for
their
letter
carrier
to
pick
up
on
the
Saturday,
the
second
Saturday
in
May.
E
G
G
Carriers
work
on
the
front
lines
in
our
communities
and
get
to
know
the
people
on
their
routes.
They
often
see
firsthand
the
struggle
of
low-income
families
and
seniors,
and
their
compassion
and
generosity
makes
a
big
difference
to
the
people
that
we
serve.
Carriers,
work
double
duty
on
the
day
of
the
drive
collecting
donations
while
delivering
mail
and
often
work
longer
hours
just
to
get
the
job
done.
G
This
is
the
largest
single
day
county-wide
food
drive
of
the
year
and
the
donations
collected
in
a
particular
Community
stay
in
that
Community
to
help
local
folks
in
need.
The
timing
of
the
suit
Drive
is
also
critical
as
pandemic
EBT
assistance
programs
are
coming
to
an
end
and
food
costs
are
on
the
rise,
so
many
people
are
having
a
really
tough
time
putting
food
on
the
table.
Many
of
our
pantry
sites
have
already
distributed
donations
received
during
the
holidays.
G
Last
year
we
distributed
nearly
2
million
pounds
of
food
to
our
friends
and
Neighbors
in
need,
and
this
year
our
most
needed
food
items
are
protein
items
like
canned
soups
and
stews
canned
meat,
Nut,
Butter
canned
fruit
and
juice
and
canned
vegetables,
and
we
also
request
that
people
avoid
donating
glass
items,
expired,
rusting,
bulging
items
or
home
canned
food
items,
and
we
also
need
volunteers.
So
if
you're

in
helping
out

and
sign
up,
thank
you
so
much.
A
H
Whereas
water
week
is
the
unique
opportunity
for
both
water
professionals
and
the
community,
we
serve
to
join
together
in
recognizing
the
vital
role
water
plays
in
our
daily
lives
and
whereas
we
are
thankful
to
have
easy
access
to
clean
water
and
recognize
that
many
parts
of
the
world
struggle
with
water
access
and
water
quality,
and
that
we
can
help
bring
education
and
awareness
to
these
important
issues
and
whereas
Clean
safe
drinking
water
is
a
finite
resource.
That
should
be
protected
and
used
wisely
for
the
benefit
of
generations
to
come.
H
And
whereas
the
city
of
arcata's,
Environmental,
Services
Department,
serves
a
key
role
in
treating
and
distributing
our
drinking
water,
delivering
Public
Health
protection,
fire
protection
and
support
for
our
economy
and
the
quality
of
life
we
enjoy.
And
whereas
arcata's
drinking
water
is
safe,
refreshing
and
meets
or
exceeds
all
state
and
federal
drinking
water
quality
standards.
And
whereas
we
are
all
stewards
of
water,
resource
sources
and
the
infrastructure
upon
which
future
Generations
depend.
Helping
to
protect
and
conserve
our
Water
Resources
through
the
wise
use
of
water.
H
Now,
therefore,
be
it
proclaimed
by
the
city
council
of
the
city
of
Arcata.

All

Okay,.
J
Hello,
my
name
is
Joanna
McGarry
for
those
who
are
seeing
me
at
this
Podium
for
the
first
time,
I
think
it's
important
that
people
know
who
I
am
and
what
I
have
to
say.
So
they
can
challenge
me
or
compliment
me
for
whatever
I
have
to
say
here,
but,
as
you
well
know,
I
like
to
speak
in
threes
about
issues
and
I'm,
a
big
believer
now
in
this
concept
of
braiding
for
strength
in
our
community.
J
First,
with
zero
waste
I
know
we
have
a
new
ordinance
that
went
into
effect
this
year
on
to
go
containers
I've
been
traveling
on
foot
a
lot
or
by
bike
through
town
and
a
lot
of
food
trucks
and
restaurants.
I've
brought
my
various
to-go
containers
to
be
filled
and
I've
had
mixed
results
in
terms
of
people
knowing
about
it,
giving
me
the
discount
really
promoting
the
concept
of
just
even
the
coffee
cup
concept,
of
bringing
your
own
cup
and
I.
Really,
if
we're
going
to
have
an
ordinance.
J
Let's
do
it
seriously
and
full
full
force.
Okay,
we
have
a
lot
of
ordinances
these
days
that
are
not
being
enforced,
which
is
a
whole
other
bailiwick
of
things
to
talk
about,
but
seguing
into
that
zero
waste
issue
and
into
public
transit
I
loan
out.
As
you
all
know,
my
green
wear
for
various
events
it'll
be
used,
hopefully
tomorrow
at
Arcata
Health
Partnership
for
the
Arcata
chamber,
mixer
and
I'm,
going
to
take
it
there
by
bus,
because
I
have
an
old
car
that
is
very
unreliable.
J
These
days
and
I'm
really
really
trying
to
find
ways
to
get
around
inside
Arcata
and
elsewhere
in
the
in
the
greater
Humboldt
area.
Did
that
go
so
fast,
my
God
so
anyway
that
public
transit
really
needs
to
improve
I
couldn't
go
to
Beachcomber
on
Sunday
and
finally,
the
unhoused
I'll
speak
about
that
at
the
end
of
the
night.
So
thank
you.
Thank
you.
Joanne.
K
Good
evening,
Gregory
Daggett
the
general
plan
updates
from
the
Planning
Commission
there's
some
big
major
changes
that
they're
proposing
and
that's
going
from
low
density
to
high
density
for
the
sunset
Northtown
Bay
View
areas
of
town.
This
is
totally
unacceptable.
I
mean
do
you
realize
low
density
to
high
density?
What
we're
talking
about
high
density
is
a
Sorrel
place
next
to
a
single
family
home.
So
nobody
in
California
is
doing
this
they're.
K
Basically,
I
spent
like
a
week
in
Los
Angeles,
the
beginning
of
April,
went
on
the
Metro
lines,
went
through
a
lot
of
cities,
I've
read
about
it,
they're,
basically
putting
the
mid-rises
all
along
the
Metro
lines
and
also
in
commercial
areas.
Where
there's
you
know
a
lot
of
a
bus
service
so
to
just
be
peppering.
You
know
mid-rises
throughout
our
neighborhoods
here
in
Arcata,
is,
is
pretty
bizarre
and
and
I
don't
know
where
this
is
coming
from,
unless
it's
just
we're
so
desperate
for
housing.
K
We're
going
to
do
this,
but
you
I
would
instead
of
spending
like
six
thousand
dollars
for
Ben
Noble
to
show
up
for
a
four-hour
Workshop.
We
should
be
doing
something
like
have
a
balloon,
with
some
helium
and
and
start
out
by
going
to
planning
commissions
houses,
and
maybe
your
houses
and
see
what
that
actually
looks
like
next
to
your,
where
you're
living-
and
we
also
have
to
think
about
you-
know
the
fact
from
the
solar
impact.
A
lot
of
people
are
investing
in
heat
pumps
and
solar
panels
they're
putting
that
on
their
houses.
K
These
are
not
inexpensive
things,
yeah,
1200
square
foot
house
for
a
system
would
be
like
40
some
thousand
dollars
and
then
we're
actually
going
to
change
low
density
to
high
density.
So
somebody
could
go
ahead
and
do
a
construction
right
next
to
someone's
site
and
and
basically
take
all
of
their
assets
away
from
the
investment
in
environmental
friendly
heat
pumps.
So.
L
In
spanish.com
has
always
been
Spanish,
it's
now
a
little
easier
to
get
there.
As
you
know,
the
Planning
Commission
had
three
meetings.
Last
week,
Saturday
Tuesday
and
Thursday
much
good
work
was
done,
but
I'm
here
to
tell
you
that
the
schedule
is
not
being
able
to
be
held
to
I'm,
saying
they're,
getting
about
40
or
50
percent
of
what
needs
to
be
done.
This
is
a
schedule
for
March
1st,
which
is
two
months
ago.
L
I'd
say
we're
about
40
percent,
on
that
every
schedule
that
has
been
proposed
has
been
overly
optimistic,
have
been
proposed
and
then
discarded
and
moved
on.
In
my
belief,
the
council
should
be
prepared
to
provide
an
extension
to
the
timelines
that
are
there.
As
you
also
know,
and
Saturday.
The
Planning
Commission
gave
explicit
simple,
direct,
unanimous
instructions
to
David
Lloyd
to
put
an
item
on
the
agenda
with
very
specific
directions,
and
he
did
not
do
that
which
this
caused
on
Thursday
a
obvious
and
valid
violation
of
the
brown
act.
L
A
A
Right
that
will
take
us
now
to
our
consent.
Calendar
all
matters
on
the
consent.
Calendar
are
considered
to
be
routine
by
the
city
council
and
are
enacted
in
one

There
is
no
separate

of
any
of
these

if
discussion
is
required,
the

is
removed

At

N
A
L
Thank
you,
Good
Evening,
in
in
the
minutes
for
the
April
5th
council
meeting
I
refer
to
new
business
item,
a
was
the
timeline
for
strategic
infill
Redevelopment
program.
That's
the
general
plan,
it's
on
page
16,
17
18
in
the
packet.
The
minutes
for
this
motion
are
quote.
The
council
upheld
the
timeline
set
by
it
at
its
March
1
2023
meeting.
End
quote:
this
is
the
problem.
It's
not
clear
what
the
timelines
at
that
March
1st
meeting
were
in
that
the
minutes
for
that
meeting.
It's
not
clear
what
the
timeline
is.
L
It
just
says
that
it's
important
to
stick
to
them
in
the
video
in
the
transcription
I've
watched
this
thoroughly.
It's
also
not
clear
what
the
timeline
is.
Specifically,
there's
no
mention
in
the
March
1st
meeting
by
the
council
members
of
a
timeline
for
the
completion
of
a
draft
of
the
Gateway
plan,
no
mention
of
the
timeline
for
completion
of
a
draft
of
the
general
plan.
L
The
timeline
that
was
discussed
at
the
March
1st
meeting
was
about
the
development
of
the
form-based
code.
We
all
know
the
April
5th
meeting
was
about
defining
a
timeline
for
the
completion
of
a
draft
of
the
general
plan.
The
motion
was
quote
to
uphold
the
timeline
that
was
set
at
the
March
1st
meeting.
End
quote
this
is
problematic
because
there
wasn't
a
timeline
at
that
March.
First
meeting
it
didn't
exist,
I
believe
we
can
all
agree
what
the
council
wanted
to
do
on
March,
5th
and
I.
L
Think
I
would
wear
this
as
to
have
a
draft
of
the
general
plan
be
ready
for
view
by
the
city
council
at
their
July
11th
meeting.
If
there
can
be
a
way
to
include
that
in
the
minutes
of
the
April
5th
meeting
our
words
similar
to
it,
that
would
provide
much
greater
Clarity.
I
know
you
can't
change
the
words
of
the
motion,
but
right
now
it
just
says
the
council
members
expressed
their
views
regarding
the
timelined
and
the
general
Plan
update.
L
M
B
A
E
A
J
F
A
J
Calendar
so
I
actually
had
a
conversation
with
David
right
before
the
meeting
and
I
would
also
just
like
a
little
bit
more
specifics
about
what
some
of
this
money
is
going
to
be
spent
on
in
terms
of
the
actual
application,
not
salaries
for
the
employees
of
the
construction
company
and
this
and
that.
But
you
know
what
is
happening
in
the
Improvement
plan.
Just
some
maybe
specific
examples,
because
there's
sidewalk
things
that
I'm
tripping
over
and
I
was
talking
about
slanted
streets
and
things
like
that.
J
A
O
Sure
so
this
project
is
kind
of
a
bunch
of
bicycle
pedestrian
and
Street
improvements
throughout
the
city.
The
locations
vary
all
over
the
city,
but
the
majority
of
it
I
would
say,
is
probably
sidewalk
improvements,
correcting
slope
in
some
areas.
There's
some
trips
and
falls
bumps.
There's
one
or
two
bollards
we're
doing
some
new
striping
and
some
portions
of
the
street
and
intersections.
O
Pavement
is
not
in
great
condition,
so
we're
doing
kind
of
a
dig
out
and
replace
that
back
so
crosswalk
areas
that
you
know
trips
and
Hazards,
and
things
like
that
I
would
say
that
is
probably
the
majority
of
it.
There's.
Also
some
enhanced
pedestrian
push
button
like
warning
signals,
that's
going
on
Samoa,
Samoa
and
I,
and
then
there's
going
to
be
another
set
as
you
cross,
South
I
Street
as
well.
That's
going
to
be
included
in
this
project.
A
A
A
So
our
first
item,
a
under
new
business,
is
to
approve
an
amendment
and
re-statement
of
the
agreement
between
the
city
of
Arcata
and
the
Humboldt
Transit
Authority
for
operations
and
maintenance
of
the
Arcata
and
Mad
River
Transit
System
and
vehicles,
and
to
authorize
the
city
manager
to
execute
all
applicable
documents.
So
we'll
have
a
staff
report
from
city
engineer
at
netra,
katri.
P
Okay
good
evening,
mayor
council
members,
members
of
the
public
and
staff
here
in
front
of
you
today
is
the
contract
Amendment
for
our
annual
maintenance
contract
with
Humboldt
Transit
Authority
over
existing
contract
with
HTA,
which
is
same
as
a
humble
Transit.
Authority
was
executed
originally
in
2006
and
then
amended
in
2020,
which
includes
maintenance,
fielding
and
parking
of
all
our
Transit
vehicles
at
their
ER.
P
Currently,
our
Transit
operates
with
one
Transit
manager,
one
Transit
operator,
one
free
quarter,
time,
bus
driver
and
five
part-time
bus
drivers.
If
one
of
the
driver
calls
in
sick,
we
don't
have
no
backup.
Currently,
we
don't
have
a
Transit
manager,
Transit
manager
used
to
be
backup
driver
for
our
drivers,
HTA,
which
provides
transit
services
to
the
whole
Humboldt
County,
from
Trinidad
to
Garberville
and
from
Arcata
to
Willow
Creek,
and
also
they
operate
Eureka
transit
services.
P
The
goal
of
this
amendment
is
to
provide
a
reliable
Transit
service
to
the
Arcata
residents
by
using
HTS
expertise
on
Transit
operation
services.
This
will
improve
the
efficiency
of
Transit
service
in
the
area
and
will
open
doors
for
more
opportunities
in
future
to
add
additional
routes.
If
funding
becomes
available
currently
the,
but
what
we
anticipate
the
amount
would
be
for
this
contract
Services
is,
we
will
be
putting
in
next
year's
budget
and
we
have
funding
for
that
at
least
for
one
year.
So
this
is
a
one-year
contract
and
we'll
see
how
that
goes.
P
Now
we
are
also
working
with,
as
we
will
be
working
on
this
contract.
We
will
not
have
part-time
drivers
working
for
us,
so
we've
been
working
with
HTA
staff
and
they
have
assured
us
that
they
will
be
taking
most
of
our
drivers
if
we
are
willing
to
work,
and
there
will
be
a
smooth
transition
of
that.
So
overall,
this
is
a
great
plan.
I
think
we've
been
talking
about
this
for
a
long
time.
P
So
now
it's
in
front
of
you
and
it's
time
to
escape
this,
so
this
will
improve
the
operation
services
for
the
whole
region
and,
as
I
said
earlier,
if
the
funding
becomes
available,
HTA
has
a
bigger
driver
pool
and
we
could
use
the
drivers.
So
now
we
have
drivers,
so
we
need
to
find
money
and
we
find
money.
Then
we
can
add
more
routes.
E
So
I
I
move
for
approval
of
an
amendment
and
a
reinstatement
of
the
agreement
between
the
city
of
Arcata
and
Humboldt
Transit,
Authority
known
as
HCA
for
operations
and
maintenance
of
the
Arcata
Mad
River
Transit
System
known
as
the
A
and
mrts
and
vehicles,
and
authorize
the
city
manager
to
execute
all
applicable
documents.
All.
H
I'll
second,
it
and
I
just
wanted
to
to
add
that,
as
our
resources
are
stretched
thin,
both
not
only
financially
but
with
Personnel,
it
just
makes
sense
on
this,
and
you
know
possibly
other
things
to
take
a
more
Regional
approach
and
I
I.
Think
I
showed
at
one
of
my
report
outs
that
I
was
able
to
receive
or
be
part
of
a
presentation
from
HTA
showing
all
the
the
new
upgrades
and
and
what
they're
doing,
and
it's
very
exciting
and
impressive,
and
so
I
I'm
happy
that
we
can
be
part
of
that.
D
A
Yeah
I'm
excited
about
this
and
I
know
that
we've
been
talking
about
this
as
a
council
and
a
goal
of
you
know
just
us
councilman
Brad
Gonzalez
are
said
just
improving
that
kind
of
regional
connection,
and
you
know
we
see
that
HD
already
operates.
You
know
the
majority
of
the
buses
within
the
county
anyway
and
to
come
into
that
system.
I
think
we're
entering
a
already
very
well
established
well-run
system,
the
one
question
that
I
have
and
it
might
seem
kind
of
basic.
A
But
how
would
this
change
of
contract
impact
are
Contracting
with
Cal
Poly
humble
I
mean
then
they
just
enter
into
contract
with
HTA
and
also
how
does
that
I
assume
it's
kind
of
the
same
vein
of
questioning,
but,
like
our
free
rides
that
we
do
in
June
and
July?
How
does
that
impact
programs
like
that
that
we
already
offer
with
our
bus
system.
P
The
existing
contract
that
we
have
with
Cal
Poly
that
remain
in
place,
because
that
is
for
three
year
unless
HDA
gets
a
new
contract
with
them,
and
then
we
can
get
a
get
out
of
our
contract.
That's
an
option,
but
right
now
we
are
planning
to
have
that
contract
with
Cal
Poly,
at
least
for
next
two
years,
and
we
will
be
providing
services.
So
we
are
getting
the
operation
services
from
HDL.
However,
we
have
the
ownership
of
still
all
the
buses,
and
at
least
the
one
staff.
A
M
Oh
I'm,
sorry
go
ahead.
Oh
I,
I
just
was
really
happy
to
hear
that
there
was
going
to
be
a
smooth
transition
for
the
workers
that
are
already
here
to
that,
and
my
understanding
is
that
they'll
have
access
to
benefits
that
they
may
not
have
had
access
being
that
it's
going
to
be
full
time
over.
There.
P
I
I'm
sure
like
I,
can
we
cannot
guarantee
that
at
this
point
our
drivers
are
where
the
part-time
drivers
they
didn't
have
benefits
with
the
city,
so
if
they
get
hired
by
HTA,
if
they
get
a
full
time,
yes,
they
will
have
a
benefit,
but
if
they
get
hired
as
a
part-time,
they
will
not
have
a
benefit.
So
we
cannot
guarantee
that
they
will
shall
receive
benefit,
but.
E
D
P
A
Q
It
has
been
talked
about
for
years.
It
gets
brought
up
every
year
or
so
when,
honestly,
when
we
have
conflicts
with
relationship
to
these
special
times
when
there's
free
rides
and
all
that
other
stuff
that
doesn't
Coit,
you
know
that
we
don't
necessarily
time
them
correctly
together
or
there's
other
things
that
just
happen,
and
then
we've
had
issues
around
operationally
with
relationship
to
the
passes
in
the
past
and
stuff
like
that.
So
this
will
definitely
help
us
move
forward
with
coordination
with
relationship
to
that.
Q
So
I
think
it's
not
just
more
reliable
service,
but
really
more
can
convenient
Service
as
well,
so
I
think
that's
going
to
be
really
helpful
and
I
just
want
to
speak
to
you.
Also,
we've
had
the
city
of
Eureka
also
used
to
have
its
own
bus
service
with
relationship
just
like
you
guys
have,
and
that
I
was
I
have
been
on
HTA
long
enough
to
have
experienced
that
transition.
It's
been
very
positive.
No
one
in
Eureka
is
seeking
to
go
back
with
relationship
to
that.
Q
Q
K
Okay,
according
to
your
own
data,
I
think
only
three
percent
of
the
population
actually
uses
the
public
transportation.
So
my
question
is:
how
are
you
going
to
encourage
more
people
to
use
it?
Because
that's
a
pretty
dismal
number
and
also
I
would
say
that
the
trustees
of
Cal
State
University
in
the
fall
when
they
had
Cal
Poly,
they
kind
of
put
them
on
a
spot
a
little
bit,
because
one
of
the
trustees
pointed
out
that
he's
visited
every
campus
in
the
state
and
every
question.
K
The
first
thing
that
comes
out
from
students
is
parking
parking
parking.
He
says,
I
don't
want
to
hear
it,
but
it's
basically,
he
put
Cal
Poly
on
the
spot
for
the
Craftsman
Mall
project,
because
he
said
there's
only
about
three
one
spot
per
three
students
and
he
told
basically
the
president
Cal
Poly
this
totally
unacceptable
because
he
felt
that
sort
of
it
was
like
abusing
the
students
from
the
standpoint
he
said
that
they
come
up.
I
visited
your
campus,
it's
beautiful
up
there.
K
You
know
students
want
to
be
able
to
drive
around
and
see
the
Beauty
and
the
also
a
lot
of
them
live
in
isolated
areas.
So
it's
not
easy
for
use
the
planes
to
get
to
them.
So
from
their
standpoint,
which
was
totally
different
than
I
mean
they
both
work
for
the
state.
They
had
different
visions
of
how
this
was
all
going
to
play
out
and
I
I'm
a
full
supporter
of
public
transportation
I'm
not
trying
to
knock
it
down,
but
I'm
a
realistic
when
I
was
in
Los
Angeles
I
spent
billions
of
dollars.
K
They
have
a
subway
system,
you
know
and
I
use
that
subway
system
and
there's
some
real
issues
going
on
with
that.
It
hasn't
quite
worked
out
with
the
buses
and
the
subway
system,
because
not
enough
people
are
using
it,
but
also
worse
than
that,
is
that
there's,
a
lot
of
you
know
say
issues
especially
for
women
too.
Basically,
you
know,
there's
a
there's
a
lot
of
mentally
ill
people
that
are
on
there
there's
a
lot
of
homeless
issues.
There's
there's
violence
going
on
I
mean
every
day
that
I
traveled
for
a
week.
K
There
is
always
an
incident
going
on
and
it's
discouraging
a
lot
of
people,
especially
women
too
I
mean
it
was
pretty
shocking.
What
what
happens
to
women?
What's
what
it
was
said
to
them
in
public
transportation,
and
you
know,
even
if
you're
a
big
guy,
you
don't
really
feel
too
comfortable.
I'll
just
put
it
that
way.
So
these
are
all
factors
that
play
into
it
and
I
use
public
transportation.
K
When
I
travel
a
lot
Miami
New
York
the
only
place
I've
ever
found
when
I
worked
in
Valencia
Spain
for
about
a
year
that
system
worked
and
everybody
across
the
board
from
poor
to
rich
used
it.
But
basically,
here
in
in
the
U.S,
it's
a
very
it's
kind
of
like
a
working
class
and
it's
very
difficult
to
get
to
your
location.
A
lot
of
time.
Svus.
J
My
name
is
Joanna
McGeary
I'm
happy
to
speak
up
now,
but
I
really
would
prefer
if
Colin
Fisk
is
on
Zoom
to
hear
what
he
has
to
say.
First
and
I,
don't
know
how
that
nope,
okay
I'm
encouraging
him
to
show
up
in
person,
because
that
would
be
nice
for
me.
But
if
I
can
speak
on
the
public
transit
issue,
I'm
all
about
braiding,
the
different
Services
of
public
transit,
regionally
and
I
think
this
is
a
good
experiment
like
I
was
talking
about
in
the
past.
J
A
bus
back
so
I
had
to
make
sure
I
got
a
car
ride
back
from
the
event.
So
just
these
kind
of
challenges,
but
while
I
was
sitting
at
that
Transit
Center
I
know
why
a
lot
of
people
don't
take.
The
bus
I
felt
okay
I'm
getting
used
to
the
cast
of
characters
that
I
encounter
when
I
wait
for
a
bus
at
that
Transit
Center,
but
I
think
we
really
need
to
as
we
go.
J
Regional
Eureka
is
creating
this
wonderful,
Earth,
Center
or
whatever
they're,
calling
it
down
in
Old
Town,
and
maybe
we
can
go
along
and
piggyback
and
create
some
much
more
visible
and
effective
and
different
location
for
our
Transit
Center.
Here
and
again,
I'll
speak
more
later
about
braiding
services
and
and
issues
together,
but
I
think
we
can
use
the
existing
Transit
Center
in
a
different
way,
at
least
temporarily,
and
maybe
try
temporarily
another
bus
Center
in
our
town.
So
I'm
all
for
this
Regional
approach.
J
You
know
I
just
hope.
Bus
drivers
don't
have
to
you,
know,
drive
a
bus
to
Eureka
and
then
drive
a
car
back
here.
At
the
end
of
the
day.
You
know
that's
all
kind
of
weird,
so
maybe
we
later
on,
we
could
figure
out
our
own
system,
but
public
transit
really
needs
to
improve
and
it
needs
to
be
promoted
and
people
need
to
use
it
and
that's
the
future
in
a
climate
changing
world,
so
I'm
all
for
progressing
and
moving
forward
on
this
particular
issue
and
let's
not
stop
there.
A
A
E
Now
well,
I
was
just
going
to
speak
up
it's.
We
did
have
a
conversation
this
morning.
What
how
the
covid
pandemic
has
affected
our
ridership
and
been
looking
at
how
we
are
going
to
be
able
to
start
thinking
about
well
be
in
a
generalized
item
about
different
kinds
of
ways
that
we
might
be
able
to
sort
of
start
to
incentivize
people
to,
but
it
wasn't
on
our
agenda,
so
we
couldn't
really
talk
about
it.
Besides,
just
bringing
up
an
ass
that
we
have
something
like
that
on
our
agenda.
A
E
A
Yes
and
thank
you
to
our
commenters,
thank
you
for
the
support.
We
appreciate
it.
It's
nice
to
be
supported
all
right
that
takes
us
to
Item
B,
which
is
a
public
hearing
to
approve
the
annual
Engineers
report
and
declare
the
city's
intention
to
contribute
or
to
continue
to
Levy
and
collect
assessments
of
the
existing
assessment
districts,
including
the
Mad
River
Parkway
Business,
Center
Windsong
and
James
Creek,
Meadow,
Landscape,
Maintenance
assessment
districts
and
we're
back
with
city
engineer.
Netra
katri,.
P
Good
evening
again,
so
this
item
in
front
of
you
is
our
annual
public
hearing
and
approval
of
ingenious
Report
with
resolutions
for
the
three
existing
assessment
districts,
so
that
City
can
continue
to
collect
assessment
on
this
District.
Currently
we
have
three
districts
in
the
city
providing
lighting,
landscaping
and
maintenance
services.
These
assessments
are
collected
so
that
the
staff
can
continue
to
provide
these
kind
of
services
Services
consistently.
The
assessment
value
for
the
each
Parcels
are
based
on
the
engine's
estimate
and
the
report
that
was
prepared
at
the
time
of
creation
of
assessment.
P
P
P
It
has
10
parcels
when
the
district
started
assessment
was
not
7000,
it
was
less
than
five
thousand
dollars,
so
we
spend
around
that
amount.
The
second
district
is
James
Creek
District,
which
was
created
in
2003..
Since
this
is
one
of
the
older
one
does
not
have
a
CPI.
The
assessment
value
is
always
same,
which
is
16
080..
P
P
The
third
one
is
Windsong
Village,
which
is
the
oldest
one
that
was
created
in
1995..
That's
also
does
not
have
a
severe
increase.
Has
a
constant
amount
of
annual
assessment
of
14
850..
In
the
year
2022.
We
spent
17
000
on
that.
So
again
that
value
changes.
We
spend
more
money
and
we
get
less.
But
again
we
are
providing
a
better
customer
service
for
that
area.
P
E
You
it's
so
possible
Madam,
mayor
I
would
like
to
move
for
approval
of
this,
and
then
we
can
have
discussion
from
the
the
council
and
public
hearing.
So
I
moved
for
approval
of
the
annual
Engineers
report
and
declare
the
city
intention
to
continue
to
Levy
and
collect
assessments
of
existing
assessment
districts
to
include
Mad
River,
Park,
Business,
Center,
Windsong
and
Jane's
Creek
Metals
Meadows,
Landscape,
Maintenance
assessment
districts.
A
B
E
A
I
L
Thank
you.
My
comments
are
really
in
the
form
of
questions.
The
Windsong
improvement
district
dates
from
1995
James
Creek
from
2003.
They
don't
have
any
adjustments
for
CPI.
So
the
question
is:
was
that
normal
at
that
time
and
similar
question?
If
an
assessment
District
were
made
today,
such
as
in
the
Gateway
area,
would
it
have
a
CPI
adjustment
for
inflation
to
put
things
in
perspective?
The
Windsong
assessment
from
1995
is
135
dollars
per
parcel,
that's
the
equivalent
of
265
dollars.
L
Today,
the
total
there
is
14
850,
which
would
be
a
little
over
twenty
nine
thousand
dollars
today
and
that's
doubtful,
but
can
the
Windsong
and
James
Creek
Meadows
contracts
be
renegotiated,
given
the
realities
of
real
world
costs
I
also,
while
I
I
fully
believe
you
know
we're
doing
things
efficiently
that
in
1995
it
was
fourteen
thousand
eight
hundred
fifty
dollars
from
Windsong.
How
can
that
money
cover
the
same
maintenance
today?
It
involves
the
play
field,
the
parks,
irrigation
system,
the
draining
system,
Trails
shrubs
lighting.
L
A
A
All
right,
well,
that'll,
bring
us
back
to
the
council
and-
and
that
was
actually
I
guess.
I
would
like
to
know
the
factualness
behind
it
because
I
know
I
think
there
was
like
some
state
law
that
changed
with
property
taxes
right.
That
has
to
do
with
that.
So
so
why
is
that
CPI
not
adjustable
for
those
older
properties.
F
Doing
the
development
then
controls
the
vote,
and
it's
part
of
a
negotiation
with
the
city
in
terms
of
the
development
agreements
around
those
subdivisions
to
reinstate
or
to
renegotiate,
would
go
back
to
a
vote
of
then
all
of
the
parcel
owners
in
those
areas,
I
haven't
seen
those
be
successful
in
other
communities.
It
was
fairly
typical
in
that
day
and
age
to
not
add
a
CPI
increase
to
those
I've.
Many
years
ago,
it's
probably
been
10
12
years
ago.
F
That
I
looked
into
this
more
closely
and
I
saw
that
there
was
a
period
of
time
where
some
cities
did
increase
by
CPI.
Just
made
an
assumption
that
that
was.
But
that
really
is
not
the
case
under
the
laws.
How
we've
read
it
so
we
have
never
increased
those
by
CPI
when
Mad
River
Parkway
came
up
and
we
were
negotiating
that
with
the
zanzis.
We
did
negotiate
in
that
CPI
increase,
so
we
have
played
it
very
conservatively
for
the
council
in
maintaining
these
assessments.
A
N
A
B
R
E
A
D
E
D
F
I
mean
if
you're
up
percent
in
the
now
we
can,
if
you're
up
for
just
saying
please
avoid
this
week
or
that
week
then
I'm
happy
to
send
out
a
doodle
poll.
That's
maybe
a
little
bit
more
targeted
towards
some
dates.
You
know
I'm
guessing
you
know.
If
things
stay
on
schedule,
hopefully
we'll
have
some
level
of
recommendations
from
the
Planning
Commission
in
July,
so
you
know
a
little
bit
of
time
to
digest
and
go
through
and
if
they
have
a
little
bit
of
extra
work
to
do
so
sometime,
maybe
in
August
yeah.
D
A
D
A
A
A
Makes
more
sense
but
I
think
if
we
can
decide,
maybe
we
say
like
sometime
in
the
last
two
weeks
of
August
and
sometime
in
like
the
first
two
or
the
last
two
weeks
of
October
or
something
if
we're
talking
about
two
separate
study
sessions,
I
think
that
that
gives
us
enough
time
between
the
two
of
them
that
gives
us.
You
know
a
couple
weeks
to
work
with
to
build
into
our
schedules
and
also
because
mind
you.
A
F
C
E
F
A
A
Okay,
we
had
a
motion
in
a
second,
we
all
voted.
Should
we
vote
again?
Okay,
it
was
unanimous,
so
we'll
see
you
this
third
week
in
July,
instead,
all
right
great,
so
that
now
takes
us
to
oral
and
written
Communications.
The
city
appreciates
The
public's
input,
and
this
time
is
provided
for
people
to
address
the
council
or
submit
written
Communications
on
matters
not
on
the
agenda.
A
Please
know
that,
pursuant
to
the
brown
act,
the
council
cannot
discuss
or
take
actions
on
items
that
are
not
listed
on
the
posted
agenda
and
at
the
end
of
all
oral
Unwritten
Communications,
the
council
May
respond
to
statements.
Supported
requests
require
Council
action
will
be
set
for
a
future
agenda.
Speakers
addressing
the
council
will
be
limited
to
three
minutes
if
you're
in
person
line
up
at
the
podium.
If
you're
on
Zoom
raise
your
hand
and
if
you're
on
the
phone,
you
can
press
star
nine
all
right
here.
We
go.
J
Just
you
know.
Why
have
an
ordinance
if
we're
not
going
to
enforce
it,
but
if
we're
going
to
have
an
ordinance
for
certain
things
that
people
need
to
be
called
on
that
they're
not
abiding
by,
we
need
to
provide
a
reasonable,
Humane,
alternative
I
think
for
some
of
that.
So
I
think
this
goes
back
to
experimenting
with
different
locations
for
different
activities
for
different
systems
in
our
community,
trying
different
things
to
see.
J
I,
just
think
that
we
spend
a
lot
of
money
and
a
lot
of
time
doing
things
that
are.
We
could
do
better
and
they
wouldn't
need
to
happen,
and
we
wouldn't
need
to
spend
money
on
it.
For
example,
there
was
a
cash
disbursement
and
I
saw
that
a
check
was
made
to
Recology
by
our
Arcata
house
partnership
for
twenty
four
thousand
dollars.
J
K
On
October
5th
2022,
the
city
council
meeting
awarded
a
con
Construction
contract
for
the
phase,
one
of
the
Arcata
wastewater
treatment
facilities,
Improvement
project
for
51
million
495
000..
You
also
authorized
the
city
engineer
to
increase
the
contract
amount
up
to
3
million.
Eighty
nine
thousand.
That's
was
six
six
percent
for
a
total
of
54
million
five
hundred
and
eighty
four
thousand
seven
hundred,
and
this
was
allowed
for
any
unforeseen
additional
work.
This
the
cost
now
is
62
million
dollars.
K
So
I
don't
know
whether
you're
aware
of
that,
and
if
you
are
aware
of
that,
why
aren't
you
asking
the
question
of
how
they
exceeded
that
amount?
I
mean
you.
It
was
pretty
generous.
The
amount
that
that
you're
giving
so
you
had
two
bids.
The
first
bid
was
for
54
51
million
four
hundred
ninety
five
thousand.
The
second
bid
was
62
million,
eight
hundred
and
eighty
eight
thousand.
K
That
was
the
one
that
you
rejected
and
also
they
were
threatening
to
see
as
I
recall
that
that
evening
was
to
spend
a
lot
of
time
addressing
the
City
attorney.
So
the
first
bid,
according
to
the
engineer,
was
Thirty
thirty
percent
higher
than
their
estimate,
and
the
second
bid
was
58
percent
higher
than
what
the
engineer
estimated
at
62
million
eight
eight
eight.
So
basically
we're
at
that
figure,
now
of
which
was
58
percent
higher
than
what
we
expected
so
for
something
this
important.
Why
isn't
your?
K
She
was
having
quite
a
time
dealing
with
Zoom
with
you
had
the
second
party
that
was
quite
upset,
and
then
you
had
the
front
row
with
the
the
ones
that
were
awarded
the
contract
and
they
basically
were
you
know
acknowledging.
Yes,
things
have
gone
up
and
you
know
we're
going
to
manage
this
and
and
and
tell
us
why?
K
So
my
question
is:
why
isn't
anybody
asking
this
question
of
I
mean
that's
some
serious
money
and
this
is
a
serious
project
phase,
one
where,
where
are
we
at
with
this,
and
also
there
was
a
quite
a
few
comments
in
the
North
the
journal
I
think
two
weeks
ago
about
this
project
too.
There
was
a
lot
of
bird
watchers
that
were
pretty
upset
about.
K
L
L
The
planning
Commissioners
asked
three
times
in
February
through
May
of
2022,
for
some
evidence
of
the
form-based
code
and
David
lawyer
said
nothing
and
then
finally
acknowledged
that
he
had,
as
he
said,
tapped
the
brakes
it
wasn't
in
existence.
Didn't
he
had
ceased
it
without
any
discussion
with
the
Planning
Commission
on
April
11,
there
was
a
vote
on
the
elk
and
K
Street
couplet.
L
It
was
to
recognize
that
the
couplet
was
an
option,
one
of
several
options.
A
motion
was
made
and
seconded
and
then
there's
a
discussion
of
close
to
half
an
hour.
During
that
half
an
hour,
David
lawyer
suggested
a
different
proposal
and
somehow
the
motion-
morphed
I've,
looked
at
the
transcription.
The
video
I
know
what
happened,
but
it's
more
from
what
was
perceived
as
a
recommendation.
Excuse
me
from
what
was
perceived
as
an
option,
one
of
several
options
to
a
recommendation.
L
The
vote
occurred
and
the
commissioner
who
had
seconded
the
motion
retracted
his
vote
and
changed
his
vote.
So
he
recognized
that
it
was
a
different
motion
than
the
original
motion.
I
believe
you're,
aware
that
the
chair
of
the
transportation,
Safety
Committee
Dave
Ryan,
is
very
upset.
The
summary
of
the
transportation
Safety
Committee
was
completely
mangled
by
staff
in
its
presentation.
It
doesn't
reflect
at
all
with
the
transportation
Safety
Committee
said.
L
A
planning,
commissioner,
has
requested
that
Dave
Ryan
or
another
asani
from
the
Transportation
safety
unit
should
come
to
the
commission
directly.
Typically,
communication
goes
through
David
lawyer,
but
in
this
case
that's
proved
to
be
not
accurate.
The
same
situation
has
occurred
with
economic
development
committee.
Their
recommendations
also
were
very
strongly
changed.
I'll
say
they
are
not
as
upset
because
they
believe
they're
an
advisory
situation,
but
transportation
Safety
Committee
is
very
involved
on
Saturday
I
mentioned
earlier.
L
L
Finally,
the
third
time
David
Lloyd
referred
to
the
commission
and
in
two
minutes
they
agreed
unanimously
that
it
should
be
on
the
agenda
should
be
prioritized,
should
be
the
first
thing
on
the
agenda
so
that
members
of
the
public
who
had
been
coming
to
meetings
and
not
being
able
to
speak,
could
know
when
they
were
going
to
come
to
the
meetings.
Okay
within
20
seconds,
David
Lloyd
had
changed
this
to
be
that
he
would
send
an
e-notification
I'm,
not
making
this
up.
Okay,
it's
all
in
the
video
it's
in
the
transcripts.
L
The
notification
went
out
on
Monday
with
a
very
strange.
What
I
regard
is
a
very
strange
subject
line
said:
April
27th
through
12
2023,
special
meeting
outstanding
items.
I,
don't
think
that
phrase
outstanding
items
has
anything
to
do
with
parcel
rezoning.
It
means
nothing
on
thurs,
I
sent
a
sharply
worded
letter.
I
know
to
you
on
that.
Monday
and
I
spoke
to
the
commission
on
Tuesday
saying
this
needs
to
be
on
the
agenda.
L
Thursday
came.
The
agenda
was
not
changed.
I
received
over
30
emails
and
phone
calls
on
Thursday
asking
me:
what
should
people
do?
Should
they
come
to
the
meeting?
What
was
on
the
agenda
was
a
circulation
element.
There
was
nothing
about
the
rezoning
the
ironically.
The
rezoning
had
been
on
the
agenda
eight
times
previously,
but
it
was
not
on
that
night
when
people
actually
were
told
to
come
from
that.
L
E-Notification
I
have
an
article
about
this
from
the
keto
one,
it's
a
long
article,
but
you
can
read
two
or
three
minutes
of
it
and
get
the
entire
gist
of
it.
The
rest
of
it
is
just
back
up
for
what
actually
happened.
I,
don't
fault.
The
chair
I
think
he
was
in
a
difficult
situation
and
did
the
best
he
could.
But
there
is
no
reason
why
that
was
not
on
the
agenda.
The
article
has
videos
transcriptions.
L
L
The
in
the
midst
of
all
this,
we
had
a
discussion
about
resulting
the
parcels
and
staff
made
one
of
the
parcels
wrong.
Things
are
not
going
well
from
my
point
of
view,
I
think
you
know
how
I
feel
I
think
you
have
a
completely
out
of
control
community
development
director
who
needs
to
be
rained
in
and
you
are
the
people
to
do.
It
feel
free
to
call
me.
Thank
you.
A
F
N
But
the
fact
that
we're
going
to
have
different
forms
of
I
mean
just
like
their
little
electric
bikes,
now
and
and
other
ways
of
getting
around.
We
may
end
up
with
a
whole
bunch
of
little
smart
cars,
Cal
Poly
humble,
is
going
to
put
up
a
parking
garage.
The
point
that
was
made
about
the
number
of
parking
spaces
at
the
new
facility
of
Craftsman's
mall
is
a
good
point.
N
You
need
to
look
at
the
cost
benefits
and
what
liability
the
city
may
have
for
encouraging
development
in
that
kind
of
situation,
where
you
know
affirmatively,
what's
going
to
happen
over
time,
and
we
need
to
be
thinking
in
terms
of
what's
going
to
happen
to
areas
like
the
bottoms
things
like
that.
Where
are
we
going
to
move
people
and
where
should
we
be
building,
and
it
could
be
that
what
we
really
need
to
be
encouraging
is
adus,
not
four-story
buildings?
N
In
some
of
these
rezonings,
we
don't
need
if
we
took
single
family
parcels
and
encourage
people
to
build
adus
or
do
what
they're
allowed
to
do,
which,
if
they
have
the
space,
they
can
put
two
two
houses
on
that
same
space
plus
Adu
for
each
one.
That
makes
four
on
a
single
parcel.
We
should
maybe
be
thinking
more
along
those
lines
than
of
putting
up
four-story
buildings
where
like.
If
my
neighbor
suddenly
did
this-
and
we
had
just
thank.
B
R
The
traffic
calming
devices
I
mean
there's
lots
of
options.
We
have
for
traffic
coming
devices
along
K
Street,
whether
it
be
like
race,
crosswalks
or
bulb
outs.
I'm.
A
big
advocate
for
stop
signs,
they're,
cheap
and
they're
effective
for
letting
people
cross
safely,
GH
and
J
Street
for
the
same
length
of
road
that
the
L
Street
would
be
from
Alliance
to
Samoa
that
same
stretch.
They
have
all
have
seven
stop
signs.
Each.
The
only
calming
devices
that
exist
now
are
K
Street.
R
There
are
Rails
to
Trails
that
they
it
just
economically
Revitalize
the
town
and
that
area
tremendously
I
would
suggest
you
look
up
Winter
Gardens
Florida
on
strong
towns.
It's
a
great
article,
so
yeah
I
would
just
say
you
know:
We've
continued
to
collect
signatures,
we're
over
700
signatures
now
for
the
L
Street
linear
Park,
to
keep
that
corridor
open
and
protect
it
and
I.
R
F
S
S
At
their
last
meeting
on
land
use
element,
the
Commissioners
voted
to
keep
an
agricultural
exclusive
designation
for
a
parcel
that
was
slated
to
be
upon
the
residential
high
density,
though
the
one
that's
located:
alliance
between
17th
and
Foster
on
public
pressure
and
commissioner
sediment
prevailed.
The
conversation
was
about
preserving
Open
Spaces,
specifically
AG
land.
S
However,
the
greater
conversation
was
about
the
limited
Open
Spaces
in
Arcata.
There's
a
continual
sediment
to
preserve
open
natural
spaces
in
Arcata,
the
North
and
South
ends
of
the
L
Street
rails
with
Trails
Corridor
is
Greenway
and
its
valuable
Open
Spaces
that
I
think
with
it
being
paved
over.
Those
will
be
lost
forever
and
I
think
those
will
be
could
be
very
integral
and
should
be
very
integral
to
the
linear
Park.
S
You
know,
and
on
that
note
I
will
just
read
to
you
one
more
time:
the
language
we
support,
the
existing
L
Street
bicycle
pedestrian
Pathway
to
be
officially
designated
as
a
linear
Park
from
Alliance
road
to
Samoa
Boulevard
and
this
linear
Park
be
preserved
and
enhanced
is
a
green
space
for
recreation
play
and
Community.
We
also
support
the
spoken
recommendation
from
the
chair
of
Arcata
Transportation
Safety
Committee
at
its
August
2nd
meeting,
2022
revise
the
circulation
plan
that
eliminates
L
Street
as
being
considered
for
new
streets
and
car
traffic.
S
The
series
recommended
to
become
a
car
free,
linear,
Park
that
prioritizes
people.
You
know,
as
if
Open
Spaces
you
know
they
rely
either
linear
Park
will
rely
on
Open
Spaces
in
the
right-of-way
of
the
existing
railroad
Trail
corridor
to
best
serve
our
potatoes
feature,
infill,
greater
Humboldt,
Bay
Area
and
the
great
Redwood
Trail
and
Beyond
and
I'll.
Just
reiterate
one
more
time.
S
The
signers
include
previous
council
members
and
Mayors
business
members,
Architects
members
of
the
local
Sierra
Club
community
members
of
all
ages,
including
Cal
Poly
students,
a
broad
spectrum
of
customers
using
the
co-op,
including
out
of
town
visitors,
signers
from
neighborhood
and
Arcata,
and
around
online
signatures
at
this
point
are
I,
have
to
double
check
but
I
think
we're
up
to
close
to
about
137.
You
know
and
just
realize
many
of.
O
A
M
Yeah
I
just
wanted
to
see
if
anybody
else
has
had
an
opportunity
to
read
that
article,
it
was
really
exciting
about
the
economic
revitalization.
The
pictures
were
super
awesome.
They
did
this
open
market
where
the
railroad
Trails
were,
and
it
was
exciting
because
I
could
almost
visualize
what
that
would
look
like
on
the
L
Street,
linear
Park
and
the
creamery
District,
and
it
would
really
be
sad
if
we
didn't
take
advantage
of
that
opportunity.
A
E
E
The
other
thing
I
wanted
to
ask
is
this:
is
something
I
don't
remember
this,
but
could
you
let
me
know
when
we
started
to
someone
could
say
I'm
going
to
concede
my
time
to
this
next
speaker,
so
you
could
get
maybe
10
people
in
line,
and
everyone
would
say
that
and
then
the
person
would
have
30
minutes
or
whatever.
When
did
that
start
previously?.
E
I'm
just
curious
about
that.
The
other
thing
I
was
thinking
about
is
the
consent,
calendar
and
I.
Just
don't
recall
this
in
the
past,
but
maybe
it
happened,
pulling
items
off
the
consent
calendar
that
weren't
pulled
off
by
the
you
know
asking
the
public.
Do
you
have
anything
you
want
to
take
off
this
consent?
M
I
was
not
able
to
attend
that
Broadband,
so
I'm
really
excited
and
happy
that
you
did
hoping
that
you
will
share
a
little
bit
more
in
depth.
I
was
looking
forward
to
it,
so
I'm
happy
I
was
able
to
attend
Redwood
Regional
Economic
Development
commission
as
a
liaison
for
the
city,
and
they
did
the
state
of
Humboldt
County's
cannabis.
It
was
really
interesting
presentation
by
natalene
Delane.
M
Lab
I
deleted
my
mess,
my
notes
somehow
so
I'm
trying
to
recapture
it
all
and
then
also
redec,
did
also
they
pushed
forward
on
the
core
hub
for
the
option.
Offshore
Wind
Community
benefits,
so
that
was
also
very
interesting.
I
attended
the
homeless,
housing
working
group
and
there's
a
lot
of
movement
going
on
in
there
Arcata
house,
partnership
I
also
attended.
M
They
completed
their
extreme
weather,
shelter
and
there's
going
to
be
a
mixer
there
tomorrow,
at
The,
Groves,
extreme
weather,
shelter,
so
you'll
get
to
see
it
in
all
its
Glory
looks
good
and
then
kuna
just
kicked
off
our
second
brainstorming
session,
or
we
will
be
actually
on
Sunday
with
Cal
Poly
humble
our
first
one
was
with
the
new
residents
at
the
Grove.
So
that's
moving
right
along
oh
and
I
wanted
to.
M
Let
folks
know
that
Arcata
house
partnership
will
be
starting
a
food
pantry
in
light
of
the
recent
changes
of
post
covet
of
folks
no
longer
getting
that
extra
pandemic.
Calfresh
that
there's
this
I'm
really
concerned
about.
There's
going
to
be
less
food
in
our
communities,
they're
going
to
be
doing
that
Friday
afternoons
through
September
and
it'll
be
in
the
afternoon.
You
don't
actually
have
to
be
unhoused
or
low
income.
You
just
need
to
have
a
need
and
go
and
help
yourself
there's
going
to
be
lots.
M
A
Got
awesome,
my
big
things
exciting
in
the
world
of
rcea,
we
are
opening
up
to
the
local
tribes,
and
so
we
also
voted
to
let
the
Blue
Lake
Rancheria
join
our
jpa
as
well
kind
of
pending
some
hammering
out
from
the
the
ranch
area
on
their
side,
but
our
board
voted
unanimously
to
have
the
Rancheria
join
as
well.
We
also
celebrated
the
20th
anniversary
of
our
cea
last
Friday,
which
was
a
wonderful
fun
event
with
a
lot
of
speakers
throughout
the
past
of
rcea's.
A
History
20
years
is
a
long
time
for
a
local
organization
to
exist,
so
it
was
cool
to
hear
their
stories
and
get
to
chat
with
some
people
and
also
meet
some
of
our
new
board
members,
because
we've
both
added
the
Iraq
tribe
and
the
Blue
Lake
Rancheria
to
our
jpa
pretty
recently.
So
that's
all
exciting
and
I'm
on
the
budget
subcommittee
and
I
get
to
go,
learn
about
RCA's
budget
and
I'm
so
excited
and
then
just
continuing
work
as
well
with
Equity
arcade.
A
I
A
Because
I
saw
the
sign
up
for
for
donations
into
the
city
manager,
Office
it'll
be
at
D,
Street,
Community
Center,
we'll
get
a
date
on
it,
but
the
home
away
from
home
events
and
the
last
one
was
at
wildberries
and
was
enormously
successful
and
so
they're
hoping
to
get
even
more
students
to
come
to
the
event
with
it
being
a
little
bit
closer
to
campus
there
at
D,
Street,
so
yeah
and
Oyster
Fest
is
June.
10Th,
don't
forget.
D
H
Hcog
this
month
we
had
a
presentation
about
the
great
Redwood
Trail
and
just
before,
I
get
into
that.
Just
in
general.
I
have
asked
more
than
one
time,
because
often
you
know,
we've
been
hearing
trails
to
rails,
and
that
is
really
not
how
we
do
things
in
Arcata
and
I've
double
checked
many
times,
and
we
we
will
keep
our
Trails
one
way
or
the
other,
including
the
great
white
Trail,
and
they
have
some
upcoming
events
which
have
opportunities
for
the
public
to
engage
and
participate
in
and
some
of
those
would.
H
H
County
Alone
are
about
when
it's
built
out
and
functioning
48
million
dollars
to
our
Three
Counties
that
it's
running
through
Mendo
Trinity
and
Humboldt
over
102
million
dollars
so
it'll,
be
a
great
economic
driver
for
our
communities
and
supervisor
of
a
drone
is
vice
chair
of
the
great
Redwood
Trail
committee.
So,
if
folks
want
more
information,
they
can
contact
him
and
also
May
is
bike
month.
I
mean
there's
lots
of
events,
so
I'm
trying
to
participate.
A
Yeah
I
saw
gosh
yeah
I
wish
I
wrote
down
these
dates,
but
if
you
go
on
the
Instagram
for
bike
month,
they
have
a
ton
of
posts,
but
they're
doing
a
morning,
if
you're
on
your
bike
and
you're
biking
to
work
at
the
co-op
in
Arcata
they're
going
to
be
like
free
bike,
tune-ups
from
Adventures
Edge,
you
can
get
free
coffee
and
like
baked
goods
from
the
co-op
and
just
learn
more
about
bike
safety
and
biking
to
work.
Also,
and
the
city
is
helping
host
the
Bike
Rodeo
that's
coming
up
this
month
as
well.
