Lame Duck Harbor Commission Talks and Tables

BY ROGER GITLIN Country Media, Inc.

The mood at last week’s Crescent City Harbor District (CCHD) meeting was apprehensive and tense.

Lame duck commissioners Harry Adams, Wes White and Brian Stone, along with incumbents Rick Shepherd and Gerhard Weber were poised to act to:

• Consider and vote to Introduce, Revise and Approve the CCHD Credit Card Policy

• Consider and vote to approve sending a response to the Del Norte Civil Grand Jury Report.

Both items were talked and tabled with no consensus.

The absence of any type of credit card spending policy has wreaked ﬁnancial havoc and lots of frustration and anger by commissioners. Last week, The Triplicate reported rampant spending of thousands of dollars on a highly questionable Temporary Restraining Order against a Bayside RV tenant for $6,000 and a list of CCHD credit card charges, some legitimate, many not, mixed with the intent to obfuscate the of proper accounting of the CCHD. The target of this unwanted

attention appeared to be Harbormaster Tim Petrick.

As a result of intense public and media scrutiny, Petrick submitted his resignation as Harbormaster, effective September 30.

Prior to the New Business agenda item, The Triplicate distributed the latest newspaper to each commissioner with the prominent front page article on alleged misuse of the Harbor CCHD credit card and to all ﬁve candidates in attendance, running for the three vacancies soon to be open.

Beleaguered Harbormaster Resigns

Crescent City- The Crescent City Harbor Commission (CCHD) has accepted the resignation of beleaguered Harbormaster Tim Petrick, effective, October 1 Petrick has been under intense scrutiny and criticism for alleged misuse of the

CCHD credit card and failure to provide commissioners with monthly credit card receipts.

Board president Harry Adams expressed the Commission’s sentiments stating, “We have accepted Mr. Petrick’s resignation and extend our best wishes

for his future endeavors. The Board is committed to ensuring a smooth transition and continue to focus on the long-term success of our Harbor.”

Assistant Harbormaster

Mike Rademaker added “The Crescent City Harbor District remains dedicated

to maintaining the highest standards of service during this transition.”

Three incumbent commissioners have chosen not to run again. Commissioners Wes White, Brian Stone and president Harry Adams did not ﬁle papers for the November 5th

election. Five candidates are vying for the three vacancies.

Assistant Harbormaster Rademaker will assume control of harbor operations, awaiting appointment as interim harbormaster by the Harbor Commission

Guest Column Door Dash Devours the Harbormaster

by samuel strait

Crescent City

Probably most in Del Norte County have learned Harbormaster Tim Petrick has tendered his resignation from the Crescent City Harbor District. It would not be a stretch to think that the role he played over the past three years at the harbor may have been most significant in the financial quagmire the harbor finds itself in, presently. Petrick’s questionable abuse of the Harbor credit card, including serial use of excessive Door Dash services while attending a harbor conference in Monterey, may have contributed to the harbormaster’s resignation. Make no mistake, Petrick ‘s indifference to the harbor’s dire financial condition was glaring.

Commissioners bear responsibility for limited if any oversight on Petrick’s irresponsibility.

Failed solar power fauxster Lemus development projects at the harbor’s

RV parks, the solar panel debacle, Fashion Blacksmith and harbor dredging, the list goes on and on… Plus, the current list of Petrick’s future aspirations reads like the list of a child writing to Santa, Tim Petrick is not the only person who should be submitting a letter of resignation.

For years the taxpayers have been fleeced by representatives, and government employees who spend money in dubious fashion over the course of their tenured careers without so much as a serious rebuke. Quite often these miscreants are protected from within, remaining hidden from the public. When exposed, suitable excuses are offered, and the uproar goes away

It appears that Harbormaster Petrick was quite fond of whipping out the old harbor credit card to pay for goods and services while dubious at best, can hardly be associated with a harbor in desperate financial straits. The credit card statements, after

Charleen Rae Hoy

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Charleen Rae Hoy, 85, on August 13, 2024. Charleen was born to Charles A Markley and Genevieve Mae Markley, on February 12, 1939, in Staples, Minnesota. The Markley family moved to Crescent City in 1956. Charleen joined them in 1957. Charleen was preceded in death by her parents and her husband, Merle Henry Hoy. She is survived by her sister and brother-in-law, Sandy and Mark Greenfield, of Tallahassee, Florida. Charleen

lengthy bouts of stonewalling, revealed a pattern of carefree spending by the harbormaster that is often a characteristic of those in power with little or compliant oversight.

Keeping in mind that the Harbor Commission, the Commission’s Chief Financial Officer, and the Grand Jury all whitewashed Harbor Master Petrick’s credit card behavior as perfectly legitimate, yet he still resigned. The obvious question perhaps should be asked is what is being swept under the rug by the now clearly lame duck Commission?

Some of the explanations thus far have bordered on the absurd as the adventures in Door Dash were revealed. Accounts of lunches, liquor purchases, golf balls and airline tickets were just a microcosm of activities that raised eyebrows at the recent Commissioner’s meeting. Had the lame duck Commission been on vacation for the past three

years and not met?

Apologies to the public, but that clearly is how things work at the government feeding trough. It has become a regular phenomenon, where boards like the harbor blindly stumble from one train wreck to another wasting tax dollars like they are in endless supply. Often led by the nose, our representatives have no problem with the fantasy world offered by employees to save their proverbial bacon. This is how the situation with the harbormaster was allowed to be metastasized, unchecked for years. While the harbormaster is now gone and three of the lame duck Commissioners are to be replaced, there is still work to be done. It may be easier if the two remaining Commissioners were to resign, and changes were made at office manager, Chief Financial Officer, and legal representation before moving forward with a new board. Clearly that will not

immediately change the financial challenges the new players will face, but hopefully those new faces will be up to the task of moving the harbor forward. The appetite for Door Dash grub should not

expect any future business from the harbormaster, unless a personal credit card is offered.

I have a story about the way the city/RV parks in crescent city discriminate against elderly on fixed income and how unfairly applicates are treated when it comes to their discretion to kick someone out when they past the background check, paid their money, and actually moved just to be kicked out the very next morning for some reason like we came in too late (9:00pm) the transport driver had truck problems with the tow, completely not my fault. It wasn’t late. We think it’s because we mentioned having a beer with dinner while we waited for truck. The manager said “ now I’m gonna think you party all the time”. All of our money went into this move and now we have to move! I did othing wrong to deserve this treatment from Sunset Harbor RV park. We are elderly, moving a trailer is a big stressful task. Why does the city make it so hard for people with RVs to live here? The rents are impossible for most of the people on SSA to pay! Melissa Waller Crescent City

was also a stepmother to her husband’s children. Charleen was a talented lady. She began painting and sketching at a young age and loved to paint the beauty of Crescent City. Blessed with a lovely voice, she loved singing for church from age six. Charleen was our beloved sister, a true friend, a source of joy, love and laughter, a child of God, God’s faithful servant. She had a unique personality, she was true to herself, which was an endearing quality. We are grateful for the life she shared with us. We miss her. We would like to thank the Crescent City Skilled Nursing facility for their superb care, care with skill and love. There Charleen found a home and friendship for many years among the patient residents and the staff.

Edward “Eddie” B. Rankin

2/27/1956 - 8/27/2024

Edward Brice Rankin left this world on August 27, 2024, in Grants Pass, Oregon. He was born February 27, 1956, in Santa Monica, California. The family moved to Crescent City, California, in 1963 where he attended local schools: Joe Hamilton, Crescent Elk, and Del Norte High School. He married Sherri Darnel in 1981 and together they had two children, daughter Alyshia and son Darrik. They divorced in 1995 and remained very close friends. He was the eldest of five children and took great pride in pulling pranks on his siblings. He loved being outdoors and searching for old mining sights and digging up old bottles and relics. He had many achievements, a remarkable singing voice and a flair for painting. His quick wit and stellar personality made him a popular figure on social media. When a friend or member of his family needed help, he was there without question. In later years he ventured out to states such as Florida and Nevada but always knew he’d come

back to the place he loved most, Grants Pass, Oregon, and northern California. He found peace in the redwoods. He worked for Pinkerton Security and was a home health care provider for many years. He was enjoying his best life in retirement. He was a beloved brother, husband, father, grandfather and son. He leaves behind his former wife Sherri Nash, his daughter Alyshia Pacino, and granddaughter Isabella Pacino all of Merlin, Oregon; grandson Demitrti Pacino who is serving in the United States Army in Texas, and grandson Joey Rankin of Florida. He was preceded in death by grandparents Edward and Myrtle Kelly from Santa Monica, California; his parents Earl and Alice Rankin, his sister Janice Rankin all from Crescent City, California; his beloved only son Darrik Rankin from Florida; and his life partner and best friend of 30 years Phillip Stockwell.

He will be greatly missed by his remaining siblings Earl Rankin from Texas, Raymond Rankin of Grants Pass, and sister Colleen Rankin of Exeter, New

Hampshire. There are no words to express the void he leaves behind. It is a vacancy that cannot, nor will ever be filled. Eddie, you were one of a kind and completely irreplaceable. He was loved beyond measure and anyone that ever knew him was better for having had him in their life. We can all be inspired by one of his favorite quotes, “As long as you continue to try, you haven’t failed”. Eddie expressed his wishes in having no services, yet he will live on forever in the hearts and in the memories of those he leaves behind. Go with God dear brother. We shall see and feel you again in the warmth of the sun and in the soft breeze that whispers through the redwood trees you loved so much.

Joanne was born in Weed, CA, to Lola and Rufus Wilson and moved to Crescent City in 1939. She graduated from Del Norte High School and spent two years at Humboldt State University, majoring in Pre-Med and minoring in Art. She spent three years in nursing training at San Jose State University, began her career as a Registered Nurse in Surgery, and retired as an Office Nurse with Dr. Vipond and Dr. Thomas in 1976. Joanne met and married Homer Dale in 1952 and raised their family in San Jose, CA. In 1967, Joanne and her husband moved to Crescent City to build and operate the Crescent City KOA Campground for the

next ten years. They saw and fell in love with the historical McNulty House during this time. When it became available for purchase, they pursued their dream of a gallery and gift shop, known at the time as McNulty House Gallery.

Joanne spent most of her “retirement” doing what she loved: Art in various mediums. Joanne and Homer moved to Galt, CA, in 2009 to be near her daughter, Leesa Klotz, and in 2022, she moved to Reno, NV, to live with her son and daughter-in-law, Craig and Pam Dale. Joanne passed away peacefully on August 15 in the presence of her family. She was preceded in death by her parents,

Thomas Edward Baker January 6, 1935 - September 7, 2024

Thomas Edward Baker, aged 89, passed away on September 7, 2024, at his home in Crescent City, California. Tom was born on January 6, 1935 in Huntington Park, California to James and Bessie Baker. He was preceded in death by his parents, four brothers, and two sisters. Tom was known for his friendly demeanor and his deep love for his family and friends. He was a skilled and passionate craftsman who could fix anything, which was evident in his professional and personal life.

Tom proudly served in the United States Navy aboard the USS Essex during the Korean War from 1952 to 1956. His military service was a significant chapter in his life, contributing to his skills and discipline, which he later applied in his civilian career.

Following his military

service, Tom and his wife, Vera moved to Manteca, California where they raised their three sons and resided for 30 years. Tom established a successful automotive repair business in Manteca, which he operated for several years. He later transitioned to working as a licensed engineer on ocean going tugboats in the Gulf of Mexico, Hawaii, and the West Coast.

In 1990, Tom and Vera visited Crescent City, California to go salmon fishing and instantly fell in love with the area. Before their two-week visit was over, they had purchased a house, making Crescent City their home. They were later joined in Crescent City by all three of their sons. Tom’s hobbies included fishing, hunting, and traveling extensively across the United States including Alaska and Hawaii, Baja and Canada.

Karli Dale. (Condolences can be mailed to Craig Dale, 3230 Show Jumper Ln, Reno, NV 89521.)

He was passionate about his family, working in his garage, maintaining his property and vehicles, and caring for his dogs and chickens. Tom will be sorely missed by his beloved wife of 72 years, Vera; and their sons Brent (Debbie), Mike, and Vince; along with his grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews. Tom’s life was marked by his dedication to his family, his service to his country, and his love for the outdoors and mechanical work. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

City Introduces Ordinances on Parking and RV’s

by ROGER GITLIN Country Media, Inc.

The City introduced two Ordinances involving restricted parking on B Street, approaching the pier and a separate Ordinance on RV Occupancy on private property.

• Police Chief Richard Griffin expressed concern with vehicles parking along the portion of B Street that extends from the mainland into the bay. The section of the road is a single lane with no shoulder. Vehicles are unable to move all four tires off the roadway. If cars park opposite each other, it is difficult to move a single vehicle through. This condition could impede emergency response vehicles from accessing the pier in an emergency. The Resolution prohibits parking on and along B Street from the first light pole southwest of the Waste Water treatment Plant to the terminus of the B Street Pier. The proposed Ordinance will be discussed

and voted upon at the first City Council meeting in October and if passed will effectuate when signs are erected after 30 days from passage.

• The City introduced Ordinance 847 amending the Crescent City Municipal Code, addressing the storage and occupancy of recreational vehicles. The proposed Ordinance addresses parked or stored RV’s on a residential parcel for longer than 72 hours must have a dwelling unit that has received a certificate of occupancy. Storage is limited to one RV per dwelling.

Temporary occupancy of the recreational vehicle is limited to 14 nights per 90 day period.

Only one RV may be occupied on a residential parcel at a time.

All RV’s must be parked at least five feet from lot lines, easements and structures, clear of utility outlets, be on level ground and stable.

The Ordinance effectuates 30 days after passage from the first meeting in October.

Open Letter of Resignation from Timothy Petrick, Harbormaster of Crescent City Harbor District

To the People of Crescent City and the Crescent City Harbor Community,

After much thought and consideration, I am announcing my decision to step down as Harbormaster of Crescent City Harbor District, effective Sep-

tember 30th. Serving this remarkable community has been a great honor, and I leave this position with immense pride in what we have accomplished together.

Over the past four years, we have seen tremendous growth and progress.

The harbor has not only been the lifeblood of our local community but also a source of pride for everyone who calls CCHD home. Together, we’ve secured over $15,000,000 in funding for vital infrastructure improvements, which will strengthen

the harbor’s capacity and ensured it remains a key hub for both commercial and recreational vessels for years to come.

Some of the major highlights during my tenure include:

• The funding and per-

mitting of the expansion of the pier facilities, allowing for an increase in cargo capacity and smoother operations.

• The successful updating of dozens of outdated and underperforming leases.

the trust and collaboration that made these achievements possible.

Wild Rivers Coast Brookings

• Securing critical state and federal grants to modernize harbor infrastructure, fortify sea walls, and improve overall safety for all mariners.

• Collaborating with local businesses and stakeholders to promote maritime tourism, bringing significant economic benefits to the entire community.

• And leaving the harbor in a position for major development and growth in the coming years.

This success is a testament to the dedication and hard work of everyone involved—the harbor staff, local officials, the commercial fishing community, recreational boaters, and our countless partners at the state and federal level. I am deeply grateful for

As I step away, I do so with full confidence that the harbor is well-positioned for continued success and growth. I know that with strong leadership CCHD will remain a beacon of strength for our region, a vital contributor to our economy, and a source of enjoyment for generations to come. I wish nothing but the best for my successor and the entire harbor team. I have no doubt they will continue to uphold the high standards we have worked so hard to establish.

Thank you again to everyone who has supported me and helped make this journey successful.

With deep gratitude and warmest wishes for the future,

Timothy Petrick Former Harbormaster Crescent City Harbor District

If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

You may examine the file kept by the court.

If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE

TO PROPERTY OWNER:

The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (844) 477-7869 or visit this Internet Web site www.STOXPOSTING. com, using the file number assigned to this case 2431206.

the executive response.

From page 1

The spending habits of the recently-resigned harbormaster, one might call Mr. Petrick a spendthrift.

The five candidates in the audience at the CCHD Conference Room are John Evans, Dan Schmidt, Annie Nehmer, Linda Sutter and Devon Morgante.

Public Comment was highly critical of lack of commission oversight and alleged abuse by the Harbormaster of the CCHD credit card.

Commissioner response was also biting. Lame Duck Commissioner Stone

said, “I’m appalled by what’s happening over the years! I’ve constantly asked for copies of the monthly credit card. These requests were ignored and never brought to me. Until our most CCHD meeting, I’d never been provided these receipts.”

Colleague lame ducker White also expressed his frustration in not receiving the credit card statements. “No personal use of the credit card should be permitted and if the misuse happened, we’ve got a problem that must be addressed at that time. The only person authorized to use the credit card is the office manager.”

Three term Commissioner White’s after-the-event observations did not resonate with those in the audience. Commissioner Weber questioned the legitimacy of many of the credit card charges.

Lame Ducker President Adams emphatically stated, “the only individual who should have a Harbor credit card is the office manager, and limit the use to $5000. Food should be limited to $50 per diem.”

The can was “kicked down the road.”

Stone, without any action on the credit card discussion, inexplicably

moved on to the Grand Jury Response item which initiated an entirely new discussion.

Ultimately, the lame duck Commission tabled the discussion on credit card policy.

Submitting a response to the Del Norte Grand Jury was also fogged in confusion. For reasons not clarified, the response allowed both an executive and CCHD response. The executive response held a September 30 deadline. The CCHD response allowed an additional 30 days for the lame duck Commission. Stone questioned Petrick as to

The harbormaster stated he had nothing to do with the executive response. Stone came millimeters short of calling the harbormaster a liar. “You are misleading the Commission,” exclaimed Stone. Discussion on the response to the Grand Jury was halted, then tabled on a 5-0 vote Commissioners adjourned to Closed Session centering on the evaluation of Harbormaster Petrick, in the wake of the commissioners voting a 7.2 percent pay Raise from $125,000 to $134,000 annual salary for Petrick.

During Public Comments, Community System Solutions principal Mike Bahr staunchly came to the defense of the beleaguered harbor master, to no avail and those in the audience including public speaker Sam Strait disputed Bahr’s praise of Petrick, alleging malfeasance and unethical practices.

The Harbor meets the 1st and 3rd Tuesday’s at 3pm at the Harbor offices, 101 Citizens Dock Rd.

On September 16, 2024, Pacific Power filed an application with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) for approval to increase rates for the recovery of costs associated with restoring service and repairing damage caused to company-owned facilities during the Smith River Complex and Happy Camp Complex fires in the summer of 2023. Pacific Power promptly restored service to customers as part of the company’s commitment to providing safe and reliable service to customers..

WHY IS PACIFIC POWER REQUESTING THIS RATE INCREASE?

Pacific Power is requesting to increase its rates March 1, 2025 for approximately two years, to recover costs recorded in the Catastrophic Events Memorandum Account (CEMA) associated with the following:

• Restoring electric service to customers and repairing damage caused by two fires in August 2023;

• Coordinating the shut off of power in response to public safety partner requests;

• Establishment of Community Resource Centers, deployment of temporary power generators; and;

• Reconstruction of facilities.

This application will be reviewed by the CPUC to determine if the costs are reasonable and eligible for recovery from customers before any rate increase is potentially approved.

HOW COULD THIS AFFECT MY MONTHLY ELECTRIC RATES?

The proposed rate increase will be a surcharge designed to collect approximately $25.9 million over a two-year period. If approved, the surcharge would result in the following estimated average increase to each customer class listed below:
