Opting out of the Tri-Agency

Joint Powers Authority, the City narrowly passed a motion to negotiate a dissolution agreement with the County and Harbor, including an equal share of the costs of existing litigation, dissolution and any other outstanding debts of the Tri-Agency.

The motion to terminate was made by Councilor Isaiah Wright, who apologized for not being in attendance at the joint meeting, seconded by Councilor Ray Altman. Council Members Jason Greenough and Kelley Schellong voted NO. Mayor Blake Inscore broke the deadlock, voting YES.

Hunter and Panther Creek Bridges Project completed

BY ROGER GITLIN Country Media. Inc.

The challenges were immense, it certainly wasn’t easy but the long overdue Hunter/Panther Bridges Replacement Project on Highway 101 just north of Klamath has been completed with an appropriate ribbon cutting ceremony.

The Project replaced the outdated , narrow corridor long past its 50 year design life expectancy.

The new bridges feature wider lanes, separated pedestrian paths, fewer piers in the water and a pedestrian railing design created in collaboration with the Yurok Tribe, enhancing safety, accessibility and aesthetics.

Two-way trafﬁc will now resume.

The Project was funded by SB1 the Road Repair and Accountability Act at a cost of $29.1

million. A ﬁve year post-construction allocation of $430,000 for landscape and vegetation is included.

Of note, the Panther Creek Bridge is a ﬁrst: The colorful steel-tied arch bridge is unique, the ﬁrst of its kind designed without piers in the water, protecting juvenile Coho salmon and other aquatic species, in Cal Trans District 1. The dearth of piers minimizes impacts to the Klamath River tributary.

The installation of a broadband middle mile conduit ensures connectivity with the Yurok Tribal community.

Cal Trans Dist.1 Director Matt Brady was on site, praising the teamwork of Cal Trans, Golden State Bridge and the Yurok Tribe. Project Manager David Melendez added, We are proud to

Del Norte Economic Development

BY ROGER GITLIN

Country Media, Inc.

The Del Norte Tri-Agency for Economic Development Joint Powers Authority (Tri-Agency JPA) has been disbanded. In front of a handful audience at last Tuesday’s Special Meeting of the Tri-Agency Economic Authority at the Veterans Hall, Harbor Commissioners, City Councilors and Supervisors were unable to come to terms with language and common goals to work for economic prosperity. The effort to salvage the troubled Authority was both intense, frustrating and ultimately unsuccessful.

Four Harbor Commissioners (Brian Stone, Gerhard Weber, Rick Shepherd and Wes White participated. (Harbor president Harry Adams was absent).

Three Councilors, Mayor Blake Inscore, Kelley Schellong and Jason Greenough represented the City, (Councilmembers Isaiah Wright and Ray Altman were not present).

All ﬁve Supervisors attended the Special Meeting (Valerie Starkey, Chris Howard, Chairman Dean Wilson, Joey Borges and Darrin Short). Each elected spoke either in support or in opposition to language incorporating off-shore wind energy and the position to retain or reject the Tri-Agency governance.

Background: The Tri-Agency Joint Powers Authority for Economic Development arose from the ruins of the 1964 Tsunami disaster. In an effort to stimulate a moribund economy, Tri-Agency Authority formed in 1976. The JPA accumulated a

respectable record. Early accomplishments included: Broadband development and various tourist-related events. In 2011, circumstances changed. Tri-Agency moved into the lending business, a fateful mistake. The JPA applied for and received a $400,000 loan From the U.S. Commerce Dept. at a modest one percent interest rate, and assumed the role of “lender of last resort,” proceeded to make numerous and questionable loans to aspiring but financially unqualified borrowers. In short order, Tri-Agency was burdened with delinquent loans, devoid of capital and collateral and out of business, fired all staff, and saddled itself with huge debt. Tri-Agency was essentially inert.

And there, Tri-Agency languished, existing in name only for almost a decade.

Tri-Agency’s three members cobbled together and paid off a $290,000 delinquent loan to the Department of Agriculture… and, alas, the Tri-Agency was now back to zero.

Last November, Tri-Agency members developed intended identical foundational documents, a new page for a

new day to focus on economic development. Both City and Harbor agencies added a speciﬁc paragraph, 5.05(e) adding the exploration of off-shore wind power to its foundational document. Each member agency contributed funds to Tri-Agency.

From page 1 the unequal funding contributions.

Public Speaker Linda Sutter, long-time critic of Tri-Agency, spoke passionately on the ineffectiveness of Tri-Agency. “It does nothing but squander money. The JPA must go,” she exclaimed.

The Board of Supervisors balked at the inserted off-shore wind development paragraph and wanted it removed. In the interim, the controversial 5.05(e) paragraph festered in the offshore wind.

Nobody blinked and nobody budged.

Agency, 2:17 hours elapsed into the evening. Confusion abounded on how to proceed among the cumbersome process of dismantling Tri-Agency. County Counsel was continually consulted for clarification on parliamentary rules.

deliver infrastructure that supports safety, reliability and mobility needs in our community.”

Yurok Tribal Council

Member Ryan Ray who cut the ribbon and offered a blessing, lauded the Project and it’s partners, “ The new bridges honor our teamwork and protect culturally vital species such as the Coho salmon.”

Del Norte Supervisors, Chairman Dean Wilson, Valerie Starkey and Chris Howard were on hand to celebrate the completion of the Project.

The County asked for the return of its funds, followed by the return of City and Harbors allocations, respectively. Tri-Agency quickly moved from critical to grave condition. Supervisor Starkey addressed the group, “ We’re at an impasse. We need to move on.” Mayor Inscore noted the palpable futility to save Tri-Agency but could not muster a second for his motion to disband Tri-Agency from fellow councilors Schellong or Greenough. The absence of a second compelled the City to re-address the inevitable and agree to also opt out and pay its share of the expenses at its June 18th meeting.

As the efforts to salvage Tri-Agency proceeded through the modest twoitem agenda to change the language or disband the

During Public Comments, constituent Kevin Hendrick tossed in a lifeline salvo amendment into the pot, declaring off-shore wind energy would not be part of the foundational document(s) without concurrent support of all Tri-Agency members. Hendrick’s effort failed to galvanize. It became quite apparent the discussion of off-shore wind power was not the primary reason for Tri-Agency discontent.

The Public’s distrust of this JPA was the glaring issue.

Here was the opportunity to satisfy the County demand and remove the onerous language off-shore energy language but the salvo was not being embraced….neither Borges’disdain for equal equity, Starkey’s “impasse” claim, nor Wilson’s opinion of the Authority’s past failures, could be swayed.

Public distrust of the Tri-Agency JPA was the elephant in the room.

Schellong referenced what she called a sad situation the three agencies could not come together to “ …to fight for our kids. Less than 10 people (here tonight) is not the will of the people.” Schellong neglected to men-

tion the near standing-room only audience at the Veterans Hall in May of 2023, expressing overwhelming opposition to the re-organization of the Tri-Agency Authority. Despite this opposition, the City, Harbor and the County moved forward to resurrect a fully-funded Tri-Agency, essentially ignoring public disapproval and recognition of the past failures of the Authority.

Harbor Commissioner Wes White rejected the language amendment suggestion. Stone bemoaned, “ The Harbor has no money,” reflecting on its current dire debt revelation in the wake of recent lawsuit and accumulated legal costs. With evident disappointment, the Harbor took two bites of the apple to withdraw from Tri-Agency: the first effort was knotted at 2-2, the second vote was 3-1(Shepherd dissenting) to disconnect life support to Tri-Agency. The die was cast…Tri-Agency was heading to the graveyard.

The Board of Supervisors voted 4-1 to withdraw. Borges shared $110,000 is too small an investment to make any difference” in developing our economy.” Borges voted YES to withdraw from Tri-Agency.

Short voted NO to withdraw from Tri Agency despite his stated staunch allegiance to local commercial and sport fishermen who strongly opposed the development of off-shore

The City followed its two former member agencies and terminated its membership in the JPA at its recent meeting. Aftermath: With no exception, each of the elected stated unequivocally and individually spoke in support economic development.

Chairman Dean Wilson plans to place on a July agenda, the creation of an Ad Hoc Economic Committee to reach out to the Harbor and City and include Tribal partners and State and National Parks who, in the words of Wilson, “ Economic development is essential and absolutely vital to growth in Del Norte. Tri-Agency may be gone but economic development is in our Strategic Plan. The Board will discuss Comprehensive Economic Growth including input from the Tribes, National and State Parks and the Public. We will include multiple partners.” Dead, the Tri-Agency JPA may now RIP. “The need for economic development is vibrant and alive,” stated Wilson.

JPA Counsel Robert Black addressed the members stating an estimated $11,000 to $15,000 in unpaid bills remained. The three agencies agreed to split the debt, each member paying one third of the outstanding balance… and that was it for the Del Norte Economic Joint Powers Authority., 1976-2024.

termination clause contained in section 8.03 of the Agreement. Inscore’s motion died for a lack of a second. The Harbor and County then passed motions to mutually terminate and equally share the dissolution costs.

The City was left with no option but to disband. Schellong expressed her disappointment in the inability for members to work together. She shared constituents’ disappointment, “ …the three groups just didn’t get it. What we’re letting go, we just

don’t understand, is a very powerful that could have been used (for economic development) I represent those who shared their comments with me.”

Greenough defended the necessity to have one voice for economic development.

“ I think it is a shame that the three largest agencies could not work together for economic development. We got caught in the weeds, we must come together,” said Greenough. The door is now closed on the Tri-Agency Joint Powers Authority.

The purpose of the project is maximize pasture irrigation during the late spring and summer during traditionally dry periods on the coast to allow the harvest of winter feeds (silage and grass hay) and grazing by: (1) replacing a functionally obsolete water diversion with a new structure that meets current NMFS standards and regulations and (2) conveying the water by means of a new underground pipeline, minimizing evaporation and groundwater penetration which previously occurred through an open conveyance ditch. The 4,500-foot-long underground water supply will irrigate the Ranch’s approximately 355 acres, which makes up APN 103-020-074 from May 1st through September 31st annually.

More fully described in said Deed of Trust.

NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE

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 this 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 (866)-960-8299 or visit this Internet Web site https://www.altisource.com/ loginpage.aspx using the file number assigned to this case 2023-02075-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

SALE

NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S

NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction, if conducted after January 1, 2021, pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (866)-960-8299, or visit this internet website https://www.altisource.com/loginpage.aspx, using the file number assigned to this case 202302075-CA to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid, by remitting the funds and affidavit described in Section 2924m(c) of the Civil Code, so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

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 or (888) 902-3989 or visit these internet websites or www.nestortrustee. com, using the file number assigned to this case 202408781-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANTS: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed

the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (888) 902-3989 or visit these internet websites or www. nestortrustee.com, using the file number assigned to this case 2024-08781-CA to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

Constituents Beware

BRANDEN BIEBER CRESCENT CITY

Voters are being poled this November in what has become a continuous cycle of political dysfunction. While voting will conclude in 5 months, the results will likely have NO impact in leadership or policy. Considering the National Presidential Election is offering two geriatrics embedded in controversy. Regardless who wins, America’s next President will likely increase our National discourse and further divide Americans.

At the State level, ballot measures will be ﬁnalized June 27th. Likely to be on the ballot:

● Another Recall attempt of Governor Newsom

● A vote to modify Prop 47 (2014 measure aimed to reduce penalties of many crimes, and lowering prison populations)

● A ballot measure allowing Local Governments the ability to regulate property rent control

● A Vote to decide another increase to the States ascending minimum wage.

As wording on ballot measures are ﬁnalized, voters be cautious! Judges and lawyers have become convoluted in social reform for proﬁt, and makes the distinctions about the consequences and intent of ballot measures obscure.

Inﬂation and crime continue increasing around the Country and are being propelled by Del Norte County policy makers locked in correlation with California’s extreme legislation.

As Governor Newsom’s Administration has taken the State Budget from a surplus to a massive deﬁcit in the past three years, Del Norte County Board of Supervisors continue to endorse the Social Service Sanctuary distinction that Newsom promotes. Shelter, nutrition, wellness, and wrap around

services are not human rights, their privileges. Privileges that have been taken from citizens by Government, but not the responsibility of Government to provide. Yes, American History is riddled with events that promoted Freedom for some, while stealing Freedom from others.

The purpose and illusion of Freedom is worth the pursuit. Without the concept of Freedom we become impartial with limited opportunities and personal wellness dependent on others. With Freedom (and manageable taxes) a society realizes the importance of accomplishing tasks, promotes innovation, cultural advancement, and makes possibilities endless.

While progress is postponed for political power, do more than vote. Get involved! Contact your representatives and express your thoughts.

Tell them what’s good, what’s bad, and stay persistent. Your engagement is more inﬂuential than your vote.
