‘Unhinged’ Kudos Editor: The June 2 edition of the North Coast Journal is dynamite, from Mark McKenna’s cover photo and others inside to Thadeus Greenson’s very informative and very necessary editorial, “Why Brett Watson Needs to Resign,” Jennifer Fumiko Cahill’s well-worded column, “It Might Be Time to Get Totally Motherfucking Unhinged” and Linda Stansberry’s “Bad Women Like Me.” Linda made her points throughout and concludes, “I am one of the lucky ones to know for certain that I live in a community I can be proud of, a place full of bad women like me.” Jennifer’s column about gun violence needs and deserves the language she uses throughout. National Public Radio recited a poem based on contributions from many listeners. It had a very heart-felt ending: Who will make a home for the heavy hearts, for The sacred ones who can’t stop thinking about those 19 desks, those 19 backpacks

Dave Rosso, Eureka Editor: JFC’s column “… Unhinged …” pretty well describes her frustration with the litany of events crowding the headlines. She did concede that, “Maybe my tone is alienating …” offered with the sincerity of a Brett Watson “apology.” All that said, it’s hard to argue with JFC’s angry diatribe, considering all the thoughts and prayers being sent that seem to be falling on the deaf ears of the divine. I may be tempted to express my exasperation in similar fashion, minus the F-bombs.

Power of Wind Editor: Fossil fuels have led to unsustainable cost volatility, and the current surge in fuel prices continues to impact prosperity, affect consumer pricing and remains a burden, which is difficult for both households and businesses to bear. By 2050, the energy needs of California are expected to more than double. Strategic electrification, and accompanying efforts to decarbonize, will be necessary for halting climate change and for achieving the state’s rigorous and legislated climate goals.

Offshore wind delivers clean power and can be a catalyst for energy independence (NCJ Daily, June 2). Roaming blackouts and safety shutoffs will only worsen. New energy projects such as offshore wind have also proven to be a major economic driver, and can create thousands of jobs, as well as ample financial opportunity for entrepreneurs, local trades and businesses.

Editor: I would like to thank the North Coast Journal for responding to the Acrid Commentary letter to the editor (Mailbox, June 2). It is simply appalling that there is an extremely vocal minority of this population that does not believe in actual facts anymore and would rather use alternative facts, i.e. made up total bullshit. I also want to commend Jennifer Fumiko Cahill for her outrage over gun violence in this country and the inability of Congress to do a damn thing about it. Weapons of war have absolutely no legitimate reason to be sold in this country. The argument that anyone has a “right to bear” these killing machines is ludicrous. They are never used in the hunting of game animals, they are only used to slaughter human beings. No one has that right! Tim Doherty, Kneeland

Truth and Healing Commission Subpoena Authority Becomes Sticking Point By Dustan Heistand/Gaylord News

newsroom@northcoastjournal.com

fforts to create a federal commission to explore the legacy of the nation’s Indian boarding schools has hit a stumbling block. Subpoena authority is triggering warnings in a key House subcommittee as backers hope to advance a bill establishing the Truth and Healing Commission on Indian Boarding Schools. The top Republican on the subcommittee said the bill could lose bi-partisan support. The commission is intended to work parallel to the Department of Interior’s federal Indian Boarding School Initiative, which released its first report one day before the hearing. Rep. Tom Cole, a Republican from Oklahoma, is the top co-sponsor of House Resolution 5444, which was reintroduced by Rep. Sharice Davids, a Kansas Democrat, on the National Day of Remembrance, Sept. 30, 2021. The bill currently has 57 co-sponsors from both sides of the aisle, including fellow Oklahoma Republican Rep. Markwayne Mullin, Cherokee Nation. “Establishing the Truth and Healing Commission on Indian Boarding School Policy will provide an important step toward resolving and healing from one of our nation’s darkest periods,” Cole said when the bill was reintroduced. “This commission will build off Secretary Haaland’s Federal Boarding School Initiative by collecting documents and testimony outside the federal boarding school system,” Davids said.

Cole is a citizen of the Chickasaw Nation, while Davids is a citizen of the Ho-Chunk Nation. The partisan warnings arose when the subcommittee held a hearing on May 12 to provide witness testimony to address the federally funded policies and assimilation of Native American people and culture by the United States. The hearing centered on testimony from Native people who survived Native boarding schools, or are descendants of those who attended the schools. Ben Barnes, Shawnee Tribe chief and a descendant of Native boarding school survivors, told the committee the importance of the would-be commission is incalculable. “As time continues to pass, we will lose the testimonies of survivors and more documents will become misplaced,” Barnes said in his testimony. “That is the importance of H.R. 5444. Creating a mandated commission empowered to locate every available record and ensure this history is preserved and made available for examination.” While bipartisan support exists for an investigation into the individual impact of the policies and assimilation of Native Americans, a lack of agreement exists among supporters of the bill as to the methods and powers available to investigators. The legislation currently includes subpoena authority to obtain the testimony of witnesses and the production

of evidence. Acting Ranking Republican Member of the subcommittee Rep. Jay Obernolte, a California Republican, believes the inclusion of subpoena authority is a reason for hesitancy. “So subpoena authority, while it might serve the goal of truth, might be adversarial to the goal of healing,” Obernolte said prior to witness testimony. “And I think that we should have that discussion because I am not sure that serves the purpose of the commission.” Since 1989, a total of 160 congressional commissions have been established. Of those, only 12 possess subpoena authority. Deborah Parker, National Native American Boarding School Healing Coalition CEO and a citizen of the Tulalip Tribes, said subpoena power is needed. “It’s absolutely necessary,” Parker said. “It’s why we worked with this bill to make sure that this information comes to the boarding school survivors and their families, and tribal nations and organizations who work for the healing and the truth of the Indian boarding school experience.” Despite hearing Parker’s explanation as to why subpoena authority was necessary, Obernolte continued to voice his concern about the bill granting subpoena authority, doubling down that the use of subpoenas would cause the

process to become “adversarial.” Both Cole and Davids have emphasized that the purpose of the bill is not to elicit an adversarial response. Instead, both stress that the purpose is to provide answers for the individuals, families and communities impacted by federally funded Native boarding schools. “There are people that don’t like the stories, and they’re not going to want to willingly share,” Barnes said in an interview following his testimony. “And that subpoena power helps grease the wheels and helps get that information where it needs to be, so those tribal communities can discover the truth of what happened to our kids.” As the question over subpoena authority continues to develop into a partisan issue, Barnes remains hopeful the bill will be passed during the current congressional session. “I don’t want to wait one more year, one more week, not one more day,” said Barnes. “I think the time to insist upon the answers is now. So, I have to believe this is the time, this is the one, this is the year.” ● Gaylord News is a reporting project of the University of Oklahoma Gaylord College of Journalism and Mass Communication.

California’s Climate Crisis Plan Flawed, Advisors Say

s California races to prevent the irreversible effects of climate change, some experts are questioning key policies that the state is counting on to meet its ambitious goals and accusing state officials of failing to provide substantial details to back up its claims. The California Air Resources Board’s proposal, called a scoping plan, outlines policies that would transition the economy away from fossil fuels. The purpose of the plan is to fulfill state mandates to reduce planet-warming emissions 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2045. In this year’s highly-anticipated climate policy blueprint, some critics say the state agency has not been transparent on how it plans to achieve its goals. The process has left legislators and others at the forefront of the climate discussion confused over the air board staff’s projections. “The draft scoping plan does California a disservice,” said Danny Cullenward, an economist and vice chair of the Independent Emissions Market Advisory Committee, a group of five experts appointed by the governor and top legislators to assess

the effectiveness of the state’s landmark cap and trade program. “It focuses on long-term goals at the expense of nearterm action.” At two recent state committee meetings, environmentalists, academics and climate policy experts who serve on state advisory panels voiced concerns over California’s approach to tackling the climate crisis. They called the plan incomplete, ambiguous and confusing. In addition, in a letter sent June 2 to the Air Resources Board and Gov. Gavin Newsom, 73 environmental justice groups called the proposed scoping plan “a setback for the state and the world.” “It fails to accelerate our 2030 and 2045 climate targets, and it fails to increase the pace of California’s actions beyond existing commitments,” the letter says. “We need a plan that transitions us away from the extractive, fossil-fueled energy system at the pace and scale demanded by climate science and environmental justice.” The Air Resources Board did not send representatives to speak at either of the two meetings — a joint Senate and Assembly committee hearing and the emissions trading advisory committee.

But in a response to questions from CalMatters, air quality officials said the plan is a “guidance document” and that specific emissions reductions would be detailed when individual regulations are drafted. “It is not a final document, nor intended to be. It is also not a regulation. It is a guidance document and as such leaves room for new information that

ber Natalie Arroyo ended the night clinging to the 50-percent threshold that would allow her to avoid a November runoff election. She currently has 50.21 percent of the 2,354 votes counted thus far, but her lead shrank throughout the night, and she seems likely headed into a November runoff with Mike Newman, who finished the night with 35 percent of the vote. The race to become Humboldt County’s next clerk-recorder and registrar of voters, meanwhile, seems certain to be headed for a November finish. Tiffany Hunt Nielsen closed election night with 46 percent of the vote, trailed by Juan Pablo Cervantes with 41 percent and Benjamin Hershberger with 13 percent. Unless Nielsen sees a surge in the ballots yet to be counted that pushes her past 50 percent, she and Cervantes will square off in a November runoff.

When Eads takes office, she’ll see a familiar — if new — face on the bench, as Deputy District Attorney Steven Steward took 57 percent of the vote to win the judicial seat being vacated by Judge Christopher Wilson’s retirement. Elsewhere, incumbent Fifth District Supervisor Steve Madrone, who narrowly won election four years ago in a race that wasn’t finally decided until weeks after Election Day, cruised to another term in office, taking 61 percent of the vote to challenger Larry Doss’ 39 percent.

MEASURE

hen the dust settled from an Election Night short on drama and long on waits, it left a handful of candidates looking to take office with what can fairly be described as voter mandates. The county’s final election night report posted shortly before 1 a.m. and included 14,844 ballots counted, equaling about 17 percent of registered voters, indicating either a very low turnout or a lot of ballots yet to be counted, or perhaps both. As the Journal went to press, it was unclear exactly how many votes remained to be counted countywide, leaving some races hanging in the balance. Others, however, seem safe to call. On a night of big wins, none was bigger than challenger Cheryl Dillingham’s victory in the highly contentious auditor-controller race. Leading big from the first report on, Dillingham closed the night with 70 percent of the vote to unseat embattled incumbent Karen Paz Dominguez. Dillingham, a former 30-year county employee and the current finance director for the city of Rio Dell who campaigned on a platform of competence and professionalism, will soon take over an office that has been mired in controversy and discord for years, culminating in state and county lawsuits accusing Paz Dominguez of failing in her duties. It certainly appears Dillingham will have her work cut out for her in clearing a backlog of delinquent financial reporting in the office, but Paz Dominguez indicated during the campaign that if she lost the race she would do everything possible to oversee a smooth transition. In other races, Deputy District Attorney Stacey Eads seems poised to become Humboldt County’s second female district attorney, taking over for her mentor Maggie Fleming, who decided not to seek re-election after two terms in

Bombshell

At the 11th hour, the Humboldt County Civil Grand jury waded into the auditorcontroller race By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

n an unprecedented move, the Humboldt County Civil Grand Jury interjected itself directly into the county’s auditor-controller race less than a week before Election Day. On June 2, the Humboldt County Civil Grand Jury poured gasoline on what was already considered the county’s most contentious political race, issuing a scathing report stating incumbent Auditor-Controller Karen Paz Dominguez’s office’s failure to file timely state and federal reports has already caused the county to lose more than $2.3 million in “non-recoverable funds,” while placing more than $9.7 million in funding at “significant risk.” The move of releasing such a report mere days before its subject is up for re-election drew immediately questions, prompting the Grand Jury foreperson to issue a follow-up press release June 3 clarifying that the report is the result of months of interviews and “exhaustive research,” and was simply released when done and approved, with the Grand Jury’s actions and decision making at no point “informed by politics.” In response, acting in her official capacity as auditor-controller but with her campaign videographer set up before her on the courthouse steps (his computer plugged into the generator powering the speaker at her lectern), Paz Dominguez held an hour-long press conference the afternoon of June 3, answering “any and all” questions, including some about how voters should view the report. She issued a full-throated denial of essentially all aspects of the report critical of her office, saying she is aware of no funds lost by the county due to delinquent financial reports, and that if any funds have been lost, there would be subsequent opportu-

nities for seeking reimbursement. As Paz Dominguez spoke, flanked by the county’s assistant auditor-controller, First District Supervisor Rex Bohn, with whom Paz Dominguez has repeatedly butted heads over the years through a series of cross allegations, sat on the courthouse steps looking on. Immediately after Paz Dominguez finished the press conference, a process server officially served her with the county’s cross complaint civil lawsuit, which the board directed county counsel to file May 10, while also directing the county’s lawyer not to defend Paz Dominguez in a lawsuit brought by the California Attorney General against both her and the county over delinquent fiscal report filings with the state. (The county’s cross-complaint makes the same allegations as the state, while also accusing Paz Dominguez of having misappropriated public funds when she paid a consultant for coaching services, allegedly sidestepping the county’s contract process.) It’s impossible to know to what degree the bombshell report may have swayed the election, which saw voters overwhelmingly cast their ballots in favor of Paz Dominguez’s challenger, Rio Dell Finance Director Cheryl Dillingham, according to preliminary election night results. But the report and

Paz Dominguez being served with the county’s civil lawsuit just as she finished attempting to refute the Grand Jury’s work seemed to provide further evidence the proverbial walls were closing in on the embattled auditor-controller, who had already faced a no-confidence vote and censure from the board, a letter from 13 of the county’s 19 department heads charging that she has “failed” to fulfill her duties and the unprecedented state lawsuit. (State Controller Press Secretary Jennifer Hanson told the Journal her office has found “no record” of it previously having to file a lawsuit against an auditor-controller to force compliance with fiscal reporting mandates.) As the dust settles from Election Day, we take a look at the report and Paz Dominguez’s response.

The Report

Grand Jury Foreperson Jim Glover described the investigative report as one of the most “exhaustive” in “recent years,” saying it follows “dozens of hours of interviews and inquiries.” Titled “Distrust, Disagreements, Dysfunction,” the report looks at the county’s notoriously troubled fiscal operations, finding that while Paz Dominguez stepped into an office rife with challenges and inadequacies, her office’s poor communication and interde-

partmental distrust have marred her tenure, leading directly to missed reporting deadlines and the loss of county, school district and city funds. Exacerbating and enabling these issues, the Grand Jury found, the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors failed to intervene in a timely manner to find solutions and effectively exercise its supervisory duties. “County departments and the board are at continual loggerheads with the auditor-controller because of ineffective communication and procedural changes,” the report states. “No consensus has been reached to resolve these issues. County services are in jeopardy due to overall financial dysfunction exacerbated by a breakdown of interdepartmental trust and communication on the part of the auditor-controller.” The report makes clear there are deep rooted issues within Humboldt County’s fiscal systems and points to some significant improvements made, but repeatedly identifies instances in which “deficiencies in the performance of the auditor-controller” have worsened those issues, leading to missed reporting deadlines and errors that cost the county and other local government entities hundreds of thousands of dollars.

More specifically, the report states the Grand Jury received “verifiable information” that the county has “permanently lost” funds from a variety of federal and state reimbursements and grants due to its outstanding and now long overdue 2019-2020 fiscal year single audit. Additionally, the report states the county has paid penalties and fees to the IRS for late payroll tax reports and payments, lost interest apportionments and credit card late fees, noting the county employees’ credit card account was at one point suspended when payment was 96 days overdue. Additionally, local school districts and other entities have been impacted, according to the report. It alleges that due to auditor-controller errors, the Fortuna Union High School District suffered a cash shortage of nearly $200,000, forcing it to obtain supplemental bond funding. Another alleged error by the Auditor-Controller’s Office resulted in the Fortuna district, College of the Redwoods and the Humboldt County Office of Education being collectively underpaid $475,304, while alleged “regular delays” in the Auditor-Controller Office’s transferring funds from treasury accounts to school and special districts “have put payrolls at risk.” Further, the report alleges that delinquent Single Audits, Financial Transaction Reports and Cost Allocation Plans have put $9.7 million in state and federal funds at risk for things like grants for housing residents with disabilities, rural health clinics, workforce development, Mental Health Services Act funding, transportation project funding and future interest related to payroll. And while Paz Dominguez has repeatedly argued the fiscal reports are primarily delinquent due to other departments’ failures to get hers the documentation needed to complete them, the report lays much of the blame squarely at her feet. Specifically, the report alleges poor communication from the Aauditor-Controller’s Office is responsible for much of the trouble, saying Paz Dominguez stopped taking phone calls from other department heads and county fiscal staff, instead insisting they contact her through a departmentwide email inbox, which many came to regard as a “black hole” as inquiries would often go unreturned for months at a time. Further exacerbating communications issues, according to the report, is that Paz Dominguez would also make seemingly abrupt changes to policy and requirements, resulting in some departments’ invoices and other documentation being rejected. Additionally, the report notes the new policies weren’t always implemented

While the office faces formidable historic and systemic challenges — chronic understaffing and antiquated systems like county employees still using paper timecards — those have been further complicated by communication breakdowns and a lack of trust, the report found. And nowhere has this been clearer, the report states, than with the County Administrative Office and the County Tax Collector, entities the Auditor-Controller’s Office needs to work well with to function, with the CAO having oversight of other county departments and the tax collector and auditor-controller needing to collaborate to perform regular cash reconciliations.

An Alarming and Unusual Disclosure The report also begins with a potentially alarming disclosure, noting it made an “informal inquiry into allegations of willful misconduct by the auditor-controller” and, late in its investigation as this report was approaching completion, found “sufficient information that would require” it to conduct a formal investigation of those allegations. The Grand Jury will continue that line of inquiry, the report notes, and “can consider its legal options, up to and including an accusation.” The accusation referenced would fall under California Government Sections 3060 through 3075, which provide that a civil grand jury can file a formal accusation of “willful or corrupt misconduct” against an elected official and seek their removal from office. Such an accusation would be delivered to the district attorney and, if the elected official denies the misconduct alleged, tried in superior court before a jury, “conducted in all respects in the same manner” as a criminal case, with a conviction resulting in the official’s removal from office. It’s unclear exactly what the Grand Jury

is looking into but it could be the auditor-controller’s having hired the Fortuna firm Edge Caliber as a consultant to provide coaching services to its employees. In its lawsuit, the county alleges Paz Dominguez misappropriated public funds, paying the firm $16,851 without a contract that had gone through the full approval process in place. Further, the county alleges, Paz Dominguez had a “financial interest” in the contract as she was seeking an endorsement from the Humboldt County Central Democratic Committee, of which Edge Caliber’s owner is a voting member. (Conflict of interest experts previously interviewed by the Journal disputed this interpretation, saying they didn’t believe Paz Dominguez had a legal conflict of interest, though they said the no-bid contract created “bad optics” and did not follow best practices.) Paz Dominguez has said everything about the agreement for coaching services was above board, with county counsel involved and numerous fiscal controls in place. During her June 3 press conference, Paz Dominguez indicated she’d planned on presenting to the board of supervisors on June 7 about the coaching services Edge Caliber provided her office but the item did not make it on the board’s agenda. Clerk of the Board Kathy Hayes told the Journal the matter was not approved for the meeting agenda because it is the subject of “current litigation.” An accusation from the Grand Jury would constitute an incredibly rare action. And mention of such an inquiry by the Civil Grand Jury — whose investigations and and processes are legally shrouded in secrecy — is in and of itself extraordinary.

Paz Dominguez’s Response

The auditor-controller was unequivocal in disputing the report’s findings, saying she “has seen no evidence” the county has lost any funds and that if anything has been lost, it can likely be reimbursed. Further, she asserted there is no proof that hundreds of thousands of dollars in late fees and penalties lost are unrecoverable, and definitely no evidence that an additional close to $10 million is at risk. She classified much of the report’s contents as “hearsay,” saying they are the same talking points that have been repeated frequently by some members of the board of supervisors and appointed officials who have long pushed back against the Auditor-Controller’s Office asserting its independent authority. “What I will say is a report is only as good as the information provided to its authors,” Paz Dominguez said, arguing grand jurors seem to have only inter-

viewed the same people who have been vocal in warning of lost funds and laying the blame for blown deadlines at her office’s feet. Asked during the press conference why so many have pointed blame at her office — the board of supervisors, the Fortuna Union High School District, 13 of the county’s 19 department heads, the state lawsuit and now the Grand Jury — Paz Dominguez said the answers are different for each. Some, she said, probably think they are doing the right thing but have been lied to, explaining, “I hate to say it, but if you repeat a lie 13 times, some people are going to believe it.” Others, she said, are motivated by vendetta. Paz Dominguez charged that her office is making constant improvements. It is functioning better than ever before, leading to improved morale and performance, she said, adding that payroll, “torn and tattered” when it was returned to her office, is now running smoothly. The failure to close books for previous fiscal years in a timely manner, she said, is partly the product of not wanting to harm special districts, schools and county departments, saying arbitrarily closing the books before receiving all appropriate documentation could impact their funding. Paz Dominguez released a host of documents — mostly select email exchanges — that she said constitute evidence refuting the Grand Jury’s conclusions. While the emails seem to detail instances in which Paz Dominguez explained coming changes to various fiscal reporting policies and worked with other departments to implement them, as well as occasions when her department helped its counterparts solve problems, they do not in and of themselves paint a comprehensive picture. At the press conference, Paz Dominguez said the biggest challenge facing her office is staffing level and other departments and outside entities failing to get it the timely documentation needed to perform its various functions. Among the few findings in the Grand Jury report Paz Dominguez indicated she agreed with were ones stating the board of supervisors should have done more to intervene and reconcile differences between hers and other departments, and that the county administrative officer should make sure all other departments timely file the documentation she needs to meet financial reporting deadlines. “That’s perhaps the most important one,” Paz Dominquez said of the CAO. Paz Dominguez also said she was only interviewed once by the Grand Jury at the

investigation’s start in August, then had a follow-up meeting May 26 after the report was complete.

A Rocky Rollout

It seems clear something was amiss in the Grand Jury’s rollout of this report. According to numerous sources, including Paz Dominguez, the Grand Jury had informed some county officials last week that the report would be distributed to local media at noon June 3 and provided them an advance copy for review, prompting Paz Dominguez to send out an invitation Wednesday night to a press conference scheduled for 2 p.m. at the Humboldt County Courthouse called “in anticipation of a pending headline event.” But the report was then posted to the Humboldt County Civil Grand Jury’s website sometime early June 2. Asked about the report that afternoon, Paz Dominguez said she was directed not to discuss it until the grand jury’s anticipated release time of noon June 3, though she said she was “aware the [County Administrative Office] published it early.” Asked how she knew it was the CAO that published the report “early,” Paz Dominguez said she knew because the “grand jury just told” her, saying she was told the “webmaster posted the report early” before noting the county’s IT department falls within the CAO’s office. The Journal then inquired with the CAO’s office, which said it was unaware of any instructions regarding the posting of the report. The Journal then obtained the Grand Jury’s email request to IT. Sent from Glover to the county webmaster email at 6:46 a.m. June 2, the request, in its entirety, reads as follows: “Good Morning! Please post the attached report to the Grand Jury Reports listing on our webpage. The title of this report is: Distrust, Disagreements, Dysfunction. Thank you, Jim Glover, Foreperson.” No further direction — or embargoed release date and time — seems to have been provided. It’s also worth noting that the 2017-2018 Civil Grand Jury announced a new policy governing its release of reports in June election years under which no reports would be released from the second Monday of February until after Election Day. Contacted about the policy, Glover told the Journal that was “of great to concern to us many months ago” but the county has a different presiding judge now and is producing reports whenever they are cleared for release without restriction. (It was Judge Joyce Hinrichs then, and Judge Greg Elvine-Kreis has since taken over the role. Elvine-Kreis told the Journal

the report was reviewed by Judge Kelly Neel, who informed Glover she would not be following the previous “informal” policy regarding release of reports around Election Day and would instead review the report for approval as soon as it was submitted.) “That might change in the future with yet a different judge,” Glover wrote, “but those are the guidelines we are operating under presently.”

The Grand Jury’s Methodology

According to its website, the 20212022 Humboldt County Civil Grand Jury comprises 18 members. According to prior Journal coverage, when the Grand Jury convenes each year, it splits into a halfdozen or so committees in varying subject areas, and then sifts through complaints and requirements to determine what inquiries and investigations will be undertaken. The report notes the underlying investigation in this case was launched after the Grand Jury received “complaints of financial inefficiencies, ineffective communication and a lack of cooperation with various governmental entities on the part of the Auditor-Controller and the Auditor-Controller’s Office. (The Journal first reported the existence of the investigation in November of 2021, after Fortuna Union High School District Superintendent Glen Senestraro told his Board of Trustees the Grand Jury was looking into allegations of “deficiencies” and “poor service” after the board voted in September to send in an official complaint.) According to the report, the Grand Jury’s investigation included interviews with “complainants,” elected county officials, county department heads and county fiscal managers. Additionally, the Grand Jury states it reviewed documents provided by witnesses, including emails and financial reports, pertinent state and federal statutes, prior financial reports and correspondences from the state Controller’s Office, Attorney General’s Office and Department of Finances. Additionally, the report states the Grand Jury reviewed board of supervisors’ meetings and “conducted internet research related to generally accepted accounting principles.” According to past Journal reporting, a Grand Jury committee’s report undergoes three layers of review before it is released. First, the Humboldt County counsel looks it over to assess liability concerns — not for the county as a whole but for the jury itself. Then, the Humboldt County Superior Court’s presiding judge is supposed to give it another review through the same lens or

delegate the task to another judge. With the legal feedback in hand, the report then comes back to the full Grand Jury for review and a vote on whether to publish it, with 12 votes needed to move forward with releasing a report publicly. In his email to the media announcing release of the report, Glover noted that “due to the complexity of this report,” the report took longer to complete than most. “It is the practice of any Grand Jury for reports to be released as soon as they are completed and authorized by the court, thus today’s release,” he concluded in the June 2 news release.

Unprecedented

The scathing Grand Jury report included ominous mention of an ongoing investigation is the latest domino to fall in what has become a simply unprecedented situation, even in Humboldt County’s history of contentious and dysfunctional politics. The Grand Jury has joined a chorus that now includes the California offices of the Attorney General and State Controller, the board of supervisors and the vast majority

of county department heads in saying Paz Dominguez is failing to meet the duties voters entrusted her with four years ago. Paz Dominguez, meanwhile, remains unflinching in her own defense, insistent her office is doing its best with limited resources and the true blame for missed reporting deadlines lies with recalcitrant county officials who — after years of operating with impunity while her predecessors provided a rubber stamp — refuse to recognize her office’s newly actualized role as a fiscal watchdog. With the politics of campaign season behind us, at least for the time being, there’s no escaping the reality that Humboldt County is in unprecedented fiscal territory. The full ramifications of that on both our politics and local programs, however, likely won’t be clear for months, if not years. l

Back Together for Lao New Year By Jennifer Fumiko Cahill jennifer@northcoastjournal.com

here’s a bit of a traffic jam at the wide doorway to the Humboldt Grange kitchen as men with traditional Lao checked sashes stop to talk — some on their way in to sample the buffet of home-cooked Lao dishes, others carrying full plates. A handful of women, some in bright silk sinh dresses, shift aluminum trays of tart laap salads, crispy fish heads and fried noodles, as children maneuver tongs against stacks of egg rolls and chase slippery coconut jellies with a serving spoon. After two years of forgoing the annual gathering due to COVID-19, Humboldt’s Lao community finally came back together on Saturday, June 4, to celebrate the New Year. While the April celebration is typically held in May in our county owing to the busy schedule of the nine Santa Rosa-based Buddhist monks who preside over the event, this year it came a bit later but, after the hiatus, a couple of weeks hardly seemed to matter. A grin takes up Danny Sisombath’s whole face as he tips his head up to watch

the Humboldt County Lao Dancers perform — his daughter Leilani among them — their hand movements telling stories with the music. Like many Lao refugees, he came to the U.S. in the 1980s, later settling in Humboldt and opening the Lao Oriental Market in Henderson Center in 1995. He took on the rotating organizational chairperson role this year, though he stresses that all of the core 20 or so people who put on the event, along with other volunteers, are all equals. He says he’s happy to finally have the celebration, which is open to everyone, back at the grange. Sisombath says people were afraid to gather, even after some restrictions lifted, and hesitant to plan a big gathering amid the uncertainty. It was frustrating. “I felt like, ‘COVID, come on. Go away.’ I’m so happy today I can have a party.” It’s also a spiritual duty. “Because we believe in Buddha, we have to follow,” he says. Some give their time and labor to make it happen, others donations of money and supplies. The night before, Sisombath’s wife,

Kahmphouth, braving the grange kitchen in a white lace dress, packs up fish for someone at the back counter. “Did you eat? Please eat,” she offers waving lightly at the buffet. Ben Khounsinavong carries a short rattan table — a katoke — crowded with a little of everything. “Food for the Buddha,” he says, explaining how the monks bless and eat the offerings. He has been coming every year the New Year celebration has been held, since the 1990s. “This is good. This is what makes me feel good,” he says. “Everybody here is like family.” Tiffany Fahomkio stacks up to-go containers of nam kao, tangy fried rice with a mint and few sharp-looking chiles tossed on top.

Still, it was a relief to have the New Year event back, even if she herself was unable to attend due to COVID exposure. “Honestly, there was just no New Year celebration, at least not here.” Mannorind, who lost her mother in October of 2020, says her family was able to hold a very small funeral under county guidelines and still made food offerings for her on special occasions. But at the New Year celebration at the grange, families line up with their om, pedestal bowls filled with favorite foods and rice for loved ones. To see them all together, talking and shuffling forward for their turn, is to see at once the individuality and universality of loss, the restorative power of caring for one another even in death, and the broader family of a shared community. “Normally, personal households will do their own practices and praying,” says Mannorind. But the community Lao New Year is special, “It means getting together for … prosperity, blessings. It’s disappointing to miss, especially in a time when people needed each other.” ●

his week, I’m turning my focus to a problem that most gardeners are dealing with this month, thanks to the intermittent rain/ sun/rain/warmth/rain/wind we’ve had over the past two months. You may have noticed that you have to mow the grass more often right now, but it’s not just the grass that’s growing like, well, a weed. It’s weeds growing like weeds. But what is a weed? According to A.A. Milne, “Weeds are flowers too, once you get to know them.” While researching this article, I did a quick online search for weeds — please note to make the word plural because even if you type “Humboldt County weeds,” you still get a few results about our best known plant. The majority of non-cannabis-related websites talked about eradication, which is kind of a bummer. Not all weeds are bad. One of the most maligned “weeds,” of course, is the dandelion, especially if it has the nerve to grow in your manicured lawn. But let’s take a closer look at this prolific so-called weed. It may surprise you to learn that all parts of the dandelion are edible. The leaves are most often eaten, in salads or stir frys. Harvest them when they’re young, before the flowers bloom, as they become more bitter the older they get. The greens are high in vitamins A, B, C, E and K. The flowers are also edible. Pop them in salads or in your scrambled eggs. And let’s not forget wine. Yes, you can make wine out of dandelion flowers. If you do decide

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Jan. 1, 2022 • northcoastjournal.com

to explore the wonderful world of eating dandelions, make sure you harvest from spaces that have not been sprayed with nasty chemicals. Beekeepers are among the few groups who love dandelions dearly because they bloom early and often, and bees love the flowers. In addition, dandelion roots are actually good for your lawn, drawing calcium up from lower depths of the soil, aerating the soil and reducing erosion. So the next time you reach for that bottle of herbicide, consider leaving those cheerful yellow flowers in your lawn. The bees will thank you. Weeds, such as they are, can also tell you a lot about your soil. Do you have a lot of creeping buttercup (Ranunculus repens)? This means your soil is damp — buttercup thrives in swampy areas. Another weed that thrives in damp areas is willow weed, which has strappy leaves and tiny pink flowers along the stalk. It’s quite easy to pull out if you don’t want it to reseed. Perhaps you have a lot of clover in your lawn or flower beds. You may have a nitrogen deficiency in the soil. But fear not! If you leave the clover, it will actually fix nitrogen in the soil, thus feeding the area it’s in. It also draws up trace minerals and, as it decomposes, it will provide those nutrients back to the soil and the grass. It will reseed heartily, so if you don’t want your entire blueberry patch overtaken, you might want to consider moving it to another area. I must also mention that bees love clover, too, turning it into a lovely light colored honey. I could write an entire Journal’s worth

of pages about plants that are considered weeds here in Humboldt, some of which are definitely more pernicious than others. (Bindweed, anyone?) While there are a few weeds I try to keep under control or pull out completely, others are allowed to coexist with the gardens, both at home and at my clients’ places. Before you judge the plant/weed too harshly, find out what it is. Your local nurseryperson will probably be able to ID it for you and there are several Humboldt-specific plant pages on Facebook. Often, folks will post a photo of a plant asking for identification and the avid gardeners, landscapers and nursey plant growers on the pages are more than happy to answer plant ID questions. A couple more plants that are considered weeds here in Humboldt but aren’t as nasty as the evil bindweed are sheep sorrel and self-heal. Sheep sorrel (Rumex acetosella) loves acid soil, so a good way to deal with it is by making the soil more alkaline. Sheep sorrel is also edible. Pick before it blooms. Self-heal (Prunella vulgaris) is a sweet little plant with a purple flower spike that pollinators love. It’s not particularly aggressive, so I let it grow in my garden. Before you reach for the herbicides, get to know the weeds in your garden. You might be surprised to learn they’re not as nasty as you think. Especially if they’re in your lawn. l Julia Graham-Whitt (she/her) is owner and operator of the landscaping business Two Green Thumbs.

Pacific Halibut Takes Center Stage

341 West Harris St., Eureka 707 445-3138

ith the closing of the first part of our salmon season, offshore anglers now have their sights set on Pacific halibut. And since Monday, there’s been a slew of them coming over the rails for both the Eureka and Trinidad fleets. The Eureka boats have had a little tougher go on account of the abundance of black cod lurking on the halibut grounds. In some spots it’s tough to get a bait to the bottom without it being eaten or mangled by the hungry cod. But when you find that spot where your baits can hit the bottom unmolested, it’s been game on. Trinidad has been producing limits for the charters and private boats since salmon season closed. Most of the fish are coming straight out of the harbor in 250 to 300 feet of water. No monsters have been reported yet, with the average size right around 20 to 30 pounds. With fishable water in the forecast through at least Saturday, now’s the time to get in on the action.

Weekend marine forecast Ocean conditions look plenty fishable through Saturday. Friday, winds will be from the northwest to 5 knots with west waves 6 feet at 10 seconds. Saturday’s forecast is calling for northwest winds 5 to 10 knots and west swells 5 feet at 10 seconds. On Sunday, north winds will begin to increase and predicted to blow 10 to 15 knots. Waves will be from the northwest 6 feet at five seconds. These conditions can and will change by the weekend. For an up-to-date weather forecast, visit www. weather.gov/eureka/ or www.windy.com. You can also call the National Weather Service at 443-7062 or the office on Woodley Island at 443-6484.

Following a blustery and rainy weekend, boats were back on the water Monday in search of halibut. According to Tim

Klassen of Reel Steel Sport Fishing, there’s a wide area of fish outside of Eureka. “Halibut have been caught from the 42 line north to the 51 line,” said Klassen. “There seems to be a lot of fish out there but the black cod are still making it difficult to keep your bait.

Land of Living People By Collin Yeo

music@northcoastjournal.com

ell, here we are, a few blinks away from the halfway mark of 2022. At least that’s how it seems to me, though I’ve been reckoning time very oddly this year. Things seem to be speeding up while staying in place. Nationally, there’s a sense of acceleration in stagnation, as if the engine is overheating on a mudbound machine. Here in Humboldt, we are the locus for the ongoing problem of economic gentrification. The number of people in my age cohort who have shifted their lamentations from being unable to find an affordable starter home to being unable to afford the mortgage-sized rents is terrifying and doesn’t bode well for the future of this county. I don’t want Humboldt to become like the rest of the state but, unfortunately, the NIMBYs who are parked on the last of the land and wealth from the boom times have a lot more pull. I mention these concerns because a lot of the young people who share them with me are musicians. I speak to a lot of musicians. And let me tell you, when the musicians can’t afford the rent, it messes with my beat, too. And things get lousy real quick-like. There’s a reason why San Francisco, for instance, doesn’t have the same vibrant and youthful music scene it once had, and it isn’t because the kids aren’t creative these days. We need affordable housing because beyond being a human right, it’s also a tremendous boon to our art and music scene.

W.I.T.C.H. plays Richards’ Goat Tavern and Tea Room on Sunday, June 12 at 8 p.m. Photo courtesy of Space Agency Booking The saddest place in the universe is the giant room where all the art that could have been but wasn’t, due to economic strains and poverty, decays in permanent obscurity. Ours is a land of living people, rich in community in a way that is incalculable, but it can so easily become just a wayside stopping point for tourism, vacation homes and the idle rich. Let’s all lend a hand to make a brighter future here, eh? Cheers.

Thursday

It’s the season of nice weather, which means that you can expect music on Thursdays in Pierson Park. Sturdy and reliable, nuts-and-bolts, surf-tinged rock act Band O Loko are your groove ambassadors this evening, beginning at 6 p.m. No entrance money needed at the public park.

Friday

Canary and the Vamp sure has been out and about a lot lately, poking its head out of the necessary slumber of the last two years. And with the addition of Aleister Paige on pedal steel, the sound has never been better. Come see for yourself tonight at the Siren’s Song at 8 p.m. (free). Idle Spurs, that country and blues trio that we all love, is also on the bill.

Saturday

Philly noise pop act Empath is playing at the Miniplex tonight, presumably

touring in support of its latest release Visitor on Fat Possum Records, Visitor at 8:30 p.m. ($15, $12 advance). The album’s tune “Born 100 Times” is a pretty good example of what kind of shenanigans the group is up to. If you like bands like Deerhoof and Modest Mouse, you’ll probably dig these folks. Local synth wunderkind Hudson Glover provides support.

Sunday

Humboldt Hot Air has teamed up with Richard’s Goat to present a very special show tonight at the Arcata Playhouse at 8 p.m. ($30). W.I.T.C.H. (We Intend to Cause Havoc) was a very popular band in its home country of Zambia in the 1970s, blending the prevailing hard rock sounds of the era with more traditional Zambian music for a unique and popular sound. Now, decades later and thanks to a resurgence of interest based on a series of record reissues, frontman Jagari Chanda has resurrected the act with a new lineup. Also sharing the stage is Swiss sextet L’éclair, whose jammy grooves evoke the long-lost and beloved sounds of classic krautrock from yesteryear

Monday

As so happens during this time of the year, when school’s out and many of the county’s non-permanent population is elsewhere enjoying the fleeting promises of a youthful summer, there’s not too much going on tonight. That’s OK; enjoy

your Monday some other way. Might I suggest a screening of Edgar Wright’s excellent 2021 documentary The Sparks Brothers? It’s about one of the greatest bands the state of California has ever produced. Nothing wrong with a little feel-good music.

Tuesday

It’s another edition of Terrapin Tuesday at the Siren’s Song Tavern. At 8 p.m., a group of like-minded musicians gather to flesh out a jam that’s 100 percent dedicated to the music of The Grateful Dead. If that’s of interest to you, you now know the where and the when, and as far as I know, the entrance is free.

Wednesday

New Zealander Dion Lunadon is known for majorly rocking out in a variety of bands, most famously The D4 in his native land as well as New York City’s space-rock revivalists A Place to Bury Strangers. Tonight he brings his solo act to the Miniplex, where I expect he’ll be performing a celebration of the high energy, far-out side of underground rock music at 8 p.m. ($12). Should be a great show. ● Collin Yeo (he/him) was born too late to own a house and too early to work as an indentured servant on an asteroid mine, but just in time for the golden age of American decay. He lives in Arcata.

ake a look at the accompanying map, which shows the extent of the so-called “Algic” superfamily of Indigenous languages. (Algic from Allegheny + Atlantic.) Most of these belong to the Algonquian family of about 30 languages, all descended from the Proto-Algonquian that was spoken about 3,000 years ago and whose speakers are now found from the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic Ocean. However, two Algic languages are located far to the west of the main branch, right here in Humboldt County: Yurok and Soulatluk (from soulatk, meaning jaw), the Wiyot tribal term for their tongue. (“Wiyot” comes from the tribe’s name for the Eel River.) Linguists generally agree that the Algic ancestor of the three distinct languages — proto-Algonquian, Yurok and Soulatluk — was spoken about 7,000 years ago. What they don’t agree on is where it was spoken. Proposed locations included far-eastern Canada; immediately west of Lake Superior; and the Columbia Plateau stretching across Washington, Oregon and Idaho. The mystery is this: Yurok and Soulatluk are mutually unintelligible, distinct languages in their own right. Instead of being related to each other in the same way that, for instance, Blackfoot and Cheyenne (two Algonquian languages) are, they are very different. Yet, somehow, Yurok and Soulatluk have maintained their uniqueness through the centuries, despite their speakers living next to each other for a thousand or more years. Yurok and Soulatluk tribes were surrounded by people speaking completely unrelated languages, in particular those of the Athabaskan (or Na-Dene), a superfamily consisting of about 50 Indigenous languages. According to DNA evidence, Athabaskan arrived later than Algic in the Americas, and most Athabaskan speakers were — and, to some extent, still are — found in Northwest Canada and Alaska. As I’ve written previously (“Go East, Young May,” June 14, 2012), many

archeologists and anthropologists now question the conventional “land-bridge from Asia to Alaska” theory, arguing that the ancestors of today’s Indigenous people probably used boats to travel south along the “kelp highway” down the Pacific coast: They came by sea, not land. Curiously, the water route ties in with the controversial claims of the late historian Vine Deloria, best known for Custer Died for Your Sins. In his book Red Earth, White Lies, Deloria argued that Native Americans arrived here via transoceanic travel, in accordance with some of their creation stories. For instance, a tradition of Montana’s Blackfoot people is that they formerly lived on the other side of an ocean, while a Hopi belief holds that their ancestors traveled through three worlds, finally crossing the ocean eastward to a new world. Today, about a dozen Yurok tribal members have full first-language fluency, while many more can speak it as a second language, and an active program is in place to teach it at the primary and secondary school level to young tribal members. Soulatluk, on the other hand, has, until recently, been a “sleeping language” following decades of genocide, colonization and forced assimilation. Della Prince, its last known first-language speaker, died in 1962. Prior to her death, University of California Berkeley linguist Karl Teeter worked with Della for four years, building on the work of previous amateur and professional anthropologists and linguists. Thanks to these efforts, the Soulatluk language is mostly well documented and today the 600-member tribe is actively reclaiming its ancestral language. For more on this, and to hear recordings of Della Prince and other first-language Soulatluk speakers, visit www.wiyot.us/157/ Language. l Barry Evans (he/him, barryevans9@ yahoo.com) sends a big hou’ (thank you)

to Marnie Atkins and Lynnika Butler for explaining Wiyot language lore.

Communing with Comedy

Rothaniel and Fire Island By John J. Bennett

screens@northcoastjournal.com

JERROD CARMICHAEL: ROTHANIEL. Despite its boom and bust popularity, stand-up comedy is an elemental art form. Combining obfuscation and transparency, truth and illusion, tragedy and hilarity, it’s all about vulnerability. There can be triumph, even dominance, but the prerequisite is for a spiritually naked person to climb into a spotlight with a microphone and communicate with a room/world full of other people. Like anything, the form is subject to abuse, but treated with appropriate respect, the rite creates a sacred space; laughter is the eucharist. Maybe it’s a little heady, silly even, but the medium relies on personal connection and fundamental honesty, and all of us are adherents and practitioners, to some extent. It can become a form without barriers or boundaries (though that’s a white-hot debate), allowing confession, catharsis and occasional transcendence. Jerrod Carmichael has been active as a stand-up comic, writer, director, producer, etc. for some 15 years and has his bona fides. He has released three specials, fostered projects for other artists, appeared in blockbuster comedies, had his own network sitcom. Still, he hasn’t broken through as a major mainstream “star” and Rothaniel is all the better for it. Having made his bones on stage, Carmichael treats it as his natural habitat, remaining himself as the lights blaze, without pretense or apparent effort; or so one might have thought. With this special, directed by Bo Burnham (Inside, 2021) and performed at New York’s vaunted Blue Note Jazz Club, he takes an hour to talk about secrets: general, famil-

Happy Pride. Fire Island

ial and personal. In a blood-red shirt, Carmichael exercises his mastery of the form to turn the club into a safe space: He expects a dialogue (within reason) with the audience and they, being respectful and attentive, provide a thoughtful one. The hour that follows isn’t raucous or joke-y; it is, in fact, occasionally painful in its rawness and intimacy. But even when he’s telling the crowd (us) he isn’t sure what he’s going to say, that he feels the need to leaven his intimations with jokes, we feel him in complete control. Because Carmichael’s comedic persona has always been unassuming and kindly, something less inflated or elevated than a lot of comics, it feels more natural for him to operate in this mode than it does/would for some. Compared to Aziz Ansari’s 2019 Right Now, a commendable but perhaps too intentional diminution of his onstage character, Rothaniel feels like a person in conversation with himself and with us. It is riskier and closer to the bone than previous work, but feels natural and welcoming. He creates a space for himself but invites in those ready to join him — he makes a few hilarious jokes about all the dudes on their couches who will turn it off midway — so his confessions become lovingly participatory. With Burnham’s empathetic camera placement and editing, Rothaniel not only puts us in the room, on the spot with Carmichael, it creates community. TVMA. 55M. HBO MAX. FIRE ISLAND.

we’re finally getting some breakthrough queer comedies. And it’s about goddamn time. Written by and starring Joel Kim Booster, and directed by Andrew Ahn, Fire Island describes the perhaps-last week-long retreat to the titular party destination for Noah (Booster), his somewhat distanced best friend Howie (Bowen Yang) and their ragtag family of confidants and weirdos. Against the backdrop of constant partying and the growing concern that their den mother Erin (Margaret Cho) might have to sell her house on the island, Noah dedicates himself to getting Howie laid. But when Howie starts to catch feelings and the group intersects with a bunch of snobby WASPs, the week of release and relaxation gets a little heavy. Though not a romantic comedy fan per se, I’ve got space for any movie that can tell its story with heart and authenticity, both of which are found in abundance here. And a coming-of-age story, even/especially one about 30-yearold city kids, does something for me, especially when it brings jokes. R. 105M. HULU. ● John J.

PROPERTY TAX DEFAULTED ON JULY 1, 2016, FOR TAXES, ASSESSMENTS AND OTHER CHARGES FOR

Pursuant to Revenue and Taxation Code 3691 and 3692.4, the following conditions will, by operation of law, subject FISCAL TAX YEAR 2015-16: real property to the Tax Collector’s power to sell. 1) All property for which property taxes and assessments have been in default for five or more years. Note: The power to sell schedule for nonresidential commercial property is three or more years of tax-defaulted status, unless the county adopts, by ordinance or resolution, the five-year tax default schedule. 2) All property that has a nuisance abatement lien recorded against it and for which property taxes and assessments have been in default for three or more years. 3) Any property that has been identified and requested for purchase by a city, county, city and county or nonprofit organization to serve the public benefit by providing housing or services directly related to low-income persons and for which property taxes and assessments have been in default for three or more years. The parcels listed herein meet one or more of the criteria listed above and thus, will become subject to the Tax Collector’s power to sell on July 1, 2022, at 12:01 a.m., by operation of law. The Tax Collector’s power to sell will arise unless the property is either redeemed or made subject to an installment plan of redemption initiated as provided by law prior to close of business on the last business day in June. The right to an installment plan terminates on the last business day in June, and after that date the entire balance due must be paid in full to prevent sale of the property at public auction. The right of redemption survives the property becoming subject to the power to sell, but it terminates at close of business on the last business day prior to the date of the sale by the Tax Collector. All information concerning redemption or the initiation of an installment plan of redemption will be furnished, upon request, by Amy Christensen, Interim- Humboldt County Tax Collector, 825 5th Street, Room 125, Eureka, CA 95501, (707)476-2450.
