McCullough Ranch timberland reclassification
750 acres near Ferndale and Rio Dell shift into TPZ, restricting the land to timber production while cutting the owner's property taxes about $3,200 a year. Supporters say it keeps working lands in the family for generations.
Garberville mixed-use rezone
This new ordinance lets builders put duplexes through five-unit buildings — and larger apartments with a permit — in single-family and two-family zones across Redway, Garberville, Miranda, Weott, Scotia, McKinleyville, and Eureka-area neighborhoods, at up to 25 units per acre. Commissioners wrestled with whether narrow rural streets and limited parking can handle it; the compromise eases parking for bigger projects near bus stops. It now goes to the Board of Supervisors.
