Top issues during term (15)(Environment)
Regional Climate Action Plan Implementation (RCEA MOU)
About $80,933 per year from the general fund through 2030 (roughly $324,000 total), already budgeted.
Rural Container Sites and Redway Transfer Station
Solid waste operations are self-funded through disposal fees, tipping fees and franchise fees — no general fund ask.
Proposition 45 Opposition Resolution
Symbolic — no direct county cost, though the measure could shift review costs onto counties if it passes.
Redwood Tree Removal Moratorium (Pulled)
Removing the 60-inch retention conditions lets landowners harvest valuable timber they'd otherwise have to leave standing.
Slurry disposal contamination near Redwood Creek
No cost figure given; cleanup responsibility rests with the contractor.
Solid Waste Franchise Agreements Delayed
Illegal dumping enforcement and penalties
Cleanup costs run far beyond current fines — only one dumping prosecution is known since the ordinance last changed.
Bridgeville Quarry Permit Compliance
Could add compliance costs for quarry operators with older equipment, though state timelines and low-population-county extensions already apply.
Shoreline armoring policy
Black Dog McKinleyville wetland and zoning cleanup
Middle Mad River Forest Enhancement Project
Westfall Property Conservation and Housing Trade-off
$68,750 cancellation penalty to the county plus an equal share to the state; the house parcel stays on the tax rolls.
Elk River Estuary restoration and sea level rise
Funded largely by state grants (Coastal Conservancy, Wildlife Conservation Board, NOAA); long-term maintenance funding remains uncertain.
Streamside management area reduction for cannabis projects
Timber harvest jurisdiction near Redway
