DISCUSSION:
Humboldt Cruisers, a local group, is sponsoring a cruise in support of local essential services and blue-collar agencies. This event will be held on Saturday, September 26, 2020, in Eureka. Employees of the Humboldt County Department of Public Works - Roads Division are requesting approval to enter county-owned pickups numbers 06262 and 06277 in the cruise. Employees will volunteer their time to drive the county equipment in the cruise. The employees feel this will be beneficial to the Humboldt Cruise attendees as well as beneficial to the morale of the employees. Although this event is not intended to draw spectators your Boards' approval would be contingent on the event organizers submitting their plan to the Emergency Operation Center (EOC) for review and approval and any recommended public health measures being in place.
