DISCUSSION:

The Alderpoint Bridge has not previously been issued an official name by the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors; however, this bridge is affectionately known by the community as the Trevor John Earley Bridge. Trevor John Earley was a fourth generation Alderpoint community member whose life ended tragically early, when he was murdered at the young age of 25.

 

The Alderpoint Bridge holds special significance for the community and has become a gathering place for family, friends and loved ones to celebrate Earley’s life and share cherished memories. This bridge stands as a heartfelt tribute to a young man who touched countless lives with his compassion, strength and unwavering spirit.

 

Consistent with the criteria listed in Resolution 95-92 for the naming of county bridges, roads, parks and geographic features, the Board of Supervisors will consider establishing the name of the Alderpoint Bridge as the Trevor John Earley Memorial Bridge so that Earley will be forever cherished and remembered by his community at this local landmark.
