DISCUSSION:
Each year the Truckers’ Christmas Parade in December is a large community event supported by both the private and public sectors. This event will be held on Saturday, December 11, 2021, in Eureka. Humboldt County Public Works employees are requesting approval to enter county-owned equipment numbers 94140 and 22615, in the parade. Employees will volunteer their time to decorate and drive the county equipment in the parade and pay all entry fees. The employees feel this will be beneficial to the parade attendees as well as beneficial to the morale of the employees. The Public Works’ entry generally places first or second in the parade.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
All costs will be borne by volunteers from the Humboldt County Public Works Department. As a result, the recommended action will not impact the Humboldt County General Fund.
STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK:
The recommended action supports the Board of Supervisors’ Strategic Framework by inviting civic engagement and awareness of available services.
