It’s all happening at Lost Coast Outpost. To avoid confusion, go to the bottom and read up. I didn’t realize I was reading it backwards for a few minutes and it was reading like the movie Memento.
Is Sundberg breaking from the conservative majority? He says that he is not interested in scuttling the plan in its entirety. He did just barely win the last election against an environmental activist, and since then his district has lost Blue Lake. He can’t afford to be cavalier about it.

Eric, by relying on Hank Sims “live blogging” to get a comprehensive understanding of that meeting and what the Supes said and asserted etc, seems to answer the question as to why your political perspective always seems to be so shallow and off the mark. You don’t seem to ever do your own in depth homework.
I watched the whole meeting on ch. 11 from start to finish. I went ahead and read Hank Sims blog entries and the whole thing was a waste. His entries offered little substance as to what was really said and discussed.There was only one thing of substance in his entry and that was stating correctly that Sundberg asked the staff to produce the GPU report that was more user friendly and understandable and asked that a chart be made with the framework plan in one box, next to that, the proposed change and the reason for it.
All of the Supes were in favor of that too.
This new Gpu document with the “proposed” changes to the framework plan should not just be “rubberstamped” by the Supervisors.
It is a huge document with many layers and they need to carefully review it and understand what they’re voting in.

Eric can you plug in some reasoning here on why the Supes meet on days when most of us can’t attend? I understand they have loads of work to do but really it does cut down on public input and government transparency. I completely disagree with the troll above but I don’t always agree with Hank’s outlook on things either.

I don’t know. Do other counties hold Supervisor meetings in the evening?

Good question. And I don’t know the answer to that one. But I know the effects of the timing is still chilling for public participation unless you are a business owner who can call his or her own shots on time.
