Humboldt County Supervisors honor Soroptimist award winners and recognize retiree Denny King

The Humboldt County Board of Supervisors convened on May 6, 2025, with all members present, including Chair Bushnell and Supervisors Wilson, Arroyo, Madrone, and Bone. The meeting commenced with a salute to the flag, followed by a review of the agenda.

Chair Bushnell announced three modifications to the agenda, specifically pulling items D13, D16, and D17 for further discussion. The Chair indicated that due to the extensive agenda, the order of discussions might vary.

The first item addressed was a certificate of recognition for the Soroptimist of Arcadia, presented by Supervisor Madrone, who commended the award winners for their achievements. This recognition served as a follow-up to an awards ceremony held two weeks prior.

Next, the Board moved to a retirement resolution for Denny King, who had served the county for 28 years. Supervisor Wilson emphasized the importance of recognizing long-serving public employees, noting that King had already received her resolution prior to the meeting. The Board collectively expressed appreciation for her dedication to public service.

The meeting continued with further agenda items, as the Board aimed to manage the large volume of discussions scheduled for the day. The proceedings highlighted the Board's commitment to honoring community contributions and recognizing the efforts of long-serving individuals within the county.
