Humboldt County Behavioral Health Board approves letter supporting AB 2076 to curb nitrous oxide sales to minors
Summary
The Humboldt County Behavioral Health Board unanimously approved a draft letter urging the Board of Supervisors to support AB 2076, a state bill to make selling nitrous oxide to minors unlawful and impose civil penalties on retailers; staff will correct one paragraph and submit the letter.
The Humboldt County Behavioral Health Board voted April 23 to approve a draft letter of support for AB 2076, a state bill that would make it unlawful to sell nitrous oxide to minors and impose civil penalties on retailers. The board requested a correction to the letter’s second paragraph; staff will make the edit and forward the document to the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors.
Nancy Starck, DHHS legislative program manager, explained the recommendation and said staff had circulated the draft to the ad hoc legislation committee for review. After a brief discussion, the board voted unanimously to approve the letter; the minutes record the approval but do not list individual vote tallies.
The action formalizes the board’s local advocacy on substance-related prevention for youth. The letter will be submitted to the Board of Supervisors for consideration before the county takes any further formal position. Nancy Starck is responsible for making the requested correction and submitting the letter.
