Residents raise drainage concerns and Rutland Quarry at Humboldt County supervisors meeting
Summary
During public concerns at the June 1 meeting, Ron Collins raised a drainage problem by his property and Kieth Edge and Kent Tigges spoke about the Rutland Quarry; the board noted the issues and continued with other business.
During the public concerns portion of the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors’ June 1 meeting, three residents flagged local issues for the board’s attention.
Chairperson Bruce Reimers opened the public-concerns period and Ron Collins discussed a drainage issue by his property and the status of getting it fixed. Two other residents, Kieth Edge and Kent Tigges, raised concerns about the Rutland Quarry. The minutes record the public comments but do not show formal board action on either matter at that time.
Why it matters: drainage problems can affect property, roads and local flood risk; quarry activities often raise concerns about traffic, dust and local land use. The minutes indicate the board heard the comments but do not record commitments or deadlines for staff follow-up in the public-comments entry.
The board later discussed a separate facilities item — a dead tree on the courthouse lawn — and noted that Secondary Roads would handle its removal. The meeting continued with routine agenda items and adjourned at 12:07 p.m.
The public-comments record does not include direct quotes or additional detail about requested remedies or timelines; those details were not specified in the minutes.
