Humboldt Bay Area Plan Community Meeting on Tuesday

This is a press release from the County of Humboldt:

The County of Humboldt invites you to participate in the update of the Humboldt Bay Area Plan (HBAP).

The HBAP is a plan that is certified by the California Coastal Commission that establishes policies on how the unincorporated area around Humboldt Bay and its coastline can be used. It is in the process of being comprehensively updated to address issues including sea level rise, tsunami awareness and land use requirements.

The Humboldt County Planning & Building Department will hold a virtual community meeting at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, June 16 to go over the HBAP Public Draft with the public. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn more about the proposed changes and updates, ask questions and make public comment.

You may review the most recent draft of the plan on the county’s website at HumboldtGov.org/HumboldtBayAreaPlanUpdate.
