The light-hearted banter at last night’s Bay District meeting ends up serving as a metaphor for the way the Commission is moving on it’s Redwood Marine Terminal Development project.

Cue the Earth Wind and Fire:

"It's time to get together.

It's up to you.

What's your pleasure?

Everyone around the Bay, Come on!"

Yup, the NCRA is coming to town, Wednesday (at 10 or 11am) at the Supervisor's Chambers, and we are up for a good show Friday at 7pm when the Bay Commission plays the Wharfinger.

The Humboldt Bay Harbor, Recreation and Conservation District just posted its final business plan for the Redwood Marine Terminal.

The Humboldt Bay Stewards symposium on the Redwood Marine Terminal ended up being a full-house affair at the Wharfinger tonight.

John Shaefer checks out the scale of a Port of Oakland Crane compared with the Carson Mansion.

The Bay Commission last night ended up being pretty cordial given the tension left over from the previous meeting. Hats off to District President and 4^th District Commissioner Dennis Hunter for setting the tone at the beginning of the meeting, urging respect for different opinions, as well as adherence to the principals of communication, courtesy and common sense.

It won't be as physically explosive as LNG, but it may remind you of that controversy. The stars are aligning for a contentious meeting this Thursday at the Humboldt Bay Harbor Recreation and Conservation District (HBHRCD).
