Wednesday
On Wednesday I met with Macci Morse my Planning Commissioner to see if she had any questions and if she was enjoying being on the Planning Commission. I still need a commissioner for the Health and Human Services Agency Advisory Board if you or someone you know are interested please contact me. 707-391-3664
Thursday
Coffee and Conversation started with conversations about Mental Health and addiction and how we can support people in our community.
Thursday was a full day of the Ukiah Blue Zones Project with Adventist Health from meetings on Zoom to an in person meeting at the hospital. Don't get me started on health community activities I'll never stop talking. If you didn't catch my other newsletter here is more information about Blue Zones: https://go.bluezonesproject.com/mendocinocounty
Speaking of Adventist Health they asked if we could host a special Streeterie for Nurses Week. Nurses grabbed take out from local restaurants and ate out in the street.
Thankfully Katrina Kessen from the Greater Ukiah Business and Tourism Alliance handled the Streeterie while I was in my office on the Redwood Valley Town Hall for PG&E Settlement. Supervisor McGourty had the great idea of getting assistance from the UCANR and Farm Advisors office and I think it was very successful. We had several break out room sessions to hear feedback from residents about what they want to see the PG&E $22 million used for. We meet in Potter Valley on Saturday.
Friday
Interviews for one of the positions at EDFC continue. Do you know someone that might be a good fit? Have them call me.
Of course Friday was the Streeterie with First Friday Art Walk. It was a great success we had the kids ""Super Natural" from Canova Records and local band Weird Year playing music in the street and everyone had a great time! I haven't heard yet how the other art venues did but don't forget the Art Walk is back! And its the First Friday of every month in Downtown Ukiah from 5-8pm
Saturday
Of course the Second Saturday is the B2 Cleanup. I volunteer to bring my litter pickers and help the folks down at Building Bridges pick up in the neighborhood. If you'd like to join next time please do! Second Saturday at 9am
Sunday
Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers! It was Kasie's first Mother's Day with Teagan and we went to a family lunch at Star's. I hope you had a great day!
Monday
We continue to have EDFC Interviews, so that's how I started Monday. Then I went to meet the New Director of Manzanita Services. I look forward to seeing more collaboration with the Service Providers in Mendocino County Mental Health Issues. And of course I spent the remainder of the afternoon working on notes and tracking down some
B&P issues with a constituent.
Never a dull moment!
