Some articles can be read in a minute or two or three, and some that might take an hour.
This information is here to help and support YOU.
If there are articles on other topics you’d like to see, or research or other transcriptions of videos that would be helpful, please send a note via the “Contact Us” page.
Thank you for your service and contribution to our community !

• Read and re-read Andrea Tuttle’s letter. The points she makes are excellent. Her 5 points, however, are only a fraction of where the December 2021 draft plan needs help.
• Take some time to read (or skim) the “Transcription of the Gateway Plan Presentation, with Comments & Opinion” article. Yes, it is long. There are some suggestions in the article on how to skim it. You can read it and watch the video at the same time, or read it without the video. This article discusses many of the large issues that a plan of this size brings up — and which this current plan has no answers for or misrepresents.
• Any of the transcripts from the Planning Commission meetings provide fascination insights into what goes on.
• The Cal Poly Humboldt Expansion article gives the numbers for what we’re looking at. And it’s not just the students and faculty and staff — there’s also the “job multiplier” which could also add 2,000 additional people to the wider community.
• Enjoy “A Modest Proposal” as humor. And watch “A Short History of America” — a 1-minute video. Presented here for your enjoyment.
