Nick Angeloff kicks off Harbor District campaign on August 26

Nick Angeloff, candidate for the Second District seat on the Humboldt Bay
Harbor, Recreation & Conservation District board of commissioners, will
launch his campaign with a rally in front of the Samoa Cookhouse at 12:15
p.m., Wednesday, August 26.
About the economic importance of the harbor, Angeloff says, “The harbor is
the economic engine of the district and, for that matter, one for the entire
county. Our harbor can move 10 million tons of freight annually, yet we
continue to operate at less than 10 percent, a failing grade in my assessment.
If we continue to ignore the harbor, we will lose our Army Corps of
Engineers’ dredging. This would preclude shipping by making the harbor
entrance much more dangerous and would discourage growth of our fishing
fleet. Our economic future is at stake.”
The rally will precede the monthly luncheon meeting of the Humboldt Bay
Harbor Working Group at the Samoa Cookhouse, at which the commander of
the Coast Guard station will be the guest speaker.
