Curious what happens after you call call the COVID compliance tip line?

I was able to get some clarification from Humbolt County Sheriff William Honsal and Eureka Police Chief Steve Watson about the COVID tip line.

"Unfortunately, in this time we have to triage all the calls for service.  We will do our best to serve your needs in the priority it warrants," said Sheriff Honsal.

Each jurisdiction is handling tips passed on to them.

City of Eureka has decided that Code Enforcement will take the lead instead of law enforcement.

After the special meeting on Monday, Code Enforcement will be empowered to follow up.on tips from this compliance tip line.

The first step will be education and information. If it continues, citations and warnings will be issued if warranted and "enforcement is the last resort," said Chief Watson.

Voluntary compliance is preferred.  "We are all in this together," said Chief Watson.
