John Fullerton resigned from the Humboldt Audit Committee

On the agenda for the December 19, 2023 Board of Supervisors meeting, I noticed a vacancy on the Humboldt Audit Committee. Before I even clicked on the attachments, I knew it was John Fullerton. Just a feeling. I was correct.

I am sure we won't know the real reason for Fullerton's resignation, even if I asked. At one point, I would have followed up but I am busy enough and I doubt Fullerton will give the real reason. The Next time he comments online on his "preferred media" about parking lots or defend the good ole boy sycophantic cause du jour, he could enlighten the public on why he chose to exit on the appointment Rex asked him to take during the 2022 election crusade by the County against former Auditor Controller Karen Paz Dominguez.

In my Oct 16, 2022 post, I wrote,"In listing all his qualifications, why has John Fullerton not mentioned his appointment to the Humboldt County audit committee? "

"Months ago, Fullerton told me that he told First District Supervisor Rex Bohn that he would call it as he sees it on the Audit committee. Do you believe Fullerton is independent of the good ole boys and Rex? Ask the same question of Tiffany Hunt Nielsen."

"Fullerton was the only one who applied for the at large position at the Audit Committee. He was appointed. No one else wrote about it."

Maybe Rexy could appoint his good friend Alan Bongio before the March 2024 primary?. I am being sarcastic but it could happen. There are plenty of other yes men and women for Rex to chose from; let's see who applies.
