    Appropriate staff support for our County Supervisors is long overdue and is critical to going forward to address our population's current and growing needs. Our Supervisors deserve the appropriate resources to best serve the people of Mendocino County. I served as staff to County Supervisor in Richmond, Ca. I worked on special regional projects like organizing and meeting with representatives from jurisdictions along the I-80 corridor to develop requests to Caltrans for mitigation measures associated with the I-80 widening project. Our office had three staff members for the following purposes: answer constituent calls, provide administrative support, special regional projects. We had a field office including our 3 staff members and our County Supervisor. It is time for our County to get professional. Please support this item. Karen Bowers, Chair, Coast Democratic Club.
