I believe this to be the only choice when it boils down to quality control and conviction to do the job as best as possible. Smith-Hanes is a no-brainer choice. He has been doing exceptional work and is a honest communicator - I appreciate honest communicators. He takes over for Loretta who also did a fine job for the county, especially in lieu of the financial shell games.

Good Luck Phil and Thank You Loretta for your best efforts and hard work.

Wow, a degree in public administration...someone rush to tell HSU that they a exist!

Would have been nice to also read the compensation for this top position.

Surely it would ruffle some feathers during the Great Recession.

You can look up the salary on the county website under https://co.humboldt.ca.us/jobs/salary/ You can look up every county job on there and see what they make. The CAO makes $13,672 which is roughly $164,000 a year before taxes.
