The purpose of the Humboldt Bay Trail Fund is to provide financial support for the maintenance and creation of multi-purpose trails (bike paths) around Humboldt Bay for walking, running, biking, and wheeling.
The seven-member Humboldt Bay Trail Fund Committee is comprised of four community members at large, representing trails stakeholders from abroad spectrum of the community, and three public agency representatives from the City of Arcata, City of Eureka, and the Humboldt County Public Works Department. One of the four at-large members will be a representative from the Humboldt Trails Council. HCAOG staff act as the committee administrators but HCAOG is not a voting member.
