The largest price setback that this fishery has ever seen
b'Fresh crab will be hitting the docks this weekend, after the Dungeness crab season opened on the North Coast with historically low prices. Fishermen will be selling at $2.25 a pound, which is less than half of last year\\u2019s price.\\n\\nLauren Schmitt, of KMUD news, spoke with Harrison Ibach, President of the Humboldt Fishermen\\u2019s Marketing Association as he was setting pots on Tuesday.\\n\\nWhile crab boats contended with rough weather in the Humboldt Bay this week, residents at Creekside Cabins, a community on privately-owned land north of Willits, are still living with the aftermath of the most recent winter storms. Code enforcement declared a public nuisance at the property last week, due to a sinkhole that blocked vehicle access to the property. County social workers are scheduled to be on site today to advise residents. According to a county press release, an exit-only temporary bridge is due to be installed next week. The only vehicles that will be allowed to enter the property will be those that are there to remove things. \\n\\nThe press release states that \\u201cAt this time there is no existing plan for permanent access to the site, so this will seriously compromise the ability of sewer, garbage and emergency response to provide service to the site.\\u201d\\n\\nAnd OptumServe, a state-provided covid testing service that has also offered covid treatment, is ending its services in Mendocino County. The site at the Ukiah fairgrounds closed yesterday, while the site at the Veterans Services building in Fort Bragg is scheduled to close next Tuesday.'
