• What Fort Bragg Asked Chris Rogers (mendolocal.news) — Fort Bragg residents pressed Assemblymember Chris Rogers at a town hall on transportation funding, affordable housing access, sea-level-rise threats at the mill site, and the future of local health care. He outlined bills and ideas aimed at steering more state money, biomass jobs, and fairer tax-sharing toward small cities like Fort Bragg, while warning that AI-driven growth could leave rural communities behind.
• Newsom administration proposes removing explorer John C. Frémont's name from state park, citing his violence against Native Americans (santacruzsentinel.com) — California officials are considering renaming Fremont Peak State Park to an Ohlone name, part of a broader effort to revisit honors for historical figures tied to violence against Native peoples. For Fort Bragg readers, the story echoes the city council's 2020 decision not to pursue changing Fort Bragg's own name, underscoring how communities statewide are wrestling with similar questions about identity and history.
• Memo Of The Air (wordpress.com) — Fort Bragg's own KNYO-LP has posted the latest eight-hour "Memo of the Air" show for on-demand listening and is asking locals to chip in to support the tiny, fully listener-backed station. Host Marco also highlights recent Fort Bragg demonstrations and invites residents to send in stories, dreams, or rants to be read on-air, alongside a sprawling grab bag of quirky links.
