SUPERVISOR PINCHES said Monday that he won’t run again for 3rd District supervisor. “I never considered myself a politician, nevermind a career politician.

He also intimated that poor health, “heart problems” as he described it, has persuaded him to retire, as have the difficulties of trying to manage his Eel River Canyon ranch from a temporary home in Willits while traveling to Ukiah almost every day to carry out his supervisor’s responsibilities. Pinches said his one big fear is that the County will resume “spending money we don’t have.”
