Protect HB has no opinion regarding the ongoing HB Airshow, however, we have very strong opinions about giving away taxpayer dollars to a political ally.
The settlement was prompted by a lawsuit from Kevin Elliott and Pacific Airshow after the last day of the 2021 Airshow was cancelled due to the hazardous conditions caused by the oil spill as a result of damage to the Amplify Oil underwater pipelines. The suit alleged that the city was at fault for unilaterally cancelling the last day of the airshow.
The HB City Attorney settled the lawsuit before the case ever went to court and attempted to keep the terms of the settlement hidden. As a result of Gina Clayton-Tarvin's successful lawsuit requiring the city to reveal the settlement under California's Public Records law, we now know the settlement is a huge giveaway to the City Attorney's and Council Majority's political supporter.
Furthermore, Kevin Elliott sued Kim Carr, the ceremonial mayor at the time of the oil spill, claiming that she was responsible for cancelling the last day of the airshow. She DID NOT settle with him--she fought back in court. On October 12, 2024, Kevin Elliott dropped the lawsuit against her. The result of this suit is another indication that the City should not have settled.

This is the first of two petitions about the library. Ordinance 4318 allows the City Council to appoint up to 21 people who will decide what books can be purchased for the Huntington Beach Libraries. They can also review books in the collection to determine if they should be restricted from anyone under 18 years old. All of these decisions are final and unappealable.
