DISTRICT 1 NEWS
December 2012

There are a few events this week (other than Christmas) I want you to know about.
On Thursday in the Commissioners' office there will be an open house to thank Angie Homola for her service to Island County as the District 2 County Commissioner. You are welcome to drop in (Admin bldg. Room #214) any time between 10 am and 3 pm to share refreshments, appreciations and stories.
At 6:30 pm on Thursday, the Board will hold a public hearing on the amended Shoreline Master Program in the Commmissioners' Hearing Room. There will be a video link from the Camano Annex. This is the culmination of two years of extensive public outreach, discussion and compromise. I am proud to say that, though not perfect, it does update our policies and reflect our community's goals for preserving our shoreline.
Then on Friday at 1:30 pm in Judge Hancock's courtroom Jill Johnson and I will take the oath of office. Immediately following the ceremony there will be a reception on the first floor of the Administration Bldg. Room #116. Please join us as I begin another four years as Commissioner for District 1 and she begins her first term on the Board. |
