I was interested to see that 73% of the respondents voted “yes” to the Question of the Week, “Do you perceive a conflict of interest in members of county advisory committees…?”
To me this means that there are at least 38 people who would be great candidates to serve on a committee.
As chair of the Marine Resources Committee for the County, I’d like to let you know that we have two positions opening up that I would love to see filled in the next couple of weeks. We are especially interested in a representative from Lopez and someone who is actively interested in visitor-related issues (not necessarily related just to the Port of Friday Harbor). But we are open to anyone with broad expertise and interest in marine issues and the connection of science to policy
If you are one of those people who would like to bring your thoughts and actions, please do apply!
