Candidates for WSF head George Capacci and John Ladenberg answer questions from the public

Washington State Ferries (WSF) candidates for CEO of the division within the State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) George Capacci and John Ladenberg  answered questions on Monday, June 9 about how they will take our state ferry system forward in the future.

From working with unions to Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) retro fits, both answered tough question on how to solve the complex problems that riddle WSF ferry system. It was an honor for the residents of San Juan County to be one of two communities in the state to meet both candidates and other key WDOT staff.

Many thanks to the Secretary of Transportation for affording our community input into this crucial selection process.
