||| FROM GAIL SCHNEE for ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL |||


The San Juan County Economic Development Council (EDC) and attorney Mary Schmitt will present a workshop on the New Homestead Exemption Monday, February 28, 2022, at 12 noon via Zoom.
The Homestead Statute was amended last year in response to the substantial increase in home values in the State of Washington. This may help San Juan County homeowners and small business owners who are facing financial difficulty. The Homestead Exemption can protect homeowners in the event of bankruptcy.
The workshop will be held on Monday, February 28, 2022, at 12:00 Noon via Zoom. Advance registration is required. Please register through the following link: https://bit.ly/3BnaHE9.
The EDC thanks the WA Department of Commerce, San Juan County, the Town of Friday Harbor, the Port of Friday Harbor, and the Port of Lopez for their support of EDC’s business recovery and startup programs.
The Economic Development Council of San Juan County (EDC) strives to support small rural enterprises, and conduct projects to stimulate new job creation, strengthen the economic base for working families, and support overall quality of life for islanders.
