Just read this over at KXRO’s blog:
Port of Grays Harbor may incorporate Friends Landing and SterlingĀ Landing
Doesn’t look dramatic, but I’m wondering about the “whys”. I guess reverting ownership to a public agency would lower the costs for the org (a 501(c)(3)). And I’d expect the title for this transfer would have some conditions regarding what the Port Authority could actually do with the property. What are the full range of pros and cons? We’ll need to wait and see, I guess.
As Grays Harbor has struggled economically with the decrease in logging, losing key jobs with mill closings, I watch for these sorts of activities hoping that some economic revitalization can occur. I love the Washington Coast and it’s communities, wishing the greatest success to them all.
