This morning, CNL2’s Jeff Noedel interviewed San Juan County Council Chairperson The Hon. Jane Fuller.
Subjects discussed included:
- Potential impacts on San Juan County if Initiative 2117 (repeal of Climate Commitment Act) passes
- What will be the County’s big “asks” of the Governor and State Legislature in the 2025 Biennial Session, just seven months away?
- Should San Juan County form a ferry taxing district?
- What is the state of the County budget, and what does it look like in the next 24 months?
- Her thoughts on the proposed Opalco solar microgrid at Bailer Hill & Douglas Roads?
- While the 32-hour workweek has produced some good results, what about public-facing departments that close for an entire weekday?
- How can the County and Town of Friday Harbor resolve the fairgrounds water issue and unite going forward?
Unfortunately, we ran out of time to discuss affordable housing, which deserves its own show. Jane agreed to return to CNL2 to discuss affordable housing in the future.
This CNL2 video is approximately 57 minutes in duration.
The system to elect council members (previously County Commissioners) has been in place long before 2005.
