This week on County Connections, co-hosts Jim Burke and Commissioner Greg Brotherton spoke with Scott Mauk, Superintendent of Chimacum Schools , about the potential Jeffco Aquatic Center being planned in the county potentially to be located in Port Hadlock near the county library, Chimacum Creek Primary School, and Habitat for Humanity’s new Mason Street Neighborhood project. Last week Diane McDade, was on the show, and talked about the history of The JeffCo Aquatic Coalition and efforts to create this new facility. This week Scott Mauk talks about the synergies possible between the Aquatic Center and the School, both benefiting from the connection to the new Port Hadlock sewer. Residents and non-residents alike can help shape the design of the facility by participating in a county-wide recreation survey. Information from this survey will help identify what county residents want to see in a new pool and recreation center. After February and March, the survey will also be open to visitors of Jefferson County to gauge interest. The survey should take only about five minutes.
