Taylor Clark and John Mauro caught up on what Taylor’s got going on (hint: he’s stepped up to be the interim General Manager for KPTZ as we search for a new GM). They talked about how important it is in a place like Port Townsend to step up and get involved. There was a good question about the inclusion of housing in the latest revision of the golf course proposals. Also, upcoming at Monday’s city council meeting will be a report from the Financial Sustainability Task Force that should be worth checking out. John made the point that we need to make clear choices about what we do, and also what we choose not to do.
