As often and vociferously as I have criticized Ms. Johnson in the past in her role as a County Commissioner, she is spot-on with her logic, decision-making, and advice to Coupeville here. "...if you want to be a beneficiary of sales tax dollars, don’t engage in activities that significantly reduce the amount of funds available." Indeed. "It’s time that Coupeville stoppped defining itself as a victim of the Navy." Absolutely. "...the denial happened to allow for what I believe was a much-needed wake-up call..." Glad to see at least both Jill and Rick Hannold are awake on this issue.
