I would love for those who have taken the time to write in thus far to listen to the presentation by the parks board at our next council meeting. If the information presented changes your opinion (and please listen with an open mind), let us know. If it doesn’t and you still maintain the same opinion, please let us know as well!

We are here to represent the public, I only ask that those concerned take the time to hear all of the angles to this nuanced issue before making their determination on the best path moving forward.

“….According to Councilmember Bryan Stucky, the call for more is working.

“I’ve probably gotten more emails on this than any other issue,” he said.

That said, some of the input so far indicates a misunderstanding of the issue that will be cleared up by a parks and recreation advisory commission presentation on July 9, he said. For example, parks already cannot be sold if grants were used or if the land donated was asked to stay a park.”


Whidbey groups are calling to voice concerns over a potential change to a city ordinance.
