I have lived in Dungeness on 3 Crabs for 32 years and have watched how we band together when challenged by the County. They disrespect, ignore, and then tell us what they will do to us. They wanted to put in 3 Crabs for the sewer system because the bay had fecal matter, and it was all of us. It was coming from all the septic systems along the river. But we had to stand up to make it go away.

It is past time we formed the Dungeness Village Council, including Dungeness, Jamestown, Brigadoon, Woodland Heights, and Main's Farm/Marine Drive areas.

This council would be advisory only but would get respect from the county and the district commissioner.

Other areas which have less influence, such as Seiku, have councils. Because we are close to Sequim, we get lumped in with them without the say or benefits.

Significant changes are coming to the Dungeness Recreation area that we should be privy to, but they have not been discussed publicly.

We would deal with facts, not rumors.

Neither the tribe nor the county are our enemies; we must encourage them to work with us and not do to us. And we can only do that from a position of strength.

Thanks for a great insight to what is going on with the Commisioners and the Towne Rd. project.
