Why Commissioners “blinked” by Selinda Barkhuis, County Treasurer
OK, I think I know why they blinked. I don’t claim to have first-hand knowledge of what happened during the June 30 executive session that preceded the open business meeting where the County Commissioners unanimously decided to “rescind the grants” and “pull back” the $1 million warrant to the Port and the $285,952 warrant to the City that I had “referred to maker” two weeks earlier. ---PORT O CALL---Read more
QUOTE: Well, because during that executive session, I think, somebody must have explained to them the ramifications of RCW 36.40.130 if it turns out in court that I was right all along, and that the Commissioners had absolutely no good reason to rely on the Prosecutor’s legal opinion. Because that opinion, pardon the legalese, is nothing but a pile of crap. ---County Treasure, Selinda Barkhuis
Editorial Comment: Sounds to me she isn't about to give in even when all the protocols are addressed. This was on Port O Call webpage, which she only has communications with currently.
