Should this be a concern? If no, why not. If yes, what would you like to see happen? Do you feel confident the city has plans for our future? Is it important to have plans for the future? Pick one or all questions to comment on.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6304305035052759124-4203462838857933021?l=fhogblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Kirknoreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6304305035052759124.post-47576077507304013642007-01-07T10:01:00.000-08:002007-01-07T10:11:53.419-08:00A recent survey of Chamber membership identified most members do not want a large retail store in Anacortes. Conversely, a survey of FHOG members indicated most residents want "improved shopping options", but it also showed we are split on what kind of retailer comes to town or where we should put it. What should the city do now? Do we have more 3 minute speeches in front of city council (with predictable results) or should we try another approach? Any suggestions?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6304305035052759124-4757607750730401364?l=fhogblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Kirknoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6304305035052759124.post-7890597682946821442007-01-03T12:38:00.000-08:002007-01-07T10:30:06.511-08:00The Anacortes School District is considering a $76M bond issue for school improvements. This bond will provide funds to upgrade AHS with a new career and technology wing and provide upgrades to the sports facility (among other things) at the high schol. The bond also provides for a new maintenance facility and adds a gym, art room and compter lab at Mt. Erie elementary. Do you support the approval of this bond? Why or why not?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6304305035052759124-789059768294682144?l=fhogblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Kirknoreply@blogger.com4
