Comment on Silverdale Incorporation Questions by Kitsap Caucus » Blog Archive » Silverdale Incorporation Debate Sparks Up, Again

Tue, 27 Apr 2010 11:03:19 +0000

[...] I’m resurrecting a blog entry I wrote in October 2007, after the last incorporation talks fizzled. In the entry I sent 10 questions to Tacoma attorney Jennifer Forbes, who works for the firm McGavick Graves. She lives in Poulsbo and was asked by Hank Mann-Sykes back in August 2007 to attend incorporation meetings to offer a legal perspective to the discussions. (Read the complete blog post, formerly on the CK Beat, here.) [...]

Best wishes, Jeff ,,,, The library was lucky to find you.
In addition, thanks for your years at the Kitsap Sun and for a reality check of the newsroom.
It proves out the saying that great leadership, professionalism, and innovative creativity done right, looks easy to the layperson.

“… Editor David Nelson, Local News Editor Kim Rubenstein and Web Editor Angela Dice have done a phenomenal job bringing you coverage of Kitsap County handicapped by having far fewer resources than that job requires.

When Scott Ware and I were editor and managing editor of the Sun, we didn’t feel we had to staff to do the job we wanted to do — with 45 people in the newsroom. David and Kim are now trying to do that job with 20 fewer staff members than Scott and I had, and at the same time, they are doing more with the kitsapsun.com web site. So I truly appreciate the creativity and innovation David and Kim are bringing to their jobs.”

Thank you, Jeff.

Jeff,

Thanks for blogging. I am looking forward to the new Silverdale Library and know that you will be a great asset to them. Your blogs have been enjoyable and a pleasure to read. Thank you for your diligence and I know as a community we will continue to enjoy the effects of your hard work.

PS: It is good to see you at the gym in the early mornings! I always want to say “Hello” but you don’t know who I am. I am a personal trainer at Silverdale Fitness and I am also spear-heading the Silverdale Dog Park project. Which the County is still dragging their feet on. “Very frustrating”

Happy Holidays!

Comment on What Value Would You Place on a New Silverdale Library? by cynic

The calculator sets the value of borrowing a used book from a very limited collection at $27.00. I can go to the used book store and buy one in better condition for less than half of that. Then I can turn it in for book credit and cut my costs even more. The library is a useful and essential part of our community, but we should be realistic about the value of services.
