Good morning, Port Angeles.
🏛️ Government
Clallam-Jefferson Pro Bono Lawyers hosted an observance of Law Day at the Elwha Heritage Center in Port Angeles where state Supreme Court Justice Sal Mungia gave a keynote address on the importance of the rule of law.
The event honored pro bono service with awards to James Rodriguez, Lillian Powers and retired Judge Frank Cuthbertson—highlighting support for low-income residents.
The Clallam County Charter Review Commission is asking residents to give input on seven proposals that could change how county government works (counties with a Home Rule Charter review the charter every 10 years).
The anonymous online survey is open through May 31 and written comments can also be sent to the county commissioners office.
State 24th Legislative District lawmakers met as state budgets await Gov. Bob Ferguson’s approval to address a predicted $16 billion shortfall through spending cuts and new revenue streams.
They proposed an operating budget of $77.8 billion, a transportation budget of $15.6 billion with new vehicle taxes, and a capital budget of $7.5 billion that funds projects like the Port Angeles YMCA Early Learning facility & other local priorities.
