Once again Republican Commissioner Emerson demonstrates her bi-partisan approach in serving the citizens of Island County with her nomination of Jim Hall, a liberal Democrat to the Planning Commission because of his realistic approach to planning and business expertise
Democrat (no growth) Commissioner Homola would have rather had Russ Holmes appointed because he is an active member of CARE, a no growth, special interest group similar to Whidbey Island based WEAN
Democrat Commissioner Price-Johnson agreed with Emerson’s rational for nominating Mr. Hall

Unlike Commissioner Angie Homola’s meaningless “first ever Book End” award at the recent Washington State Association of Counties for exemplary efforts in reaching across the “isle” to establish…”, Emerson’s performance demonstrates once again the true meaning of reaching across the AISLE
We need more of that thinking at all levels of Government
