Port of Anacortes Budget

The 2009 Port of Anacortes budget has been approved and this is great news for Anacortes home owners! Since our property taxes are budget based, the funds that taxpayers pay this year will about the same as last year....$530,000. The millage reate will actually go down one cent per $1,000 to $.84/$1000 (this is just for the Port of Anacortes portion of property taxes).

The budget eas based on the moorage rate for the Cap Sante Boat Haven to increase by only 5% rather than 10% which is great news for Anacortes boaters. It also included some environmental clean up projects and a new boat ramp at Wyman's Marina another plus for boaters!

The Great Debate

After more than 35 Anacortes city council, commissioner and subcommittee meetings and public hearings, there is still no answer to the $64,000 question....or should I say 50,000 square feet question? Should the city of Anacortes allow retail buildings larger than 50,000 square feet in the Commercial Marine area of Anacortes?

The great debate will continue through 2009 requiring more work by city staff, planning commissioners and city councilors.

It is a difficult decision without an easy answer. The city wants to not only protect but also promote local businesses, but with the possibility of the Samish Tribe providing land for a box store on land that would not generate city taxes, the city has a difficult decision on what is best for businesses, the city, and the tax payers.
