2008 session bodes ill for South Kitsap
2008 session bodes ill for South Kitsap
By Robert Meadows • April 26, 2008 9:46 am

County’s fiscal discipline a good first step
By Robert Meadows • December 4, 2007 12:31 pm

The job our county officials have done on the proposed general fund budget for 2008 seems too good to be true.
