Port delays talk about land offer

A purchase offer for some land at Possession Beach Waterfront Park will be discussed by the Port of South Whidbey at its regular meeting Tuesday, Dec. 11 at 7:30 p.m.

Clyde and Marcia Monma have offered $250,000 for two parcels of property along the Dorothy Cleveland Trail in an effort to stop construction of a cellular phone tower on port property at Possession Point. The item was originally on the agenda for a special port meeting Dec. 4, but that meeting will instead be dedicated to discussing the Langley harbor project and the port’s comprehensive plan.

The Dec. 11 regular meeting at which the Monma offer will be discussed will be held at the South Whidbey Parks & Recreation District office at 5475 Maxwelton Road. The Dec. 4 special meeting will begin at 6:30 p.m. in the port office below the China City restaurant in Freeland.
