Port Angeles and Clallam County Spend And Tax Into Debt

The City of Port Angeles and Clallam County spending their way into a tax increases to pay for all of their liberal lunatic wish lists.

Clallam’s budget is expected to be over 4 million in the red unless, as this site as advocated for years, finally mandate a huge cut in staff, departments are being asked to reduce projected costs by 7 percent which, as everyone knows is pennies compared to personnel costs, even budget officials admit that “the lion’s share of the increased debt is in payroll [and] benefits.”

Budget officials however are also not counting on reserves which would alleviate some of the huge deficit so are in fact hinting at a massive tax increase and in today’s economy and layoffs, that will not sit well but this is Clallam County and Port Angeles after all, where those whom aren’t liberal, woke lunatics, are too passive and feckless to fight back.

Payroll is seeing a massive increase caused mostly by benefit expenditures.

The County admits the greatest cause of the increasing debt is personnel costs for the county’s budgeted 344 full-time employees and payment to risk management and workers compensation funds and the possible impact of certain pending labor union contract negotiations.

In the case of Port Angeles, lunatics like this Lindsey Charmin Warmer never met a woke program he did not support including providing free housing to everyone including Central American Gang Members.

First, The Psychos invite the anti-white anti-American Terrorists into the area then force Public Works to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on changing street signs so the newly arrived, criminal constituents can find their way to the free housing they will receive.

Port Angeles also just spent over two hundred thousand on a failed Public Records Act Defense in which The City Clerk, this Martinez-Bailey, tried to ban a requester from contacting any one but her for records request of which the court fired back…

We have also previously held that a requester need not “submit their request to a designated PRA coordinator.” O’Dea v. City of Tacoma, 19 Wn. App. 2d 67, 80, 493 P.3d 1245 (2021).

Over the past two dozen years or so Port Angeles has gone through several clerks and finance directors mostly due to criminal behavior.
