KINGSTON — A stalemate over the Port Gamble mill site cleanup agreement is jeopardizing $7 million in state funding for land and shoreline acquisition. The Port of Indianola may raise property taxes, depending on an assessment of the Indianola dock. No one has come forward to take the state up on its offer of the old Point No Point fishing resort cabins, for sale for $1 each. A $1 million donation for the proposed new branch library has put the project a stone’s throw away from its $6 million goal.

Those are the top stories in the March edition of the Kingston Community News, available in mailboxes and local stores.
