Inflatable “Bubble” Field House for Port Angeles

A “bubble” field house (not to be confused with the Bubble Boy) has been awarded to the Clallam County YMCA. People will be able to play soccer and tennis indoors year-around regardless of the weather.

This is nice, but should this be a top priority for Port Angeles? In today’s PDN, a letter to the editor reminds us that Port Angeles voters shot down the high-tech bells-and-whistles YMCA pool, and that the city already has enough trouble maintaining the William Shore Memorial Pool.

The Port Angeles City Council has already voted unanimously in favor of this project. But three of those council members are no longer on the City Council. How will their replacements vote?

Should the public have a say in all of this? What do you think?
