The proposed project would create a partnership between the YMCA, City of Port Townsend, Port Townsend School District, Hospital District and Jefferson County to form a Community Recovery Center at Mountain View Commons. The proponents of the project are hoping to obtain a Partnership Agreement to formalize the organizations' intent to work collaboratively and layout the roles of each organization. Ms. O'Neil stated that a feasibility study has been done and it was determined that Mountain View Commons is the best location for such a recovery center.
