SUMMARY OF KEY FUNDING/SERVICE ISSUES:
Collaboration with the City of Port Townsend and other partner agencies has created a series of educational opportunities for County residents to manage yard debris on-site
rather than using the City/County managed disposal site. This has decreased operating costs for both the City and County and effected a considerable reduction in vehicle trips
thereby curbing vehicle emissions.
