Carol Hasse, an integral leader in Jefferson County’s flourishing maritime culture and economy for more than 40 years, is seeking reelection as Port Commissioner for a second four-year term. Hasse points to Port progress during her first term, and she is eager to serve for another four years to make use of the experience she has gained and the relationships she has developed. 

 

“We’ve improved infrastructure and expanded facilities, and at the same time protected delicate local ecosystems. More projects are planned, and the funding is in place. It would be an honor to continue to serve.”

The Port’s impact on the region’s economy is enormous; today the marine trades support fully one in five jobs in Jefferson County. And for nearly half a century, Hasse has been a key contributor to the renaissance of Port Townsend’s world-class, working water front and its international renown as a creative center of maritime expertise and education.
