The Jefferson County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office has been prosecuting misdemeanors committed by adults and traffic infractions in the city of Port Townsend without compensation on an interim basis until the city found a replacement for Chris Ashcraft, former city attorney, who is now the chief criminal deputy in the Prosecuting Attorney’s Office.
The city and prosecuting attorney want to continue the arrangement on a permanent basis through a three-year contract in which the city would pay a base amount of $70,000 for up to 275 cases and a fee of $500 for each case after that.
The City Council approved the agreement on April 15.
