PORT ANGELES – City officials are studying the idea of selling the City Light building to Family Medicine of Port Angeles and relocating the city’s electric utility to an as-yet undetermined location.
City Manager Mark Madsen and Dr. Bill Hennessey presented the idea to the city’s Utility Advisory Committee at its Tuesday meeting, where it received a cautious endorsement pending more information.
“It’s a great opportunity for downtown but it’s a financial decision. The benefits are more than just the money, but I’d like to see the nuts and bolts of it,” said City Councilman Grant Munro.
Madsen said he was presenting the idea to the committee because it affected the city’s electric utility.
