Port Townsend City Attorney John Watts met with Peggy Ann Bierbaum, attorney for the Port Townsend Carousel Association, on Monday afternoon to discuss the association’s use of a $10,000 lodging tax grant.
March 31 was the deadline for the association to reimburse Port Townsend for the bed tax funds spent on a carousel.
City Manager David Timmons says the association broke state law by purchasing a second carousel, rather than building a pavilion for an existing carousel as set out in the grant agreement.
