text: You may want to ask yourself, does Whidbey really need the extra bureaucracy (and the public costs that go with it) to have its two port districts?
  It seems most of their new jurisdiction is in areas that port districts aren't normally associated with. It seems the ports of South Whidbey and Coupeville are merely dumping grounds for any areas the County Commission doesn't want to deal with anymore.
  Whether or not it involves waterfront seems irrelevant.
