There is no urgency that benefits Bainbridge to rush off to Poulsbo when there are considerable empty structures and office space that could meet the criteria right here on Bainbridge (including our own city hall and council chambers).

By their own admission, the council has not studied the local options since 2006 when the economic conditions of Bainbridge were completely different.

Why would our council make it harder on Bainbridge residents by moving of the municipal court to another community without taking a fresh look at local options first? I ask only that they look here as well.
