PUBLIC INVITATION
Port Townsend Golf Course and Mountain View Commons Concept Planning Effort
PORT TOWNSEND, Washington —The City of Port Townsend will host Public Open House #3 for the Port
Townsend Golf Course and Mountain View Commons Concept Planning Effort on Thursday, June 22nd
from 5:00-7:00 P.M at the Fort Worden Commons, 210 Battery Way, Port Townsend WA 98368. This
meeting will summarize public feedback received to date, share the final two design concepts, and host
a community conversation and discussion about priorities and desired next steps. This will be the final
Open House of the concept planning effort. An online version of the Open House will be held Monday,
June 26th from 4:00-5:30 pm.
This planning effort began in early 2020 following the development of the PROS (Parks, Recreation and
Open Space) Plan which showed community's desire to explore different uses for the golf course
property owned by the City. In November 2020, City Council unanimously directed staff to engage the
community to explore the feasibility of alternate uses, in addition to continued use for golf. Given the
proximity of the Mountain View Commons Campus, it is the City's interest to explore complementary
uses and plan for this site as well.
