Whatcom
County Deputy Sheriff Zac Reimer held a community meeting Wednesday,
August 28, to discuss the recent spate of burglaries in Birch Bay,
particularly in Bay Crest, and to explain how to prevent crime by
keeping doors and windows locked tight. John Gargett, president of
the Chamber of Commerce has extensive information on Deputy Reimer's
advice at the Chamber's blog, BirchBayBuzz.com.
What
is of interest to this blog was the turnout. This was the first
opportunity for us to see the inside of the spacious new building of
the Birch Bay Bible Community Church, located at the intersection of Bay
Road and Blaine Road. The sanctuary held 275 chairs. An assistant
pastor, who operated the sound system, counted 215 occupied.
This
is the largest attendance of any meeting we've attended in almost 10
years. More than the meetings for the Growth Management Plan, Design
Criteria, BBWARM Planning, Incorporation Feasibility or
Candidate Nights.
