Whatcom Watch has been covering the meetings of local elected officials for 23 years. We began reporting Bellingham City Council and Whatcom County Council votes in 1999 and the Port of Bellingham Commissioner votes in 2000. We’re committed to continuing to report on votes; we feel they’re a valuable contribution to our community — and subscribers affirmed in a recent survey that the votes are valuable to them.
Our coverage was uneven during the first three years, but has been comprehensive over the past 20 years. We’ve covered a total of 1,571 meetings: 598 were city meetings, 475 were county meetings and 426 were port meetings. If you have any questions, contact Bill McCallum at bill@whatcomwatch.org or 360-734-6007.
