FAC looks for feedback on last fall schedule

The San Juan County Ferry Advisory Committee will review the fall 2012 ferry schedule and consider suggestions for 2013 changes.

The San Juan County Ferry Advisory Committee will review the fall 2012 ferry schedule and consider suggestions for 2013 changes at its Feb. 14 meeting at 8:30 a.m., at the Legislative Building, 55 Second Street, Friday Harbor.

Comments are welcome at the meeting or prior to the meeting by email to fac@sanjuanco.com. The 2012 fall schedule was in effect from Sept. 23 through Dec. 29.

The fall 2012 schedule had only one sailing to Sidney, compared to two summer sailings, and one less boat. Although additional sailings or stops are often desirable, according to FAC Chairman Jim Corenman, the schedules are tightly packed and resources, both boats and budgets, are limited.
