A 36 year veteran of the commission driven Real Estate industry laments she has not seen the crises that we have. Nor have I in 29 years on this rock and still DO NOT! 

What appears to resemble a "Pied Piper developer of unknown area project quality and record knocking on Oak Harbor's door offering a solution to a problem the community did not know it had. Oh I'm wrong there was the local commission driven real estate industry that knew about a crises. Let me apologize for that oversite but I believe that crises was then driven by a mythical stampede of incoming uniformed Navel personnel that has yet to materialize. An accompanying news article suggests that we will not experience the excitement of a Naval personnel stampede any time soon. Wa la the appearance of a "Pied Piper" and a 1500 affordable housing project. 

Any reason to question? Or should we make a fire call run for it without questioning?
