PEG Fundraiser

Pet Emergency Group, a nonprofit supporting after hours emergency veterinarian care on the Olympic Peninsula, is hosting Flapjacks Fundraiser, a pancake breakfast event, from 8-10 a.m. on Saturday, April 11 at Applebee’s, 130 River Road in Sequim.

Attendees will receive pancakes, bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs, coffee, and juice. Everyone is encouraged to bring family and friends to help raise money for the cause.

Tickets are $12 at the door or online at petemergencygroup.org. All proceeds go to Pet Emergency Group, a volunteer-run nonprofit formed by the belief that the community should have access to after-hours emergency pet care.

City seeks members

The City of Sequim seeks three members to be appointed by Mayor Rachel Anderson and approved by the city council for the City Council Salary Commission. The Commission will review the salaries of individual city council members, including the mayor and deputy mayor, and file any salary changes with the city clerk.

The previous commission was appointed in 2022, and the salary schedule approved by that commission has expired.

The commission will meet on an as-needed basis. All members must have lived within the city limits for a minimum of six months before being appointed to the commission. Terms are for two years, and commission members can serve two terms.

Applications are available at the Civic Center, located at 152 W. Cedar St., and online at sequimwa.gov/214/City-Advisory-Bodies. The positions are open until filled.

For more information, contact City Clerk Heather Robley at 360-681-3428 or email clerk@sequimwa.gov.
