Family's eviction from Bremerton's marina raises fear among liveaboards
BREMERTON — Retirement looks different for Tom and Jerri Bagley. While they do live on a boat — a Bayliner that stretches 50-feet and bobs in its slip along dock B of the Bremerton Marina — the couple keeps busy raising their two grandchildren. Weekday mornings are spent driving the kids to Kitsap Lake Elementary, where the two receive specialized care and counseling for their behavioral health needs. Once Tom brings them home, it’s time for homework in the vessel's cozy shared room, known as a salon to boaters, which is lined with two couches next to a small galley just below the boat's pilot house. And then it's bedtime. Tom sleeps in one state room while Jerri sleeps in the other — one with each grandchild, because the children can’t sleep alone, according to Jerri. “My granddaughter will not go to sleep without holding my hand,” she said. This routine — established after the couple became legal guardians of their grandchildren in November 2025 — is now in jeopardy. An eviction notice from the Port of Bremerton’s marina manager, received this fall with a Nov. 30 deadline, threatens the family with uncertainty about what's next. While they'd still have

Bangor’s next half century deserves meaningful public scrutiny | Opinion
For communities surrounding Naval Base Kitsap-Bangor, the arrival of Columbia-class submarines is more than a Navy modernization story. It means another half century of nuclear-weapons operations on Hood Canal — and decisions whose environmental and safety consequences deserve close public scrutiny. The Kitsap Sun’s June 1 article, “Navy releases documents on homeporting Columbia-class subs at Bangor”, announced the Navy’s plans to prepare Bangor for up to eight Columbia-class ballistic-missile submarines. It also explained how readers could review the draft environmental assessment and submit comments before the June 25 deadline. The Navy’s Columbia-class Environmental Assessment (EA) website declared: “Submitting substantive and concise public comments is one of the most important aspects of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process.” However, records recently released through the Freedom of Information Act raise questions about the Navy’s commitment to public participation. According to Navy records, 240 comments were submitted from eleven states and Washington, D.C. Approximately 80 comments requested a 30-day extension of the comment period to allow a more careful review of the program. More than 60 comments asked for a formal hearing in Seattle. On June 16, U.S. Fleet Forces Command decided against extending the comment period. Representative Pramila Jayapal’s office contacted
