Attention Mr. Stewart:
Over four years in the making, citizens, stakeholders and county staff, have worked
diligently (for personal agendas)to update Jefferson County SMP that meets the community's (
what community)needs while based on sound peer-reviewed (a joke)science that supports the
policies and decisions. Citizen (Grant Reccipiants)involvement and community outreach was
outstanding and the Department of Community Development (DCD) provided multiple opportunities
for involvement over a four year period, including several direct mailings to shoreline
property owners. No one in my family have EVER RECEVED a notice oof this mess) The Board of
County Commissioners took extra time to analyze every piece (Selectivly)of testimony and to
incorporate their ideas, where appropriate. As a result, the updated SMP is a well balanced
approach to meet needs of both property owners (HOW MANY O THE COUNTY STAFF OWN SHORLINE
PROPERT??)and Puget Sound?s ecosystem.
Specific elements of the updated SMP that I DO NOTsupport include: AGAIN I DO NOT SUPPORT
THIS!!!!! We will sue to stop this.
My Family came here in 1910 and took care of the land. We have been taxed for the best use
of our property for over 100 years!!!! years. Now we must surrender to this LAND GRAB.
1) 150 foot buffers (except in Port Townsend)which were supported by significant testimony
(which you do not listen to)at all meetings and hearings, are supported in the current
science as a compromise of buffer widths necessary to protect shoreline functions.
2) Provides for flexible buffer modification(hire an attorney) where modifications are
appropriate (i.e., where there is no net loss to shoreline functions)
3) Clear language and policies make it easier for citizens to understand the SMP
4) Clear regulations provides land use consistency and improves property values
5) Prohibits commercial net pen farming
6) Minimizes the need for shoreline armoring by encouraging non-structural remedies
At this time I urge you to DO NOT adopt the locally approved and updated Jefferson County
SMP as it is presented to you.
I urge all citizens of Jefferson County to join in the various LAW SUITS.
If this is a typical DOE meeting you will never read or consider ANY of the Publics Coments
or Information. Remember you always complain about funding and Staff shortfalls. My many
trips to the Crystal Palace has shown me that DOE Is out of control.
I am sure you will not read any letter against the MSP. But then why would you respond.
Thank God Jay Manning is gone from DOE, but noe he is attempting to be the NEW
GOV.........Another PERSONAL AGNDA PERSON aka WEC
Mr. Stewart how much land will you lose????
