Week of March 28, 2011
Chairman John Austin called the meeting to order at the appointed time in the presence of
Commissioner David Sullivan and Commissioner Phil Johnson.
PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD: The following comments were made by citizens in
attendance at the meeting and reflect their personal opinions:
A neighbor of the Sportsmen's Club shooting range asked that the Board deny the Sportsmen's
Club request to expand their site due to lead contamination polluting the water and the possibility
of increased noise;
A man stated that the Sportsmen's Club has been told by the EPA that there is no lead
contamination of water from the shooting range. There is noise from other shooting that goes on
in the Hidden Trails Gravel Pit which is blamed on the Sportsmen's Club:
The expansion of the Sportsmen's Club facility has been dclayed because of complaints made by
one citizen. There has been a barrage of innuendo about lead in the water caused by the shooting
range that has not been proven and the person making the complaints should providc water
samples from his well if he is concerned;
. The management of the Sportsmen's Club has taken soil samples and no lead contamination has
been found;
The Brinnon Chamber of Commerce and othcr community groups have been asking the County
to issue an RFP for the operation of the Brinnon Motcl;
. Lcad is virtually chcmically inert and will not cause a problem;
The County needs to license busincsses so that people that move in know what is located in the
area before they move. There needs to be areas in the County designated for citizens to shoot
guns;
. There is an agreement for an outside person to take minutes for the Board of Health and the
County should go out and try to get a better price even though the bid process is not required.
Why can't an existing staff person do the minutes for the Board of Health? In December of 2009
the County Administrator developed a new policy for the handling of the correspondence that
was included in the public meeting packet and all letters sent to the JEFFBOCC e-mail address
were to be included. There are letters of intcrest for people seeking to scrve on Advisory Boards
and thcse letters arc not included which is wrong.
APPROVAL AND ADOPTION OF THE COl'lSENT AGENDA:
Commissioner Sullivan moved to approval all of the items as presented. Commissioner Johnson
seconded the motion whieh carried by a unanimous vote.
