Commi"sioner 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:
. The Climate Action Plan is unnecessary as prehistoric times had a higher level of CQ2 and the
world did not self destruct; water vapor is a high percentage of climate change.
. A citizen urged the Board to take action on a proposed noise ordinance and according to policy
the County Administrator does not have control over proposed legislative items.
. A citizen stated he does not believe the County needs a noise ordinance and hopes the Board is
not supporting the expansion of the Olympic National Park.
. The House of Representatives will not allow unemployment extensions anymore which will
cause riots in most cities.
. Jefferson County cannot change global warming and money spent on it would be better used for
social services to help families in need.
