On May 16, 1977, Mr. Rogers filed a short plat. Approximately ten acres just

division is subject to. -review under the long plat requirements of the Jefferson
County Subdivision Ordinance.
A plat report (copy attached to official minutes) was distributed to members for
their review. Two conditions were added by the Health Department to their
recommendation of approval. As stated in their letter of August 22, 1978, the
conditions read "a deep trench drainfield shall be required on Lot 2 (5-6 feet)"
and "approval of this subdivision does not constitute approval of each lot for
on -site sewage disposal systems; approval of each site will be conditional on
building plot plans, contours, and soils on individual lots . "
The developer, Lincoln Rogers, was present to answer member's questions.
Finis Stevens moved to recommend to the County Commissioners they find the
preliminary plat is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan and they accept
it subject to department recommendations as amended. Dorithe Harrington seconded
the motion. Upon a vote it carried with unanimous approval.
B. Kala Point No. 5, #K-78: David Goldsmith explained, this proposed plat of

report (copy attached to official minutes), were reviewed.

IV. PETITIONS FOR VACATIONS OF COUNTY ROADS
A. Roy Mills: Carol Saari reported on the request for the vacation of a portion
of the old located State Highway 101 lying outside of the present right-of-way of
State Highway 101, north of Black Point.
Findings of the proposed vacation were reviewed by members.
A letter by Ronald and Emily Herod, dated August 28, 1978, was read,, It said,
as adjacent property owners and users of that portion of the proposed vacated
road, they objected to the requezot because it would create a hardship on their
having adequate access.
The petitioner, Roy Mills, explained he wished to create a private rather than
public use road for residents of Cedar Cove Short Plat, who would maintain
the road.
Finis Stevens moved to recommend to the County Commissioners they find that
(1) the vacation of the subject portion of County Road No. 64 will not correct the
applicant's problem; (2) the road width of County Road No. 64 is recorded in Ceder
Cove Short Plat (August 1977) and should be adhered to; and (3) the County
Department of Public Works should be directed to recognize the dimensions of .this
previously recorded road.
B . Florence E . McDonald: Carol Saari reviewed the petition to vacate a portion
of a right-of-way lying west of the East Quilcene Road. She explained, because
some of the signatures on the petition cannot be identified as County residents
and some are relatives of the applicant, the petition is not in order. Further, if
the petition were approved, an easement to the property west of the proposed
vacation would have to be required, otherwise that property would be ianc -locked.
TArl Randolph abstained from acting on the petition due to a possible conflict of
interest.
Eva Taylor moved to recommend to the County Commissioners the request be denied
because they petition is inadequate and because approval of the request would
create a land -locked piece of property. Finis Stevens seconded the motion.
Upon a vote it carried unanimously.
C . Tefferson County: Carol Saari explained, it is the intent of the County to
vacate a portion of the unused portion of Old County Road No. 70, in the vicinity
of the Brinnon flats area.
