interested citizens were present for this
hearing. Testimony was taken on nine
proposed amendments. All but one of the
amendments were requests to rezone
acreage. This includes:
•a 16.47 acre parcel in the Dabob
Valley near Quilcene to change the
Rural Residential density,
•a 20 acre parcel on the west side of
the Coyle Peninsula to change the
Rural Residential density,
•a 40 acre parcel near Shine on the

approximately 158 acres near Shine
on the north side of SR 104 from

•and a 90 acre site on the Coyle
Peninsula from Commercial
Forestland to Rural Residential.
There is also one amendment that proposes
Comprehensive Plan “housekeeping issues”
involving map
anomalies, and text and
table corrections. This
hearing is being held
because the Planning
Commission and the
staff differed on many of
their recommendations
to approve or deny the
amendments. The
public comment period
was closed at the end of the hearing. The
Board has scheduled 2 hours at their
November 21 meeting for deliberations and a
possible decision on the amendments.
