reviewed the performance measures for prevention programs in the Health and Human Services Department.
Jeff Soder reviewed how the County's Prevention Services Plan was developed as well as data on risk factors
froml998 and 2000. Chairman Huntingford asked how the services will be different in the future? Jeff
Soder answered that there will be more partners at the table to plan prevention activities and there will be
more coordination between the parties who provide prevention programs. A mentor program is being
discussed to link a healthy adult with a child that needs help. Another possible program is an "asset map" to
detail what services and programs are available for children of different ages. Chairman Huntingford asked
about a program for parents? Jeff Soder replied that they are looking at ways to provide programs that
strengthen the whole family in conjunction with programs provided for children.
PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD: One person was present to make the following comments:
Why wasn't the Tri Area Community Club allowed to participate in the planning process when they were
originally asked to participate ?; a comment about a street vacation impacting the possible use of a section of
property for a trail; the Tri Area Community Club has asked Ted Gage of the State Department of
Community Development to present a "short course" on planning at a meeting scheduled in June and the
County has since asked Mr. Gage not to come to this meeting (Charles Saddler reported that he was asked
to come at a later time when the County's planning process for the Tri Area is underway); a question will be
submitted to the Attorney General about the County requesting that Ted Gage not attend this planning
meeting; why can't the Tri Area community vote on whether they want to be a small town ?; and a request
that the County give the Tri Area community a time line for the planning process including when the
community will be included in this process?

HEARING NOTICE re: Proposed Ordinance Establishing An Assessment System for the
Port Ludlow Drainage District; Hearing Scheduled for Tuesday, July 24, 2001 at 7.30 p. m. at the Port
Ludlow Beach Club, Port Ludlow: Jim Pearson, Public Works Department, reported that the Department
will be sending a letter to each property owner in the District that explains the assessment system for the Port
Ludlow Drainage District. The system is based on apportioning a basic assessment of $1,000. Thirty percent
of the assessment is based on the amount of property a person owns in the District and the remaining 70% of
the assessment is based on the proportion of impervious surface on the property.
Commissioner Titterness stated that he doesn't like using $1,000 as an example because the property owners
may believe that their assessment is that amount. Jim Pearson explained that he doesn't want the property
owners to think the assessment is based on assessed valuation like property taxes. The Board members
agreed that the notice to property owners needs to explain that the District budget will set the total amount
to be collected through the assessment. They directed that the wording in Section 3 be changed to indicate
that the District budget will be more than $1,000 and so their assessment will be more.
Jim Pearson explained that there are many green belt areas in Port Ludlow that will never be developed and
these areas, along with County road rights -of -way, will be exempt from this assessment. Commissioner
Titterness moved to approve the hearing notice with the changes as discussed. Commissioner Wojt seconded
the motion which carried by a unanimous vote.
Authorizing the Chief Administrative Official to Submit a CDBG Grant Application to
OCD and Certifying Compliance with State and Federal Laws and Specific Program Requirements: This
resolution will allow Charles Saddler to sign a grant application that would provide funding for lead based
paint assessments and clean up for residences and buildings in Jefferson and Clallam counties. Commissioner
Wojt moved to approve RESOLUTION NO. 53 -01 authorizing the County Administrator to submit the
CDBG Grant Application to OCD and certifying compliance with State and Federal laws and specific
program requirements. Commissioner Titterness seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote.
