1 PLAN FOUNDATION
2 Koan xvi Framework Goal II ADD/EDIT: Maintain a rural landscape by smartly growing FOCUSING IN-FILL WITHIN EXISTING urban areas, resorts, and
established rural centers and crossroads. Consider environmental, economic, and fiscal sustainability when investing in
infrastructure and adding new development in rural and urban places.
3 Koan xvi Framework Goal III EDIT: At least add comma, consider different wording. "Grow a robust rural economy with living wage jobs based on resource
lands, manufacturing, and tourist and recreation-oriented services benefiting the county’s clean, quality environment."
4 Koan xvii Framework Goal IV ADD/EDIT: Add "to be" and commas for readability. "Meet projected community needs for housing, commercial, and
industrial growth through appropriate zoning and capital facility investment. TO BE consistent with urban growth and rural
character goals, focus higher densities in urban growth areas and secondarily within resorts, or rural centers, and crossroads
with services. "
5 Koan Vision Our Vision for 2038,
2nd paragraph.
ADD/EDIT: "Low-impact techniques, localized bioremediation, ECO-HOMESTEADING, and
other innovations in housing and industry benefit overall ecosystem vitality ... ."
6 Koan Definitions Eco-homesteading Rules DEFINE: Eco-homesteading rules are a set of to-be-developed local development
regulations that would allow a landowner to take advantage of a to-be-developed set of
ultra-low impact performance-based, not prescriptive, building standards in exchange for
meeting to-be-developed rules. Owners might be required to make a note to title or sign on to other agreements with the county.
7 1 LAND USE
8 Hull 1-14 Aquaculture Resources on Page 1-14.Although the statement that "Jefferson County does not have any designated aquaculture lands..." is true, it also
seems disingenuous. Shoreline mismanagement can negatively impact aquaculture productivity. I suggest this
wording be replaced with the following text: "The County recognizes the importance of responsibly managing land
adjacent to commercial aquaculture resources. Policies and regulations related to aquaculture are addressed in the
County's Shoreline Master Program (JCC18.25.440)."
9 Coker 1-31 LU-P-1.10 delete and replace "adopt" and use"incentivize" standards… Very different costs associated. SIM to LU-P-28.22, CF-P-18.3
10 Coker 1-31 LU-P-1.10 delete "Build Green" and replace with the appropriate "Built Green" or more appropriately "Built Green Washington"
11 Koan 1-31 LU-P-2.3 Move this policy to, or duplicate it in, at least Land Use and Economic Development. Current policy reads, "Policy LU-P-2.3
Support Jefferson County communities with developing or updating local community plans as staffing capacity allows. (New)"
and is only listed under the goal, "Goal LU-G-2 Continue to partner with the Department of Defense for land use planning that
benefits national security, conservation, and economic prosperity in Jefferson County. (New)"
12 Coker 1-33 LU-P-7.1 delete "and federal" to read "state environmental laws."
13 Sircely 1-59 Siting of New Master Planned Resorts In the final sentence, replace the phrase ‘dependent on’ with the words: ‘actively engaged in’.
14 Hull 1-82 ADD: Policy LU-P-15.3 "Encourage responsible stewardship of upland areas in support of Jefferson County Clean Water District programs that enable
sustainable aquaculture."
Aquaculture is included in the Goal and should have an
accompanying policy.
15 Hull 1-83 Policy LU-P-16.3 Possibly delete this Policy. Please see comments.This policy is very specific. What is the purpose of this policy? Is it
really needed?
16 Coker 1-83 , 1-84 LU-P-16.4 & LU-P-16.8 Redundant - two identical policies
17 Koan 1-85 LU-G-18 ADD: "Goal LU-G-18 Provide access to a limited range of services in the County’s Rural Commercial Crossroads for residential
and non-residential users AND OTHER COMPATIBLE USES. (LNG 5.0)

NOTE: This text will be the basis for the wording of a motion.
Comments
18 Koan 1-88 Policy LU-P-20.2 ADD: "Continue the ongoing planning discussions with the City of Port Townsend regarding infrastructure and boundaries of
the Glen Cove Light Industrial/Commercial District. CONSIDER VIABILITY OF LARGE ON-SITE SEWAGE SYSTEM (LOSS) OR
SIMILAR FOR GLEN COVE IF AGREEMENT WITH CITY OF PORT TOWNSEND TO EXTEND SEWER INTO THE GLEN COVE CANNOT
BE REACHED IN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME. (New)" Would consider other wording than "reasonable amount of time"
but want to convey "soon" rather than letting this long-standing issue languish as it has for so long.
19 Coker 1-109 LU-P-28.12 define "tiny homes" - wheels, no foundation, trailer. A tiny home is currently allowed a tiny home on wheels is not.
20 Hull 1-110 Policy LU-P-28.19 Delete second sentence. Policy should read: "Maximize opportunities to incorporate urban home and community gardens in
new development."
Community gardens such as P-Patches are a poor substitute for
parks where people can go for walks. Open spaces should be open
for all to enjoy and not obstructed by garden patches.
21 Coker 1-116 LU-P-32.1 &32.2 Are these new items or from old doc?
22 2 NATURAL RESOURCES
23 Sircely 2-11 Agricultural Lands description The Agricultural Lands description includes a reference to WAC 365-190-050 — in the second bullet point, I recommend
deleting the words ‘such as livestock grazing’ because it is a narrow example of ways to improve and thereby profit from
potential agricultural lands that initially exhibit poor soils. Also, in the same paragraph, ‘well suited’ could probably use a
hyphen.
24 Hull 2-23 Policy NR-P-8.7 Delete Policy This policy is not needed since agriculture is already allowed in any
zone. This is a right-to-farm county
25 Coker 2-23 NR-P-8.7 Delete "consider collaborations with" and replace with "Collaborate with partners such as …" Do it, don’t just consider.
26 Sircely 2-24 NR-P-8.10 I recommend adding a phrase“Consider allowing tools to support current and new generation farmers, such as homestead
parcels for resource and rural lands, and allow subdivision of parcels at smaller lot sizes where the land will solely be used for
farming in perpetuity with no residential uses allowed through a covenant or similar instrument, except for dwellings which
are integrated into a long-range farm plan.” NOTE: My intention is not to dissuade any efforts to prevent residential
pressures on agricultural lands. Nonetheless, sometimes it is counterintuitive to designate farming as a priority without
allowing appropriate housing and basic farm facilities to support such activity. Some farming practices require a 24-hour sense
of awareness, especially with animals present. Some more intensive vegetable farms or integrated livestock operations can
generate higher net incomes on smaller parcels, and they often require heightened degrees of vigilance.
27 Coker 2-24 NR-P-8.10 Delete "no residential and replace with "restricted residential"
28 Hull 2-24 Policy NR-P-8.10 Delete last part of policy text. Policy should read: "Consider allowing tools to support current and new generation farmers,
such as homestead parcels for resourceand rural lands."
Agricultural land should not be subdivided into smaller lot sizes.
Note that Finn Hill Farm at 50acres was too small to thrive as a food
producer until alcohol product was added. Once parcels are cut into
uneconomic fragments, they are very difficult to reassemble into a
commercially successful farm.
29 Koan 2-24; 4-12 NR-G-10; OS-G-6 MOVE GOALS: DON'T FIT HERE. "Ensure responsive, fair and efficient permit processing. (New)
▶ Policy NR-P-10.1 Develop and maintain implementing regulations and internal policies that ensure that development
applications are processed in a timely, fair, and predictable manner. (New)
▶ Policy NR-P-10.2 Ensure that permit review and requests for additional information are fair, consistent and balanced with the
needs of the applicant and the public interest at large. (New)"
These seem like good overarching goals but don't have anything to do with Openspace/Parks specifically. SHOULD BE UNDER
LANDUSE AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT.

Comments
30 3 HOUSING
31 Sircely 3-12 3.3 Housing Plan Two comments: 1) I believe the bullet point above was intended to say either: “Creating additional housing opportunities MAY
include:” or “Creating additional housing opportunities includes:” and 2) I encourage the commission to consider adding an
additional bullet-point on the subject of affordable housing strategies: ADD: “Explore methods for establishing conditional
performance standards that could enable higher-density dwelling arrangements to achieve reduced levels of resource use and
reduced adverse ecological impacts relative to those associated with conventional development.”
32 Coker 3-14 HS-P-2.5 add community land trust (CLT) to "… for manufacturred home, RV parks and community land trusts to increase…"
33 Koan 3-14 HS-P-2.2 ADD/EDIT: "Encourage and support greater opportunity for the development of innovative housing
types to increase the inventory of affordable housing throughout the county. Work cooperatively
with public and private housing experts on community redevelopment strategies, residential mixed-
use development, single and multifamily attached housing, accessory dwelling units, duplexes,
triplexes, apartment houses, mixed-use, senior, and multi-care facilities, community housing, farm
worker housing, ECO-HOMESTEADING RULES, tiny homes, etc. Encourage development patterns
such as clustering in Rural Village Centers and Urban Growth Areas, provided adequate
infrastructure and services are in place. (HSP 2.7)"
34 Koan 3-15 HS-P-2.6 ADD: "Consider development standards that would provide bonus densities in return for
providing a percentage of low or moderate-income housing units for multi-unit residences in the future Irondale/Port Hadlock Urban Growth Area. (New)"
35 Coker 3-16 HS-P-3.3 Must be sure to define use of "affordable housing" used liberally throughout doc. all incomes/workforce
36
37 4 OPEN SPACE, PARKS & RECREATION, HISTORIC & CULTURAL PRESERVATION
38 Koan 4-8 OS-P-1.1 ADD/EDIT: Policy OS-P-1.1 Work collaboratively with LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, CITIZEN GROUPS, AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS
public and private agencies such as the Washington State Department of Natural Resources, the City of Port Townsend, the
Jefferson County Conservation Futures Program, the Jefferson Land Trust, the North Olympic Salmon Coalition, the NW
Watershed Institute, and Tribes, THE PENINSULA TRAILS COALITION, AND OTHER CITIZEN GROUPS AND INDIVIDUAL
VOLUNTEERS to develop a financially sustainable, high quality, diversified open space system, INCLUDING TRAIL NETWORK
LINKAGES, that preserves and enhances significant environmental resources and features. (New)
39 Koan 4-9 OS-P-1.5 ADD: "Promote open space network linkages throughout
the county that connect Urban Areas, Rural Centers, schools, parks,
or recreation sites, and supports tourism by bicycle, HORSE, or foot. (OSP 2.2)"
40 Koan 4-9 OS-P-2.1 ADD: "Create a comprehensive system of multipurpose NON-MOTORIZED offroad
trails using public as well as cooperating private properties
where appropriate, as well as a comprehensive system of on-roadbicycle routes for commuter, recreational, and touring enthusiastsusing scenic, collector, and local road rights-of-way, that linkresidential neighborhoods to County facilities. (New)"
41 Koan 4-11 OS-P-4.8 ADD/EDIT: "Promote cooperative efforts, joint project development, and long-range planning with other public agencies, Tribes, and the private sector, AND CITIZEN GROUPS AND VOLUNTEERS to create and maintain open space, parks, and recreational areas. (OSP 4.10)"

42 Hull 4-12 Goal OS-G-6 This Goal and associated Policies should be deleted.This Goal and associated Policies are not related to Parks and
Recreation. Streamlining and fairness of land use review procedures
and processes is already part of Policies ED-P-4.1,2,3 in the Economic
Development section.
43 5 ENVIRONMENT
44 Giske Page 5-12 Add the following to "Balance Environmental Protection with Other Community Needs" on Page 5-12: "The commercial use of
our air, water and land natural resources must be balanced with the protection of human and wildlife needs for freedom of
movement, outdoor recreation, and a healthy food chain."
45 Coker 5-25 EN-P-7.2 &7.3 Combine, seems somewhat redundant "Evaluate all options and consider different scenarios ..."

50 Coker 5-29 En-P-12.8 delete "…have the potential to…" to read "…in the floodplain that adversely…" "potential" is too broad
51 Koan 5-30 EN-P-15.2 ADD/EDIT. Land use decisions should recognize the importance of protection and enhancement of fish and wildlife habitat required for recovery of state- and federally-listed threatened and endangered species, and those species proposed for listing, AND OTHER SENSITIVE SPECIES under the Federal Endangered Species Act. (ENP 12.2)
52 Hull 5-31 EN-P-15.7 & EN-P-15.8 I would like an opinion from Donna Frostholm regarding these policies.I do not fully understand the implications of these policies.
53 Giske page 5-31 EN-P-15.X Add the following policy to "Fish & Wildlife Habitat" at the middle of page 5-31:
Policy EN-P-15.X Manage the use of materials deployed commercially within our water resources to ensure toxic particles are
not released into the food chain and that crop protective devices such as nets do not interfere with the normal movement of
native fish, shellfish and wildlife living within our lakes, streams and marine waters. (New)

Fish and Wildlife Habitat Protection
Prohibit the use of unattended plastic substances that remain in the water without continuous human control.
Prohibit the use of unattended nets that remain in the water without continuous human control.
Ø Ensures that toxic particles are not released into the aquatic environment and thus into the related food chain while
embedded in the abrasive and constantly moving sand (Note: approx. 40,000 10” long 4” diameter PVC tubes per acre are
used in geoduck farming which equates to about 150,000 to 200,000 square feet of PVC surface area per acre being constantly abraded by the sand releasing micro PVC particles into the surrounding sand, water and related food chain)
- Ensures that toxic particles cannot be released into the food chain when plastic tubes are unseated and buffeted against the
rocks during storms.
- Ensures that native wildlife, birds, fish, shellfish and human beings do not get entangled in unattended nets.
- Ensures that plastic tubes and nets do not get released into surrounding marine waters where the cost of retrieving them is
prohibitive.
- Updates regulations to protect fish and wildlife and responds to scientific evidence that particles of plastic are dangerous to
our food chain.

motorized vehicle. However, bicycle and pedestrian circulation are important transportation modes that are used by county
residents. REGIONAL NON-MOTORIZED MULTIPURPOSE TRAILS AND A HIGHLY VALUED AMENITY GREATLY DESIRED BY THE
PUBLIC, AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF ADDITIONAL TRAILS TO MEET DEMAND IS A HIGH PRIORITY FOR TRANSPORTATION
PLANNING."
59 Koan 6-19 TR-P-3.1 ADD/EDIT: "Using established standards, promote coordinated and safe bicycle, equestrian, and pedestrian way
improvements in accordance with the Non-motorized Transportation and Recreational Trails Plan, and in coordination with

10 Hull 1-2 Land Use Typologies on page 1-2 The picture next to "Rural Areas" does not match the text. Rural areas are defined in the text as "not

designations must adopt measures to minimize and contain the existing areas or uses of more intensive rural

show the interior of the area rather than the street view image apparently taken from the highway.
