Greetings Members of the Jefferson County Planning Commission,
Thank you for your service to our community.
As you can see from the attachment here, the proposed commercial shooting facility is exactly adjacent to Tarboo Lake.
No sane individual would allow an enormous weapons training facility so close to a pristine watershed, wildlife corridor and
salmon restoration site. Please do away with any fears of lawsuits and do the right thing.
To be consistent with the Jefferson county comprehensive plan, the designation for gun ranges MUST be kept for only “small-scale
recreation and tourist uses”.
And “When a development regulation is inconsistent with a Comp Plan, the development regulation is UNLAWFUL.”
(according to Bricklin and Newman, land use attorneys, Re: "Amendment to Title 18 Relating to Shooting Facilities” emphasis
added).
I urge you to choose the most lawful and common sense approach is to REJECT the staff’s proposed Title 18 ordinance which
leaves the whole county open to commercial shooting facilities of unlimited size and intensity.
The land use attorneys of TRC have already proposed a sound plan that can be followed and would withstand legal challenge. It is
a “no brainer” to follow the TRC recommendations which are based on already legally sound and working ordinance in Kitsap
county.
Respectfully,
Sonia Story
