HISTORY re: Draft Ordinance on Commercial Shooting Facilities and Hearing
Timeline: Information from a portion of the Agenda Request form for this Special Meeting states the
following:
"On September 4, 2018, the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC): 1) Approved a Hearing Notice
for holding a public hearing on the draft ordinance at 6:3 Op. m. on Monday, September 24, 2018; 2)
Established a period of September 12, 2019 through 4:30p. m. September 28, 2018 during which the
public could submit written testimony; and 3) Set an additional information session on the draft
ordinance for September 10, 2018.
Staff sent the hearing notice to the Leader Newspaper on September 6, 2018 for publication on
September 12 and 19, 2018. An additional information session on the draft ordinance was held on
September 10, 2018.
On Friday, September 14, 2018, staff discovered that the Leader Newspaper failed to publish timely
notice of the hearing, making it impossible to satisfy the notice requirements for the September 24, 2018
hearing. Accordingly, a new hearing date and an extension of the public comment period was required.
Therefore, on Monday, September 17, 2018, the BOCC approved a Hearing Notice for 6:30 P.m. on
Monday, October 1, 2018 and extended the public comment period to 4:30p. m. October S, 2018.
On October 1, 2018, the County started a public hearing that attracted approximately 330 citizens. The
large turnout tested the capacity of the County Courthouse, so citizens were staged throughout the
County Courthouse and on the apron outside, with sound systems broadcasting the proceedings
everywhere that people waited for their turn to speak. Everyone who waited to speak eventually got to
speak at the hearing. However, we are aware that some people who came to the Courthouse chose to
leave before they could speak. Concerns were raised by some citizens near the end of the hearing about
the capacity of the venue and its impact on the citizens who came to the hearing, and whether the
County's efforts to maximize and accommodate public participation were insufficient under the
Washington Open Public Meetings Act (OPMA).
Commissioners Special Meeting Minutes of October 24, 2018
DRAFT
Although the County believed the October 1, 2018 meeting allowed everyone to attend under the OPMA,
if the hearing on the evening of October I" may have violated the OPAIA, the remedy under the law
would be a declaration that the Commissioners' action to take public testimony on October 1st was null
and void, and any subsequent legislative action that relied on that hearing would also be null and void.
To avoid this, on October 8, 2018 the BOCC approved a hearing notice for holding a new public
hearing regarding the ordinance on October 24, 2018, and passed a motion to void the oral and written
testimony submitted at 6:3 Op. m. or later on October 1St.
At the time of the October 1st attempted hearing, the period for submitting written comments extended to
October S, 2018 and written comments could be submitted by citizens any time before then. Thus, on
October 19, 2018, the County Administrator submitted a memo placing all written comments in the
possession of County stafffrom the evening of October 1, 2018 into the Hearing Record for the October
24th public hearing. So while expunged as part of an October I" hearing record, the October Is' written
comments are part of the October 24`h hearing record. In addition, anyone, including people who
previously spoke or turned in written comments on the evening of October 1, 2018, may provide oral
and written testimony for the new Public Hearing scheduled for October 24th "
PUBLIC HEARING re: Draft Ordinance on Commercial Shooting Facilities in
Unincorporated Areas of Jefferson County: Chair Sullivan outlined the timeline of the proposed
ordinance and explained the procedures for the public hearing. He stated that written testimony will be
accepted through October 26, 2018 at 4:30 p.m.
PRESENTATION: Chief Civil Deputy Prosecuting Attorney (DPA) Philip Hunsucker
gave a presentation in which he explained the history and purpose of the moratorium, provided an
overview of the Commercial Shooting Facilities Review Committee process, and explained the proposed
ordinance in detail.
Chair Sullivan opened the hearing for public testimony. The following individuals gave their testimony:
Lili Story, Dan Newland, James Baird, Jay Towne, Mike Holm, Chuck Ervin, Neil Morgan (cannot
