HEARING re:Proposed Budget Appropriations and Extensions; Various County Funds:
Allen Sartin asked some of the departments that had submitted requests to clarify their backup documents.
He stated that it has been the County's practice not to identify revenues as part of this process. He would
like to see the revenues listed that are associated with the requests, such as the timber funds that were
deposited into the General Fund and then transferred out. This information would show that the impact on
the General Fund is neutral.
Chairman Titterness opened the public hearing. Hearing no comments for or against the proposed budget
appropriations and extensions, he closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Huntingford moved to approve RESOLUTION NO. 95-03, budget extensions and
appropriations for various County departments. Commissioner Rodgers seconded the motion which carried
by a unanimous vote.

Pamela Roberts, 4-H Coordinator re: 4-H Program Update: Pamela Roberts explained that
the 4-H program is a comprehensive leadership program for Jefferson County youth. An important part of
the 4-H program is the afterschool program in Quilcene and Brinnon which the County helps to fund. She is
working to build the organization by recruiting more adult leaders who like working with youths or have a
hobby that they would like to share. There are 30 clubs in the County with over 220 youth members and 65
adult leaders. 4-H builds creativity, disciple, leadership skills, and teamwork, and supports families and
community.
The focus of the after school program is forestry education. There are 90 youths taking part in the program
and they are served 5 days a week. They will also be adding a media project for 10 middle school youths in
January.
Pamela Robert's presentation included an overview ofthe projects being done at 5 of the club meetings she
has visited. They include: wreath making, learning parliamentary procedure, collecting food for the food
banks, making decorations for the Kai Tai Care Center and giving gifts to families in need at Christmas.
One of the newest clubs is an archery club.
Results from a survey of approximately 200 4-H alumni showed that they felt the organization was a
primary influence in teaching them responsibility, production skills, the ability to handle competition, and
the ability to meet new people.
Al Scalf and Greg Ballard, Department of Community Development re: Professional
Services Agreementfor Environmental Review ofMRL02-235; Wheeler Consulting Group (Fred Hill
Materials): Director of Community Development Al Scalf noted that, in the remand on the Comprehensive
Plan amendment for Fred Hill Materials MRL designation, the Growth Management Hearings Board
requested additional environmental review.
Associate Planner Greg Ballard explained that in November DCD advertised an RFP for consultant services
to prepare the environmental review to address the Hearings Board remand. Four proposals were submitted
and reviewed. The Wheeler Consulting Group/Intergroup Development Corporation was chosen because
they will prepare a draft EIS within 3-4 weeks and a final EIS in 2-3 additional weeks, they have done large,
controversial proj ects in the past, and they have experience with Hearings Boards. The advantage of a draft
EIS and a final supplemental EIS is that it will allow for a public hearing which was recommended by the
Civil Deputy Prosecuting Attorney. Staffwants to have the supplemental EIS approved before the Hearings
Board deadline in April. Fred Hill Materials is reimbursing the County for the cost ofthe EIS.
