From: pilarjohnson Sent:Thursday,June 24, 2021 8:36:24 AM (UTC-o8:oo) Pacific Time(US& Canada) To: Heidi Eisenhour Cc: Kate Dean; Greg Brotherton; msandoval®cityofpt.us; eron@portofpt.com; pilar Johnson Subject: URGENT 4 Corners. CAUTION:This email originated from outside your organization. Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. Dear Decision Makers, My name is Pilar Johnson and I have lived on 4 corners rd for over 20 years. Please, Please, Please do not put the encampment in this tiny community. I speak out to you not completely for myself but for my neighbors who are trying so hard to survive they don't have the time,energy and resources to represent themselves.This is the last, barely affordable area of PT. Its a haven (although imperfect, its slowly, slowly improving)for the people who live here. I have 3 children, my immediate neighbors have 2. Directly across the street they have 4. Many children and single moms live in the mobile home park behind the store. People who live out here already face so many challenges in day to day life. When the transit station went in,we started getting a lot more creeps lurking and wandering around. More stress. I had an incident last year with a man who wandered onto my property screaming,scaring us to death and was arrested. I was home alone with my children at the time.We should be able to live here in our home and feel safe. My kids were born in this house, 5th generation PT.Where do WE go if you accidentally ruin our neighborhood? Then the pandemic hit. More stress. I feel like the people around here need someone to be on their side.That needs to be YOU.The North Beach community has been so negatively affected by the fairgrounds situation,they have a lot more overall life advantages than the people here and its still a drain on them.the families and older low income people around here are just hanging on.Why add more stress to them? My 13 year old daughter just rode the transit home for the first time yesterday from town with 2 friends.Wonderful! Do we need a bunch more creeps around there? Safeway has had such a huge problem.They are a large corporation! Our little store, our hub, is such a great place.The owner has worked so hard to expand it and make it nice. It has had the same employees for years.Why add all the stress on them that even Safeway can't deal with???? I got in the habit of listening to your meetings with Tom Locke so I checked out a bit of the recent videos. I love the focus of investing in the downtown community school for seniors and families.That feels right. Energy and resources well spent. Diversity in PT.good.The low income housing project by qfc,great. Putting an encampment by the inter 1 county grey hound hub to funnel people here? No. Not a good plan. Scary really.what do you guys do when there are more and more people to deal with? More people to buy drugs from the dealers in the mobile home park where kids are living?Where do the moms go then? Support the drug business and ruin the 4 corners store?This plan will fuel an inferno of chaos,you will go home at night to your safe neighborhoods and we will lay in our beds stressing out about if the windows are locked and if our babies are safe. If you must have an encampment, I suggest it be in close,very close, 24-7 proximity to the sheriff or police.This has got to be contained, like coronavirus. (Good job on that) I also think it needs to be on the shoulders of those who are in the strongest position to carry the burden, not the weakest. Our neighborhood will probably get the least objection but that does not mean its the right thing to do for the community as a whole or to the people of 4 corners.Thanks for taking my concerns into consideration when you have to make some hard choices. Please choose PT,the real people of PT. Not the transients or vacationers.We need you. 2 jeffbocc From: Frances <fandrews@olypen.com> Sent: Thursday, June 24, 2021 9:17 AM To: jeffbocc Subject: homeless CAUTION:This email originated from outside your organization.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. Dear local policy makers, I am sending you this because I think you might be inspired by a form of deliberative democracy called a Citizen Assembly, as well as a smaller process called a Citizen's Jury. Basically, I hope to spread the word that these deliberative innovations exist and they are happening around the world, including in Pierce County Washington. During a time of such intense polarization, it is a balm to see people of differing views able to work together. Below you can read about a 100 member"mini-Scotland" Climate Assembly that met seven times and deliberated on evidence from over 100 expert speakers before making recommendations to their government on "How should Scotland change to tackle the climate emergency in an effective and fair way?' The Assembly's recommendations carry weight- Government Ministers must publish a statement outlining how they will respond within six months. Members will then meet for a final time to discuss the ministerial response to their recommendations. At the bottom are links to some short videos. So far I've watched the first two and feel pretty inspired. Also, a smaller process called a Citizen's Jury was recently conducted by the Center for New Democratic Processes for the Pierce County Conservation District: In early June [CNDP] conducted the 5-day Pierce County Rural Climate Dialogue with fifteen participants from rural Pierce County who were stratified to comprise a microcosm of the county's rural residents.The Dialogue was commissioned by the Pierce Conservation District and the Puyallup Watershed Initiative. Participants developed recommendations for responding to the local impacts of climate change on public health and disaster and emergency response initiatives. Sincerely, Lisa Crosby Forwarded Message Subject:DR&D [Network Calls & Events] Update on Scotland's Climate Assembly Date:Thu, 24 Jun 2021 07:59:00+0000 From:Doreen Grove via Democracy R&D<forum@forum.democracyrd.org> To:lisa.paulb@olympus.net ag± Doreen Grove Doreen June 24 1 All a fantastic update from Scotland's Climate Assembly team SCOTLAND'S CLIMATE ASSEMBLY REPORT CALLS FOR"MUCH MORE AND MUCH FASTER" PROGRAM OF ACTION TO TACKLE CLIMATE EMERGENCY The full report of Scotland's Climate Assembly was laid in the Scottish Parliament on Wednesday and will be formally handed over to party leaders at Holyrood today. It sets out 81 recommendations agreed by an overwhelming consensus of members for tackling the climate emergency in a fair and effective way.These recommendations cover a broad range of issues including domestic heating, emissions, environmental impact in public procurement, land use and agriculture, taxation, transport(including air travel) and the economy. Among the proposals put forward are plans for a National Nature Service aimed at creating jobs in rewilding and environmental protection,enhanced training and opportunities in green jobs, a program of public education on climate issues, and a single "oyster card"for Scotland that would help integrate the country's transport system.Another recommendation is to retrofit all existing homes by 2030, with all new buildings to be required to meet highly energy efficient Passivhaus standards. In their Statement of Ambition, Assembly members address the whole of Scottish society, including government, businesses, communities and individuals. It gives a detailed overview of the changes members say are now essential. "As a nation we have the opportunity to be pioneers, by taking immediate action to empower our next generations to lead sustainable lives by setting up the framework now,"Assembly members write. "As a society we will need to change and adapt to meet the challenges, and recognise that there will be costs. But failure to act now will mean greater expense, and more difficult changes in the future, in order to avoid catastrophic costs to the planet." The Climate Assembly is the second citizens' assembly to be held in Scotland and the first tasked with addressing the issue of climate change. It is a "mini-Scotland" with over 100 members broadly representative of the country in terms of age, gender, household income, ethnicity, geography, rurality, disability, and attitude towards climate change.The Assembly operates independently of government. It is one of the first such bodies anywhere in the world to complete its work entirely online. It is also the first national citizens' assembly to incorporate contributions from children. The Climate Assembly's report published today includes calls to action from over 100 children across Scotland who participated as climate investigators with the Children's Parliament. The Assembly met seven times and members deliberated on evidence from over 100 expert speakers.The remit of the Assembly tasked members with responding to the question: 'How should Scotland change to tackle the climate emergency in an effective and fair way?' The Assembly's recommendations carry weight-Government Ministers must publish a statement outlining how they will respond within six months. Members will then meet for a final time to discuss the ministerial response to their recommendations.

The Interim Final Rule recognizes that^decrease[s to] a state or local government's ability to effectively administer services," such as cuts to public sector staffing levels, can constitute negative economic impact of the pandemic. During the COVID-19 public health emergency, many courts were unable to operate safely during the pandemic and, as a result, now face significant backlogs. Court backlogs resulting from inability of courts to safely operate during the [OV|C>-19 pandemic decreased the government's ability to administer services.

Jay Inslee announced a"bridge"proclamation today between the eviction moratorium and the housing stability programs put in place by the Legislature.The bridge is effective July 1 through September 30. More than$650 million of federal relief dollars allocated to assist renters is predicted to be available beginning in July. This is in addition to the$500 million dollars previously released by the Department of Commerce to local governments for rental assistance and will help more than 80,000 landlords and renters. "As we all know, COVID has had a significant economic impact on our state and a lot of Washingtonians are still experiencing financial hardships.That is why I put an eviction moratorium in place last year," Inslee said during a press conference Thursday. "These are all reasonable steps and will help ensure that renters and landlords have the opportunity to receive support and resources that are available to them." The eviction moratorium bridge will allow for a transition to the tenant protections established in SB 5160, including the Eviction Resolution pilot programs and the Right to Counsel program for indigent tenants. The bridge is not an extension of the existing eviction moratorium,first declared in March 2020. Under the new order, new provisions will support renters and landlords until resources and programs become available. For past rent due from February 29,2020 through July 31,2021, landlords are prohibited from evicting a tenant until there is an operational rental assistance program and eviction resolution program in place in their county. Additionally, landlords are prohibited from treating past unpaid rent or other charges as an enforceable debt until the landlord and tenant have been provided with an opportunity to resolve nonpayment through an eviction resolution pilot program. 1 i Beginning August 1, renters are expected to pay full rent, reduced rent negotiated with landlord, or actively seek rental assistance funding. Landlords may only evict a tenant if none of those actions are being taken but must offer the tenant a reasonable re-payment plan before beginning the eviction process.Tenants must also be provided, in writing,the services and support available. Hotels and motels,Airbnbs, long-term care facilities and other non-traditional housing are exempt from the order. The full proclamation and details will be available in the coming days.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. I will add to Lisa's comments and share for those not aware that there was a Washington Climate Assembly held earlier this year. (I was involved a little early on but then had to step back due to other commitments. There were a number of folks from the Olympic Peninsula on the initiating team.) The final report is on line here and is a wealth of good information and recommended policies. You can also find out more at https://www.waclimateassembly.orq/. The question addressed was a great one: "How can Washington State equitably design and implement climate mitigation strategies while strengthening communities disproportionately impacted by climate change across the State?" Cindy On Thursday, June 24, 2021, 10:59:15 AM PDT, Lisa Crosby <paulb@olympus.net> wrote: Dear local policy makers, I am sending you this because I think you might be inspired by a form of deliberative democracy called a Citizen Assembly, as well as a smaller process called a Citizen's Jury. Basically, I hope to spread the word that these deliberative innovations exist and they are happening around the world, including in Pierce County Washington. During a time of such intense polarization, it is a balm to see people of differing views able to work together. Below you can read about a 100 member"mini-Scotland" Climate Assembly that met seven times and deliberated on evidence from over 100 expert speakers before making recommendations to their government on "How should Scotland change to tackle the climate emergency in an effective and fair way?' The Assembly's recommendations carry weight- Government Ministers must publish a statement outlining how they will respond within six months. Members will then meet for a final time to discuss the ministerial response to their recommendations. At the bottom are links to some short videos. So far I've watched the first two and feel pretty inspired. Also, a smaller process called a Citizen's Jury was recently conducted by the Center for New Democratic Processes for the Pierce County Conservation District: In early June [CNDP] conducted the 5-day Pierce County Rural Climate Dialogue with fifteen participants from rural Pierce County who were stratified to comprise a microcosm of the county's rural residents. The Dialogue was commissioned by the Pierce Conservation District and the Puyallup Watershed Initiative. Participants developed recommendations for responding to the local impacts of climate change on public health and disaster and emergency response initiatives. Sincerely, i Lisa Crosby Forwarded Message Subject:DR&D [Network Calls& Events] Update on Scotland's Climate Assembly Date:Thu, 24 Jun 2021 07:59:00+0000 From:Doreen Grove via Democracy R&D<forum@forum.democracyrd.org> To:lisa.paulb@olympus.net Q '= Doreen Grove Doreen June 24 All a fantastic update from Scotland's Climate Assembly team SCOTLAND'S CLIMATE ASSEMBLY REPORT CALLS FOR"MUCH MORE AND MUCH FASTER" PROGRAM OF ACTION TO TACKLE CLIMATE EMERGENCY The full report of Scotland's Climate Assembly was laid in the Scottish Parliament on Wednesday and will be formally handed over to party leaders at Holyrood today. It sets out 81 recommendations agreed by an overwhelming consensus of members for tackling the climate emergency in a fair and effective way. These recommendations cover a broad range of issues including domestic heating, emissions, environmental impact in public procurement, land use and agriculture, taxation, transport(including air travel) and the economy. Among the proposals put forward are plans for a National Nature Service aimed at creating jobs in rewilding and environmental protection, enhanced training and opportunities in green jobs, a program of public education on climate issues, and a single "oyster card" for Scotland that would help integrate the country's transport system. Another recommendation is to retrofit all existing homes by 2030, with all new buildings to be required to meet highly energy efficient Passivhaus standards. In their Statement of Ambition, Assembly members address the whole of Scottish society, including government, businesses, communities and individuals. It gives a detailed overview of the changes members say are now essential. "As a nation we have the opportunity to be pioneers, by taking immediate action to empower our next generations to lead sustainable lives by setting up the framework now,"Assembly members write. "As a society we will need to change and adapt to meet the challenges, and recognise that there will be costs. But failure to act now will mean greater expense, and more difficult changes in the future, in order to avoid catastrophic costs to the planet." The Climate Assembly is the second citizens' assembly to be held in Scotland and the first tasked with addressing the issue of climate change. It is a"mini-Scotland"with over 100 members broadly representative of the country in terms of age, gender, household income, ethnicity, geography, rurality, disability, and attitude towards climate change. The Assembly operates independently of government. It is one of the first such bodies anywhere in the world to complete its work entirely online. It is also the first national citizens' assembly to incorporate contributions from children. The Climate Assembly's report published today includes calls to action from over 100 children across Scotland who participated as climate investigators with the Children's Parliament. The Assembly met seven times and members deliberated on evidence from over 100 expert speakers. The remit of the Assembly tasked members with responding to the question: 'How should Scotland change to tackle the climate emergency in an effective and fair way?' The Assembly's recommendations carry weight-Government Ministers must publish a statement outlining how they will respond within six months. Members will then meet for a final time to discuss the ministerial response to their recommendations.

Inslee's "bridge" proclamation between eviction moratorium and housing stability programs From: Walton, Katherine (GOV) Sent: Thursday, June 24, 2021 3:17:51 PM (UTC-08:00) Pacific Time (US &Canada) Subject: Gov. Inslee's "bridge" proclamation between eviction moratorium and housing stability programs CAUTION:This email originated from outside your organization. Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. Good afternoon, I wanted to share a few updates from our office: This morning, Gov.Jay Inslee announced a "bridge" proclamation today between the eviction moratorium and the housing stability programs put in place by the Legislature.The bridge is effective July 1 through September 30. More than$650 million of federal relief dollars allocated to assist renters is predicted to be available beginning in July. This is in addition to the $500 million dollars previously released by the Department of Commerce to local governments for rental assistance and will help more than 80,000 landlords and renters. The eviction moratorium bridge will allow for a transition to the tenant protections established in SB 5160, including the Eviction Resolution pilot programs and the Right to Counsel program for indigent tenants.The bridge is not an extension of the existing eviction moratorium,first declared in March 2020. Under the new order, new provisions will support renters and landlords until resources and programs become available. For past rent due from February 29, 2020 through July 31, 2021, landlords are prohibited from evicting a tenant until there is an operational rental assistance program and eviction resolution program in place in their county.Additionally, landlords are prohibited from treating past unpaid rent or other charges as an enforceable debt until the landlord and tenant have been provided with an opportunity to resolve nonpayment through an eviction resolution pilot program. Beginning August 1, renters are expected to pay full rent, reduced rent negotiated with landlord, or actively seek rental assistance funding. Landlords may only evict a tenant if none of those actions are being taken but must offer the tenant a reasonable re-payment plan before beginning the eviction process.Tenants must also be provided, in writing,the services and support available. Hotels and motels, Airbnbs, long-term care facilities and other non-traditional housing are exempt from the order. The full proclamation and details will be available in the coming days. Last week we announced that three proclamations related to the COVID-19 pandemic will be rescinded: 1 Proclamation 20-30, which suspends statutory job search requirements for applicants seeking unemployment insurance. This rescission is effective July 4.Additional information for job seekers is available from the Employment Security Department here. Read the full proclamation here. Proclamation 20-46, which provides protections for high-risk workers, has been substantially replaced by Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill (ESSB) 5115 and was made immediately effective.This new law,which was signed and made effective immediately, is known as the Health Emergency Labor Standards Act (HELSA), applies to workplaces only during a declared public health emergency involving an infectious or contagious disease.The law includes protections for high-risk employees from discrimination during public health emergencies. Information about these protections is available here.This rescission is effective June 28. Read the full proclamation here. Proclamation 20-76, which limited the fees that third-party delivery services could charge restaurants for delivering food to customers.This rescission is effective immediately.

I invite you to a Zoom meeting on Tuesday,June 29, 2021 at 8:30 a.m.to discuss this proposed settlement and Washington's concerns with some of the terms. I have been convening periodic calls over the past two years to update you and your legal teams regarding the status of these negotiations.This call will be similar to previous calls that we have had with you and your legal teams.These meetings have been an opportunity to share what we have heard about settlement negotiations and to discuss proposed terms. In those prior calls, I have expressed serious reservations about the proposed settlement, including concerns about the amount that would be paid to Washington,the number of years over which it would be paid, and the lack of accountability.As each of you know,the amount of money needed to try to address the opioid problem in our communities is vast. I believe that any monies we recover must be used to address the opioid epidemic. No recoveries should go to the general fund for purposes unrelated to the epidemic. Washington has pending lawsuits against each of the four companies that are part of this proposed settlement.The State's case against the three major distributors is set for trial on September 7, 2021 in King County Superior Court, while the State's case against Johnson &Johnson is currently set for trial on January 10, 2022 in King County.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. County Commissioners Kate Dean, Heidi Eisenhour, &Greg Brotherton: I am a Jefferson County resident, home owner, and taxpayer. I am also a pilot, I own an airplane which I hangar at Jefferson County Intl Airport. I am very concerned about the proposed relocation of the homeless encampment, currently located at the county fairgrounds, to some Port-owned property adjacent to the airport. First of all,there are safety concerns. A lot of the homeless have known drug and mental health issues. As you may know, our airport is unfenced, I feel there is a very real risk of some of them wandering onto the airport. This puts both the trespassers and the aircraft operators at great risk of injury or death. Secondly,there are security concerns. As I said, our airport is unfenced. I feel that the hangars &the airplanes themselves will make very attractive targets for would-be burglars or vandals. I saved up for a long time to be able to afford my airplane & my hangar, and I take putting them at risk very seriously. The airport businesses also make pretty attractive targets, especially the Spruce Goose Cafe due to it's having money&alcohol on the premises. There is also the risk of homeless people from the encampment accosting people on the airport grounds, by aggressively panhandling or just forcing confrontations. Clallam County put in a homeless shelter adjacent to Fairchild airport. I understand there have been a number of problems at the airport associated with the residents of that shelter, in spite of the fact that Fairchild airport does have a security fence. Thirdly, I checked out the county's own "Homeless Encampment Relocation Scoring Matrix". Out of 14 allegedly viable sites,the airport-adjacent location did not even make it into the top ten. So I am curious as to why the county seems to be zeroing in on that location. In closing, I would urge the county to NOT pursue relocating the homeless encampment next to the airport.

Have a great weekend—and stay cool! All the best, Mary Jane MARY JANE ROBINS District Representative—Clallam & Jefferson Counties Port Angeles Office of Representative Derek Kilmer (WA-6) 0: (360) 797-3623 332 East 5th Street, Port Angeles, WA 98362 Click here to sign-up for updates from Derek FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 25, 2021 KiLmER i'1S adie,'Rtprowntmg 5°t hitr ,ton'4 h th Vratrit Kilmer Announces Payment In Lieu of Taxes (PILT) Funding for Vital Community Services 1 Washington, DC—Today, U.S. Representative Derek Kilmer (WA-06) announced that local governments in Washington's sixth congressional district will receive over $4.28 million in Payments in Lieu of Taxes (PILT) funding for 2021. PILT payments are provided to local government to offset the loss in property revenue due to federal lands, like Olympic National Park and Olympic National Forest. As a member of the House Appropriations Committee, Rep. Kilmer advocates annually in the appropriations process for funding to the PILT program. "The Payments in Lieu of Taxes program supports critical local services in rural communities across our region —including essential community public health programs,job-creating infrastructure, and firefighting," said Rep. Kilmer. "I'm proud to have helped secure this critical federal funding—and will keep working to ensure the PILT program is fully funded." PILT funding for Washington's sixth congressional district include: • Clallam County, $1,155,238 • Jefferson County, $1,643,245 "This year's distribution of$529.3 million to more than 1,900 counties will help local governments carry out vital services, such as firefighting and police protection, construction of public schools and roads, and search- and-rescue operations," said Secretary Haaland. "Our mission relies on partnerships with U.S. states and territories. These disbursements are a great example of our commitment to be a good neighbor to the communities we serve." PILT payments are made annually for tax-exempt federal lands administered by Department of the Interior ("Interior") agencies, including the Bureau of Land Management, the National Park Service, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Bureau of Reclamation. Additionally, PILT payments cover federal lands administered by the U.S. Forest Service, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and the Utah Reclamation Mitigation and Conservation Commission. These payments are calculated based on the number of acres of federal land within each county or jurisdiction, and the population of that county or jurisdiction. Since PILT payments began in 1977, the DOI has distributed more than$10.2 billion to states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. DOI collects more than $10.3 billion in revenue annually from commercial activities on public lands, such as oil and gas leasing, livestock grazing, and timber harvesting. A portion of these revenues is shared with states and counties. The balance is deposited in the U.S. Treasury, which in turn pays for a broad array of federal activities, including PILT funding. Individual county payments may vary from year to year as a result of changes in acreage data, which is updated annually by the federal agency administering the land; prior-year federal revenue-sharing payments reported annually by the governor of each state; inflationary adjustments using the Consumer Price Index; and population data, which is updated using information from the U.S. Census Bureau. ### Communications Director Pronouns: He/him Office of Representative Derek Kilmer (WA-6) C: 202-734-0576 2 44 I 41. f ; 0 Click here to sign-up for updates from Derek 3 Julie Shannon From: Kate Dean Sent: Friday, June 25, 2021 12:06 PM To: Julie Shannon Subject: FW: Invitation from Attorney General Bob Ferguson to Meeting Re: Proposed Opioid Settlement (Tues., June 29, 8:30 a.m.) Importance: High From: Mellani McAleenan Sent: Friday, June 25, 2021 12:04:13 PM (UTC-08:00) Pacific Time (US &Canada) To: WSAC All Members Subject: FW: Invitation from Attorney General Bob Ferguson to Meeting Re: Proposed Opioid Settlement (Tues., June 29, 8:30 a.m.) CAUTION:This email originated from outside your organization.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. Good afternoon, As promised, I have an update related to cooling centers. From our office: Gov.Jay Inslee today removed COVID-related capacity limits at publicly owned or operated, and non-profit cooling centers. The governor's emergency proclamations 20-05 and 20-25.13, "Healthy Washington—Roach-nap to Recovery," remain in effect and have capacity limitations to prevent the spread of COVID-19.This order allows capacity limitations to be adjusted or removed in order to provide the ability to serve more people at publicly owned or operated, and non-profit cooling centers. Eligible cooling centers are those created, administered or designated by a non-profit, state or local government entity; e.g., a state agency, city, county or other political subdivision, or an entity incorporated under the Washington Nonprofit Corporation Act or analogous law from another jurisdiction, to temporarily address the health effects of a heat wave. The suspension of capacity limitations does not apply to private, for-profit businesses that offer air-conditioned spaces to the general public. All other aspects of the governor's COVID restrictions remain in effect until Wednesday,June 30th or whenever 70 percent of the population initiates vaccination, whichever comes first. Find the full memo here. Background:The Washington State Department of Health on precautions for a heat wave Please feel free to reach out with questions or concerns.

Inslee's "bridge" proclamation between eviction moratorium and housing stability programs Good afternoon, I wanted to share a few updates from our office: This morning, Gov.Jay Inslee announced a "bridge" proclamation today between the eviction moratorium and the housing stability programs put in place by the Legislature.The bridge is effective July 1 through September 30. More than $650 million of federal relief dollars allocated to assist renters is predicted to be available beginning in July. This is in addition to the $500 million dollars previously released by the Department of Commerce to local governments for rental assistance and will help more than 80,000 landlords and renters. The eviction moratorium bridge will allow for a transition to the tenant protections established in SB 5160, including the Eviction Resolution pilot programs and the Right to Counsel program for indigent tenants. The bridge is not an extension of the existing eviction moratorium, first declared in March 2020. Under the new order, new provisions will support renters and landlords until resources and programs become available. For past rent due from February 29, 2020 through July 31, 2021, landlords are prohibited from evicting a tenant until there is an operational rental assistance program and eviction resolution program in place in their county.Additionally, landlords are prohibited from treating past unpaid rent or other charges as an enforceable debt until the landlord and tenant have been provided with an opportunity to resolve nonpayment through an eviction resolution pilot program. Beginning August 1, renters are expected to pay full rent, reduced rent negotiated with landlord, or actively seek rental assistance funding. Landlords may only evict a tenant if none of those actions are being taken but must offer the tenant a reasonable re-payment plan before beginning the eviction process.Tenants must also be provided, in writing, the services and support available. Hotels and motels, Airbnbs, long-term care facilities and other non-traditional housing are exempt from the order. The full proclamation and details will be available in the coming days. Last week we announced that three proclamations related to the COVID-19 pandemic will be rescinded: Proclamation 20-30, which suspends statutory job search requirements for applicants seeking unemployment insurance. This rescission is effective July 4. Additional information for job seekers is available from the Employment Security Department here. Read the full proclamation here. Proclamation 20-46, which provides protections for high-risk workers, has been substantially replaced by Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill (ESSB) 5115 and was made immediately effective.This new law,which was signed and made effective immediately, is known as the Health Emergency Labor Standards Act (HELSA), applies to workplaces only 2 The law includes protections during a declared public health emergency involving an infectious or contagious disease for high-risk employees from discrimination during public health emergencies. Information about these protections is available here. This rescission is effective June 28. Read the full proclamation here. Proclamation 20-76, which limited the fees that third-party delivery services could charge restaurants for delivering food to customers.This rescission is effective immediately. Read the full proclamation here. I have also received quite a few questions about cooling centers in anticipation of temperatures this weekend and next week. I do not have any information currently but our office is looking into the issue and I will send out an email if and when we have an update. As always, please email or call with any questions or concerns that you might have.

Consequently, people living in the impacted region will be at high to very high risk of heat-related effects. In response, many local governments and non-profit organizations are mobilizing"cooling centers"to protect people from the weather. Proclamations 20-05 and 20-25.13, "Healthy Washington—Roadmap to Recovery,"remain in force as of the date of this memo. To ensure sufficient access for all who may need relief from the heat, I hereby direct that any capacity limitation ordered under my COVID-19 emergency proclamations be suspended for all cooling centers owned or operated by non-profit or public entities. For purposes of this memo, eligible cooling centers are those created, administered, or designated by a non-profit, state, or local government entity; e.g., a state agency, city, county, or other political subdivision, or an entity incorporated under the Washington Nonprofit Corporation Act or analogous law from another jurisdiction. The suspension of capacity limitations does not apply to private, for-profit businesses that offer air-conditioned spaces to the general public.

Hello County Commissioners, Dr Locke, and Willie Bence, There were fewer questions submitted to KPTZ this week. Please see them listed below for Monday,June 28th's update. Thank you, Lynn Sorensen KPTZ Virus Watch Team Questions for Dr. Locke: 1. Is a person "naturally immune" if they had COVID infection, and so,therefore, don't need to get vaccinated? If the answer to the above question is true, is it true for the long run, or just for a short while? 2. How long does the vaccination protect us (is it good for the long run, or do we need to get boosters in the future?) 3. I have read that the Delta(India)variant is 80 times more infectious as the original novel coronavirus and this highly infectivity is playing out in Australia where fewer are vaccinated due to problems in the vaccine supply line. What is the current percentage of Delta variant within the United States? Should the fully vaccinated still wear masks indoors in crowded settings? Questions for the County Commissioners,Dr Locke, and Willie Bence: 1. Will this KPTZ Covid update forum continue after June 30th restrictions are lifted? 2. And if so, would it be weekly? 1 Julie Shannon From: Kate Dean Sent: Friday, June 25, 2021 2:59 PM To: Julie Shannon Subject: FW: An inspired leader to fundamentally change the foster experience From: Ian Hanna Sent: Friday, June 25, 2021 2:58:37 PM (UTC-08:00) Pacific Time (US &Canada) To: Ian Hanna Subject: An inspired leader to fundamentally change the foster experience CAUTION:This email originated from outside your organization.

Friends and colleagues, I know many of you have been following the growth and development of Olympic Angels as we provide the Peninsula with a framework for community supported foster care.The need is acute, but the community response has been an inspiration. 120+volunteers have made a daily difference in the lives of these kids and families, and the levels of awareness and action have skyrocketed.

As someone who is concerned about child welfare and youth development on the Peninsula, I'd be grateful if you could share the job posting far and wide and consider whether you know of any great candidates. Often the best candidates aren't looking for a new job, but are moved to consider it when someone says "You'd be amazing at this!".Who do you know that is capable and motivated to lead the charge on changing the foster experience here on the Peninsula?

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. Hello, In a few months Jefferson County will undergo redistricting. I plan on being on the redistricting committee along with another member of the Republican Party. While this will be done based on census data it is important that the voter rolls are also accurate. Initial canvassing and review of data (see study link below) indicates that Jefferson County has far more registered voters than it should. I do not have anything to share at this point but we will in time. As the Jefferson County Republican Party Chairman it is incumbent on me to ensure that the registered voter list is accurate. To this end I am asking that you direct your department to audit the voter rolls. In addition I note that there are a few precincts with odd shapes. Precincts 104, 105 and 107 immediately jump out. Sincerely, Craig Durgan Chairman Jefferson County Republican Party https://www.judicialwatch.org/press-releases/new-iw-study-voter-registration/?fbclid=lwAR3dXuZ- bn6zDzw aQ7N-ZQDF6m4c9x5PFWPn6Y1ajbYduf9G10NhZICkHk i AM Dean Kate -- 26, 2021 5:07 June Julie Shannon Saturday, n Shanno inPhotos Julie Week From: FW:This Sent: To: Subject: Fro m : NACo o Sent: Saturday, June 26, 2021 5:06:48 AM (UTC- 0 8:0° ) Pa Pacific Time im e (US uS &Canada) To: Kate Dean Subject: This Week in Photos CAUTION:This email originated from outside your organization.

Pete Hanke;jeffbocc; Mark McCauley Subject: proposed airport-area homeless camp Attachments: homeless camp relocation scoring matrix.jpg CAUTION:This email originated from outside your organization. Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. Port of PT and Jefferson County officials: I was unable to attend the 6.23.21 Port of PT zoom meeting, but this morning I listened to an audio recording of it and have a few comments. One of the Port commissioners commented that the airport-adjacent location might be allowed "if a more suitable location can't be found". Well, I haven't seen it displayed online as a stand-alone display, but the video recording of the 6.17.21 County Commission meeting AV Capture ALL features a spreadsheet entitled "Homeless Encampment Relocation Scoring Matrix" (see attachment), on which fourteen potential sites are evaluated. Out of these fourteen allegedly viable sites,the airport-adjacent site is ranked as#11-- it didn't even make the top ten! So I'm wondering why the county seems to be pushing this location. I am unable to access the online revised meeting packet, but I assume that this scoring matrix was not included. I was very disappointed that it was not discussed at the Port meeting, and I am especially disappointed that county commissioner Greg Brotherton did not provide it or bring it up during the discussion. Another issue is whether this location is even allowable by state law. As I understand it, RCW 36.70.547: General aviation airports—Siting of incompatible uses. (wa.gov) requires that counties discourage the siting of incompatible land uses adjacent to general aviation airports. Some of the residents of this homeless camp have known drug abuse and mental health issues-- if relocating that camp immediately adjacent to a busy, unfenced GA airport is not an incompatible use, I don't know what is. Although the proposed location is not actually within the boundaries of the Airport Layout Plan, and therefore is not officially "on the airport", I would request that the Port contact the FAA&WS-DOT Aviation & ask for their input on this proposal, as I have a pretty good idea that they wouldn't think too highly of it.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. 6/26/zo21 Dear Commissioners Dean, Eisenhour, and Brotherton: First, I would like to commend the road crew that services West Jefferson County's network of roads.They regularly patrol and maintain our roads in all seasons and conditions,often working well beyond normal business hours. Unlike many other road projects,one can find them always working, never standing on the side of the road while leaning on a theydo and the diligence with shovel, checking their phones, or talking in a group. I am grateful and appreciative of all g which they work. Please pass on my gratitude to that department.The reason for my contact, however,does relate to the road where I have lived for almost 5o years. Dowans Creek Rd has always been a popular access to the upper Bogachiel River.There is a wonderful swimming hole at Dowans Creek.Just downstream from there(on private property)is a gravel bar that attracts families and groups for picnics, barbeques and recreational fires.Alcohol is often present with attendant refuse issues and occasional vandalism.We have often policed the area without complaint. The main issue I have is with the folks who refuse to follow a posted speed limit of 20 mph due to primitive road conditions. My residence is less than woo ft.from Highway ios.While mowing and collecting garbage on my property's right-of-way, I have been hit by rocks.On more than one occasion two cars have met and I have narrowly averted being hit by vehicles traveling at speeds approaching 5o mph or greater. In the past two years, I have witnessed vehicle drivers being startled by my presence and losing control as they crest the hill on their return to the highway. In dry weather, the dust clouds persist for hours at a time. Sometimes the culprits have been my own neighbors or property owners to the east. Several times I have requested additional patrols from the sheriff's department.That seems to be an ineffective way of alleviating the problems that have only become worse over the years. Of course,there are no simple solutions.Would it be possible to install posted speed bumps?(The road crew rarely allows a washboard to develop!)Could the gravel be oiled or chip sealed? I certainly don't expect asphalt, but would welcome any improvement on the first woo feet from the highway. Thank you kindly for your time and attention.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. Hello Commissioners, As a concerned neighbor for the proposed Cape George site (I live 0.4 miles from the site), the fire danger is a HUGE issue. My wife, children and I have been working on our property for over 20 years, that's a lot of blood, sweat and tears. It has been proven that there are irresponsible campers at the Fairgrounds, otherwise you wouldn't have 150+ police calls in 6 months. Fire absolutely will happen, those woods are a tinder box and like it or not people will stray outside of the fence. Look at the countless fires in Seattle, propane tank explosions, etc. I'm begging you please to not subject us to this threat(among many other threats). I understand the "not in my backyard" mentality, but think of the homes and lives that will be destroyed when a fire breaks out. You'll have a bigger homeless problem on your hands, from tax paying long time local residents- let alone potential fatalities. That burden will be on...whom? Please take this seriously. Thank you for your time.

CAUTION:This email originated from outside your organization. Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. Dear commissioners, I went to the Cape George Pit today, without my dog, as I would not walk my dog through the excessive heat of the gravel bowl. I measured the temperature on the gravel at the pit and on my grass in my yard and the temperature difference was 42F. It was 99f in my yard and 141 in the gravel pit.This was at 1pm, not even the hottest part of the day.These are temperatures that people die at, heat stroke will be a huge liability even at air temperatures of 80f in Port Townsend, let alone any extraordinary temperatures. I will remeasure at the peak heat time today. The problem is exacerbated by 2 factors: 1.The gravel soaks up the heat and radiates it back out.This means that the temperatures do not cool off overnight leaving the bowl unbearable even as the evening temperature start to fall. 2.The shape of the bowl reduces airflow and in itself radiates heat back into the bowl. Additionally,the NCBI has indicated that the influence of both legal and illicit drug use exacerbates heat related morbidity due to impaired heat dissipation. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22447633/ Regards Eleanor Shinsky. 1 Julie Shannon From: Kate Dean Sent: Monday, June 28, 2021 3:11 PM To: Julie Shannon Subject: FW: Coronavirus Pandemic Resources for Counties—June 28, 2021 From: NACo Sent: Monday, June 28, 2021 3:10:29 PM (UTC-08:00) Pacific Time (US &Canada) To: Kate Dean Subject: Coronavirus Pandemic Resources for Counties—June 28, 2021 CAUTION:This email originated from outside your organization.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. Dear WSAC members— We discussed on today's WSAC Zoom call that the Governor's office was considering whether to issue an emergency proclamation allowing local options to address 4th of July fireworks bans given the extreme weather. However, Governor Inslee ultimately decided against issuing an order, so we are back where we started. Washington State law allows for the discharge of fireworks between June 28 and July 5 (RCW 70.77.395(2)). Cities and Counties are allowed to be more restrictive than state law, but your local ordinance may not have an effective date less than one year after adoption. Thus,you do not have time to adopt a more restrictive ordinance to take effect this year. The statute is silent as to emergency exceptions.Some jurisdictions have adopted ordinances giving themselves the authority to prohibit the discharge of fireworks based on emergency conditions such as high fire hazard weather. If you have not done so, you may want to seek legal guidance from your prosecutor regarding whether your own emergency powers give you the authority to enact bans notwithstanding this statute. You may also want to consider adopting an emergency clause for your existing ordinance to take effect next year. You can find examples at MRSC's page on fireworks regulations. I asked for, but have not yet received, information regarding whether the Governor has any plans for state lands. Please accept my apologies for the waste of time on today's call. This decision was an unexpected turn of events. However, as I typed this message, I heard that the Muckleshoot tribe has closed their stands, and the Washington State Council of Firefighters has also contacted the Governor's office, so there is some possibility this could change again.

CAUTION:This email originated from outside your organization. Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. Greg and Heidi and Kate, I am grinding my teeth over the $100K "bribe" to the FG Board to let the "campers" stay until the end of September. Oh, I wish I could believe you but after what the neighborhood here has been through, I can't . You will hem and haw and want to build things and permits will take too long and folks will take vacations and then it will be the end of September with no place ready for them. We have seen this movie before. Then it will be autumn with winter coming and the campground would be closed anyway so keep the "campers" where they are until Spring, 2022. Bribe the FG Board with more money. Who cares about the neighborhood? Kate Dean asked if "anyone had talked to the neighbors" about the offer to the FG Board. Then she added that it was not the BOCC's responsibility to inform us. Has the FG Board informed us? HAVE THEY EVER INFORMED US ABOUT ANY OF THIS, FROM THE START? No. It has been from watching the people showing up and not leaving, wandering around, trash accumulating, and we neighbors all began to ask each other questions about what was going on. Then some of us began watching the BOCC meetings and finding out what was happening and how powerless we were/are because no one asks us for our opinions and feelings— we just get to hear about your decisions after the fact. And then we just have to deal with it. Unless I hear that a place is being readied for the "campers" by August, I will know what next winter will be like. Already there are new cars with tarps over them, new campers showing up. Who will control the population? With these dry conditions, who can stop a fire from beginning from a tossed cigarette butt? We find them all over the fairgrounds now, and our neighborhood too. We never used to. —Lisa Greenfield, 41st Street (one block from the campground) i Julie Shannon From: Kate Dean Sent: Tuesday, June 29, 2021 8:34 AM To: Julie Shannon Subject: FW: 2022 LIHEAP Interested Parties Letter Attachments: IP Letterhead 2.pdf From: Lipsey, Lisa (COM) Sent: Tuesday, June 29, 2021 8:33:51 AM (UTC-08:00) Pacific Time (US &Canada) To: danb@co.adams.wa.us; jayw@co.adams.wa.us; terryt@co.adams.wa.us; bshinn@co.asotin.wa.us; cwhitman@co.asotin.wa.us; cseubert@co.asotin.wa.us;jerome.delvin@co.benton.wa.us; shon.small@co.benton.wa.us; will.mckay@co.benton.wa.us; DOR Chelan County Leg Authority 3; DOR Chelan County Leg Authority 2; tiffany.gering@co.chelan.wa.us; bpeach@co.clallam.wa.us; mozias@co.clallam.wa.us; rjohnson@co.clallam.wa.us; eileen.quiringobrien@clark.wa.gov; DOR Clark County Leg Authority 4; DOR Clark County Leg Authority 3; karen.bowerman@clark.wa.gov; DOR Clark County Leg Authority 2; Charles_Amerein@co.columbia.wa.us; marty_hall@co.columbia.wa.us; Ryan_Rundell@co.columbia.wa.us; mortensena@co.cowlitz.wa.us; weberd@co.cowlitz.wa.us; gardnerj@co.cowlitz.wa.us; dsutton@co.douglas.wa.us; ksteinburg@co.douglas.wa.us; mstraub@co.douglas.wa.us; dgianukakis@co.ferry.wa.us; mheath@co.ferry.wa.us; ndavis@co.ferry.wa.us; DOR Franklin County Leg Authority 3; DOR Franklin County Leg Authority 1; Rmullen@co.franklin.wa.us;jnelson@co.garfield.wa.us; jdixon@co.garfield.wa.us; Iledgerwood@co.garfield.wa.us; ccarter@grantcountywa.gov; destone@grantcountywa.gov; rjones@grantcountywa.gov; jwarne@co.grays-harbor.wa.us; kpine@co.grays-harbor.wa.us; Vickie Raines; J.StClair@islandcountywa.gov; Jill.Johnson@islandcountywa.gov; melanie.bacon@islandcountywa.gov; Greg Brotherton; Heidi Eisenhour; Kate Dean; claudia.balducci@kingcounty.gov; dave.upthegrove@kingcounty.gov; dow.constantine@kingcounty.gov; Girmay.zahilay@kingcounty.gov; Jeanne Kohl-Welles; McDermott, Joe (DOHi); kathy.lambert@kingcounty.gov; pete.vonreichbauer@kingcounty.gov; reagan.dunn@kingcounty.gov; rod.dembowski@kingcounty.gov; cgarrido@co.kitsap.wa.us; ewolfe@co.kitsap.wa.us; Gelder, Rob (DOHi); brett.wachsmith.co@co.kittitas.wa.us; cory.wright@co.kittitas.wa.us; laura.osiadacz@co.kittitas.wa.us; danc@klickitatcounty.org; DaveS@klickitatcounty.org; jacoba@klickitatcounty.org; gary.stamper@lewiscountywa.gov; lindsey.pollock@lewiscountywa.gov; sean.swope@lewiscountywa.gov; DOR Lincoln County Leg Authority 3; DOR Lincoln County Leg Authority 2 Subject: 2022 LIHEAP Interested Parties Letter CAUTION:This email originated from outside your organization.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. Dear all, I should have mentioned in my previous email that Citizen Assemblies and Citizen Juries have been applied to many issues, not just climate change. Just wanted to make sure I didn't give a false impression of the utility of these methods in my effort to raise awareness about them. Sincerely again, Lisa On 6/24/2021 10:59 AM, Lisa Crosby wrote: Dear local policy makers, I am sending you this because I think you might be inspired by a form of deliberative democracy called a Citizen Assembly, as well as a smaller process called a Citizen's Jury. Basically, I hope to spread the word that these deliberative innovations exist and they are happening around the world, including in Pierce County Washington. During a time of such intense polarization, it is a balm to see people of differing views able to work together. Below you can read about a 100 member"mini-Scotland" Climate Assembly that met seven times and deliberated on evidence from over 100 expert speakers before making recommendations to their government on "How should Scotland change to tackle the climate emergency in an effective and fair way?' The Assembly's recommendations carry weight-Government Ministers must publish a statement outlining how they will respond within six months. Members will then meet for a final time to discuss the ministerial response to their recommendations. At the bottom are links to some short videos. So far I've watched the first two and feel pretty inspired. Also, a smaller process called a Citizen's Jury was recently conducted by the Center for New Democratic Processes for the Pierce County Conservation District: In early June [CNDP] conducted the 5-day Pierce County Rural Climate Dialogue with fifteen participants from rural Pierce County who were stratified to comprise a microcosm of the county's rural residents.The Dialogue was commissioned by the Pierce Conservation District and the Puyallup Watershed Initiative. Participants developed recommendations for responding to the local impacts of climate change on public health and disaster and emergency response initiatives. Sincerely, Lisa Crosby I. Forwarded Message Subject:DR&D [Network Calls& Events] Update on Scotland's Climate Assembly Date:Thu, 24 Jun 2021 07:59:00+0000 From:Doreen Grove via Democracy R&D<forum@forum.democracyrd.org> To:lisa.paulb@olympus.net Doreen Grove Doreen June 24 All a fantastic update from Scotland's Climate Assembly team SCOTLAND'S CLIMATE ASSEMBLY REPORT CALLS FOR"MUCH MORE AND MUCH FASTER" PROGRAM OF ACTION TO TACKLE CLIMATE EMERGENCY The full report of Scotland's Climate Assembly was laid in the Scottish Parliament on Wednesday and will be formally handed over to party leaders at Holyrood today. It sets out 81 recommendations agreed by an overwhelming consensus of members for tackling the climate emergency in a fair and effective way.These recommendations cover a broad range of issues including domestic heating, emissions, environmental impact in public procurement, land use and agriculture,taxation, transport(including air travel) and the economy. Among the proposals put forward are plans for a National Nature Service aimed at creating jobs in rewilding and environmental protection, enhanced training and opportunities in green jobs, a program of public education on climate issues, and a single "oyster card" for Scotland that would help integrate the country's transport system.Another recommendation is to retrofit all existing homes by 2030, with all new buildings to be required to meet highly energy efficient Passivhaus standards. In their Statement of Ambition,Assembly members address the whole of Scottish society, including government, businesses, communities and individuals. It gives a detailed overview of the changes members say are now essential. "As a nation we have the opportunity to be pioneers, by taking immediate action to empower our next generations to lead sustainable lives by setting up the framework now," Assembly members write. "As a society we will need to change and adapt to meet the challenges, and recognise that there will be costs. But failure to act now will mean greater expense, and more difficult changes in the future, in order to avoid catastrophic costs to the planet." The Climate Assembly is the second citizens' assembly to be held in Scotland and the first tasked with addressing the issue of climate change. It is a "mini-Scotland" with over 100 members broadly representative of the country in terms of age, gender, household income, ethnicity, geography, rurality, disability, and attitude towards climate change.The Assembly operates independently of government. It is one of the first such bodies anywhere in the world to complete its work entirely online. It is also the first national citizens' assembly to incorporate contributions from children.The Climate Assembly's report published today includes calls to action from over 100 children across Scotland who participated as climate investigators with the Children's Parliament. The Assembly met seven times and members deliberated on evidence from over 100 expert speakers. The remit of the Assembly tasked members with responding to the question: 'How should Scotland change to tackle the climate emergency in an effective and fair way?' 2 The Assembly's recommendations carry weight-Government Ministers must publish a statement outlining how they will respond within six months. Members will then meet for a final time to discuss the ministerial response to their recommendations.

This means individuals drawing unemployment insurance will be required to look for work and document approved job search activities each week in order to remain eligible for unemployment benefits.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. Dear Commissioner Dean: As you are probably aware, last week, a bipartisan group of United States Senators reached preliminary agreement on a federal infrastructure package that neglects most of the vital climate investments and policies contained in President Biden's American Jobs Plan. A group of Washington state legislators is preparing a letter to our Congressional delegation to stress the importance of these critical climate initiatives being included in the final federal infrastructure package — the message, in short: No Climate, No Deal. We would like to provide local elected officials in Washington with the opportunity to weigh in as well by signing on to a similar letter of support (below) to ask our federal representatives to insist that bold climate investments be included in the upcoming federal legislation. As this weekend's heat wave showed us, the climate crisis is upon us now and we simply cannot afford to miss this unique and vital chance to take serious action at the federal level. If you would like to join your colleagues from around the state in signing onto this letter, please reply to me this week and I will add your name and title. Thank you for all you do for Jefferson County and for your commitment to stand up for bold climate action at all levels of government. Thanks --Brian 206-595-5040 Brian Emanuels I Local Advocacy Fellow 'w' h Climate Solutions -Accelerating Clean Energy Solutions to the Climate Crisis ClimateCast I Facebook I Twitter Dear Members of Washington's federal delegation: 1 As local elected officials, we take the climate crisis very seriously as we recognize the impacts it is already having on our communities. We have passed local ordinances and resolutions in support of clean electricity, clean fuels, and clean buildings. We have also used our voices to support progress at the state level on behalf of our communities. Our state government has responded by passing new laws and committing billions in new investments to transition away from fossil fuels. These infrastructure investments—in mass transit,vehicle and ferry electrification, clean buildings, and more—are not only needed to reduce pollution, but they also will create good, green jobs in our communities. Policies passed in Washington State and supported by local jurisdictions, such as the Clean Energy Transformation Act (100% clean electricity standard), serve as a model for federal action. However, Washington cities, counties, and our state government cannot combat the climate crisis alone and so we are reaching out to you, our congressional delegation. Federal action on climate commensurate with our Paris Climate Accord obligations is critical. For us, the climate crisis is not a distant threat; it is already harming our communities. We are already suffering from climate impacts: extreme and historic heat waves, drought, and deadly wildfires.We need strong federal partnership and action to prevent an acceleration of these harms and protect our communities on behalf of those who elected and placed their trust in us. We're tracking the progress of the federal infrastructure package closely and with increasing alarm as it appears that climate-related investments may not be a part of a final agreement. In our view, such a decision is unacceptable. Not including significant climate investments in the federal infrastructure passage will not only gravely hinder our ability to meet our Paris Climate Accord obligations, but it means our communities will see fewer green job opportunities and will further bear the brunt of pollution. A failure to address climate change in this federal infrastructure investment bill would be an environmental, economic, and public health disaster with real ramifications for our communities. We ask you to clearly express the urgency of climate investments—no climate, no deal. Our community members know that robust climate policy, including climate-focused infrastructure investments, strengthens our local economies, creates good jobs, protects our health, and moves us toward environmental justice. Voters placed their trust in us—and in you—to work for a transition to a clean energy economy.When Washingtonians asked their local and state elected officials to rise to the occasion and enact model climate policy,we did. We ask that Congress now join us and do the same because our climate and the health and prosperity of our communities is on the line.

We will resume meetings on September 29th. Upcoming Programs June 30—Cancelled SUMMER BREAK September 29—Clallam County Budget & Road Show FORKS LOGGING & MILL TOURS Please help us spread the word that the Forks Logging & Mill Tours resume on Wednesday, July 7th. We are excited to restart the tours and give the public an educational, and entertaining way to learn about the timber industry. For more information see this link. Reservations are recommended. FORKS OLD FASHIONED 4TH OF JULY Unfortunately, due to the high fire danger, the WEYL fireworks stand will not open this year and the community fireworks show is cancelled. Please see this link for the most up to date schedule, and the PARADE APPLICATION. Printed copies of the schedule are available around town. Have you heard of Pickleball? It is a new event on the schedule! Check out this video for a fun overview of the sport. And learn how the game got its name! DEMO DERBY TICKETS On Monday, the Chamber assisted in pre-selling the 500 derby tickets that were authorized by the County Health Dept. We advertised that we would start selling them at 9am due to the heat. When I arrived at the office at 8:25am there was already quite a long line of people waiting for tickets. I made the executive decision (as I am the executive director) to start selling tickets right away to get people out of the heat. We could have waited until 9am or 10am to sell them, but the fact is, unless you were already in line by 8:40am, you would not have gotten any. Unfortunately, some community members have expressed their displeasure at us not i waiting until we open at 10am to sell tickets. I would never be so heartless as to make people stand in the 100-degree heat for the sake of waiting until 10am when we open. If you arrived at 10am and we had not started selling, you would have been so far back in the line you would not have gotten a ticket. You might have gotten heatstroke though. Please watch the Forks Forum FB page for updated ticket information to be released on Thursday morning.

Grant Funding Secured for Two Historic Farms: Hannan Farm and Natembea Northwest! We're doubly delighted to announce that the Land Trust recently secured grant funding for conservation easements on Natembea Farm and Hannan Farm, which together total over 200 acres of prime farmland in Jefferson County. Every other year, the Washington State Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO) accepts applications for farmland preservation grants. This grant program provides funding to buy development rights on farmland to ensure it remains available for farming in the future as well as to restore natural functions, improving the land's viability for farming. Jefferson Land Trust's 2020 applications for Natembea and Hannan were selected along with 11 other exciting projects from across the state of Washington. 2 Hannan Farm is a historic cattle farm in Center Valley four miles south of Chimacum run by daughter-and-mother team Julia Nottingham and Laurie Hannan. Natembea, owned by Devon and David Pablo Cohn, is the largest farm in Port Townsend, and its creative business model is inspiring.
