Dear Mr. Johnson,
We are owners of "Slip Licenses" for slips A-3 and B-26 at
Pleasant Harbor Marina.
The present owner, Statesman, is proposing to change the traffic
pattern and parking arrangement at the marina from the "Binding
Site Plan". We believe these changes will cause irreparable
damage to our investment and to the continuing operation of the
marina, to the detriment of the local economy. All of the other
marinas that we know of in the Northwest have adequate off
loading and parking areas adjacent to the marina. Statesman is
proposing to use a shuttle system to get from parking areas off site
to the ramp heads for off-loading gear and supplies. Most active
boaters will not put up with this type inconvenience and will
simply move their boats elsewhere. Those of us who own slip
"Licenses" will lose our investment.
We urge you to NOT allow changes but to maintain the traffic
pattern on the Binding Site Plan with the exception of upgrades to
the road system to comply to the "Plan" ; for Fire and Safety; and
to maximize Parking.
We appreciate your consideration in this matter. Due to our
investment, we feel very strongly about this change Statesman is
proposing.
Sincere y,
Lar and Laurel Roberts
