Pleasant Harbor project
Mr. Johnson
I am a long time slip owner at Pleasant Harbor Marina. I have always wished that some positive developments
would be allowed in the Brinnon area and am happy to finally see this type of development being
persued. Brinnon is a very economically depressed area and is in need of some capital investments that will
bring jobs and promote more tourism to the area.
Several years ago my witb and I bought some land near Brinnon in the hopes of building a house there. After
owning the property for several years and seeing little in the way of economic development occurring we sold
and bought a piece of land in Sequim. We built a home here and now happily live in Sequim.
Our wishes to build and have a home in Brinnon were never realized because we could not see any changes by
much in as though the ounty planning
to come from a
understood. Some of
the local people I had spoken to indicated that an agenda that appeared to
see the area as a place they wished to leave undisturbed, The Pleasant Harbor management and some other
would be developers were apparently denied permits to develop they property commercially and from what I
understand most have given up their plans.
In today's poor economic environment it would seem that the county officials would welcome development. I
would very much like to see the county become more interested in promoting the highway 101 corridor as a
destination attraction rather than a corridor to travel to the Olympic Peninsula or the ferry to Victori4 BC.
Please read this note knowing that I have little personal economic interest in the area but have seen for years the
area as a gem in the rough. i support the plans for development as proposed by the owners of Pleasant Harbor.
