TO: Planning Commission
FROM: David Wayne Johnson, Associate Planner
DATE: November 24,2014
RE: Pleasant Harbor Draft Supplemental Environmental lmpact Statement (DSEIS)
At long last the Pleasant Harbor DSEIS is available for review and comment. Part of that review by the
Planning Commission (PC) is understanding what role you play in the process. To that end I have
attached severaldocuments designed to help break down the approval process into manageable steps
The first document is a two page outline of the Phase 2 SEIS Approval Process. We will use this as an
outline for Staffs presentation during the meeting. lt provides some background information on the
project, then breaks down the core elements in the approval process so you may better understand
what they are, and why they are necessary to approval. The outline then details what the Planning
Commission's role is in the process. And lastly, a concise summary of the actions and steps necessary
to approve Phase 2.
The next document is a matrix of the overall MPR approval process by phases. The first page is a
summary of all the phases necessary to build the resort. Notice the little arrow pointing down to Phase
2 - that's where we are today with Phase 1 completed in January 2008. The remaining five pages are
the detail of each Phase. This process matrix is helpful to see the "big picture" of the approval process,
what's involve and why it takes so long. lt also shows who has decision making authority, when the
Public has an opportunity to comment.
The last document is the Phase 2 SEIS Process & Timeline. lt breaks down the Phase 2 process into
individual steps by chronological order in who, what, why and when format with associate dates for
those listed actions. For example, step 7 is the release of the DSEIS and that occurred on November
19,2014. Step 11 is when the Planning Commission would likely hold their official public hearing on
the request to amend the Jefferson County Code. Code cites are also included to help you reference
those sections that are relevant.
lf you have questions on any of this, you should probably save them for the meeting where I can
answer them for the benefit of everyone. We will also have our applicant's representative, Craig Peck
and our SEIS Consultants EA Engineering in attendance to present aspects of the project and answer
any questions you may have.
We look forward to seeing you and discussing this very important project at the December 3d Planning
Commission meeting.
