Jttrrffiut;0{H0t0Thanks Diane
I am truly in hopes that the hearings go well. I know that in the past some of the county
officials had a problem with developments in the Brinnon area. I'm not sure I ever
understood their reasons except that they frowned on much of any kind of economic
investments that would promote tourism and yield jobs and a more positive image for
those who investigate the idea of settling there. lf my memory serves me correctly
there have been several folks interested in staring businesses in the area only to be
denied permits and or zone changes required for those businesses.
Several years ago my wife, Carol and l, bought land near Brinnon in the hopes of
building a place there. One of the reasons we did not was due to the fact that there
were few services available and shopping was a nightmare. lf we would have wanted
to do some shopping we would have had to drive many miles to do so. We also felt
that given more services and attractions in the area more people would want to have
boat slips and make the area more inviting to visitors. The marina has been moving
slowly to add attractions for transient boaters but as you know their is very little in the
way of attractions for them to want to visit. I see what the marina owners doing as a
very positive improvement for the area.
I wish I could attend the hearing meetings to give my opinions but that isn't possible
right now. I can only hope that all of those in favor of proposed improvements will be
sufficient to convince those who make the decisions to support the move for the golf
course and any other proposed developments.
