REgaTding: PLEASANT HARBOR MARINA AND GOLF RESORT LLC MASTER PLANNED RESORT
CASE No's: MLA08-00 1 88, ZON08-00056
Recommendation: No Action Alternative (Alternative 4)
Members of the Planning Commission:
After reviewing the FSEIS for PLEASANT HARBOR MARINA AND GOLF RESORT LLC MASTER
PLANNED RESORT CASE No's: MLA08-00188, ZON08-00056 my preference is Option #4 No Action. The
FSEIS fails to address and mitigate the complex impacts of Options #1, #2 and #3 on the citizens of Washington
State, Jefferson County and specifically the residents of Brinnon and Black Pt.
The FSEIS provides no requirements for a bond or process to protect the citizens from liability to repair
damages that would be left behind should Statesman's group abandons project.
Further, the fact that the MPR has the potential to compromise the aquifer, local well water, and shorelines with
saltwater intrusion and runoff was not adequately addressed in the FSEIS. And the fact that It is very likely
options 1,2 and 3 would result in adverse impact on the community, marine environment, fish and wildlife, and
commercial and recreation resources was not thoroughly considered by The Statesman Proposal and the FSEIS.
I have owned property in Quilcene for 25 years, bought my home in Brinnon 17 years ago and purchased my
slip at Pleasant Harbor Marina in 1996, 19 years ago. Having purchased a slip at Pleasant Harbor Marina with a
30 year lease and surviving the bankruptcy of the marina and several years later having to negotiate with the
Statesman Group to keep our slip, we have just recently incurred a rather steep assessment for their
improvements to the marina. This is after 2 years of living with construction site because of delayed permitting.

I do not look forward to further to additionally supporting this LLC's profits with my tax dollars, time and loss
of quality of life as our environment is further compromised.
I participated in the county process for the Brinnon sub area plan and was appointed by the County
Commissioners to the Jefferson County Marine Resources Committee in a position for District 3 and served as a
science representative for 2 years.l have taken every opportunity to participate in my government process so
that my concerns to the proposed development at Black Pt., currently by the Pleasant Harbor and Golf Resort
LLC, Statesman Group of Canada, be heard and seriously considered by my representatives.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment.
