Subject: Second Letter from BoCC regarding PC review of Pleasant Harbor MPR Development Regulations
Dear Planning Commissioners, enclosed is a new letter from the Board of County Commissioners dated June 9, 2016,
extending to Mondav, Julv 11, 2015, the deadline for the Planning Commission to transmit to the BoCC its
recommendation on the draft development regulations for the Pleasant Harbor MPR. The added time offsets concerns
that DCD staff illness had caused the Planning Commission to lose momentum during one meeting cycle. The new
deadline allows the Planning Commission to add its scheduled meeting on July 6 as an additional opportunity to
complete its work.

RE: Revlsed Deadllne - Development Retulatlons for Pleasant Harbor Master Planned Resort
Dear Ms. Koan and Planning Commission members,
On May 3,20t6, the Board of County Commissioners wrote to the Planning
Commissioners establishing a June 20, 2016 deadline for the Planning Commission to send the
Board a recommendation on the draft development regulations for the Pleasant Harbor Master
Planned Resort (MPR). The June 20 deadline allowed the Planning Commission more than 45
days to complete its work, including four scheduled meetings on May 4, May 18, June 1, and
June 15.
At the Planning Commission's meeting on June L,2Ot6, Chair Koan noted that the
County's lead staff on the MPR project had been ill before and during one of the Planning
Commission's meetings, and that this had impeded the Planning Commission's progress on
reviewing the development regulations. Chair Koan asked if the County Commissioners would
be willing to extend the deadline to compensate for that absence of staff.
While the Board of County Commissioners must continue to hold the Planning
Commission accountable for completing its work in a timely fashion, we are willing to extend
the deadline to compensate for the absence of staff. Accordingly, the deadline for the Planning
Commission to send to the Board of County Commissioners its recommendations on the draft
development regulations for the Pleasant Harbor Master Planned Resort will be the close of
business on Monday, July 11, 2016. This gives the Planning Commission its scheduled meeting
on July 5 to formulate its recommendation on the draft development regulations.
lf the Planning Commission does not provide a written recommendation to the Board by
July 11, the Board will consider there to be no recommendation from the Planning Commission.
Thereafter, with or without a recommendation from the Planning Commission, the Board will
undertake its own deliberations on the development regulations, may hold its own public
hearing on additional modifications, and intends to adopt a set of final development
regulations for the Pleasant Harbor MPR.

On a separate but parallel track, the County is continuing its consultation with the Port
Gamble S'Klallam Tribe and discussions with the project applicant, and will determine if it will
further refine a development agreement that is separate from the development regulations.
The development agreement, once executed, will be an agreement between the County and
The Statesman Group that governs much more directly the specifics of the development the
Statesman Group and any successors can build inside the MPR. Before the Board adopts a
development agreement, the Board will refer the final proposed development agreement to
the Planning Commission for Planning Commission review and recommendation.
The County Commissioners continue to recognize and value the time and dedication the
Planning Commissioners have devoted to this matter, and look forward to your
recommendation,
Sincerely,
{<"t,1
