It is an issue that perpetually plagues the minds of leadership and IT professionals alike. As data and infrastructure grows and becomes more complicated, so do the threats facing digital security. And, while numerous security solutions are available on the market, many are costly, slow- moving options that strain limited budgets and leave counties vulnerable in the meantime. Ednetics has partnered with WSAC to help counties explore, develop, and implement security solutions focusing on data integrity and maintaining operational continuity. WSAC and Ednetics are hosting a Connect and Learn on Thursday, August 19 at 12:00 pm to discuss the best ways to use ARPA funding for cyber security.

Despite the best efforts of our Operations staff, particularly those in our Dispatch Center, we have a severe shortage of crewing available for tomorrow, Friday, August 13. By combining crews, we will be able to provide a limited level of service, but will be on one-boat service on the Clinton/Mukilteo and Edmond/Kingston routes tomorrow until mid-afternoon. Additional routes may also be affected. We continue to work on solutions, both short-term for tomorrow, and longer-term, but as explained before, we face significant crewing shortages. We understand the impact this will have on our passengers, especially on a summer Friday, and appreciate their patience while we work to increase service. Customers are being alerted through social and traditional media, and passenger alerts. Best, John John B.

Dear Ms. Dean, As your constituent and your boss, I demand that you do everything in your power to ban Vaccine Mandates and Passports.This is an unconstitutional deprivation of liberty without due process and is a critical issue to me. It is unconscionable that Americans freedom of movement would be threatened in an attempt to coerce people to get vaccinated, even as Anthony Fauci is urging masks be worn by the vaccinated and unvaccinated.

Good Morning,Jefferson County Board of County Commissioners and Planning Commission Members(David W. Johnson, please forward to other PC members): As most you may know, Lorraine Loomis, Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission Chair, passed away this past week. This(see link below)was the last editorial she wrote, and it is very thought-provoking. As a member of the Jefferson County Planning Commission and as well as serving as a Washington Fish and Wildlife Commissioner, I share her concerns, and believe her points about"net ecological gain" are right on the money. We need to do better to save our rivers, streams, NW salmon and the ecosystems they support.The recent dire news regarding the climate crisis should make us all resolve to take action.

Examples of local groups like Jefferson County's Local Investment Opportunity Network(LION) is other communities Begin forwarded message: 14444' MI H SHUMAN MICHAELH . • COMMENTARY ON COMMUNITY ECONOMICS 1 lk ip ei t > r..r a / t & h g it Every Community Needs a Neighborhood Exchange Three years ago, the Maryland Neighborhood Exchange was just a dream. We envisioned creating a website listing great local investment opportunities in Baltimore and mobilizing residents to invest in them. Here's what's happened since: The Exchange has helped 44 Baltimore businesses successfully raise $3.3 million from nearly 6,000 investors. And these numbers will significantly grow in the years ahead. Thanks to the Exchange, the future of Baltimore's economy lies, not just with bankers, hedge fund operators, or VCs, but in the wisdom of its 600,000 residents. The "we" has been a partnership of Neighborhood Associates Corporation, run by Dr. Bobby Austin, and Community Wealth Builders, led by Stephanie Geller. The partners also have included several dozen community leaders we tapped for advice—fund managers, foundation program officers, incubator coordinators, entrepreneurship specialists, and policymakers. 2 To understand the importance of the Exchange, it's useful to go back to the origins of investment crowdfunding. During the 2008 financial crisis, I wrote an article for the Federal Reserve proposing a $100 exemption in securities law to jumpstart struggling small businesses. At a time of economic turmoil, I argued, every American should be able to invest as much as $100 in any local business with no legal paperwork whatsoever. Up until that point, a local business often had to spend $25,000 or more in legal disclosures before it could accept even a penny from grassroots investors. One attorney ran with the idea and submitted a proposed rule change allowing the $100 exemption to the Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC). A petition drive then delivered hundreds of letters to the SEC supporting the change. The SEC duly 9 ignored our advice, but all was not lost. Congress picked up the ball and passed the JOBS Act in 2012, creating a framework for investment crowdfunding. Any business could raise up to $1 million, any grassroots investor could invest up to $2,200, but the transaction had to be done on a regulated federally licensed portal. (The SEC recently raised the offering ceiling to $5 million.) My concern then was that moving local investment relationships onto national electronic platforms would weaken the relationship between a small business and its investors. Why not just permit local fans to talk freely with their favorite businesses, face to face, and allow them to invest modestly as they wish without lawyers? Fast forward nine years, and I must concede that investment crowdfunding has worked better than I predicted. More than a million Americans have now participated, investing $1.1 billion in over 4,000 companies. The average successful crowdfunding raise is $376,000, with the average investor putting in about $800. The entrepreneurs who have been most successful are women and people of color, precisely those individuals whom the conventional capital markets historically redlined out. Crowdfund Capital Advisors estimates these raises have created 124,120 jobs. And all of this occurred with remarkably little fraud. Despite these successes, my initial reservation about the JOBS Act remains. How can we strengthen the local relationships between small businesses and their fans? The national crowdfunding portals all claim to love community 3 business, but in fact (with a few exceptions) their connection with any given community is shallow. Weirdly, this pattern may be replicating the tragic history of stock markets in the United States. In the nineteenth century, stock markets popped up in regions across the country to make risk capital more available to promising local businesses. Over the last generation, however, all these regional exchanges were gobbled up by two national exchanges—the New York Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ. This centralization meant that tools that once capitalized regional businesses now focus exclusively on global corporations. That critique is what inspired the Maryland Neighborhood Exchange. In practical terms, here's what the Exchange does: If you're a business in Baltimore looking for capital—especially if you're a BiPOC entrepreneur—we can help you prepare for successful crowdfunding. We recently helped SoFusion Cafe, pictured above, raise nearly $30,000. If you're an investor in Baltimore looking for local opportunities, you can easily review our updated listing of local offerings (from the national crowdfunding portals). And if you're a neighborhood looking to revitalize, we can work with you to help launch local investment events. The Maryland Neighborhood Exchange offers a model of what every community in the United States—including yours—should do. For very little cost, you can create a listing of local companies looking for investment dollars on the national crowdfunding portals and provide your neighbors an easy place to review opportunities to invest locally. Allow me to toast everyone who made this possible: Thanks to NAC's President Bobby Austin and its Board Chair, Marilyn Melkonian, President of Telesis, for giving me the company time to develop the Exchange; to the Abell and T Rowe Price Foundations for supporting our expansion over the past year; to the Market Center and Southwest Baltimore neighborhood associations who were partners in local experimentation; and to Stephanie Geller for helping dozens of businesses in Baltimore take advantage of the Exchange. 4 If you're interested in starting an Exchange like this in your own community, let me know.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. Greetings Commissioner Sullivan, During July,the Center for American Progress(CAP) and the Center for American Progress Action Fund (CAP Action) worked to shed a light on the harsh effects of recent voter suppression laws in many states and amplified the voices of state legislators who are leading the fight to protect the right to vote across the country.We are committed to pushing this issue to the forefront of the policy debate and work in solidarity with all state and local officials who are the last line of defense against voter suppression. On July 20 we were joined by Stacey Abrams and a panel of state legislators who discussed this very issue. If you missed the conversation, you can watch it here. In addition, with children returning to school across the country, CAP recently released an assessment of trends related to school reopenings: Remote Learning and School Reopenings:What Worked and What Didn't.We hope that you-find this information helpful.

COMMISSIONERS Many of us recognize that it is not just our county or state, but that much of our country is facing the problem of lack of affordable housing and places to live. We can think globaly, but must act locally. Some of us, both governmental and private (like OlyCap)are giving our best energies in combating this error of the age. Our family mission is to do all we can to provide affordable dwelling sites,counselling and opportunity. In accord with the Affordable Housing and Homeless Housing Task Force Report (2019-2024),we,too, believe many Jefferson County Codes and zoning regulations create obstacles to providing affordable spaces and units. I cite just two examples that we are currently facing: 1) We want to upgrade old septic systems. Why not make an emergency order which allows 'as built' units? The President of the United States enacts emergency orders as does our Governor. Cannot our local County CEO's do the same? 2) Several weeks ago we submitted a SPADD permit for review. The prior owner of this parcel had a SPADD approved (and for a much larger house)which because of a death in his family,the permit expired and property sold. Ours is a smaller footprint,the septic,water and power are already on site. I estimate a 15 minute review by a planner would be sufficient to approve the current request. The delay only holds back progress. Why? And more,this time in accord with the Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan (2018- date)which explicitly states the Commissioners will promote creative thinking and actions to meet the 'Housing'goals and needs of the county. This we are attempting to do. Where is your open support? Why cling to outdated and restrictive codes, permits, fees and long delays? Actions delayed are actions denied, and this causes harm to those in need. Once again,this is an open plea for your support and action. Re-42Ily,, Jame f.

Greetings County Commissioners, Dr Allison Berry, and Willie Bence, KPTZ received many questions this past week. I did edit out comments for brevity's sake and attempted to highlight the questions themselves for Dr Berry. Many listeners expressed their thanks for the continued updates by Dr Berry. Thank you, Lynn Sorensen KPTZ Virus Watch Team 1) I went to the Concert on the Dock on Thursday. The outdoor event drew hundreds of people. I was there for maybe 15 minutes. I'm fully vaccinated. Since I was outdoors,I didn't wear a mask.Now I'm hearing from some people who say that large crowd is a potential super spreader event. Should I be worried? 2)With the Delta variant on the loose, is 6 feet still enough distance for social separation? Should that apply to outdoors when vaccination status of nearby persons is unknown? Should more distance be necessary when people are singing or yelling? 3)Is it still reasonably safe for small groups of totally vaccinated people to meet together indoors without masks and without social distance? I am part of a group of 8 Jefferson County residents in our 60's, 70's and 80's, all from separate households, all fully vaccinated. 4)Why are you, as our Health Officer, not requiring everyone to be masked in indoor public spaces,particularly stores and businesses where everyone needs to go. (This question was signed by two people, one who identified himself as a pulmonary/critical care MD.) 5)I have heard that national pundits are blaming the Co-vid surge on immigrants being allowed across our border. Can you set the record straight? 6)Dr. Allison Berry stated last week that there is a massive amount of data on the safety of the vaccine showing that there are no negative effects on the fetus or child. I am wondering if Dr. Allison Berry could share the sources of this data? Specifically, I would like to see sources of data showing that there are no negative effects on the health of the fetus or child. 7)I read the following news article and it seems like it is from a legitimate source but I'm not sure. It states that monoclonal antibodies are available to anyone who has been diagnosed with covid whether or not they are hospitalized. Is this available in Jefferson County or somewhere near? Is this a controversial treatment? 1 https://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2021/08/11/i-thought-patients-would-be-breaking-down-my-door-effective-covid- treatment-is-available-in-minnesota/ 8) Can you talk about what the treatment improvements have been for those suffering from covid? Is the death rate decreased since doctors have had 1.5 years of treating covid patients? 9)What is the quarantine protocol for people working at businesses where someone is diagnosed with a breakthrough Covid Delta variant case? 2 jeffbocc From: ptcodt@mg2.lglcrm.net on behalf of 'Brian Anderson' <ptcodt@mg2.1glcrm.net> Sent: Friday, August 13, 2021 2:21 PM To: jeffbocc Subject: Olympic Discovery Trail - Summer& Fall Upcoming Events CAUTION:This email originated from outside your organization.

The order will go into effect Monday, August 16th and applies to all businesses and government offices within the two counties. Masks are not required but are recommended in outdoor settings where large groups are gathering close together. Masks are additionally not required but are recommended for children between the ages of 2 and 5. The new masking order comes in response to the alarming growth in COVID-19 cases in the region and the rise of the highly infectious Delta Variant. In Jefferson County, COVID-19 case rates have quadrupled in the last month from 47 to 197 cases per 100,000 residents. In neighboring Clallam County, cases rates have risen five-fold from 63 to an unprecedented 333 cases per 100,000 residents. "Jefferson and Clallam Counties are experiencing the highest rates of COVID-19 transmission that we ever have in this pandemic," Dr. Berry said. "We are at a critical juncture and we must act fast to control transmission of this virus to keep our communities safe and functioning." Masks along with vaccination remain the most effective methods we have to control the COVID-19 pandemic. Both are safe and highly effective at preventing transmission, hospitalization and death from the COVID-19 virus. In Washington State, 94% of hospitalizations and deaths in 2021 due to COVID-19 were among the unvaccinated. 69% of Jefferson County residents have completed vaccination against COVID- 19. Even though that percentage is one of the highest in the state, it still means that thousands of our neighbors, friends, family, and co-workers, especially young children and those whose immune systems, cannot fully respond to the vaccine, remain vulnerable to infection from COVID-19 and its variants. "We must come together to build our community resilience against this virus," urged Dr. Berry. "That means using all the highly effective tools that we have at our disposal now. It is not too late. If you get vaccinated today, you will protect yourself, your family, and your community in the weeks to come. If you put a mask on today, you will make a difference today."

Four Changes by Gary Snyder C$ R� Ir4T wit ! IIIIJ(I1tJ I F 101,'d 1p 111II IbKl 11 lli II,II IIIIII1919IIC111 IF Jlil' ', t .it ' 1 ! Just yesterday and for the first time I heard a poem written 5o years ago by Gary Snyder.Its message is just as prescient now and even more pertinent to the situation humanity is in today.Discovering such a gem as this is bittersweet.Certainly it lifts the spirit but one can't help but wonder"what if'humanity had not 10 squandered the past five decades and had turned away from its headlong rush towards extinction.As we face an anthropogenic collapse of our ecosystem and reconsider our place in nature,we hear words from half a century earlier: "Revolutionary consciousness is to be found among the most ruthlessly exploited classes:animals,trees,water,air,grasses." Snyder outlines our position,situation,goals and practical actions in four areas.i)Population:the population in 197o was less than half what it is today,and suggests the carrying capacity was half or less of that.2)Pollution:atmospheric CO2 was 325 ppm in 197o and is 414 now.3)Consumption,and 4)Transformation.Please hear the wisdom of Gary Snyder here.

Dear Commissioners: First of all I wish to apologize for the technical issues I was experiencing at this morning's BOCC meeting. With the severe echo I was hearing, I wasn't able to follow your instructions to eliminate it. Thank you for your patience. I understand that the BOCC does not commonly engage directly in or oversee the established procedures for land use issues such as the proposed residential development surrounding the Discovery Bay Golf Course. However, I wanted you all to be aware of the proposal described below which I plan to present at next Monday's hearing regarding the proposed development. I have sent my concerns regarding this issue to you all previously and wanted to reiterate my view before the hearing next week. The critical part of this issue for me, as a board member and vice president of the Peninsula Trails Coalition (PTC) for Jefferson County, is the public safety aspect regarding the proposed vehicle crossing of the existing Larry Scott (LST) section of the Olympic Discovery Trail (ODT), providing access to the "Lily Pond" cluster of lots at the corner of Douglas Way and 5. Discovery Rd. This design seems very ill-advised indeed. With the proposed six lots in this cluster, each of which could include an ADU, there could be between 10 to 20 vehicles using the proposed "Bonnie Lane" entry to the cluster with multiple trips per day. Simultaneously, literally hundreds of trail users could be crossing this road throughout the day. I have personally counted a rate of usage of the LST/ODT at roughly 100 people per hour on some days. Allowing this level of a mixture of traffic seems certainly destined for tragic accidents. The volume of traffic on the Trail will only increase in the coming years. With the rising popularity of cycling in general, the wave of increased sales and usage of electric assist bicycles, the existing popularity of horseback riding in the area, an inevitably increasing population in our area, and a general increased focus on physical fitness and good health, a much greater volume and diversity of traffic is a virtual certainty. The ODT is part of a national trend of long distance public trails that is sweeping the country. The ODT is itself a portion of the Pacific NW Trail, stretching from Glacier National Park in Montana, across northern Idaho and Washington and across Puget Sound to the Quimper Peninsula. It is also part of the US Bike Route System, providing a network of cycling routes criss-crossing the nation. But perhaps most significantly, it has been designated as the western terminus of GART, the Great American Rail Trail, being developed from Washington D. C. across the entire country to the Pacific Ocean here on the Olympic Peninsula. Already over 50% complete, it is routed through twelve states and thousands of cities, towns, and communities on its way here. This rising national focus on the development of safe, non-motorized travel and recreational options demonstrates the inevitable increase in traffic through our community. In order to judiciously plan for it, I believe we must make very i studied and careful decisions about how we meld together residential and recreational and transportation interests of the public here. My proposed solution to this safety concern, in addition to retaining the rural nature of the Trail itself, is this: Reroute the Trail to the west of the Lily Pond cluster of the lots proposed. (See blue dashed line on attached map.) This would require the County to abandon the existing 30' easement providing for the current location of the LST running next to the lower (east of the creek crossing Douglas Way) section of Douglas Way. The lots could then be resurveyed to move them forward (closer to 5. Discovery Rd.), providing up to 30' of land between the new rear (west) property lines of the cluster and the required 150' wetland buffer boundary surrounding the creek. Even if a full 30' could not be acquired outside the creek buffer, a precedent to narrow the buffer by 10' or 20' feet already exists at the current crossing of 5. Discovery Rd. by the Trail as indicated on the map. This additional space could then be established as an easement which would provide ample room to reroute the LST through a much safer location, providing a much more pleasant and bucolic experience for both Trail users and residents of the new lots. The map also indicates a bridge across the creek to replace the existing routing of the Trail traffic onto a road which no doubt will also experience increased traffic volume in coming years. The primary purpose, of course, would be a complete elimination of the dangerous frequent congestion to be experienced at the Bonnie Lane trail crossing. This design benefits lot owners by not only avoiding conflicts with all types of trail traffic, but also allows each of them their own private entry to the LST without themselves being in conflict with vehicular traffic from their surrounding neighbors. The PTC, over its 33 year lifespan as a registered non-profit organization, promoting and advocating for the ODT, has consistently striven for the development of an above all safe and secure, non- motorized, shared use, world class pathway for the use and enjoyment of the public. I sincerely believe this suggested modification of the proposed development design falls squarely within the intention and mission of our organization, ultimately benefiting all stakeholders in this project. It benefits the developer not only by shortening the required development of the Trail route, but by also making the arrangement of the lot accesses much more attractive to potential purchasers, providing a natural buffer between themselves and trail traffic as opposed to both visual and auditory distractions from the Trail. And it benefits all users of the LST/ODT with added safety, a much more pleasant passage by the natural setting of a creek, being a naturally buffered route from the homesites also, and a shorter, more direct route past the cluster. Within the established County procedures for dealing with a PRRD such as the one presented here, I strongly encourage you to make every effort possible to guide my above described suggestion through to fruition. I thank you very much for receiving my comments on this matter. Sincerely, Jeff L Selby Vice President, Jefferson County Peninsula Trails Coalition 360/531-2370 2 1 s 2.0 ZryQ ei jS2.a k E.

HSN August Newsletter ,600.4 I DEAS ANO 4L�\ kFSO ?= GPr lid i s 2 o Hotising p r.,„ Solutions Oe y. Network4� �OEEFERSON COMA Dear friends, In case you hadn't noticed, housing continues to be the hottest topic around, and not just because it's summer. At HSN we are hearing stories of housing exasperation, desperation, and disappointment, like a school employee whose landlord is selling and decided to take an all-cash offer instead of selling to her. Employers have the same stories; the hospital has over one hundred open positions and reports that it is almost impossible for new healthcare providers to move here due to the unavailability and high cost of housing. We need solutions on all fronts. In her recent Housing Hub column, Justine highlighted steps that the City of Port Townsend can take to allow more affordable types of housing to be built. There is a City Council public i hearing today, August 16th, at 6:30pm to discuss several code changes that will help achieve these goals. The proposed changes include allowing zero-lot line development (enabling duplexes) and lowering the minimum lot size per home in a Planned Unit Development. Read more here, find out how to participate here, and most importantly, send in your public comments to publiccomment ,citvofpt.us before 6:30pm. In this newsletter we have highlighted several stories of how community members themselves are making a positive impact, through building Accessory Dwelling Units as affordable rentals, renting out rooms in their homes, and initiating more community action for housing. Keep reading below! Onward together, Justine Gonzalez-Berg Kellen Lynch Network Director Network Weaver Updates & Announcements • The City is seeking public comment about the tiny shelter village called "Pat's Place" that will be placed in Port Townsend and managed by Bayside Housing Services.

More info below. 2 1 • Upcoming Webinar: Building the Case for Backyard Apartments Housing Action Team Spotlight: Building ADUs as Affordable Rentals One of HSN's Housing Action Teams has recently celebrated a major accomplishment; the ground breaking of their first Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) pilot project. This team of volunteers joined forces to increase affordable rental opportunities through helping community members build ADUs, and they assessed many potential ADU projects before connecting with Rebecca and Andrew Byers, who have an ideal location for building an ADU as well as the dedication and time to make it happen. Part of what is being 'piloted' is the funding mechanism; the project is being partially financed by local individuals who are part of the Local Investor Opportunity Network (LION). Volunteer videographer Dennis Daneau has captured the story here: t 3 I Andrew and Rebecca Byers share why they are building an ADU as a rental unit. In the process of assessing potential ADU projects, the Housing Connections team of volunteers has gained knowledge and insight into the many steps of building an ADU, which they are translating into a document that others can use as a resource to navigate everything from financing an ADU project to design options for the unit. We will be excited to share that document when it is complete in the fall. • Story of Impact - Housing AmeriCorps Workers Every year our community is served by AmeriCorps workers who help build homes with Habitat for Humanity, restore natural habitat at Fort Worden, and facilitate programs for the Marine Science Center. Each of these organizations, and others, are struggling to find housing for their incoming AmeriCorps workers and interns. If you have an extra bedroom or other unit of housing available, consider renting to one of these folks at a rate that is affordable for their modest stipends. Contact these organizations directly, or reach out to HSN at iustine(c�icfgives.org and we'll connect you. An HSN volunteer spoke to one local homeowner who has rented a room in her home to thepast 15 years. Here's a piece of her story: workers forrY AmeriCorps "When married, this widowed Port Townsend resident had an 'open social house.'So when she settled into her new house, she thought about home-sharing. Although she didn't need the income, she felt it wasn't fair to use more space than she needed. She got off to a good start with the first couple of renters and so home-sharing has become a regular part of her life..." Read the full story here. 4 City Council Candidate Forum on Housing HIV r w; 'gr , HSN hosted a City Council Candidate Forum on housing that engaged our candidates and audience in considering tough questions about how government can make a greater impact on housing. HSN received over 70 questions leading up to the form indicating the immense community engagement in this issue. Many of the candidates' responses underscored the need for more types of housing in Port Townsend. The full audio from the event can be found on our website, here. Reimagining Sanitation County residents know the immense burden of septic systems, in terms of costs, space required, and upkeep. Septic systems are cost-prohibitive to housing development in the county, limit the ability for homeowners to build ADUs, and can cause environmental health issues when not properly maintained. There are a few people interested in launching a new Housing Action Team focused on non-septic sanitation options for county residents, and they are seeking a few more interested indivdivals to help with this work. The aim is to: 5 • Research contemporary technologies for dry toilet and grey water systems • Provide education about these systems and current code to permit them • Advocate for more affordable systems that enhance household hygiene and environmental health If you are interested in joining this work, contact kellen@jcfgives.org. Eviction Moratorium Update The federal (Centers for Disease Control or CDC) eviction moratorium is now valid until October 3, 2021. If a tenant is behind on rent and wants protection from eviction, they must send their landlord a declaration about their financial hardship. To see if you qualify for protection under the federal eviction moratorium, read the Declaration form. If you qualify, sign it and deliver it to your landlord. In Washington, tenants may also be eligible for statewide eviction protections. Now is the time for landlords and tenants to work together to: • Access OlyCAP's rental assistance resources. • Understand their legal rights. • Negotiate a reasonable rent repayment plan with mediation help from the Peninsula Dispute Resolution Center. We have updated our eviction prevention resource page with more information and helpful links. Please read and share widely.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. I often walk my dog on the Larry Scott trail and I am growing weary of dodging speeding electric motor bicycles. The City of Port Townsend's "Non-Motorized Transportation Plan" (Ordinance 2643 &Ordinance 3056) begins with a value statement to "create a safe and pleasant environment for walking and bicycling..." Although I have both walked and biked all 3 segments of the LST, from Boat Haven to Milo Curry, I most often walk on the first stretch from Boat Haven to Thomas Street.This is the least safe segment of the trail as it pertains to electric motor bicycle traffic. I have witnessed e-bikes on the LST that require little to no pedaling.Today a motorized stand-up scooter whizzed by me. It doesn't even have pedals. Often bicyclists (both muscle powered and motorized) on the LST travel in packs.They frequently do not follow the trail etiquette signs that encourage bikers to defer to walkers.They go too fast(especially the e-bikes)particularly on the downhill segment from Thomas Street to Boat Haven, causing potential harm to pedestrians and their pets. One big pleasure associated with walking on a non-motorized trail is not having to watch out for and worry about vehicles. Walking the LST, I am looking over my shoulder all the time. Often,the trail behind me is clear for quite a distance.Then, because some bicycles, particularly electric motor bicycles, are traveling so fast, they seem to "appear from nowhere." If one looks up the definition of"e-bike" or"electric bicycle" the word "motor" appears every time. E-bikes are motorized vehicles, regardless of whether one has to do some pedaling or shifting.The LST is designated as"non- motorized." These vehicles should be prohibited on the Larry Scott Trail (and all other City of PT and Jefferson County "non-motorized" trails). Citizens have been largely ignored regarding he presence of motorized bicycles on trails; the community should have the opportunity to weigh in on the decision-making by way of public comment. Better safety signage at the trailhead and along the trail is warranted. 1 Climate change and COVID are dramatically altering our lives. My wife and I are staying close to home,grateful for the many wonderful trails and beaches we have accessible to us. Unfortunately, I sometimes find walking on the Larry Scott Trail both unpleasurable and unsafe. Thank you.

Section 21 Termination A. Termination for Convenience. WSDOT and/or the CONTRACTOR may suspend or terminate this AGREEMENT, in whole or in part, and all or any part of the financial assistance provided herein,at any time by written notice to the other PARTY.

Written Jefferson Transit Page 6 of 14 PTD0234 notification must set forth the reasons for such termination, the effective date, and in case of a partial termination the portion to be terminated. However if, in the case of partial termination, WSDOT determines that the remaining portion of the award will not accomplish the purposes for which the award was made, WSDOT may terminate the award in its entirety. The PARTIES may terminate this AGREEMENT for convenience for reasons including, but not limited to,the following: 1. The requisite funding becomes unavailable through failure of appropriation or otherwise; 2. WSDOT determines, in its sole discretion, that the continuation of the Project would not produce beneficial results commensurate with the further expenditure of funds; 3.

WSDOT may suspend or terminate this AGREEMENT for default, in whole or in part, and all or any part of the financial assistance provided herein, at any time by written notice to the CONTRACTOR, if the CONTRACTOR materially breaches or fails to perform any of the requirements of this AGREEMENT, including: 1.

C. WSDOT, in its sole discretion may, in the case of a termination for breach or default, allow the CONTRACTOR ten (10) business days, or such longer period as determined by WSDOT, in which to cure the defect. In such case, the notice of termination will state the time period in which cure is permitted and other appropriate conditions. If the CONTRACTOR fails to remedy to WSDOT's satisfaction the breach or default within the timeframe and under the conditions set forth in the notice of termination,WSDOT shall have the right to terminate this AGREEMENT without any further obligation to CONTRACTOR. Any such termination for default shall not in any way operate Jefferson Transit Page 7 of 14 PTD0234 to preclude WSDOT from also pursuing all available remedies against CONTRACTOR and its sureties for said breach or default. D. In the event that WSDOT elects to waive its remedies for any breach by CONTRACTOR of any covenant, term or condition of this AGREEMENT, such waiver by WSDOT shall not limit WSDOT's remedies for any succeeding breach of that or of any other term, covenant, or condition of this AGREEMENT.

Such payment shall in no way impair or prejudice any right or remedy available to WSDOT with respect to any breach or default. Section 24 Limitation of Liability A.

The indemnification and hold harmless provision shall survive termination of this AGREEMENT. B. The CONTRACTOR shall be deemed an independent contractor for all purposes, and the employees of the CONTRACTOR or its subcontractors and the employees thereof, shall not in any manner be deemed to be the employees of WSDOT. C.

Section 26 WSDOT Advice The CONTRACTOR bears complete responsibility for the administration and success of the Project as defined by this AGREEMENT and any amendments thereto.

We are very impressed with the thoroughness, care and compassion that is part of Pat's Place. Best regards, Karen and Dan Quinn-Shea 1 8/16/21 Dear Jefferson County Board of Commissioners, We are writing regarding the construction of Pat's Place. My husband and I moved to Port Townsend several years ago. We have moved from Seattle and are very aware of the issue of homelessness. We have been touched by the thoughtfulness of people in Port Townsend. The effort to meet the needs of members of the community, especially those who are homeless or underhoused, reinforced our love for our new home of Port Townsend. As we all know, housing in Port Townsend has become more expensive and more limited. We are beginning to learn of the creative ways Port Townsend is responding to homelessness. Bayside Housing and Services is amazing. We were also thrilled to hear about Peter's Place and Pat's Place. We saw the construction of Tiny Houses and it's encouraging to see the community working together to help those in need. It was helpful to meet Damian Hodges, who was introduced to us in the article in the Port Townsend Leader. The possibility of a home gives hope, increases chances for employment and allows the possibility of Damian and others to be a part of a supportive community. We are very grateful to call Port Townsend our home. We are thankful and very supportive of the work of Bayside and others, whose focus is to address and respond to the issue of homelessness.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links,especially from unknown senders. Dear Chairperson Dean I've just read an exciting update from Whatcom County,Washington, [1]a small community with two large oil refineries that has recently adopted land use and environmental protection laws to protect the community from the risk of further expansion of these industries. Fossil fuels are inherently dangerous to our communities.They risk spills, leaks, explosions, air and water pollution.And continued expansion of fossil fuel use is simply incompatible with a stable climate. It's great to see local government leaders in Whatcom County doing something about it. It would be even better to see us taking similar action here in our community. Stand.earth,one of the organizations that helped to develop the policies in Whatcom County, is now working to help more communities take similar action. Through the SAFE Cities program,they are helping local governments adopt policies that phase out fossil fuels and fast track clean, more efficient energy solutions —they even have resources specifically for elected officials available here: https://www.stand.earth/SAFE-resources/resources-local-government-leaders You can also join their network of elected officials and staff working to phase out fossil fuels by emailing SAFE@stand.earth. Not every community has an oil refinery, but every local government can take meaningful actions. Other communities are passing policies that stop fossil fuel expansion by limiting fossil fuel use in new building construction, banning new gas stations,electrifying public transit,and so much more. It would mean a lot to me to know that our local government officials are ready to take the climate crisis and public health and safety issues seriously.Will you commit to passing SAFE City policies here in our community?

A Holistic Approach to Digital Security for Counties: Prioritizing Infrastructure, Cyber, and Information Security Updates and Practices All organizations, large, small, private, and public, share an ever-growing problem. It is an issue that perpetually plagues the minds of leadership and IT professionals alike. As data and infrastructure grows and becomes more complicated, so do the threats facing digital security. And, while numerous security solutions are available on the market, many are costly, slow- moving options that strain limited budgets and leave counties vulnerable in the meantime. Ednetics has partnered with WSAC to help counties explore, develop, and implement security solutions focusing on data integrity and maintaining operational continuity. WSAC and Ednetics are hosting a Connect and Learn on Thursday, August 19 at 12:00 pm to discuss the best ways to use ARPA funding for cyber security.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. 01. k N EWS It Washington State Redistricting Commission RE For immediate release: August 17, 2021 Contact: Jamie Nixon, Communications Director 360-742-2854 With the 2020 Redistricting Data (Public Law 94-171) Summary Files from the U.S. Census Bureau now in hand, the Washington State Redistricting Commission (WSRC) met on Monday, August 16 and agreed to a schedule of important dates and deadlines that will lead to the delivery of final legislative and congressional district maps by Monday, November 15. "After having received the official data from the Census Bureau, we knew it would be important to settle on additional dates that will govern our processes so the public knows what they can expect from their redistricting commission as it moves towards the final deadline," said Commission Chair Sarah Augustine. "Due to delays related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the timeline is compressed in a way that leaves us less than three months to develop and publicize draft maps, receive public feedback, and agree on final maps." Important dates to note: • End of August— DrawYourWA mapping tool will be live with the official Census Bureau redistricting data and the state's adjusted data based on relocation of persons in state custody to their last known address for purposes of redistricting. We will inform the public as soon as the data has been uploaded. i Mak. • Tuesday, September 21 — Commissioners will each release their proposed state legislative district map. • Tuesday, September 28 — Commissioners will each release their proposed congressional district map. • Tuesday, October 5 (7 p.m.) — Statewide Virtual Public Outreach Meeting to receive feedback on state legislative map proposals. • Saturday, October 9 (10 a.m.) - Statewide Virtual Public Outreach Meeting to receive feedback on congressional map proposals. • Friday, October 22 — Deadline to ensure full consideration of third-party map submissions by the Commission. • Monday, November 15 (11:59 p.m.) — Deadline for Commission to submit final maps to the Legislature. The PL 94-171 data, originally expected by April 1, 2021, was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. By law, Washington state uses the PL data to draft new legislative and congressional district maps that will apply to elections over the next decade. The law also directs the Redistricting Commission to relocate individuals in state custody to their last known address for purposes of redistricting. Data experts are currently unpacking the data so that it can be uploaded to the mapping system that the commissioners will use to draft maps. The same data will be available for those who wish to use the DrawYourWA mapping tool to draft and send third-party map submissions for the commission's consideration. "For the first time, the public can log on to a mapping tool found at www.redistrictinq.wa.gov and draft their own visions of what our legislative and congressional districts should look like," Augustine said. "We look forward to seeing how the people of Washington think their districts should be drawn with the official data." Given the compressed timeline for drafting and negotiating legislative and congressional district maps, the commission suggests that those submitting third-party maps do so by October 22 so that commissioners have enough time to review and consider the submissions. Despite the suggested deadline, the public will be able to send their comments regarding the WSRC's work right up to November 15 using one of many methods found at the "How to Participate" page on the WSRC website. ### You can find more information about the Washington State Redistricting Commission at our website.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. To Whom it may concern; I am writing to you regarding the proposed development at Discovery Bay Golf Course.The proposed is 1.5 miles from our home. In 2005 the proposed builders requested 96 homes to be built and it failed. Now the proposed is 48 with a ADU which brings the total back to 96. Moreover, the county presently disallows building more than 1 home on a 5 Acre parcel. the surrounding subdivisions are one home per 5 acres. My question is why would the county approve this while at the same time not allowing other nearby residents approval to subdivide their 5 acre property. If the project is approved, enforcing the guidelines of the surrounding subdivisions would make a smaller impact, thus reducing the amount of homes approved, 1 home for every 5 acres. My question if this is allowed: Is the county going to pay for the needed widening of the road and road maintenance or will the tax payers pay to maintain the roads due the addditional traffic and further infrastructure? From what I have read The past studies regarding water shed issues, environmental impact and traffic assessment are out dated and current assessments are needed. This proposed development impact; --Crucial wildlife corridors --Critical habitats, localized wetlands & their buffers --Vital aquifer recharge area, outflowing streams, & run off into Discovery Bay --Local infrastructure & traffic patterns --Larry Scott & Olympic Discovery Trails as well as the neighboring woodlands --Jefferson County International Airport In speaking with others concerned, this proposed development is inconsistent with Jefferson County's SEPA Code requirements for clustered development and with the location's rural designation as spelled out in the County's Growth Management Plan.

My name is Rick Burton I am a fixed route operator at Clallam Transit and the newly elected ATU Executive Board Representative for JTA/CTS. As the representative part of my duties is to sit on both boards respectively and bring about questions and concerns from the members I represent.As apparent from the reactions today,JTA staff is not used to nor overly excited about me speaking up. (My predecessor was a JTA employee and did not know he was able to speak up). As a board member, it is my hope that they treat me with the same respect as they treat all of you. (I can speak and ask questions, I just can't vote). I know as board members, your main objectives are financial and stability. It is my hope that you are also concerned with the treatment and the well being of the employees. I would like to suggest if any of you could, go down talk to some of the employees and get their perspective on how things are at JTA. (They may be afraid of repercussions, but may open up). I would like to answer any questions that any of you might have, and look further to working with you all in the future.

The declaration means that in January 2022 the agency will reduce water deliveries to the Lower Colorado River Basin states of Arizona and Nevada and to Mexico,but not to California—yet. Arizona will lose the most water:512,00o acre-feet,nearly a fifth of its 4 total Colorado River allocation of 2.8 million acre-feet.Nevada will lose a 21,000 and Mexico 80,000.An acre-foot is enough water to cover an https://theconversation.com/as-colorado-river-basin-states-confront-water-shortage s-its-time-to-focus... 8/18/2021 As Colorado River Basin states confront water shortages, it's time to focus on reducing demand Page 2 of 4 acre of land,which is roughly the area of a football field,to a depth of axttra cuy ' one foot—about 326,00o gallons. �'�'u° uWrk OAS" Central Arizona farmers are the big losers in this first round of cuts.The a nx►stut r 6.17 cities are protected because they enjoy the highest priority in Arizona for , water delivered through the Central Arizona Proiect,a 33o-mile canal � 0 ttl RA from the Colorado River.From my experience analyzing Western water tt�81 F rx+tu policy,I expect that this declaration won't halt growth in the affected i states—but growth can no longer be uncontrolled.Increasing water supply is no longer a viable option,so states must turn to reducing demand. ' 'Ci �R '.` Conservation remains the low-hanging fruit.Water reuse—treating � ��� The Colorado River Basin drains seven western states.The wastewater and using it again,including for drinking—is also viable.A Lower Basin is more heavily developed than the Upper Basin third option is using pricing and trading to encourage the reallocation of and consumes more water.USGS water from lower-value to higher-value uses. Interstate collaboration The Colorado River Basin states have formally negotiated who can use how much water from the Colorado River since they first inked the Colorado River Compact in 1922.In 2007 they negotiated interim shortage guidelines that specified how much each state would reduce its use depending on the elevation of Lake Mead.A series of subsequent agreements included Mexico,increased the scale of reductions and authorized the secretary of the Interior,ultimately,to impose truly draconian cuts. Arizona suffers the biggest cuts because it agreed in the 196os that it would have the lowest priority among the Lower Basin states. California does not take a cut until the level in Lake Mead drops even lower.But that could happen as soon as 2023.The water level is dropping partly because of the Western drought but also because of the shape of Lake Mead,which was created by damming Boulder Canyon in 1936. Like most Western river canyons,Boulder Canyon is wide at the rim and narrow at its base,like a martini glass.As its water elevation drops,each remaining foot in the lake holds less water. Lake Mead Hits All-Time Low Water Level Lake Mead,the largest U.S.reservoir,has lost 5 trillion gallons of water in the past 20 years. Lake Mead feeds Hoover Dam,one of the largest hydroelectric generating facilities in the country.The plant produces electricity by moving water through turbines.When Lake Mead is high,Hoover Dam's generating capacity is more than 2,000 megawatts,which produces enough electricity to supply some 450,00o average households in Nevada,Arizona and California. But the plant has lost 25%of its capacity as Lake Mead has dropped.If the water level declines below about q5o feet,the dam won't be able to generate power. https://theconversation.com/as-colorado-river-basin-states-confront-water-shortages-its-time-to-focus... 8/18/2021 As Colorado River Basin states confront water shortages, it's time to focus on reducing demand Page 3 of 4 Sending water south The Upper Basin states—Colorado,Wyoming,Utah and New Mexico—will also suffer. That's because the Colorado River Compact obligates the Bureau of Reclamation to release an annual average of 8.23 million acre-feet from Lake Powell,the nation's second-largest reservoir,which extends from southern Utah into northern Arizona. The Bureau of Reclamation predicted in mid-July that runoff into Lake Powell for 2021 will total just 3.23 million acre-feet,or 30%of average.To make up for this shortfall,the bureau will release more water from three Upper Basin reservoirs:Flaming Gorge in Utah,Blue Mesa in Colorado and Navajo on the Colorado-New Mexico border. These releases will harm farmers and ranchers,who may be forced to raise less-water-intensive crops or fewer animals due to water shortages.The Upper Basin states get much of their water from snowpack,which has declined in recent years as the West warms. Doing the math The ultimate problem facing the Colorado River Basin states is simple.There are more water rights on paper than there is water in the river.And that's before considering the impact of climate change and evaporation loss from Lakes Mead and Powell. The urgency of the Tier r shortage declaration has generated wild-eyed proposals to import water from far-flung places.In May 2021,the Arizona legislature passed a bipartisan resolution calling on Congress to study a pipeline from the Mississippi River that would augment the Colorado River.Space does not permit me to elaborate all the obstacles to this idea,but here's a big one:the Rocky Mountains. Similarly,the city of St.George in southwest Utah has proposed building a too-mile pipeline from Lake Powell to augment its supply.St.George has some of the highest water consumption and lowest water prices in the country. a n �p u n q Wares - i0a iat - 5 xiMt IWN.� LYi,�)°li "_:, p r Pii 1011 y �.,�, i � r According to data released on Aug.12,2021,from the 2020 Census,Phoenix was the fastest-growing large city in the U.S. AP Photo/Ross D.Franklin The gospel of growth still motivates some cities.Buckeye,Arizona,on the west side of Phoenix,has a planning area of 642 square miles,which is larger than Phoenix.The city has approved 27 housing developments that officials project will increase its population by 800,000 people by 204o.Yet its water supply depends on unsustainable groundwater pumping. https://theconversation.com/as-colorado-river-basin-states-confront-water-shortages-its-time-to-focus... 8/18/2021 As Colorado River Basin states confront water shortages, it's time to focus on reducing demand Page 4 of 4 Other communities have faced reality.In early 2021 Oakley,Utah,east of Salt Lake City,imposed a construction moratorium on new homes,sending shivers up the spines of developers across the West. Enabling farmers to be more efficient The Tier t declaration gives states and local communities reason to remove barriers to transferring water.Market forces are playing an increasingly critical role in water management in the West.Many new demands for water are coming from voluntary transfers between willing sellers and desperate buyers. Water markets threaten rural communities because farmers cannot hope to compete with cities in a free market for water.Nor should they have to.Water remains a public resource.I believe the states need a process to ensure that transfers are consistent with the public interest—one that protects the long-term viability of rural communities. As the West enters an era of water reallocation,most of the water will come from farmers,who consume more than 7o%of the region's water.Cities,developers and industry need only a tiny fraction of that amount for the indefinite future. What if municipal and industrial interests created a fund to help farmers install more efficient irrigation systems instead of simply flooding fields,a low-tech approach that wastes a lot of water?If farmers could reduce their water consumption by 5%,that water would be available to cities and businesses.Farmers would continue to grow as much food as before,thus protecting the stability of rural communities.This could be a win-win solution to the West's water crisis.

Greetings Commissioners, Homeward Bound Community Land Trust(in the process of becoming Olympic Housing Trust)is very pleased to be the beneficiary of an upcoming rock concert taking place in Chimacum on Saturday September 4th (flyer attached). We have applied to the state Liquor&Cannabis Board to be able to sell alcohol as a nonprofit in order to increase the donations raised at the event. However,we submitted the application later than the required 45 days. So, I am reaching out to you to ask for your assistance. I received a letter from the Liquor and Cannabis board saying: Please reach out to the JEFFERSON COUNTY COMMISSIONERS to get a letter of non-objection for the event and have them send them to us.That letter must contain the following information for us to be able to accept it in lieu of the 20 days waiting period required by law. • Must be on the City/County letterhead and signed by authorized personnel only • Must include that the City/County has no objection to Homeward Bound Community Land Trust selling alcohol • Dates of the event: September 4th,2021 • Times of the event: rpm-11pm • Address of the event: 9012 Beaver Valley Rd, Chimacum WA 98325 Send to Michelle Corey 1025 Union Ave SE I PO Box 43098 I Olympia,Washington 98504 specialoccasionsc lcb.wa.gov I P.360-664-1600 I F. 360-753-2710 Note: i i) Since we have not finalized officially changing the name of the organization,please say Homeward Bound Community Land Trust 2) I am not sure if they need it mailed or if email is sufficient. I will ask and let you know. Thank you so much for your assistance in this! Justine The full message I received from the Liquor&Cannabis Board said: This message is regarding the application for a special occasion license that we received for the event on September 4,2021.The Liquor and Cannabis Board requests 45 days advance notice of the event to be able to issue the license. The reason for this is because the local authority requires 20 days to respond to a notice that we send out for their approval. Due to the application being short dated,the JEFFERSON COUNTY COMMISSIONERS does not have the full 20 days to respond,therefore we cannot guarantee the license can be issued in time. Please reach out to the JEFFERSON COUNTY COMMISSIONERS to get a letter of non-objection for the event and have them send them to us. That letter must contain the following information for us to be able to accept it in lieu of the 20 days waiting period required by law. 2 • ' • "" ,,, „ """" ,„ „ , , ••,„, • • • • - - , ' ••• , •„ .:•- .
