Prosecutin2 Attorney Mark Huth re: Discussion of Hearin2 Procedure: Arcadia
Terrace: Mark Huth reported that he received copies of several letters regarding the hearing
procedure that resulted in the final approval on the Arcadia Terrace project. This hearing was
originally on the agenda in January, and although the public testimony portion had been
closed, more information was needed for the final decision. It was put back on the agenda
on May 16 because the issues in question had been addressed. The adjacent property owners
and people who appealed the project were not notified of this continuation date. Mark Huth
stated his main concern regarding the procedure was to make sure all the issues raised by
these people were discussed by the Board on the record. He recommended that final approval
be held until he could review the May 16 tape and verify that all the issues had been
addressed. If he finds that they were not addressed, the Board will need to make this
information part of the record. He will review the tape this week. There will be a
continuation of this discussion on June 13.

Shoreline Man32ement Commission Recommendation re: Shoreline Substan-
tial Development Permit Application SDP92-0011: To Construct a 40 Foot Lonl! by Six
Foot Wide Dock Teeinl! into a 105 Foot Lon2 Ramp and Float: Westerly Shore of Mats
Mats Bay: Leonard Palmer. Applicant: Associate Planner Jim Pearson reported that this
proposed dock at Mats Mats Bay is longer than allowed by the Shoreline Master Program,
which recommends that joint use docks be limited to 60 feet. He added that there are several
established docks in the area that are approximately 100 feet in length that were built prior
to the adoption of the Shoreline Master Program. The Shoreline Commission has
recommended approval of this variance. Mr. Palmer said he explained to the Shoreline
Commission at the hearing that he would be mooring research vessels at the dock. Jim
Pearson added that the Shoreline Commission did not consider this a commercial use.
Chairman Hinton is concerned about the variance because he does not see that it meets the
necessary criteria. Mr. Palmer added that if the dock is less than 105 feet, there are periods
when it will go dry on low tide. Chairman Hinton said he wants to review the tapes of the
Shoreline Commission hearing. The Board concurred the discussion would be continued at
their June 13 meeting.
Shoreline Man32ement Commission Recommendation re: Shoreline Substan-
tial Development Permit Application SDP94-0005: To Construct a 17 Foot Wide b:y 16
Foot Hil!h Platform for Observin2 Wildlife: Dosewallips State Park in Brinnon:
Washin2ton State Parks and Recreation Commission. Applicant: Associate Planner Jim
Pearson reported that the Shoreline Commission has recommended approval of this shoreline
permit for a platform to observe wildlife at Dosewa]]ips State Park. Commissioner
Huntingford asked if the State Parks considered the necessary Americans with Disabilities
Act (ADA) requirements and if they are in compliance with it on this project? Jim Pearson
stated that it was his understanding from their testimony at the Shoreline Commission hearing
that they also have ADA requirements that they must use, but this project does not have to
be ADA accessible. The Board asked that Jim Pearson send a letter to the State Parks asking
for a response on their position on ADA requirements and also an explanation of why this
project is exempt.
Lake Leland Neil!hborhood Planninl! Group re: Beinl! Recol!nized as a
Community Planninl! Group: Assistant Planner Lesa Barnes asked if the Board is in favor
of this addition to the community planning groups? Her understanding is that the Leland
Group feels their interests are different from Quilcene's and they are located far enough from
Quilcene that they want to establish their own planning group. She added that this will
establish a procedure in case this issue comes up again. The Board directed her to formally
notify the Leland Group that they would be recognized as a separate community planning
group.
Open Ril!ht-of- W ay Request: 150 feet of West Price Street to Private Road
Standards: Plat of Irondale #3: Robert Coulter and Daniel Pearce. Applicants: Public
Works Traffic Engineer Technician Bob Henderson reported that this portion of West Price
Street is not on the County Road Log or maintained by the County. He explained that Mr.
Coulter is requesting an extension of an existing driveway with a ten foot wide trail on the
right-of-way. This would give him access to the rest of his property with a garden tractor.

Several neighbors have personal property on this right-of-way, including a fence. When this
type of issue arises, the Public Works Department tries to mediate with the neighbors. That
has not been successful in this case, therefore the Public Works Department suggests the
present action. Bob Henderson added that if future development of the right-of-way is
necessary, this issue should be addressed at that time to decide where the road should be
placed. Chairman Hinton stated that to be consistent with County policy, the roadway would
be placed in the center of the right-of-way. Commissioner Huntingford moved to approve the
opening of the northern portion of the right-of-way as requested. Chairman Hinton seconded
the motion which carried by unanimous vote.
Mike Ajax and Larry Fay re: Buildin2 Permit. BOD94-0254: Black Point Road
in Brinnon: Thomas Crompton. Applicant: Sam Boling explained that he sold this property
to Mr. Crompton several years ago and that it will be served by a community water system
that is currently under construction. He added that the system will be completed by the end
of July. In order to get a building permit, Mr. Crompton must have proof of adequate potable
water. Prosecuting Attorney Mark Huth recommends that the completion date of the system
be made part of the record and then the building permit can be issued. The Board directed
Building Inspector Mike Ajax to process the building permit, with the condition that a
certificate of occupancy not be issued untiJ the community water syste¡µ is complete.
Wes Pruitt. Consultant for ESD 114 re: Juvenile Services Community
Networks: Wes Pruitt reported that the State Youth Violence Bill will focus on intervention
and prevention services for at risk youth. Community based networks will be dealing with
nine issues that will result in a comprehensive plan to reduce youth violence. There is a pre-
application form to the FamiJy Policy CounciJ that each community must submit by June 15
that shows community service boundaries. Mr. Pruitt gave the Board a survey suggesting
possible service boundaries for Jefferson County. He added that it would be helpful if the
Board would go on record at this meeting about where they think the boundaries should be.
The next step will be to appoint the 23 member board in the service area. Several
organizations and entities in the community will be nominating representatives to this board.
The Board of County Commissioners will appoint three citizens. There was a brief discussion
about whether Jefferson County should be on its own or become part of a network with
Clallam County. The Board concurred that the local community network boundary should be
Jefferson County only.
Bonnie White-Lichty. Skookum Products and Services re: Public Notice: Project
Location in Flood Plain: Skookum Project: Bonnie White-Lichty explained that the
Skookum project received a Mitigated Determination of Non-significance for SEP A from the
City of Port Townsend. Originally they had been told they were just outside the flood plain,
but the SEP A review showed the site in the flood plain. The Community Development Block
Grant they are receiving requires different procedures for projects in the flood plain. As a
result they have to publish the Concurrent Notice again and a notice with the added flood
plain language. This second publication wi]] increase the time line by moving dates forward
several weeks. Commissioner Huntingford moved to issue a finding of no significant impact
on the environment regarding the Skookum Project; approve a notice to the public of the
project location in the flood plain, and approve a notice to the public of intent to request
release of funds. Chairman Hinton seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote.
