GMA Project Manager Steve Ladd reported that next Saturday Ken Olsen, the consultant hired to work with Tri-Area residents on the Comprehensive Plan, will hold the first workshop from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Tri-Area Community Center. Forty-five residents have signed up to attend. Steve Ladd added that he met with City of Port Townsend staff last week regarding population projections. The City does not agree with the County's original projections and they have hired their own consultant to prepare a new study. In reviewing the consultant's scope of work it appears that these projections will be for the entire County and not just for the City of Port Townsend. David Goldsmith stated that according to the Countywide Planning Policies, the City is a municipal entity and the County is the regional government. The City initiating a population projection study for the entire County is contrary to these policies. However, the County does agree that the City should have population projection numbers for the Tri-Area because of the water service issue. The Commissioners agreed that the County and the City need to work together on this issue. Steve Ladd wiJl go to the City's meeting on population projections this week and advise the City of the County's position. Steve Ladd reported on an additional method of public participation that the Planning Commission and Planning Department have discussed. It is calJed a "Correspondence Committee" on land use.

They would not attend meetings, but packets would be sent to them as the Planning Commission or Planning Department generated information on the comprehensive plan. The members of this committee would then be required to provide comments on the packets. There was a brief discussion on the Planning Commission's role with this committee.
