Discussion of Nature of Hearin2 re: Inn at Port Ludlow: Prosecuting Attorney
Mark Huth reported that the Board had set a hearing to reconsider the SEP A mitigation on the
Inn at Port Ludlow project which said that if the applicant and the School District couldn't agree
on mitigation, the Board would decide. The applicants attorneys have questioned what the nature
of the hearing should be and they asked that the hearing notice not be published until the Board
had a chance to address the nature of the hearing.
He further explained that the Board has three options at a hearing, if Pope Resources and the
Chimacum School District do not come to an agreement on mitigation:
1) The Board can reconsider the SEPA mitigating condition and set what the mitigation
will be.
2) The Board can re-open that portion of the approval and take evidence on the entire
issue.
3) The Board could open the hearing and make a new finding or deny the project.
Mark Huth recommends that the Board reopen the approval to consider the appropriate provisions
for schools and the Fire District and then the Board make a finding regarding these items.
Hopefully the Fire District and the School District will settle with the applicant regarding adequate
provision for each before this hearing.
Commissioner Huntingford moved to set a hearing to consider the finding regarding the ap-
propriate provision for schools and fire services as recommended by the Prosecuting Attorney on
July 26, 1993 at 2:00 p.m. Commissioner Hinton seconded the motion which carried by a
unanimous vote.
Final Approval; Art Bishop Short Plat #SP18-92; 2 Lots Off E22 and I Road in
Chimacum: Commissioner Hinton moved to approve the final Bishop Short Plat #SP18-92 subject
to the correction to the wording in the finding regarding capacity of the Chimacum School.
Commissioner Huntingford seconded the motion. Commissioner Hinton and Commissioner
Huntingford voted for the motion and Chairman Wojt voted against the motion. The motion
carried.
Request from Plannin2 Commission to have the Prosecutin2 Attorney at their
meetin2 to discuss the Commission's By Laws: Mark Huth reported that he has been asked by
the Planning Commission to attend their next meeting for the review of their by-laws. He
reported that he is the Attorney for the Commissioners not the Planning Commission, and it is his
opinion that the Planning Commission serves at the pleasure of the Board of Commissioners. The
Planning Commission does not direct the Planning Department. The Board concurred that Mark
Huth attend the Planning Commission meeting.
Update on Consultant Contracts for Plannin2 Services: Planning and Building
Department Director Craig Ward reported that Susan Thomas has withdrawn from contract
negotiations for providing plat processing services to the Planning Department. Reid Shockey had

PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
CONTRACTS (2) Re: Work at Tri Area Community Center to be paid from the
Community Center Grant Pro2ram; Total of $3.886.70: Commissioner Hinton moved to
approve two contracts: 1) The Sign Man for the signing program in the amount of $940.56, and
2) Rainbow Sweepers for layout and striping in the parking lot for $649.90 as presented.
Commissioner Huntingford seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote.
Decision on the Six Year Transportation Plan (Hearin2 held June 28. 1993):
Public Works Director Gary Rowe reported that at the hearing last week the Board indicated that
they wanted more information on the East Quilcene Road. The only reported accident on this
road was in 1985, but safety issues are still a problem. The Public Works Department recom-
mends leaving this project at its current position on the six year program. Regarding item #26
the ISTEA project, the Public Works Department recommends that it be moved to Item #11 and
all the project after that be advanced one number. The discussion turned to the staffing needs of
the Public Works Department to allow more work on this project.
Chairman Wojt asked if any work will be done on the ISTEA project in 1993 and 1994 if it is
placed at priority number 11? Gary Rowe reported that all of the projects that have first year
funding identified, which this one does, will be worked on. He then explained how the depart-
ment handles work on the variety of projects that they are responsible for. Commissioner Hinton
asked if this funding is on-going? Gary Rowe answered that there are two sources of funding for
this project: one is federal and one is State. The State funding is available for the life of the
federal act under which it was granted. Commissioner Hinton asked about the matching funds
required for this project? Gary Rowe reported that the match for the ISTEA funding is to come
from the lAC funding. There is $60,000 in the budget to cover the required match if something
happens to the lAC funding. The Public Works Department is working to have the County's
match be as little as possible.
Commissioner Huntingford moved to approve RESOLUTION NO. 56-93 adopting the six year
transportation plan with the proposed change in priority (Item #26 to be moved to position #11.)
Commissioner Hinton seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote.
Discussion of Scope of Work for Bud2et Consultant: Gary Rowe reported that he
has met with Charlie Earl regarding his scope of work on the 1994 budget. Mr. Earl has set out
a scope of work in which he will help the Board create a final draft of budget goals to be sent
out with the budget call in August. It is estimated that this work will cost about $6,000.00. Mr.
Earl would be available to do specific work after this scope of work is completed.
