WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 14,1992
Chairman Larry W. Dennison called the meeting to order in the presence of
Commissioner B. G. Brown. Commissioner Richard E. Wojt was out of town at a conference.
Don Miller. State Department of Natural Resources re: Discussion of Timber
Sales and Revenues for 1993: Don Miller, State Department of Natural Resources reported
that the timber sale revenue projections for the County in 1993 don't look very good. There
has been one sale of $700,000 which would net the County $525,000 (at 75%), but the
logging contract for that sale has not been awarded yet. The income from the sale could
come in during 1993, 1994 or 1995. The proceeds for the sale are divided among all of the
County's taxing districts with most of it going to schools.
The discussion continued regarding the DNR's management of the County's timber, the
problems with the timber industry, and what the County can expect in the way of timber
income in the future. The DNR is trying to keep a steady income to the County from timber
sales. Don Miller reported that the County can expect that 5 million board feet of timber will
be sold each year, beginning in 1994. He added that if there are any changes in the timber
market, he will contact the County with an update on these projections.
APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES: Commissioner Brown moved for the approval
of the Minutes of August 10, and 17, 1992 as corrected. Chairman Dennison seconded the
motion. The motion carried by a unanimous vote.
PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD: The County budget proceedings and the status
of the findings and conclusions on the G.A.B., Inc. franchise in Gardiner were discussed.
Fred Tuso, representing G.A.B., Inc., asked Prosecuting Attorney Mark Huth when these
findings would be ready? The Prosecuting Attorney reported that he can not give a definite
date for when he will have them completed.
Request for Buildin2 Permit: Church on the E22 and I Road: Chima cum
Con2re2ation of Jehovah's Witnesses: Prosecuting Attorney Mark Huth reported that there
is a problem with the issuance of a building permit for a church being built on the Egg and
I Road by the Jehovah's Witnesses. The public water supply for the Church has not been
approved by the State, and the building permit can not be issued until the water supply is
approved. Mark Huth suggested that a "footings only" building permit be issued.

Building Inspector Mike Ajax reported that a "footings only" building permits have been
issued for other projects, but never on a project without water system approval. The church
has a crew of volunteers coming to work on the building in October. Mark Huth reported
that proof of an approved public water supply is a condition of the SEP A threshold
determination.
The discussion continued regarding what would happen if the building permit was issued and
the water supply is not approved. Community Services Director David Goldsmith reported
that the State is waiting for the results of the water testing which is expected to take at least
another week.
Jamie Kozelisky, of the Jehovah's Witnesses stated that the results of the water test may
require that a filtration system be installed. The church is committed to doing what is
necessary to continue with this project. Mark Huth reported that a "footings only" permit
will allow only footings and stem walls to be constructed.
Commissioner Brown stated that if the Church is willing to meet the conditions of a partial
permit, and get the water system approved by the State before the rest of the building is
finished, he is willing to allow them to proceed on that basis. Chairman' Dennison concurred
with Commissioner Brown, that the Church can proceed on that basis.
