MINUTES
WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 28, 1992
The meeting was called to order by Chairman Larry W. Dennison. Commis-
sioner B. G. Brown and Commissioner Richard E. Wojt were both present. There was no
Commissioners' Briefing Session
Representatives of the Brinnon Senior Center re: Rental of Space at the
Brinnon Senior Center by the ClaUam Jefferson Community Action Council: Three
representatives of the Brinnon Seniors of Brinnon and three representatives of the Senior
Nutrition Board came before the Board to discuss the agreement for lease of the kitchen
and dining room facilities at the Center by Clallam Jefferson Community Action Council.
Commissioner Wojt suggested the wording of the agreement be changed to "other nutrition
programs" in places where it now says "other programs." Commissioner Brown asked how
the contract with CAC interferes with the services provided to the seniors at this Center?
Anita Reynolds stated that the Seniors have a brunch once a month and having the cook
come in early would interfere with that. She said the wording "other programs" should be
replaced with "the ECAP Program" and she asked that the hours for dining room use be
stated explicitly as 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. so there won't be a misunderstanding in the future
when the Seniors want to use the dining room for their programs.
One of the Senior Nutrition representatives reported that the Seniors use the Dining Room
for Bingo. During Bingo they use the kitchen for coffee and popcorn, etc. and there has
never been a conflict between this activity and the Senior Nutrition Program. Commis-
sioner Brown stated that since there hasn't been a problem, he doesn't feel there is a need
to make the contract more specific. He noted that it is in everyone's best interest to
utilize the facility as much as possible. The discussion continued regarding the use of the
Brinnon Senior Center for other nutrition programs sponsored by Clallam Jefferson
Community Action Council.
The Board will consider these requests and check with the Prosecuting Attorney and CAC
to see if the proposed wording changes will meet their needs.
PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD: Posting notice of the speed limit in Port
Ludlow Bay and a rumor that the County intends to close the drop boxes for garbage
collection in Brinnon and Quilcene were discussed.

BUSINESS FROM COUNTY DEPARTMENTS
PUBLIC WORKS
Discussion of Bio-Solids Facility Lease and Interlocal A2reement with City
of Port Townsend: Prosecuting Attorney Mark Huth explained that the first step for this
project is the approval of an agreement with the City for this facility at the County's
Landfill. A draft interlocal agreement was presented for the Board's review. The City
needs approximately 15 acres of property at the landfill. This would include a runoff
treatment area. The City is to obtain all of the permits, be lead agency under SEP A for
the project and do all of the construction. The City will own and operate the facility and
they have requested right of first refusal if the County proposes to sell the landfill property
at a future time. The County will continue to control the access to the landfill site, run
the composting facility, and accept tipping fees. The City will have access and operate the
bio-solids composting facility seven days per week. The City will be responsible for
security at the landfill when County personnel are not on duty. The City will accept all of
the septage from the County, except at certain times which are temporary in nature and
identified in the agreement. Yard wastes are required as part of the composting process
and they will accept all yard wastes at no charge. The septage dump fees will be
collected by the County, and turned over to the City. Efforts will be made to educate
County residents on the need to have their septic tanks pumped every five years. This
agreement will run for 20 years with an 18 month notice to terminate the agreement before
the term is up.
The lease for the property is being developed, but Mark Huth reported that the interlocal
agreement can be approved before the lease is finalized. The boundaries of the area to be
leased still need to be defined. The City has suggested that they would accept County

septage at this facility in lieu of paying rent to the County. Whether this is acceptable
will need to be determined by the Board.
Commissioner Brown asked if it will be the County's responsibility to take care of the
septage if and when the City can't accept it for a period of time? The mechanism for this
type of situation needs to be defined in this agreement. He also questioned the collection
of fees and what would be done with them if the septage can not be processed at the City
composting facility.
Mayor John Clise stated that if the City doesn't go ahead with the composting facility at
this site, the County will still be faced with the problem of disposing of septage. This
project is a solution to the problem of the City having to treat it's sludge and the County
having to treat it's septage. He agreed that what will happen when and if the City's
facility can't accept septage and sludge needs to be addressed in the agreement.
The discussion turned to the fee charged for dumping septage. Chairman Dennison
suggested that the language be changed to say that mutually acceptable capital amortiza-
tion and operating costs will determine the fee, instead of stating a specific fee. Commis-
sioner Brown agreed that the fee should be based on a specific formula for meeting the
needs of the project as well as the capital needs of the future. Mayor Clise stated that he
agrees with a formula being developed for these fees and asked that wording be added to
note that the formula can be reviewed to see if it meets capital needs as they become
apparent. Commissioner Brown reiterated that he wants the agreement written so that it
clearly states that a fair share is being paid by all the people that are benefiting from the
project.
Public Works Director Gary Rowe reported that the value of the lease and the value of the
project need to be worked out and identified in this agreement. These issues will be
worked out and the agreement re-drafted to address them and then the agreement will be
brought back to the Board for their review.

Acre Tracts in the Hadlock area. The application is to rezone these lots from the General

Shoreline Substantial Development Permit #SDP92-0006: Construct a Boat
Sewa2e Holdin2 Tank Pumpout System: Quilcene Boat Haven: Port of Port Town-
send: Associate Planner Jim Pearson reported that this Port of Port Townsend project is
to install a septic pumpout station at the Quilcene Boat Haven. The purpose of this
project is to protect the water quality in Quilcene Bay and Hood Canal by providing a
means of disposing of sewage generated by boaters. This project is a primary use in an
urban designated area, on a shoreline of Statewide significance. The Planning Department
finds that this project is consistent with the relevant goals, policies and performance
standards of the Shoreline Management Master Program and recommends approval of the
shoreline permit.

mended by the Planning Department. Commissioner Brown seconded the motion which
carried by a unanimous vote.
Shoreline Substantial Development Permit #SDP92-0004: Project to Sto1J
Beach Erosion: Port Hadlock Dock and Boat Launch: Port of Port Townsend: This
Port of Port Townsend project, Jim Pearson reported, includes measures to stop bank
erosion and the accretion of sand on the boat launch at Port Hadlock. A plank groin will
be built on the pier to the north of the boat launch to stop the movement of sand. Wolf
Bauer developed this proposal for the Port of Port Townsend. There is some uncertainty
about whether this project will get the desired results. The Shoreline Commission
discussed alternatives to this proposal such as continuing to remove the sand, and moving
the launch, but felt this proposal can be conditioned to develop information on the impact
of this project on the spit.
Commissioner Brown moved to approve shoreline permit #SDP92-0004 with the conditions
as recommended by the Shoreline Commission. Commissioner Wojt seconded the motion
which carried by a unanimous vote.
Shoreline Substantial Development Permit #SDP92-0012: Construction of a

Department of Fisheries: Permit Technician Michelle Wood reported that this proposal is
to construct a 60 by 30 foot building for vehicle storage at the Point Whitney Shellfish
Laboratory. The Planning Department recommends approval with one condition which
says "Exterior lighting shall be hooded and directed in a manner so as to not affect
adjacent property owners." Commissioner Brown moved to approve the shoreline permit
with the condition as recommended. Commissioner Wojt seconded the motion which
carried by a unanimous vote.
