on the Solid Waste Management Plan. The comments from AI Boucher were then review-
ed.
1.
2.
Estimates of solid waste generation -- the use of a constant per capita, per day,
figure for generated waste was discussed, as well as how the number that was
used was determined.
The comment regarding close out costs of the present landfill and a debt service
on bonds to pay for this expense being spread out for a twenty year period.
Gary Rowe explained that the debt service alternative would be determined at
the time bonds are issued. The Board would choose an option based on what
they feel is reasonable for the County taxpayers.
Chairman Dennison asked how much the subsidization of the recycling program adds to the
tipping fee? Gary Rowe stated that the figure is somewhere between $10 and $20 per ton,
but because the costs fluctuate it is hard to give a specific amount. From the perspective
of total operating costs, recycling represents 30 to 40 percent of the Solid Waste budget,
but this does not take into consideration the revenue that is generated from recycling. Gary
Rowe stated that he will put some figures together for the Board on recycling costs and
revenues.
3. The comment regarding the recycling goal of the County -- the Solid Waste
Advisory Committee set a 30% goal for recycling in 1988. The current
Committee members recommend that a 20% goal be established. As the
sections of the plan are updated this goal· will be reviewed and may be revised.
The present tipping fee at the landfill is $50.67 per ton. Income for the recycle
program is running about 60% of the expenses.
The Board needs to adopt the Solid Waste Management Plan by resolution which would
include any specific recommendation and goals that the Board would like to see implemented.
Once the plan is adopted by the County it will be forwarded to the State Department of
Ecology for their approval. Gary Rowe will draft a resolution for the Board's consideration.

Discussion of Letter from Port Townsend Mayor Brent Shirlev re: Sludge
Disposal: Jeff Frettingham asked if the Board would like the staff to meet with the City
regarding sludge disposal. The Board concurred that a meeting be arranged. Gary Rowe
reported that the City needs to be made aware that the County will not be accepting sludge
at the landfill in the near future.

Chairman Dennison asked if the Parks Advisory Board made any recommendation on how
the park development costs would be funded? Janet Kearsley reported that the Parks
Advisory Board did not deal with that issue. Commissioner Brown added that the term IIreco-
gnizablell needs to be defined. The Parks Advisory Board will work on this further.
Proposed Picnic Shelter Reservation System: Parks Advisory Board: Janet
Kearsley reported that this proposed system is for large groups wanting to use the picnic
facïlities at County parks. Commissioner Brown asked what constitutes a large group? Janet
Kearsley reported that II large groupll hasn't been defined for this policy yet.
The discussion turned to whether the current system works or not and if a new system is
necessary. Gary Rowe explained that the current system is that these requests are brought
before the Board on a case by case basis. Janet Kearsley will check into how the City and
the State reserve the shelters at their picnic areas, and report back to the Board.
Proposed Community Park and Recreation Grant Proaram Guidelines; Parks
Advisory Board: Gary Rowe reported that there is $30,000 available to community groups
for the Community Park and Recreation Grant program. Commissioner Brown questioned the
requirement that a 50% match be provided by the community group and the requirement that
this match can not be in-kind or volunteer labor provided by the group?
Janet Kearsley stated that the idea is that the funding be used for materials and not for labor
costs. After further discussion the Board concurred that the HFunding Umits and GuideJinesH
items be reviewed and revised by the Parks Advisory Board.
ReQuest for Reimbursable Work; State. Department of Wildlife: Commissioner

exterior lighting; and access to the site. The proposed mitigative measures were then
reviewed.

between buildings? Jerry Smith reported that. the Fire Marshall can provide that informa-
tion. Ms. Martin stated that the site is basically level and she doesn't see the need for a
drainage plan. She asked how extensive the drainage plan needs to be? Commissioner
Brown advised that the plan must satisfy the Public Works Department.

Jerry Smith reported that the Planning Commission reviewed this Certificate of Compliance
for the Coyle Community Center and found that it meets the conditions of the Coyle
Community Plan. Commissioner Brown moved for approval of the Certificate of Compliance

sioner Wojt seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote.
Inner Harbor Village Plat; Building Setback Une and Vegetation Management
Setback Une on Lots: David Goldsmith, Director of Community Services, explained that
Pope Resources established a building setback line for the Inner Harbor Village and Ludlow
Point Village plats which is greater than what the County requires. Confusion has come up
because the plat maps indicate an ordinary high water mark that is in error and when the
setback line was measured from that it is different than when it is measured from the road
right-of-way. The vegetation management setback line was to be the same as the
residential setback line.
David Goldsmith made the following recommendation to clarify where the setback line is to
be located:
1. For the Division that has been approved (Ludlow Point Village Division 1) the line
will be measured from the right-of-way of South Bay Road as shown on the face
of the plat.
2. For new Divisions that have not received final plat approval the setback line will be
measured from the Ordinary High Water Mark as depicted on Exhibit A (the
preliminary plat of Inner Harbor Village).
Commissioner Brown moved to adopt the recommendation as proposed by the Planning
Department. Commissioner Wojt seconded the motion. The motion carried by a unanimous
vote.
Juvenile and Familv Court Services Director. Lois Smith re: ReQuest for
Additional Staff: Lois Smith reported that she is proposing to split the duties of the position
in her Department that handles the Guardian Ad Litem and Diversion programs. A new job
description is proposed for a Guardian Ad Litem Coordinator position, and the Diversion
Coordinator job description has been revised to reflect the proposed changes.
The Diversion. Coordinator position would not. work enough hours to be eligible for benefrts,
Lois Smith reported, but the Guardian Ad Utem Coordinator would be eligible for benefits.
Commissioner Brown moved to approve the establishment of a position in the Juvenile and
Family Court Budget for Guardian Ad Litem Coordinator as requested. Commissioner Wojt
seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote.
ReQuest for Partial Reconveyance; Fee In Ueu of Park Aareement; River
Vallev View Plat: Arvld H. Quam: (See Minutes of June 14 and November 13, 1989)
Commissioner Brown moved to approve the request for a partial re-conveyance on the Deed
of Trust (AF#326180) as submitted for Arvid Quam. Commissioner Wojt seconded the
motion which carried by a unanimous vote.
