PUBLIC WORKS
HEARING re: Aoolication for Franchise: Construct. Ooerate and
Maintain a Cable Television System in County Road Rights-of-way: All
County areas South of the Port Townsend City Limits. East of the Olympic
National Forest Line and West to the County Line: Interstate Cable.
Inc.: Public Works Administrative Secretary, Eileen Simon, reported
that the Public Works Department must approve any work done under this
franchise to place cable television lines in the County road rights-
of-way. Since 90% of the work will be overhead on existing poles, there
will be no bond required.
The Chairman opened the public hearing.
Shawn Dionne. Vice President of Interstate Cable: Shawn Dionne stated
that Interstate Cable, of Corvallis Oregon, currently owns the cable
television system at Kala Point. Interstate Cable specializes in
building in rural county areas because they have a lower densi ty
requirement for placement of their system. Interstate Cable doesn't go
into an area that is served (with cable lines installed) by another
company. About 90% of their cable will be installed above ground.
Chairman Brown asked where the cable company intends to serve in the
east end of the County? Commissioner B. G. Brown noted that the
franchise includes all of east Jefferson County. Mr. Dionne stated that
there are plans for two or three small systems serving specific areas.
commissioner Dennison and Commissioner B. G. Brown questioned the waiver
of the bond requirement? Construction Engineer, Bruce Laurie, answered
that the bond requirement is to make sure that damage to the County road
right-of-way is covered, and most of the work Interstate Cable will be
doing will be over the right-of-way. Mr. Dionne added that he has
provided a certificate of insurance naming Jefferson County as a co-
insured for damage that may be done by their equipment working above the
right-of-way. They also have agreements with GTE and puget Power for
using their poles.

PLANNING AND BUILDING
State Environmental Policy Act Review and Threshold Determina-
tion re: Shoreline Permit #SDP90-0010: Placement of a Moorinq Buoy for
Private. Non commercial Use: 200 Yards Southeasterly of the Port of
Port Townsend Boat Launch in Lower Hadlock: Donald W. Marshall.
Applicant: Associate Planner Jim Pearson explained that this is an
environmental review of a shoreline permit to place a mooring buoy in
Port Townsend Bay off Lower Hadlock, submitted by Donald W. Marshall.
He then reviewed the environmental checklist.
There is some recreational use in the area for boating, jet skiing, etc.
Jim Pearson reported, and this buoy could possibly displace some of
those activities. Notice of this project has been published and posted
in the area. A mooring buoy is a primary use in an area designated as
"Conservancy" as this area is, so this permit will not be reviewed by
the Shoreline Commission.
commissioner B. G. Brown moved to issue a determination of non-sig-
nificance and lead agency status for this shoreline permit application
submitted by Donald W. Marshall. Commissioner Dennison seconded the
motion which carried by a unanimous vote.
State Environmental policy Act Review and Threshold Determina-
tion re: Shoreline Permit Exemption: Placement of Fill on Upland
Portions of Three Recreational Lots. Trails End Homesites First Addition
Plat: Lot 8. Block 7. shirley Kearney and Lots 9 and 10. Block 7. HeYler
Davis and Dave Gastman. Ao~licants: There are requests from three
property owners in the Trails End Homesites First Addition for permit
exemptions to allow the placement of fill on Lots 8, 9 and 10 of this
plat, Jim Pearson reported. shirley Kearney owns Lot 8 and is request-
ing a permit to place approximately 250 cubic yards of fill and Heyler
Davis and David Gastman own Lots 9 and 10 and are requesting permits to
place approximately 200 cubic yards of fill. These lots are all
adjacent to each other.
Jim Pearson then reviewed the environmental checklist filled out by
Shirley Kearney, which he reported is adequate for review of all three
lots. The fill to be placed on the lots is from dredging done at
aridgehaven Marina. These lots have all been filled previously by the
State of Washington (1979 or 1980). The Planning staff recommends the
following mitigative 'measures:

from the wetland area.

no greater than one and on-half foot horizontal to one foot
vertical and shall be covered by hay to ensure against soil
erosion and run-off.

Pearson suggested that a time frame be added to this condition -
"no later than 30 days after completion of the work."
4. The Planning Department shall be notified 48 hours in advance of
the time the fill will be placed on the site.
5. Information on the source and composition of the proposed fill
must be provided to the Planning Department if dredge material
from the Bridgehaven Marina is not used.
Commissioner Dennison moved to issue a mitigated determination of non-
significance with the conditions as recommended. Commissioner B.G.
Brown seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote.

Four Above Ground Diesel Tanks: Place a 4000 Gallon Underqround Diesel
Tank with Pipinq: Toandos Peninsula: Taylor United. Inc. The original
permit, approved in 1988 was for a fish hatchery facility on this site
on Dabob Bay. A determination of non-significance was issued on this

permit may be revised if the proposed modifications are not major or
significant. The proposed findings were then reviewed.

with the conditions recommended after finding that the revisions
proposed are not major or significant and are within scope and intent
of the original permit. Commissioner Dennison seconded the motion which
carried by a unanimous vote.
Proposed Work Plan for ImDlementing Rules of the Growth
Management Act: Potable Water Requirement: craig Ward, Senior Planner,
came before the Board to discuss implementation of the potable water
requirement of the State's new Growth Management Act. The regulation
must be implemented by October 1, 1990 on new construction. This will
mean that before a building permit can be issued, one of the following
must be provided as proof of a potable water source: 1) a water rights
permit, 2) proof of a connection to a water purveyor in the area, or
3) well test logs for a well.
A 60 day moratorium will be placed on issuing building permits for
property owners who have an alternative potable water supply that does
not meet these standards. This will allow the county time to develop
rules for approving alternative potable water sources. The Prosecuting
Attorney has reviewed this plan. The Board. concurred with the implemen-
tation schedule as proposed.

division: Old Gardiner Road. West of the Gardiner community Center:

this referendum before the November election. Rick Tollefson explained
that the Public Works Departmen~ staff has the information to put this

chapter.

some preliminary methodology on how a particular piece of property is
acquired or set aside. The plan would have to be integrated in with
