'U' c--:~~~o~-y'\~-'"j ""'\1 ~_~_.&/'l' ) M I NUTES WEEK OF JANUARY 9, 1989 The meeting was called to order by Chairman George Brown in the presence of Commissioner B . G.. Bt'own and Commissioner Lart'y W . Dennison . Rick Tollefson"re: Letter of Support for Technical Assistance Grant from the . National "Park Service: Proposed Trail on Railroad Right-of- Way: Rick Tollefson came before the Board to ask for a letter of support for a technical assistance grant being sought from the National Park Service for a proposed trail on railroad right-of-way in Clallam and Jefferson counties. This is not a financial grant, but one for technical assistance for development of rivers and trails. The Peninsula Trails Coalition was established to promote trails on the peninsula, Mr. Tollefson reported. This grant would help with a feasibility study for determining if a trail on the railroad right-of-way is possible. In the last year the Peninsula Trails Coalition, a citizens organization, was established in Clallam and Jefferson counties to further trail con- cepts. This group has discovered that funding is not available for a project that does not have strong citizen support as well as the support of a government agency. Clallam County is supportive of this proposal. Resistance to the idea was expressed by adj~centproperty owners, but after the proposal was explained to these pt'operty owners, many of them came to see that it would be a good idea. Chairman George Brown stated that Jefferson County has more parks than any County in the State, and maybe in the nation. The taxable property in the County accounts for less than 17% of the total property. He doesn't know how much ~orepark we need. In response to Chairman George Brown's concern for the people who have purchased the railroad right-of-way across their property, Rick Tollefson noted that one proposal would be to purchase an access easement from these property owners. Commissioner Dennison clarified that Mr. Tollefson is asking fora letter of support from the Board for a technical assistance grant from the National Park Service, and he feels it would be in the County's interest to do this. Commissioner Dennison moved that the Board write a letter of support for an application for a technical assistance grant as requested by Mr. Tollefson. Commissioner B. G. Brown seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote. Appointments: Mental Health Advisory Board Members: James Hermanson and Rusty North were each appointed to serve a three year term on \f'n~_ 1~ . (l. r~r; 00 107 . r ., Commissioners' Meeting MInutes: Week of January 9, 1989 Page: 2 the Mental Health Advisory Board by motion of Commissioner Dennison, seconded by Commissioner B. G. Brown. The motion carried by a unanimous vote. BUSINES.S FR.OM COUNT"Y DEPAR.TMENTS: PUBLIC WORKS Bid Openinq For the Furnishinq of One New One-Ton Cab and Chassis for a Flatbed Truck: Public Works Director Gary Rowe opened and read the bid received: BIDDER: BID TOTALS: Pacific Coast Truck $25,218.73 including tax. Commissioner B. G. Brown moved to have the Public Works Department review the bid for accuracy and make a recommendation for bid aVlard. Commissioner Dennison seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote. License to Use County Road Riaht-df-way: Hiller Drive, Hiller's Waterfront Tracts: John Dugan, Applicant: Mrs. Seidel, her Attorney, Mr. Jackson, and Deanna Dugan were present for the discussion of this license. The specific dimensions and area for Mr. Dugan's license have not been determined yet, Gary Rowe reported.. Mrs. Seidel was given a license to use 65 feet of right-of-way from the apex of the triangle created by Hiller Drive and Oak Bay Road, in a northerly direction. This would line up approximately to the middle of lot 15 in this area. A licensed survey was not done in this area. Mr. Dugan has requested to use a portion of this same right-of-way. Mr. Jackson, representing Mrs. Seidel, stated that it is unfortunate that these neighbors do. not get along. Mrs. Seidel already enjoys a license for 65 feet of this right-of-way. The location of her carport makes it necessary for her to back out of her carport onto Hiller Drive and back into the area of right-of-way she has a license for to get out of her driveway safely. She has no objection to Mr. Dugan having a license for the balance of the right-of-way, but Mr. 3ackson stated that Mrs. Seidel would like to be able to continue to use the area currently licensed to her. Deanna Dugan stated that she applied for a li.cense two years ago and she was never given an answer on it. Mrs. Seidel was given a license without her knowledge. Ms. Dugan asked that the licensed area be divided in a more equitable manner. Gary Rowe stated that the whole int~rsectiori at this point is unsafe, but the traffic is light in the area, and that is why nothing has been done to it yet. Deanna Dugan stated that in the summer the traffic does increase because of the use of Oak Bay Park. The triangular shaped portion of right-of-way, Gary Rowe added, includes an angular parking area across from Mrs. Seidel's carport. There was a woodshed (formerly used for chickens) and a vegetable garden (about 10 feet wide) with a log on the edge of it that was probably the limit of Mrs. Seidel's use. Ms. Dugan had a woodpile beyond the log. The sixty five foot marker, when it was placed, went beyond the woodpile. Where the log is, Mrs. Seidel noted, would make the measurement 62 feet from the apex of the triangle. Contmissioner Dennison suggested that the licenses be set up so that each party has access to the property that they need to use. Commissioner Dennison moved to have the Board make a site inspection with the Public Works Department, and the. two parties present, to come to an agreement on how this right-of-way should be divided. Commissioner B. G. Brown seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote. ','OL 15 rMt 00 108 , .. Commissioners' Meeting Agenda: Week of January 9, 1989 Page: 3 Intent to Vacate County Road Right-of- Way; Garden Club Road: This intent to vacate is for a portion of Garden club Road that was abandoned when the road was rebuilt several years ago, Gary Rowe reported. An agreement was made with Carlton Pattison and his wife to trade a portion of the abandoned right-of-way after the alignment was done, but the vacation and trade was never finished. Commissioner B. G. Brown moved to approve Resolution No. 1=!! setting the public hearing for the intent to vacate a portion of right-of-way for January 23, 1989 at 10:30 a.m. Commissioner Dennison seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote. Goddard Application to Vacate a Portion of Elizabeth Street and Certain Alleys: Eisenbeis Bavview Addition: Action was tabled, Gary Rowe reported, on this application to vacate a portion of Elizabeth Street submitted by Dale Goddard due to the need for a transportation plan in the area. Mr. Goddard has a potential sale of Block 17 and 18. When the Planning Commission reviewed the application they recommended that Eliza- beth Street not be vacated. Mr. Goddard would like the alleys and a portion of Elizabeth Street vacated on the south side of Frederick Street and is asking that the Board bring this matter off the table for action. The transportation study is planned to be completed by April, Gary Rowe advised. Since there is no more information available until this trans- portation study is done, the Board took no action on this request. Appointments: Solid Naste Advisory Comaittee Members: Commis- sioner Dennison moved to appoint Anne Sears to serve a two year term on the Solid Waste Advisory Committee. Her term will expire January 10, 1991. Commissioner B. G. Brown seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote. Commissioner Dennison moved to accept Mayor Shirley's resignation from the Solid Waste Advisory Committee and to appoint Karen Chang to serve as the City Representative. PLANNING Amendment to Project: Intertidal Shellfish Racks: Killapie Beach on Suc:ruamish Harbor of Hood Canal: Sea Garden, Applicant: Mitigated Determination of Non-Significance Issued on 3anuary 3, 1989: Associate Planner Jim Pearson submitted a memorandum advising that this proposal has been amended to include Lot 10 of Killapie Beach and an additional 400 cultivation racks are planned for the site bringing the total to 1,200. The Planning Department recommends that no change be made to the mitigated determination of non-significance that was issued. A memo will be sent to all interested parties advising them of this amendment to the proposal. Commissioner Dennison moved to approve the amendment as submitted under the original mitigated determination of non-significance. Commissioner B. G. Brown seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote. State Environmental Policy Act Review: Planned Commercial DeveloPment: AirPOrt Cutoff Road: Dale and. William Leavitt: Senior Planner, Rachel Nathanson reviewed the history of this project. This is a continuation of the review of the planned commercial development proposed by Dale and William Leavitt. This proposal was remanded to the Planning Commission who found it consistent with the Comprehensive Plan contingent on mitigating conditions. On April 25, 1988 a mitigated determination of non-significance was issued. On June 14,1988 a revised proposal was submitted by the Leavitt's. The major changes to the proposal were that mitigative measures 1 through 7, 9, 10, 12, and 13 were incorporated in the proposal. Measures 8, 14, and 15 were not addressed in the revised proposal. A new mitigated determination of non-~ignificance was issued after an agreement was developed (August 1988) between the project propo- nent, their attorney, the Board, the Planning Department, and the Deputy Prosecuting Attorney which included the three conditions that were not VOl. 15 t~V 00 109 - .". -' Commissioners' Meeting Agenda: Week of 3anuary 9, 1989 Page: 4 proponent's Attorney was to review these three conditions but nothing was heard from him until November 1988 when he stated that his clients were not willing to agree to any mitigation on this project. The Prosecuting Attorney sent a letter to the proponents attorney dated December 27, 1988, which advised him that the Board would review the revised project and the existing mitigated determination of non-significance. Commissioner B. G. Brown moved to issue a revised mitigated determination of non-significance with the three mitigative measures agreed to on August 8, 1988. Commissioner Dennison seconded the motion. Discussion ensued regarding the revised projeot and the placement of mobile homes on the site. The Planning Department will write a letter of clarification to the Leavitt's explaining the subdivision ordinance regulations on placement of mobile homes. One mobile home per lot of record would be permitted. Any additional residences would have to meet the requirements of the sub- division ordinance. The Chairman called for a vote on the motion. The motion carried by a unanimous vote. aORTRACT #G0089064re: Wetland Inventory Project: Coastal Zone IIAnanement: Grant:: State Deparment: of EcolDCIY: This contract, Planning and Building Department Director David Goldsmith explained, is to provide funding for development of a handbook on how to identify wetlands.

The Marine Science Society, a non profit organization, has operated the Marine Science Center exhibit on the dock at Fort Worden St~te Park in exchange for the space they occupy. No admission fee has been charged to I the exhibit because of this lease arrangement. This arrang~ment makes it hard to raise funds for administering their programs. ' A request was made to the State Parks Department for funding to carryon the operation of this exhibit as well as some other programs planned in the area schools. The request was cut out of the Parks prelimihary budget and they are asking that it be reinstated.

The funds will be used for maintenance of this exhibit as well as for other programs, Frank D' Amore explained. i ! Commissioner B. G.
