PLAD:ING AIm BUILDIKG
State Environmental PolicY Act Review~ Rhodv Industrial Park.
Anderson Lake Road: Tom Graves. et al: Eight interested persons were
present when Planning and Building Department Director David Goldsmlth
reminded the Board that a petition was received from residents of the Tri
Area last week stating concerns about the proposed Rhody Industrial Park.
The 15 day comment period on the mitigated determination of non-significance
has expired and now the Board can make a determination with regard to how to
proceed with this project. The Prosecuting Attorney has responded to the
Board's request for guidance on how to proceed . The petition was then
discussed.
Commissioner Dennison noted that the important thing to remember is that the
Tri Area Community Development plan was developed as a consensus of the
communi ty and it states the policy that is in question because of this
proposed project. Commissioner B. G. Brown added that some of the people
that contacted him questioned the integrity of the ,Tri Area Community Plan
if this project is approved. It is an area issue, not just an issue
regarding this intersection.
Tom Graves: Tom Graves stated that if people don "t understand what is going
on with this project it is because there hasn't been anything in the Port
Townsend Leader, such as all of the ~onditions that tne project has to meet.
Commissioner B. G. Brown stated tha~ many of the people he has spoken with
were aware of the mitigative measures placed on the project. The ~~estion
is whether or not this project is appropriate in light of what the comprehen-
sive plan for that area says. Co~issioner Dennison questioned if it is
appropriate to continue to redesign~te industrial or commercial vis-a~-vis
industrial throughout the County when we have those areas already designated
and unused, especially in an area' where the County policy is obviously
against it? .
Chairman Brown explained that it is his understanding that if the Board does
not take any action today, the m~tigated determination non-significance
stands as approved. Planning and Building Department Director David
Goldsmith confirmed that is correct Commissioner Dennison added that the
goals of the commercial section of the Tri Area Community Plan state that
i::;;_

commercial developments consistent' wi th a small town rural area are en-
couraged.

Tom Graves Tom Graves added that thij' project will not happen over night, and
it may not even be fully developed ,in the next five years. This area has
changed since the Community Development plan was developed and will change
even more in the next five to ten y~ars. No one is going to live on that
corner in a house because of the traffic impact to the area right now.
The Tri Area Plan is explicit about what type of project should not be placed
at this intersection, Commissioner Dennison stated and added that the County
should look' at this proposal more! carefully. It is not known how the
community feels about the development of this specific area right now.
3im Hathawav: 3im Hathaway stated that since there isn't a specific plan for
what will be placed at this site, anything could locate there. He added that
he has lived in that area since 198'2 and he doesn't know of any commercial
businesses locating in that area siqce then.
Tom Graves: Tom Graves stated that there is mitigation to govern exactly what
can go on this site. Rachel Nathanson clarified that light industrial and/or
commercial development could be located at this project site. It may be Mr.
Graves position, Rachel Nathanson. continued, that they would not allow
certain types of commercial busines$es on the site, and the Board discussed
possibly adding a mitigative measur~ to the project restricting commercial
development on the site, but that has not be added. Mr. Graves added that
he has no plans to all a gas statio~ or a fast food business at this site.
He noted that any light manufacturing business would be acceptable. Any
business locating at the site would have to meet the County noise standards
and each business would be contained within a building, not outside.
Commissioner Dennison asked why a business would locate at this site and not
at another site? Mr. Graves stated that there isn't any other place to rent
especially in this area.
30hn Tvner: Mr. Tyner asked why this project doesn't locate two miles further
down the road (between Ness's Corn~r and the Community Shell Gas Station)
where it is already designated light industrial/commercial?
Tom Graves: Tom Graves responded that he doesn't own property there and he
didn't know about the community plan when he purchased this property.
Commissioner Dennison stated that he believes there are greater impacts than
are known now and a judgement about what the impac!ts are going to be cannot
be made without talking with the local residents who have already purchased
property and invested in homes in th:is area. The options that the Board can
take today are: 1) let the mitigateddeterminationiof non-~ignificance stand
as it was issued, or 2) retract the mitigated4etermination of non-sig-
nificance and issue another determination. Commissioner Dennison moved to
retract the mitigated determination of non-significance, table action on the
threshold determination for this proaect and adopt the findings of fact which
outline the need for adequate additional information on 1) The compatibility
with the area land use plan, 2) transportation lmpacts, and 3) impacts on
existing residences. The need for this information: is predicated on the fact
that a substantial response has beenireceived from the community as evidenced
by the petition which stated that the 90+ petitionets didn't feel the project
was in keeping with the area plan.. Commissioner!B. G. Brown seconded the
motion for discussion. He clarified! that the motion means that the mitigated
determination of non-significance is being withdzrawn and put on the table
until the Board determines what additional information is needed and if it
will be developed by an environmental impact statement, the public hearing
process or some other means, that is determined. to be the best tool for
coming to a conclusion on this Plioject. That. is correct, Commissioner
Dennison added.
The Chairman called for a vote on ,the motion. Commissioner Dennison and
Commissioner B. G. Brown voted in favor of the motion which passed.

Elsie StumD: Mrs. Stump stated that she lives beside the proposed industrial
park. No one has ever asked her to sign this petition. She stated that she
doesn't see any problem with this project. She sees no reason, because this
area is already commercial/residential, to prevent putting in a commercial
development.
Mr. Hathawav: Mr. Hathaway asked how many notifications were sent out to the
adjoining property owners? He stated that he didn't feel very many notifica-
tions were sent out.
Rachel Nathanson reported that the Planning and Building Department notifies
the adjacent property owners when the Planning Commission holds a public
hearing on a project. Notification was sent to the immediately adjacent
property owners as well as being pUblished in the Port Townsend Leader.
Tom Graves: Mr. Graves asked about the next step? Commissioner B. G. Brown
stated that the Board will have to determine the best way to proceed and then
they will let him know. Rachel Nathanson added that Planning and Building
Department will notify the project proponent, the adjacent property owners,
and Mr. Tyner, who can then notify the people who signed the petition, of the
next step when a determination is made.
The Board concurred that they can make a determination on the best way to
proceed at the scheduled meeting with the Planning Department at 2:00 p.m.
at the April 10, 1989 meeting.
Request for Time Extension: TemDOrarv Real Estate Office: Paradise
BaY Road and Hiahwav 104 :Int:ersection: ERA Real Est:ate: Rachel Nathanson
explained that the Board previously approved a 120 day temporary use permit
for the ERA Real Estate office at Highway 104 and Paradise Bay Road
I intersection. This temporary use permit expires April 5, 1989. ERA Real
Estate has requested that another 120 day temporary use permit be granted.
i
Commissioner B. G. Brown asked if the applicant gave a reason for this
extension. Rachel Nathanson reported that the applicant indicated that not
all of the five acre parcels in the area have been sold and they would like
to continue this office to help with these sales. The discussion turned to
how many of these five acre parcels are left, especially since there is an
ERA office a few miles up the road from this site.
Commissioner Dennison moved to deny the request for an extension of the
temporary use permit for the ERA Real Estate office at the Paradise Bay Road
and Highway 104 intersection. Commissioner B. G. Brown seconded the motion
which carried by a unanimous vote.
