BUSINESS FROM COUNTY DEPARTMENTS PUBLIC WORKS HEARING re: Auulication for Franchise: To Construct, Overate and Maintain a Potable Water Distribution System on Countv Road Riahts-of-Way: Citv of Port Townsend: Twelve Marrowstone Island residents were present when Public Works Director, Gary Rowe, explained that this franchise application is for the City of Port Townsend to operate their water system outside the City limits. This application is to update their franchise because the water system has been extended to the Oak Bay Park as well as the residences adjacent to the Park. The areas of the County served by the City of Port Townsend water system were defined by the Coordinated Water Service Plan done several years ago. The City service area does not include anything on Marrowstone Island, Gary Rowe reported. Chairman Brown opened the hearing for public comment. Stan Lybeck stated that the Marrowstone Island residents came to this meeting today because they heard that the City may run a water line on Marrowstone Island. Commis- sioner B. G. Brown clarified that City water only goes onto Marrowstone Island to serve the U.S. Fish Hatchery at Fort Flagler State Park. Gary Rowe reported that the Public Utility District also has a franchise in the County and would serve areas not served by the City. In the future if there was a demand for water to be provided to Marrowstone Island, it would be provided by the PUD. " Planning Director, David Goldsmith, reported that the Coordinated Water Service Plan defines a service area for the City of Port Townsend water system and that the service area does not match up with the boundary defined in this franchise application. He recommended that this franchise applica- tion either be tabled or conditioned in such a way that the service area boundary and the franchise area are adjusted to agree. Hearing no further public comment Chairman Brown closed the hearing. Commissioner B. G. Brown moved to table the action on this franchise application until the legal description for it is in agreement with the City Service area as defined in the Coordinated Water Service Plan. Commissioner Dennison seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote.
