Arthur Kratz, Paradise Bay re: Port Ludlow Develooment: Mr. Kratz and seven other Paradise Bay residents came before the Board to express concerns about the Port Ludlow Development plan. Mr . Kratz stated that sever~l years ago the residents of Paradise Bay were promised that there would be a road built from the Hood Canal Bridge, over the ridge to Port Ludlow, which would by-pass the Paradise Bay area. The residents of the area are not against development, but they would like to have some kind of insurance that there will not be a great increase in traffic on the Paradise Bay Road. Mr. Kratz asked what plans have been made for this new road? . , Chairman Brown advised that when an alternative road over the ridge was researched it was found that the expense was prohibitive. Another alterna- tive was researched along the base of the ridge just above where the old Paradise Bay water system (Water District #2) was located. The water system was still used at that time and if the road had been installed it would have I interfered with the water system. A man reported.that this old water system has not been abandoned because it is used as a backup for the new system, but it could be if a road is planned for the area. The stream in the area is not used any lon~er. 'lot 14 rA(;~ o 2040 ell ... .' Commissioners' Meeting Minutes: week of June 13, 1988 Page: 2 The Public Works Department could research this alternative route again, Chairman Brown stated. Prentice Danqerfield: One of the objections the County had when this road was discussed before was that access to one parcel of property could not be obtained. The Water District has since installed a road in along that property and probably would release some of the necessary access. Naoma Haakenson: Mrs. Haakenson who lives in Paradise Bay stated that two weeks ago two State Patrolmen issued 42 tickets between 5:30 and 9:00 a.m. along the stretch of Paradise Bay Road where they live. Llovd McGath: Mr. McGath asked if the Port Ludlow Development plan includes more residential development near the Golf Course? Senior Planner Rachel Nathanson reported that residential development is planned for the east side of Teal Lake Road and some large acreage parcels are planned for development south of the Golf Course. Mr.' McGath added that Teal Lake Road could be upgraded to connect with Highway 104. Chairman Brown advised that upgrading Teal Lake Road has been researched and would cost a great deal of money. Rachel Nathanson suggested that a letter be written to the State Department of Transportation, asking them to change their directional signs on Highway 104. The one at Paradise Bay Road which directs people to Port Ludlow could be moved to the Beaver Valley Road turnoff. Public Works Director, Gary Rowe, reported that the DOT was asked to do that previously and the Realtors in the area asked that the sign be put back on Paradise Bay Road. Gary Rowe advised that he would talk to the State DOT about this problem. Dick Conover: Mr. Conover stated that the main concern is that Pope and Talbot will develop their plans without provision for taking care of this road problem. Chairman Brown advised that there are provisions in the development plan that address their participation in upgrading any intersec- tions where problems will occur.

PLANNING David Cunninaham, Vice President Land Use, Pope Resources re: State Environmental PolicY Act Review. Port Ludlow DeveloOIDent Plan: (See also Minutes of 6/6/88) Senior Planner Rachel Nathanson explained that based on the June 7 meeting, the Planning Department made a list of additional items and asked Pope Resources for comments: 1} Capacity of the wastewater treatment plan (refer to Ann Quantock' s comments in 6/6/88 minutes), 2) Potential impact to adjacent creeks and properties from the use of pest- icides, herbicides and fertilizers on the golf course, 3} Clarification of the Department of Fisheries and Department of Ecology submission regarding the additional water removal from Ludlow creek and potential impacts to the fishery resource. Pope Resources responded to these items in a letter dated June 9, 1988. Rachel Nathanson then reviewed Mr. cunningham's letter. She further reported with reference to the wastewater treatment plant capacity. that she talked with Patty Kirk, an Engineer with the State Department of Ecology, who advised that the plant is designed to handle 640,000 gallons per day capacity. As development occurs and 85% capacity is reached, the DOE will then require that Pope Resources submit detailed plans for the use of the rest of the capacity. DOE would make a determination on whether or not the plant could handle the plans for. the use of the last 15% of capaci tyand based on that determination, Pope Resources would be given the choice of completing development or looking at plant expansion. In discussiog the water use fro~ J:.udlow Creek, commissioner Dennison stated that he feels it is not a quest;ion "of water rights to the creek, . but more a question of total water usage from the creek at a time that might be critical to the salmon fishery.

Rachel Nathanson then reviewed the 14 suggested mitigative measures. Richard Wilson, Attorney for Pope Resources: Mr. Wilson stated that this review is being done in a phased approach. This means that even if a Mitigated DNS is issued on the overall development plan, each additional phase will have to have an environmental review itself. Ann Quantock: Mrs. Quantock said she still has some concerns, which may be best directed to the State Department of Ecology. She does not feel that her central question was addressed by Pope Resources. Ms. Quantock added that her intent is not to prevent Pope Resources from developing its' property. Her intention is to ask that they make sure the treatment plant is adequate to handle their planned development.
