Club: Commissioner Pitts, seconded-Commissioner Brbwn'smotion to
approve the rental of the VFW Hall by the Victoriani Squares Square Dance
Club for January 20, 1984. Unanimous. !
The Grange's suggestion is to widen the road for a ,eft hand turn lane
and a right turn lane when traveling from North to outh. This wouH
better accomodate the traffic from the school and tie Tri-Area Commun-
ity Center. Setting the power pole back 25 to 35 f!et and keeping the
bicycle path were also suggested.
The Board referred the letter to the Public Works Dpartment and advised
Mr. Butts and Mr. Rudolph that all of the ramifica:ions would have to
be given consideration. Putting in a left hand tur; lane would make the
road wider and could possibly cause a problem for t'e school children
who have to cross the street after school.

HEARING Re; Jefferson County Building Cod~: Chairman
O'Meara opene t e ear1ng at : a.m. In respon e to the Chair-
man's request for testimony, Mr. Claude Boling, a p ivate building con-
tractor, indicated that the proposed building permit fees were being
increased to an excessive level. He feels that the~e costs should be
kept as low as possible to encourage people to buil in this county.
Planning Director, David Goldsmith,explained that t e permit fees
only paid for about 50% of the administrative and 0' erhead costs of
the building inspection department, last year. Wit, the new fee
schedule it is predicted that 80% of the costs will' be paid directly
by the fees and the balance will be paid by the COUll ty taxpayer's.
David went on to say that his review of 'the fees chal_ged by neigh-
boring counties indicated that Clallam County's feef are 30% higher
than those being proposed and Kitsap County's are 40% higher.

ance, and the Chairman closed the hearing. Commissioner Brown moved
