PORT LUDLOW-MARINA EXPANSION
Jon-
I am informed that ORM will be present at the County Dept. of Community
Development for a pre-application hearing on May 3 at 9:30 AM. I am further informed
that the subject of this pre-application meeting is to discuss the process of applying for
and obtaining the necessary County permits for an expansion of the marina by 100
slips. I am also informed that at the planner-to-planner level there is some
disagreement between County staff and ORM staff as to what type of EIS, if any, would
be needed with respect to the plans to add 100 marina slips. I was told that ORM felt an
"addendum" to the existing EIS would be enough and the COunty felt such a proposal
would require a "supplemental" EIS.
This matter has been discussed in some detail by the County with me.
I was also under the impression that attorney DeMarco from Tremaine, Wright, et
al would contact me about this last week. He or she never did.
It is our conclusion that Port Ludlow-MPR Ordinance Section 3.902, item #1, is
controlling. (See page 20 of 26.) That section suggests that at a minimum there
should be no piecemealing. This proposal for 100 slips (which apparently is a
freestanding and sole application with respect to the Port Ludlow resort area) appears
to be precisely an attempt to piecemeal.
Section 3.902 of the MPR Ordinance also states that a supplemental EIS is
needed "prior to issuance of building permits for any new resort development." This
only serves to dovetail with what is in Section 3.904 of the MPR Ordinance, which again
speaks of a Supplemental EIS.
These are the concerns and the questions that will be posed to ORM staff at the
pre-application hearing. I see the language of the MPR Ordinance as quite
straightforward in this regard. Pleasee take these statements under advisement,
discuss them with your attorney if need be and contact me before the pre-application
meeting if any questions or concerns arise. I generally DO NOT attend pre-application
meetings. I am at (360) 385-9219.
Please also write back with your list of phone numbers, as I can't seem to find
them.
