MINUTES
Week of May 8,2006
Chairman Phil Johnson called the meeting to order in the presence of Commissioner David
W. Sullivan and Commissioner Patrick M. Rodgers.
Judi Morris, Treasurer re: Surplus Property: Judi Morris explained that this is a small
triangular piece of property off 22nd Street and Discovery Road that was appraised in 2003 for $12,000,
declared surplus, and was scheduled for auction in 2004. The City of Port Townsend had some concerns
about the property because a citizen had put a road through it to connect the two streets. Currently, the City
doesn't have an easement but if they chose to improve the road, approximately 55% of the property would
be used for the right-of-way. In December, 2005 the County received a bid from an adjacent property owner
for $6,000. At the time, the Treasurer, the Civil Deputy Prosecuting Attorney and the Board agreed to
accept the offer with a condition in the deed that a portion of the property would be set aside for the City.
Last month, the original offer of $6,000 was reduced to $1,000.
The Treasurer recommended that the Board reaffirm that they think that the property is worth $6,000 and
that the new offer is not acceptable. The Board agreed with the Treasurer's recommendation. Judi Morris
stated that she will send a letter to the citizen who had made the offer.
APPROVAL OF MINUTES: Commissioner Sullivan moved to approve the minutes of April
17, 2006 as presented. Commissioner Rodgers seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote.
PROCLAMATION re: Proclaiming May 7 -13, 2006 as Elk's Youth Week: Chairman
Johnson read the proclamation designating May 7 through 13,2006 as Elk's Youth Week. Commissioner
Rodgers moved to approve the proclamation as presented. Commissioner Sullivan seconded the motion

Letter of Support for Jefferson County Historical Society Grant Application; Washington
State Historical Society: Commissioner Sullivan explained that he received a request from the Jefferson
County Historical Society for a letter of support for a $600,000 grant they are seeking. The grant, from the
Washington State Historical Society Heritage Resource Center, would provide funding to create interactive
exhibits using state-of-the-art audio-visual and computer technology.
Commissioner Sullivan moved to have the Board sign a letter in support ofthe grant to the Washington
State Historical Society. Commissioner Rodgers seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote.
PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD: The following comments were made: the Board needs to
take immediate action this year to reduce spending and not wait until the 2007 budget, and in some recent
cases the Growth Management Hearings Boards ruled against local governments and followed a trend
currently being set by public agencies regarding endangered species regulation and environmental land use,
and these Hearing Boards do not have the authority to make a bright line rule or to make public policy.
APPROVAL AND ADOPTION OF THE CONSENT AGENDA: Commissioner Rodgers
moved to approve the Consent Agenda as presented. Commissioner Sullivan seconded the motion which
carried by a unanimous vote.
