Dear Mr. Scalf;
My wife and own a home in the South Bay portion of Port Ludlow. We moved here
in December, 1996 and have enjoyed the magnificent environment that attracted us
here to retire. We have been here long enough to have been involved in the
involvement of the community in the planning of the build out of this community by
Olympic Resource Management - the previous owner - and we have seen the
proposed changes being put forward by the new owners Port Ludlow Associates. We
have serious concerns with the proposed changes in the resort area as detailed in the
DSEIS currently under review by your office.
Weare very concerned with density issues and the number of residential units
proposed for construction in what is not only a very attractive part of this community
but in such a small area. The plan that was approved in 1994 is a much better use of
the available land and helps to maintain the most appealing features of the resort
area.
The Resort at Port Ludlow has become little more than a motel for those who want to
get away for the weekend. This has occurred because the developer made a business
decision to effectively exit the resort business in favor of residential construction.
This is fine. There is plenty of available land within the MPR boundary to build very
fine homes that would not detract from the natural beauty of the area. Please do not
deviate from the 1994 plan.
Weare also concerned that if you were to approve the increased density in housing in
the resort area that serious traffic and parking issues will occur on the interior roads
of the area being develop.ed. The could be issues of life safety with the limited street

access in that area.
Finally, we strongly object to the proposal to build residences over the pond. This is
simply not acceptable and frankly destructive to the attractiveness of the resort area.
Again we urge you to disapprove the PLA proposal and let stand the 1994 plat design.
Sincerely,
Ed and Jan Knodle
