AI, I would like to voice my concern about three aspects ofPLA's plans to further develop the Marina and
Resort area of the Port Ludlow MPR.
I remain concerned about the traffic and parking congestion likely to result from the increased building density
that is proposed. A copy of my previous letter to Greg McCarry and his response is attached.
Based upon PLA's development record, I believe that bonds required by Jefferson County should be posted by
PLA with the County to provide the amenities committed in the Development Agreement and should be a
condition to further construction and development. The County has the right and power to require bonds from
the developer and Port Ludlow's residents would benefit from the protection of these bonds.
I am concerned that the planned expansion of the Marina will unreasonably encroach upon existing shoreline
docks and structures to the West of the present marina docks(C, D & E).
Finally, I am sure that you will agree that any development must comply with all current County, State
and Federal regulations including Shoreline Management Act requirements and current building codes such as
housing setback and road width restrictions spelled out in Jefferson County code.
Respectfully,

Dear Greg,
I would like to thank you for your effort in providing me and other interested Port Ludlow property
owners with information pertaining to the Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement and
PLA's development plans for the Marina area. I particularly appreciate receiving your historical
perspective on the development of the Port Ludlow MPR as I am a relative newcomer to this fine
community.
I have recently agreed to serve on the Community Development Committee of the Port Ludlow
Village Council and expect to contribute toward the productive growth and development of this
community. In that spirit, I am writing to you directly about my concern with one aspect of your
proposal instead of adding to the letters addressing environmental impact issues that are
sent to Al Scalf.
and her conscientious staff manage the present Marina facilities very efficiently for
ts and guests although parking and access is limited. Your proposal to expand the
ing an additional I 00 slips and to locate a restaurant, recreational facility and new
homes in this space should be considered further. This concentration of facilities
ult in limited parking for marina tenants, restaurant and club guests as well as traffic
e townhouse residents. When combined with the parking and traffic constraints that
m other aspects of your proposed development of this area, I truly believe that this
rt of Port Ludlow will be considered less rather than more desirable.
roceeds with the development of this area, I hope that you will invite Larry Nobles
unity Development Committee to participate in your planning process so that the interests of
residents they represent may aid in making Port Ludlow a better place. I look forward to
contributing to this process.
Regards,
Francis Wickeham

Dear Francis:
Thank you for your letter and commentS with repnl to the Uadl&w Bay Village project.
Your expresaed concern for ~ml is noW The iJIut of""'"". ... broqIlt '"
by Randy Shelley at the June )"', PLVC meeting. There seemed to be a paeral
cOl1HlJ&US amens the Board members that this is an inue of common CODC;em. 4s a
respo:tl$e. at that meeting 1 made a request to tbe PL VC to appoint a Committee to meet
with me and a professional traffic engineer sotbalparkil)g issues can be addressed.
'While my otter was not accepted I repeated the offer at a subsequent PL VC meeting. As
of this date no one 'rOOl the PL VC or CDC has responded to my offer to work on
resolving issues.
Port Ludlow Associates is not interested in building infrastructure tllat does not provide
adequate parking to access the facilities. 1.00 not believe it is prudent to build a
restaurant where patrons can't park. We are interested in seeking solutions to issues such
as these.
1 am in the process of selecting 10 to 1 S ~ who might be intcrtsted in meetiDj
with me on a once a month basis to assess com.mwity eoacaDI ~ work.on ~.
TbiI group wovld be ieIected to represent golfers, boaters, residents at large and residents
at the Ludlow Bay Village project. I would like to invite you to coasider partieipaUna
and 1 would alto look forward toa meetingwitb you to discuutbe idea.
If you have thoughts 00 thia please let me know.
