Jack Padia, County Building Inspector, and Randall Durant, District Sanitar- ian appeared re: Letter from Durant relating to an amendment to the Build- ing Code. The Health Department recommends that an amendment be added to the Code removing the exemption of the building permit requirement for garages to prevent structures from being built over the existing septic tank and drainfield. padia recommends the amendment be added so he can be aware of the proposed location, type of flooring, height of ceiling, size of door opening, etc. Due to the original recommendation for exemption coming from the Planning Commission, it was moved by Commissioner Mercer and seconded by Chairman Brown (in brief absence of Commissioner O'Meara) to refer the matter back to the Planning Commission for reconsideration and recommendation.

Engineer Becker advised that he had been contacted by George and David Cotton in regard to Cotto~ Corporation's petition for vacation of a portion of the old Hadlock-Chimacum road, and they requested that petition be dropped because they could not provide and equal amount of right-of-way to the County. Therefore, in light of the evidence presented, it was moved by Commissioner Mercer and sdconded by commissioner O'Meara to deny Cotton Corporation's petition for vacation. Unanimous. Winston Frenzel and Merle Fitz, who own property in the Plat of Olympus Beach Tracts came in to ask if the County has any plans for completion of the road contiguous to their property. Engineer Becker advised that there are no immediate plans because there is only a 30 ft. right-of-way at the present time, with the other 30 ft. still unplatted and in acreage. The Board recommends th~1 establish the right-of-way lines and push a road through themselves to use as a.driveway. Chuck Myers appeared to inquire into the latest information on the Trident project.

Amount of monies needed is $3,900.00 for the year.
