Bruce and Paul Pazookie, Prellmlnary plat of Port Ludlow #4, SEPA Threshold Determination. Planner David Goldsmith submitted the response from Pope and Talbot regarding the four areas of concern discussed on July 10.

Engineer Becker reported that a 12% grade is acceptable. 2) Drainage - Pope and Talbot will install a 4 foot culvert and ditch the water off to the side at the bottom of the plat. Engineer Becker finds this satisfactory. 3) Recreational facilities - this plat will finalize the lots originally planned around the present recreational facilities. The final density using the present recreational facilities will be approximately 1248 units. 4) School site - Pope and Talbot will be happy to cooperate to provide land for a future 5 acre school site to serve the Chimacum School District.

Chairman Mercer signed the first L-5 report for quarter ending June 30, 1978. Carl Easters; BJSS, architects re: Proposed Jail Construction. Easters reported that the state would like to see a larger facility than he projected so he figures housing for 20 people would be satisfactory. It would be cheaper to build a new facility than to remodel the present jail. He must submit floor and site plans to the state. Total projected cost of $1,086,411.00 funded by the state. This does not include property and facilities for the Sheriff's administration and juvenile facilities. The Board was concerned about funding after the jail is built. The County will have the responsibility of maintenance and staffing. Easters can design it to be operated with a minimum number of people, and staying away from super sophisticated hardware and electronic systems. The design can only cut so much of the cost impact. One problem is that if the new facility is built away from the courthouse, then the prisoners would have to be transferred to the old jail to await court hearings. The cost for 1his could be great. The new jail has to be inside city limits. The Board feels the best solution is to look into remodeling the lower floor of the courthouse and build a new building adjacent to it and tie it in with an isolated corridor. Easters will take the courthouse plans and see if it can be done. Phil Boling appeared to discuss access across County property to his land out by the old Hadlock landfill. Planning Department: Chimacum Creek Estates, Division 2, proposed preliminary plat for 49 lots or less and a commercial area. The Board reviewed the environmental checklist with Planner Tom Aumock.

Lon Wyrick, Trident Coordinator, appeared to report that his position has been renewed for another year. He discussed the impact on the Beaver Valley Road. They expect 10 trucks per week will deliver the first 6 months, then two per week thereafter. Lon will try to get an update on the number of personnel expected on Indian Island. Ships will dock at Indian Island, and as many as 200 people a day could be on passes. The major impacts seem to be on the Beaver Valley road and on County parks. Wyrick will look into this and report back. Bill Howard, Prosecuting Attorney, re: County library. Howard reported that to establish a library district a petition is required with 10% of voters outside of the incorporated city. The millage cost would be about 6~ per $1,000 valuation.
