Road Construction Program - 1980 to 1985. The hearing will be held
at 10:30 a.m., Monday, June 25, 1979 in the County Commissioners'
Chambers. The Board approved and signed hearing notice.
Hearing. Proposed Road Vacation; Portion of the Old
Chimacum-Hadlock County Road 18.15.63, Robert Fifer petitioner. The
applicant is requesting to vacate a triangular portion because it is
not being used as a County Road but as a service area for the Mobile
gas station and a parking area for Bill's Barber Shop. The Public Works
Department recommends not vacating because it will conflict with the
orderly expansion of County Road system and hinder overall area circula-
tion in the future. The Planning Commission recommends approving the
vacation with one three part condition. Pay fees to the County for
a) past expenditures, b) installation of a flex beam gaurdrail and
concrete posts, and c) construction of a new alignment across from the
Hadlock Apartments. Bill Breitweg said that he would like to see the
dangerous turns that are being made eliminated but doesn't want to
eliminate access for people on the road. Mr. Fifer said that people
are cutting through his property rather than going up to the signal
light and turning. Traffic is cutting through on the average of 40 mph.
with regards to insurance, Mr. Fifer said, speed bumps are out of the
question. Commissioner Brown moved to deny the vacation and stipulated
for the Engineer to look into barricading the road in order to make
another access in a better location. Also survey where County rights-
of-way are. Commissioner Mercer seconded the motion. Unanimous.
Charles Anderson of Time Oil Company was present.
Jim Cotton appeared regarding the Cotton Long Plat that was
approved June 4, 1979. Carol Saari brought to the attention of the
Board problems in the sequence of events concerning the Road Vacation
Resolution No. 20-79 vacated by the Board February 14, 1979. Because
the road vacation was signed prior to the deed, Mrs. Monroe still has
interest in the coroner of Lot 1 of Mr. Cotton's long plat, hence the
long plat cannot go through. David Goldsmith and Gary Rowe were present.
Goldsmith explained that at this point Mrs. Monroe doesn't understand
the problem and won't have any thing more to do with it. The Board
will talk with the Prosecuting Attorney for advise.
Hearing. Petition for Plat Alteration; Chalmer's No.2
Addition to Irondale. Art Sullivan petitioner. Mr. & Mrs. Sullivan
appeared. The proposed alteration is to change Block 17 by decreasing
the 32 lots to 10 as shown on the plat. The mylar will be prepared
after Board's approval. The Health Department approved the alteration.
The Board approved the Plat Alteration with the condition that the
private access provision be clearly stated on the face of the plat map.
The Board will sign the resolution after presentation and review of the
mylar.

Peter Badame and Sandra Stevens appeared and gave the Board
the Transportation System Inventory and Recommendation from the Jefferson
County Transportation Advisory Committee. Carol Saari explained the
process of the report. They submitted a copy of the Jefferson County;'
Indian Island Transportation Survey also. The Navy told the Advisory
Committee that they are not supplying transportation for their employees.
Carol Saari explained that they sent a copy of the Transportation Survey
to the Navy for comments and they replied that it was adequate. The
Committee feels that there are enough vehicle equipment in the County
to put together a coordinated transportation system. what is needed is
a control dispatch system. Mr. Badame said he would return within a
month to see what directions the Board advises.
Jim Perkins representing Tri-Cone and Associates appeared
regarding the Shoreline Management Substantial Development Permit #38-76
Revision. Tom Aumock presented the application of Tri-Cone & Assc. for
revision to the Shoreline Management Substantial Development Permit of
Holland F. Barrett, #38-76 for Discovery Bay Lodge. The revision
proposed amounts to a location change of one structure, moving it
inland and a use change from motel to time-share condominiums. Mr.
Perkins gave his views on the changes stating that he feels the changes
do not warran.t a new Shoreline Management Substantial Development Permit.
Reed Gunstone, in behalf of Johnson & Gunstone Clam Farms and the neigh-
boring residents, the Broders, feels that the Tri-Cone & Assc. plans are
potentially good but thinks the changes are sufficient enough to warrant
a new application for a Shoreline Management Substantial Development
Permit. Commissioner Mercer moved to continue discussion Monday, June
18, 1979 so as the Board can discuss the matter with the Prosecuting
Attorney. Commissioner Brown seconded the motion. Unanimous.
Tom Escene came in to discuss with the Board about a discrep-
ancy in the Jefferson County Health Department concerning fees for
septic system permits. The permit fee for a new system is $30.00 and
a repair is $10.00. He told the Board that he replaced a man's septic
tank and drainfie1d and the man was charged by the Health Department
for a new system permit. Mr. Escene feels this is not a new system and
should not have been charged as such. He explained that he felt that
this encourges people not to do what is right. The Board advised Mr.
Escene to tell the man to write a letter to the Health Department and
it will be brought up at the next Health Board Meeting.
Lee Smith, Sheriff, spoke with the Board about the need for
a budget extension. Commissioner Mercer moved to set hearing date for
