Hearing. Proposed Camper Club Ordinance. Director of Planning
David Goldsmith presented the proposed changes. Peter Buck, attorney for
the Thousand Trails Camper Club, appeared concerned if whether the new pro-
posed ordinance would include the already approved camper clubs. Mr. Buck
stated that he had been advised by Mr. Goldsmith and Mr. Howard at the be-
ginning of the year that this ordinance would not include already approved
development. The proposed ordinance does not include this so he suggested
a paragraph be added which would eliminate all previously approved develop-
ments but would govern any increases in these developments. "grandfather clause"
Mr. Lambert, representing the Toandos Peninsula Association, told the
Board that they feel the Thousand Trails Camper Club should not be excluded
from the proposed ordinance because they are not yet in operation. Mr.
Buck responded by stating that there has been hundreds of thousands of
dollars already spent on major construction. Mr. Lambert objected to .Mr.
_Buck's proposed amendment to add the "grandfather clause". Commissioner
Mercer felt that whether or not the "grandfather clause" is in the ordin-
aneth, .:it _would~still be in effect.
The Board closed the hearing but tooR no action at this time. ~~r.

Shoreline Permit No. 30-78; John R. Hansen, alleged violation.
Planner Tom Aumock outlined the proceedings up to this point. 7 persons
appeared. Sheila Stump of the State Office of Archaeology & Historic Pres-
ervation told the Board that a telephone call in August of 1979 was made
to the Planning Department notifying the County on the progress of the
development and their concerns for archeological testing. The Planning
Department does not recall the telephone conversation and has no record of
any action taken. Mr. Hansen told the Board that he was notified only 2
weeks ago of the alleged violation. Mrs. Stump feels this area could be a
very good archeological testing site to fill in a 3,000 year historic time
gap. She submitted information on the lower Hadlock site and emphasized
the need for testing.
Bob Bartlett appeared in behalf of Mr. Hansen to give more background
information on the area. Through his wife's grandfather, the inhabited
areas were described to him which did not include the area near the old
alcohol plant. Hence, Mr. Bartlett feels there is nothing being disturbed.
Mr. Hansen's attorney, Mr. Holloway III, told the Board there has not been
any dirt disturbed in upland areas (the area in question) and feels there
is no violation. He stated that Hansen has not yet started to develop that
property and is aware of the permit conditions before doing so.
Mr. Waterhouse stressed that they didn't want to stop progress, however,
they want to see this area tested for historical information. Mr. Hansen,
Mrs. Stump, and Mr. Goldsmith will meet together in order that details to
comply with the permit can be worked out.
Mr. & Mrs. H. G. Gentemann from Clearwater appeared regarding
the proposed stock restriction area in Clearwater. The Gentemann's sub-
mitted an additional petition of names of people wishing to take their names
off the original petition or amend it. They debated, with no conclusion,
on whether or not the signatures on the original petition should be residents
of the area. The Gentemanns stated that the hearing was not advertised to
the best advantages of the people living in the area of concern. The hear-
ing notice was published in the Port Townend Leader, Port Angeles Daily
News, Forks Forum, and posted at the Clearwater Annex Courthouse. Commis-
sioner Brown moved to delay action until May 12, 1980 due to additional
evidence being introduced, Commissioner Mercer seconded the motion. Unani-
