Planning Department Director Goldsmith reviewed the past events up to todays meeting. The Board read a letter from Dootson Properties, Inc. requesting the County withdraw the suspension of Building Permit #804 contingent upon they proceed at their own risk that an occupancy permit will be issued for the stipulated use. They feel that to stop the project at this time would result in undue financial hardship. The Planning Department outlined information required for the proposed project. Also reviewed was the Environmental Check- list Amendments. Goldsmith explained that A M Test, Inc. is doing a chemical analysis on the chemicals that will be used in the plant but the final report has not been received. The people opposed to the project argued that it will be a detriment to the environment concerning water and noise pollution. They also feel it is inconsistant with the County Comprehensive Plan and should be in an industrial area closer to Port Townsend. They complained of the lack of public notice on this project. Those in favor stated that the pollution in the creek and Quilcene Bay is primarily from single family dwellings and the proposed project would not pollute the water any more than it is already. After nearly two hours of discussion, Commissioner O'Meara moved to allow the building permit to go into effect only to complete the closure of the building so the unused lumber can be stored. All building will be at the risk of the proponents should the proposed project not be approved. Commis- sioner Mercer seconded the motion. Unanimous. Until the requested information is received there will be no further action. BUSINESS FROM COUNTY DEPARTMENTS: Public Works reo 1. Emergency log jamb removal, Queets River Bridge.
