Michelle, your leadership of the SMP update process in Jefferson looks like it still has momentum. We hope to be

Hello All,
Just a reminder that the Planning Commission will meet tomorrow night (6:30pm at WSU Extension/Shold
Business Park in Port Hadlock) for a Special Meeting to continue deliberations on the Preliminarv Draft SMP.
The agenda is online at
http://www.co.iefferson.wa.us/commdevelopment/PDFS/PCAgenda/2009%20Agendas/PC%20Agenda%2002-
25-09 Spec%20mtg.pdf. They intend to discuss Beach Access Structures and Boating Facilities.

Yesterday, the Board of County Commissioners (BoCC) received the Planning Commission letter of request for a
90-day timeline extension. BoCC delayed taking action on that request until DCD staff and the County
Administrator can present additional information on the schedule & budget implications. This is anticipated in
the next few weeks.
Also, two efforts at new State legislation are underway that could affect shoreline planning & management:
. Companion bills HB 1970 & SB 5836 propose to eliminate the County from reviewing proposals for
marine transport facilities for sand/gravel mining operations, leaving WA Dept of Natural Resources as
sole authority. The bills are written to focus only on Jefferson County by definition of population and
location. Learn more and/or contact your State representative directly (NOT Jefferson County) online
at:
o http://apPs.leg.wa.gov/billinfo/summarv.aspx?bill=1970&vear=2009 and
o http://apPs.leg.wa.gov/billinfo/summarv.aspx?bill=5836&vear=2009
. HB 1653 is proposed by WA Departments of Ecology and Community, Trade & Economic Development
(CTED) and supported by the WA Assn. of Ports to clarify the relationship between Growth Management
Act Critical Areas regulations and Shoreline Management Act Shoreline regulations. This is in light of the
Anacortes/Futurewise decision by State Supreme Court which is awaiting action on a Motion for
Reconsideration. Learn more and contact your State representative directly (NOT Jefferson County)
online at:
o http://apps.leg.wa.gov/billinfo/summarv.aspx?bill=1653&vear=2009 .
