How many that took part in your project have owned property that will be affected by this "VERY POLITICAL" decision.[MLM] At least 4 members of our advisory committees are shoreline property owners. The Planning Commission Chair should Exclude (or Resign) from making any comments or voting on this. He is a Shell Fish Producer!!!!!!!!!!![MLM] PC is a legislative body, not quasi-judicial, PC Chair Peter Downey has no legal obligation to recuse himself. Read more about the Appearance of Fairness Doctrine online at http://mrsc.orq/Publications/textafd.aspx I plan on urging the PUD to make a stand against passing this mess that has been created at taxpayers expense. Your Number 3 about the PDN over generalizing, you mean that they did not write what you wanted. If you wanted the public involved you would of had your meetings when the working class could attend. After the dinner hour.[MLM] Twenty-two (22) meetings of the advisory committees were held during the day as preferred by committee members, were publicly noticed and open to public attendance including observer comment periods. Fourteen (14) of the twenty-two (22) public outreach events (open houses, neighborhood information booths) were held after 5pm on weekdays or on weekends. The folks in the West End have been left high and dry. [MLMJ We have visited the West End twice - twelve (12) people attended the first event, and on the second occasion, no one attended the public event. Like I told you at you first unveiling at the Alcohol plant. You have done an excellent job of keeping under the RADAR!!!!! 427 have this on their Radar now.[MLM] We have -350 people on our emaillist, and have sent direct mailings to over 3,000 shoreline property owners on five (5) occasions. Only a few have been returned by the US Postal Service as undeliverable. How many in your group actuallv have (OWN) property that will be affected??? see you tonight Wayne King Jefferson County PUD Commissioner 1 District #3 Home 797-7491 www.ieffoud.ora ----- Original Message ----- Fromf;MichelteMcConnell To: Michelle McConnell Sent: Wednesday, February 25, 2009 2:57 PM Subject: SMP: web edits & myth busters Hi all, WEB EDITS Also want to let you know additional edits have been made to the webpage. The Formal Public Review Process section (including public comments) has been made into a separate subpage to the Shoreline Update page since it continues to grow with weekly Planning Commission meetings. The SMP Formal Review page is online at htto:/ /www.co.iefferson.wa.us/commdevelooment/ShorelineSMPformaIReview.htm . In addition, materials from last week's PC meeting and Monday's briefing to the County Commissioners have been posted at htto:/ /www.co.iefferson.wa.us/commdevelooment/ShorelineSMPformaIReview.htm#Formal Public Review Process MYTH BUSTERS Also, the Peninsula Daily News ran a story yesterday about Monday's BoCC briefing (htto:/ /www.oeninsuladailvnews.com/article/20090224/news/302249989 ) that does a good job of providing information about the project, but begs a few points of clarification: 1. Consultants - We have worked long and hard WITH our consultants and for public involvement. Our lead consultant from ESA Adolfson was present and helped us brief the BoCC on Monday. Involvement of our consultants (ESA Adolfson and Battelle Marine Sciences Laboratory) has been critical to the project. 2. Non-conforming Development - Single family residential non-conforming development can rebuild in same location/configuration after fire/flood damage when damage is less than 75%. as well as those with more than 75% damage. The differences are that other tvoes of non-conforming development (Le. commercial, industrial, etc) must relocate a rebuild when damage is over 75%, unless they get a Shoreline Variance to rebuild to previously existing location/configuration. See page 10-6 of PDSMP Article 10. 3. Natural Shoreline Designation - The 4th 'Myth Buster' was overly generalized in the PDN article. My point was that the Natural shoreline environment designation (SED) is not applied too broadly since it's applied as defined by the purpose statement and designation criteria described in PDSMP Article 4, based on the findings of our Shoreline Inventory scientific review, and as consistent with State requirements (WAC 173-26-211) The other point I made on Monday is that while the existing Natural SED applies to ~10% of shorelines today, and the PDSMP proposes to designate ~41% as Natural, an important difference to note is that the existing SMP orohibits single family residential development along Natural shorelines, while the PDSMP proposes allowing it with a Conditional Use Permit. See page 26 of PDSMP Article 8. We are working on more extensive informational materials (Le. FAQ sheet) and will distribute to this list when ready. ONLINE POLL Finally, this week's Leader online poll is regarding the mining related marine transport facility legislation mentioned in my previous message (HB 1970 & SB 5836).
