Not sure how you keep up with all your fan mail, but you do a great job of keeping us all informed. Bill -----Original Message----- From: Michelle McConnell [mailto:mmcconnell@co.jefferson.wa.us] Sent: Monday, February 23,20094:55 PM To: bill james Subject: RE: cumulative effects and PC materials Hi Bill, Sorry for the delay in my response - things are moving fast & furious here. Based on what you describe, the road wouldn't be cause to not meet the provision as written but there may be other factors to consider such as applying the Common Line Setback (PDSMP Page 16-18), Buffer Reduction/Averaging (PDSMP Page 6-5), Critical Areas Stewardship Plan (PDSMP Page 6-6), applying setbacks identified by a subdivision plat, and/or the Shoreline Variance (PDSMP Page 9-7). This proposed code revision is written with much more flexibility than the existing code with the intent of accommodating unique situations and still meeting the goals of shoreline protection, water-oriented development and public access.

In our case, our home sits about 30' from the OHWM and our property is about 500' deep, bisected by Old Gardiner Road. If more than 75% destruction it appears that we would be forced to rebuild on the other side of Old Gardiner, which is the only way we could meet the 160' setback. Am I correct? Thanks 1 Bill -----Orig i na I Message----- From: Michelle McConnell [mailto:mmcconnell@co.jefferson.wa.us] Sent: Thursday, February 12, 2009 1:27 PM To: bill james Subject: RE: cumulative effects and PC materials Hi Bill, That rumor seems to have a lot of energy behind it, has generated a lot of angst among property owners... and is false. Please see Section 6 Non-conforming Development of Article 10 that reads: 4. Ifa .non-confort11~l1s;.dev~loPlTIent. is~~as;ed t~..an.~~t.~~~.~~~ir~~l1~~t ~~"eec,ti1:1gs(ilventy.,five.percentfl$~~~ftl1(ilrepl~(il~~~t.,,~~~ of the original development, it may be reconstructed to those configurations existing immediately prior to the time the development was damaged, provided that the applicant makes a good faith effort to apply for the permits necessary to restore the development within six (6) months of the date the damage occurred, and complete the restoration within two (2) years of permit issuance. B. If a non-conforming development is dama ed casualty to an extent e~e~e~ing~e~ of the original development, it must be reconstructed in a location and manner that complies with the Program. A single family residential development shall be able to redevelop in kind if there is no ability to redevelop in a manner that conforms to the Program. [emphasis added] Any legally existing home or other type of structure located closer than the proposed buffer (100' on lakes, 150' on rivers & marine shorelines) would be considered 'non-conforming' if the PDSMP was adopted as proposed. As you can see above, there is a special consideration for single family residential that is not afforded to commercial, industrial and other types of development. We are working to develop more informational materials, but with over 400 public comments it will take some time to prepare a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) document. Hope this helps dispel the myth -let me know if you have more questions, Michelle <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Michelle McConnell, Associate Planner - LRP Lead Shoreline Master Program (SMP) Update Project Manager Direct: 360.379.4484 Web: http://www.co.jefferson.wa.us/commdevelopmentlShorelinePlanning.htm NEW OFFICE HOURS: 9 a - 4:30 p Monday - Thursday; Closed on Friday <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> NOTE: All e-mail sent to this address will be received by the Jefferson County e-mail system and are subject to Public Disclosure under Chapter 42.56 RCW.

The one thing I cannot find is, I am told, a provision that if your residence is currently closer to marine than 160' and your home burns down that you cannot rebuild. Can you help me find something about this? Thanks for your help.
