Bill Bishop spoke to Commissioners in regard to road from Chimacum to packing plant.
Mr. Bishop feels l2' road left for packing house has water pipe. (Plastic p~pe left
in the road) Trucks use that road including heavy semi - wishes that road was aband-
oned and a rurn-around made down below.
Lee Mitchell appeared forDr. Rue in regard to Dr. Rue's unnamed plat in Hameltons
Addition (Lot 46). Mr. Mitchell was, George Hun~iDgford moved, O'Meara seconded
approval, to procede with preliminary plat.
A. R. Thompson objected to the building permit ordinance as advertised. He felt
that it was a hold the Federal Government dangles in front of local government to en-
able them to acquire matching funds and gr~nts. He feels it encroaches on his
Constitutional rights and removes his rights of ownership - makes nis ownership rights
into the position of being a_tenant on his own lands, and places government into the
posixion of land owner.

Don Morrison expressed his support of the building permit ordance and the total over-
all development of the area.
A. R. Thompson felt nobody should tell the property owner what to do with their land.
A few will make mistakes, but he felt the professionals weren't perfect and they still
make mistakes. Mr. Thompson felt property rights and human rights should be protect-
ed. He felt thats what the Courts were for, if a mistake was made - sue.
Roy Nordby asked if this would correct past mistates. He was advised no, but it
would eliminate future mistakes of a like nature.
Commissioner Bud O'Meara moved that Building Permit Ordinance 2-69 be accepted!
George Huntingford seconded the motion.
