COMMUNICATIONS • The following commtunicati.)ns wore presented and acted upon as follmvs: From Don H. McKee - to -wit: April 13, 1963 Dear Councilmen: Aoubt nine months ago my family and I moved to Port Townsend. We like the city and have • been looking for property to buy or a lot on which to build. Just recently we were able to buy a lot adjoining Gise Street in the North Beach area. We were expecially attracted to this specific spot because it offered access to the beach. Now we notice that two property owners are seeking to lease this access, therefore closing it to other citizens in the area. I do not feel that such action would be in the best interest of the citizens of Port Towns- end, nor would it help to attract other new home builders. On the other hand, if this acce is left open it seems likely that it will help the development of a lovely residential area which would be a credit to our city. May I urge you to reject the renuost to lease this le and keep it open to the public. Sincerely, Don H. McKee From YMI Vernon Keehn to -wit: April 12, 1963 Port Townsend, Mayor & City Council. Gentlemen; We of the Port Townsend Flyer's Club, are seeking permission to have a helicopter give ride from the Hudson Point lot Saturday May 25, the Rhodendren parade day. The helicopter is op;rated by a commercialy licensed pilot from Port Angeles. Secondley we are seeking from you and the Police Department, permission to permit some of our cars, marked with airport stickers to pass through the City Police barricade at the end of Water Street to drop off and pick up at harpers shell station for convenience of the pilots which are coming to the fly -in preceding the festival parade. Yours truly, Vernon Keehn Secretary Treasurer
