Smith Members of the City Council City of Port Townsend 8 Gentlemen: It is with great disappointment that I view the total elimination of the City's participation in the Port Townsend-Jefferson County Civil Defense Program. may I bring to your attention Chapter 2.24 of the City Municipal Code entitled "Civil Defense Administration." This ordinance dated 1963, established the Port Townsend- Jeffièrson County Civil Defense Organization. It also established a special pooled fund administered through the Jefferson County Treasurer entitled the "Jefferson County-Port Townsend Civil Defense Fund." Section 2.24.030 of this same ordinance, directs that the cost and expense of this joint organization shall be born by the City and county on a 50/50 or matching basis. On July 1, 1971, Federal matching funds were made available to local civil defense organization enabling them to receive up to one-half of all costs of personnel and administration. Jefferson County-Port Townsend Civil Defense met the requirements laid out by both Federal and State Civil Defense, and approvel of matching funds was granted. With this approval, a part-time clerk-typist was employed by this office. At the present time, a complete up-dated of office filing procedures, surplus property inventories, and community fallout shelter supply inventories, is nearing completion. An up-dating of the County Emergency Operations Plan is scheduled for early in 1972. I , - We are one of the few areas in the State of Washington that does not have a budget or the support of a full time Director and staff to carry out its Civil Defense responsibilities. Hopefully, the City of Port Townsend will reconsider its position in this matter and again budget monies so that all our citizens will have the security of this needed support and without a serious curtailment of the local civil defense program. /s/ John G. Doubek, Director Jefferson County-Port Townsend Civil Defense No action was taken on the above communication. 8 PREPARATION OF ORDINANCES It was moved by Councilman Hoglund, seconded by Councilman Camfield that the City Attorney be authorized to prepare the necessary ordinances for the 1972 budget.

The Port Townsend Planning Commission, at that time, passed a resolution to express support for a City Park in the Kah Tai Lagoon area, as outlined by Mr. LeRoy Jones to them on November 20, 1971, in his site plan. /s/ Kay Miner, Chairman Port Townsend Planning Commission Mayor Smith indicated that the plan would be presented to the City Council at a later date. COMMITTEE REPORTS Fire and Light Committee Chariman Norwood reported on a request for a mercury-vapor light at 22nd and Kuhn Sts. by J. L. Walterscheidt.

PUBLIC HEARINGS Mayor Smith opened the public hearing on a request for a variance by Robert Sahli and asked the City Clerk to again read the subject for the public hearing: Nov. 1, 1971 Mr. Frank Smith, Mayor City Hall Port Townsend, Wa. 98368 Dear Mayor Smith: I hereby submit a request for a change of zoning property located at the southwest corner of Lawrence of said property being Lots 2,4 &6 (except for the Townsite of the City of Port Townsend, Washington. I would appreciate your consideration in this matter from single residence to multiple dwelling for the & Van Buren (633 ~an Buren.) The legal description west 10 ft. of south 55 of Lot 6) of the Original Sincerely, /s/ Robert F. Sahli As there was no comment from the public the hearing was closed. Mayor Smith opened the Public Hearing on a request for a variance by Lyman M. Ellis and asked the City Clerk to again read the subject for the public hearing: Nov. 1, 1971 Attention: Port Townsend City mayor and Council Members The following described property: Lots 1 to 3, inclusive, the East 50 feet of Lots 4 and 6, all of Lots 7 and *, block 259; and Lots 5, 6, 7 and 8, fulock 260; All in Supplemental Plat of Eisenbeis Addition to the City of Port Townsend, according to plat recorded in Volume 2 of Plats Page 24, in Jefferson County, Washington; EXCEPT the right of way of State Highway No.9, Has been zoned as residental property. This property is on Sims Way coming into town, lecated between Kruse Car Agency and Port Townsend Appliance Store. I have an opportunity to sell part of this property to Mr. Floyd Chesbro, who wants to open a Furniture and Carpet Store. I would like to have this property zoned as Commercial property. Sincerely, /s/ Lyman M. Ellis. Mr. Wallin spoke from the audiance and stated that the Planning Commission's recommendation on this matter was to zone commercial along Sims Way to the City Limits instead of spot zoning. He said that he was in favor of spot zoning instead. There was a question from the audiance asking if this request was considered a variance and not a rezone. Mayor Smith stated that this was a¡ gray area and it was up to the Council to consider how to handle it. As there was no further comment the hearing was closed. OLD BUSINESS The request for a variance by Robert Sahli was brought on the floor by Mayor Smith. City Attorney Abraham said the council is confronted with making findings as set forth in the zoning ordinance and read several parts of Section 6.10 as examples. He stated that rezoning requires an amendment to the ordinance. Since these two requests were for variances the Coucnil then must make findings as set forth by the zoning ordinance to grant them. The Mayor directed the Clerk to read the letter of recommendation sent by the Planning Commission. Dec. 7, 1971 Honorable Mayor City Council Members City of Port Townsend At the regular November meeting of the Port Townsend Planning Commission, a request was read from Robert Sahli for a change of zoning at property located of the corner of Lawrence Street and Van Buren Street, from single family residence to multiple dwelling. The Planning Commission wished to inform the City Council that they did not have sufficient information to make an informed aecision concerning the rezoning request by Robert Sahli. /s/ Kay Miner, Chairman Port Townsend Planning Comm. Mayor Smith stated that this request was for an unfinished structure and that it did constitute a special circumstance. He said the basic principle here is, within the limits of the zoning ordinance is a variance proper to do something in regard to this. Councilman Hoglund stated that in this special circumstance he failed to see the need for discussing anything in the way of rezoning since this is only a certain portion of the zone. He stated this one section does create a specail circumstance where the unfinished structure if finished off would be multifamily. He considered this as'a variance and could not see going into extensive rezoning for the area. He stated that when specail circumstances exist the council can act on it as a variance. City Attorney Abraham stated that the first requi~ement the council must find is that it does 8 I I 8 I 8 I I 8 :35"/ MINUTES OF THE REGULAR SESSTION DECEMBER 7, 1971, CONTINUED 8 not c~nstitute a rezone. Hoglund stated he felt that special circumstances do 3xist and said he saw no need for rezoning this,area and moved that the petition for variance by Robert Sahli be granted. It was seconded by Steve. Motion carried. Mayor Smith brought the Ellis variance ~equest before the council and requested the Clerk to read the recommendation from the Planning Commission. I De c. 7, 1971 Honorable Mayor City Council Members City of Port Townsend I The Port Townsend Planning Commission, at the regular November meeting discussed a request from mr. Lyman M. Ellis, for a rezoning of property he owns on Sims lliay, between Kruse, Car Agency and Port Townsend Appliance Store.

The Planning Commission would suggest to the City.C9unc¡~. t9 d~f~r.acti9n.on the, request by Mr. Ellis, in order to consider the followi':1g recomm~ndat~on: . ", " ,. The trend seems to be more and more property along,Sims,lliay dey~¡oping.intQ Ço~~ercia¡ use rather than Residential use.

He stated time is'of the essence since construction must begin quite soon after receiving the grant. It is necessary to have someone to engineer the job. He would recommend hiring the City Engineer. Roger French, City Engineer, explained what the duties of the project engineer would be. Councilman Hoglund asked if Roger French represented Olympic Peninsula Enterprises, Inc., named in the resolution. French answered that he did. It was pointed out the 7% engineering fee is less than the usually charges 10%. 8 :, il B59' mINUTES OF THE REGULAR SESSION OF DECEmBER 7, 1971, CONTINUED 8 French stated the application sets forth the actual fees and states engineering fees cannot be less than 7%.

He stated we had several locations to choose from - Umatilla St., Cherry St., Gravel pit, golf course, and the present location of the barn.
