Resolution #C-89-01/R-35-01 – In the Matter of Temporary Road Closure of Lehman Drive to Through  Traffic on Camano Island

 

Lew Legat presented proposed Resolution #C-89-01/R-35-01 for the  Temporary Road Closure of Lehman Drive to through traffic  on Camano Island, in  Sections 6 & 7, Township 31 North, Range 3 East, W.M.    To orient everyone, he  displayed a diagram showing the previously approved road closure on East Camano Drive [depicted in green].  A detour route was set up to bypass the construction zone, effective June 11th .  There are some  8700 cars a day through this section of East Camano Drive, and the vast majority are taking the  detour route, but there have been  problems with some people attempting to use Lehman Road as an alternate detour route.  Lehman Road is a  narrow road, close to a steep  slope, and is a  residential  area [colored in pink].   There was a slope failure about ten years’ ago.

 

The  Department received a lot of assistance from the Sheriff’s Department  on site and provided  instructions to the motorists .  Formally closing this  portion of Lehman Drive would provide authority for the Sheriff’s Department to issue citations.  The proposal is to close the road at the intersection with East Camano Drive effective July 2nd,  but the residents can continue to use Lehman Drive and go north.  Residents on Lehman Road are 99% northward bound.   The detours adds four miles or 8 – 10 minutes to commute time. 

 

Jan Smith, representing the Sheriff’s Department, observed that Lehman Road was somewhat reminiscent of Madrona Way on Central Whidbey, with  steep slopes, twisting and turning, and noted that the Sheriff drove Lehman Road himself and said it was not appropriate  to be used as a  detour route and should be closed.

 

Commissioner Thorn agreed that this  volume of traffic with the  combined cars and trucks on Lehman Road was  sufficient to potentially cause failure of the road.  It is a question of safety through there of any appreciable volume of traffic. 

 

By unanimous motion, the Board adopted Resolution #C-89-01/R-35-01 for the  Temporary Road Closure of Lehman Drive to through traffic  on Camano Island, in  Sections 6 & 7, Township 31 North, Range 3 East, W.M.
