ISLAND COUNTY COMMISSIONERS - MINUTES OF MEETING
REGULAR AND SPECIAL
SESSIONS - JULY 23 2001
SPECIAL SESSION
The
Board of Island County Commissioners
met in Special Session on
Monday, July 23, 2001 beginning at 9:00
a.m., prior to the regular session scheduled for 11:30 a.m. The purpose of the special session was to
meet in Executive Session pursuant to RCW 42.30.110 (1) (g) to
evaluate qualifications of applicants
for public employment. Commissioners
Thorn, Shelton and McDowell were present. The Chairman anticipated
that the session would last
until approximately 11:00 a.m.
REGULAR SESSION
The Regular Meeting of the Board of Island
County Commissioners was held on July 23,
beginning at 11:30 a.m. for a Roundtable
with Elected Officials, followed
by other topics at 1:30 p.m. as outlined on the agenda, including
Diking Improvement District #4. The
meeting was held in the Island County Courthouse Annex, Hearing
Room, Coupeville, Wa., with William F.
Thorn, Chairman, and Mike Shelton, Member, and Wm. L. McDowell, Member,
present.
Roundtable
Meeting with Island County Elected Officials
Attendance:
Elected Officials: Tom
Baenen; Greg Banks; Marilee Black; Mike Hawley; Maxine Sauter; Peter Strow
Others: Elaine Marlow
Elected
Officials’ Request for Salary Adjustment
In
follow-up from the June 25, 2001 Roundtable, the Commissioners confirmed their commitment
to a salary increase for Elected Officials.
A resolution will need to be
drafted, and public hearing held, inasmuch as Elected Officials salaries were
established by resolution. The majority Board opinion was that the effective
date would be 1 August. The
Commissioners at this point had differing
opinions on using a specific dollar
amount or percentage, but agreed
it would roughly equal 5% now, and
another like amount considered during
upcoming budget sessions to be effective 1 July 2002 [or if budget allows 1
January 2002]. The Prosecutor was asked to follow through in
drafting a resolution for consideration on the Board’s agenda 6 August if
possible.
Budget
Process
To
respond to questions on the process for
the 2002 budget, the Chair mentioned it was a
bit too late in the cycle to get any innovations in to the system, such
as a two year budget cycle, but that was where he wanted to be heading. Shortly, he would provide to Elected
Officials and Appointed Department Heads a memorandum outlining the budget process and guidelines to
follow. The State Legislature gave
counties the authority to adopt a biennial budget. He really would like to see the County headed towards a six year financial plan.
Commissioner
Shelton pointed out that it would be difficult in this financial setting
dealing with State Legislature for the
County to adopt a biennial budget. He did think it was important for
departments to be thinking along the line of a two year budget, this year’s
budget and planning for the next.
Commissioner
McDowell had a few concerns about a two year budget cycle, but agreed with a
two year plan. Looking at the
history, many funds are very irregular year to year. His concerns focused mainly around unpredictability of revenues year to year, because revenues
do not necessarily go up every year enough to cover everyone’s needs and would
hate to see the Board approve a request for the second year funding only to get
into the second year budget and not be able to fund it. Also, demands change as rapidly as revenues,
and a good example would be unfunded mandates passed down to counties.
Chairman
Thorn was not adverse to make a two year commitment but it would have to be made with the understanding that anything can change. The prudent management judgment would be
make a second year plan and create an experience and build on that
experience. The goal in all of this he thought was so that
the Elected Officials would feel they are
partners in this process with the Board.
Roundtable

Lehman Road Closure Appeal
Lisa
Yost, 1171 Orcas Drive, Camano Island, an attorney with Merrick, Hofstedt & Lindsey, Seattle,
appearing on behalf of the residents of
Cavalero Estates and the
residents of the Country Club area on Camano Island. Over 300 petitioners and
an additional 59 petition signatures turned in today, request that the Board
reconsider its decision to close Lehman Road to residents that live south of
the East Camano Drive construction project.
She received copies of the resolution and meeting minutes used to
substantiate the decision to close the road and after review of those,
determined there was no objective basis to close the public road and therefore
believe the road was closed in violation of state law. RCW 47.48.010 requires establishing
that the road could either be greatly
damaged or a danger to traffic. She contended that nothing in the meeting minutes
June 25 or the resolution which indicates that road is either going to be
greatly damaged or that it is a dangerous condition. The road was used before as a detour route for the first phase of the project. Because of the way the decision was made,
they do not believe the road to be legally closed. State statute 47.48.020
also requires publication of at least three days prior to the closure of
the road. While the
detour route itself was published, the closure of Lehman Road was not
published in the local newspaper. The
closure of Lehman Road to residents south asks residents to bear tremendous
cost; the four miles each way for every trip equals eight mile round trip at .32-1/2 cents a mile using current IRS
code through the life of the 91 day project will cost $270 each resident plus 30 minutes extra, asks the residents
to drive an additional 45 hours during the life of the project.
Numerous
less restrictive alternatives available which appear not to have been
considered. The statute allows
restriction of the road to passenger vehicles, restrict the weight, and the
request today is that the County do that if there is truly a concern about the
road condition, re-define the term local traffic to include those residents who
live immediately south of the project
between that and Monticello. Country Club residents agrees with that
too; the Country Club is actually north of Monticello, and trying to reach a
reasonable compromise.
Chairman
Thorn advised that the Board would take the matter under advisement, and review
the materials submitted and State Statutes cited.
Resolution
#C-101-01/R-45-01 In the Matter of Responding to
Island
County Board of Law Library Trustees
Larry
Kwarsick, Public Works Director, introduced
proposed Resolution #C-101-01/R-45-01 In the Matter of Responding to
Island County Board of Law Library Trustees.
At the Board’s request, Mr. Kwarsick prepared a report and
recommendation, along with proposed resolution,
available
today as a hand-out. The report
reviewed and analyzed standards for
county law libraries; recapped the
history of the county law library design
and activities associated with
the design and construction of the Law and Justice Center.
Chairman
Thorn clarified that contrary to a circular that was being distributed, this
was not public hearing, rather the Board convening to consider the resolution
that has been prepared and proposed. As
a matter of routine, and on advice of counsel, the Board would not take public testimony on this subject.
By
unanimous motion, the Board adopted Resolution #C-101-01/R-45-01 In the Matter
of Responding to Island County Board of Law Library Trustees.

acquire nor allocate resources to the Phase II buildout of the law library room; and
WHEREAS, in order to facilitate the efficient

Commissioners finds that the southernmost approximately 470 square feet of the
