RESOLUTION #C-27-02 IN
THE MATTER OF SUPPORT FOR THE SKAGIT COUNTY FLOOD PROTECTION/SALMON
RESTORATION PROJECT
Skagit
County and the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers have completed the first phase of a study to evaluate and
determine the most cost effective method to provide flood protection to the lower Skagit River Delta, with an added goal of the project to improve Salmon habitat. The Board of Skagit County Commissioners adopted the
diversion channel as the preferred
alternative to accomplish both the flood control functions as well as achieving
salmon habitat restoration.
By
unanimous motion, the Board adopted Resolution #C-27-02 supporting the efforts
of Skagit County Flood Protection/Salmon Restoration Project.
BEFORE THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
OF ISLAND COUNTY, WASHINGTON
IN THE MATTER OF SUPPORT FOR THE )
SKAGIT COUNTY FLOOD PROTECTION/ ) RESOLUTION NO. C-27-02
SALMON RESTORATION PROJECT )
_________________________________________)
WHEREAS,
in response to the significant flood events of 1990 and 1995 Skagit County
initiated a study with the Army Corps of Engineers to evaluate the alternatives
to provide flood protection to the lower Skagit River Delta, and
WHEREAS, a major component of the
first phase of this study was the development of a sophisticated riverine
hydraulic and floodplain model to determine the level of protection provided by
the existing levee system and magnitude of damages that would occur in the
event of a 100-year flood, and
WHEREAS, the result of this model
confirmed the existing levee system is inadequate to handle a large flood event, leaving the urban and rural areas
of the Skagit River Delta exposed to the greatest flood disaster potential on
the entire west coast of the United States, and
WHEREAS, a stakeholder group of
Federal and State Resource agencies, Local Diking Districts, City
Representatives and property owners formed as the Skagit River Working Group
and recommended flood control alternatives to the Board of Skagit County
Commissioners, and
WHEREAS, the Skagit River Working
Group utilized information from the study effort to evaluate the various
alternatives and reached consensus that two alternatives known as the Diversion
Channel and Setback Levees should be studied for possible construction, being
in the best interests of the people of Skagit County, and
WHEREAS, Federal and State Resource
Agencies have opposed the Diversion Channel option, focusing on the more
expensive levee setback option and levee overtopping, and have requested
numerous studies on the environmental effects of a wider range of alternatives
than recommended by the Skagit River Working Group, and
WHEREAS, expensive and unfocused
environmental study will cause project delay and ultimately bankrupt project
funding, resulting in zero additional flood protection for the Skagit River
Delta, and
WHEREAS, the Board of Skagit County
Commissioners officially adopted the Diversion Channel as the preferred
alternative in order to focus the limited resources of the County toward
achieving 100-year flood protection for the people of Skagit County while
simultaneously achieving salmon habitat restoration, and
WHEREAS, the City of Oak Harbor and
portions of North Whidbey Island located within Island County, obtain their
water supply from the Anacortes municipal water treatment plant in Skagit
County, which would be flooded in a 40-year event and out of production for as
much as 30-90 days, disrupting economic activity within Island County and
causing serious health risks to City and County residents alike; and
WHEREAS, the primary access off
North Whidbey Island is through Skagit County on State Route 20 and said route
would be closed for water over the roadway for approximately 5 days in the
event of a 100 flood, causing serious disruption to both economic and emergency
service activities;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT
Island County recognizes:
·
the tremendous flood risk associated with the
Skagit River;
·
the real potential for loss of life;
·
the catastrophic consequences should a large
flood event occur;
·
that limited fund sources exists to ensure
adequate environmental evaluation and design, and
·
that a unique opportunity exists to provide both
100-year flood protection for critical public infrastructure, including both
access to Whidbey Island and water supply for North Whidbey and the City of Oak
Harbor, while simultaneously providing new salmon habitat for the benefit of
all citizens, and
·
that project environmental studies are essential
but must be focused on realistic construction options to conserve limited
taxpayer resources.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that Island
County supports the efforts of Skagit County and the Army Corps of Engineers
and further requests the help and support of all elected Federal and State
officials representing Island County to move this project to a timely and
successful completion.
APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 8 day of April, 2002.

Resolution
#C-29-02/R-11-02 Approving
Specifications and Authorizing Call for Bids for Asphalt Concrete Materials
Resolution
#C-29-02/R-11-02 in the matter of
Approving Specifications and Authorizing Call for Bids for Asphalt
Concrete Materials for the period of May 1, 2002 to May 1, 2003 was presented
by Mr. Oakes, who noted two changes since discussion at staff session, one under Quality Assurance calling out Washington State DOT’s standard specification
manual section 5.04.3(8)A with regard
to sampling and testing; and second, inclusion of a requirement of a one
year warranty.
Mr.
Taylor confirmed these amounts by shop were similar to last year; amounts vary
with the number of miles seal-coated per shop; 70% of the overlays on Whidbey
are by contract, a 70/30% ratio
contract v. day labor.
Chairman
Shelton remained unconvinced that the 70/30 ratio on South Whidbey made
sense.
Commissioner
McDowell agreed with that for North Whidbey as well, noting that work accomplished through day labor that
actually could be bid out equates to less work that can be done by day labor
especially in light of the no spray issue which will now require much more
mowing. The Chair did believe the
pre-level and patching should continue to be done by day labor. Ultimately if the county primarily
focuses on pre-level and patching he suggested the need to review
equipment.
Mr.
Oakes at the April 17th
staff session intends to provide the Board with the proposed long term plan for work force as it
relates paving and other issues. This year’s paving program was presented at
a staff session in early March.
By
unanimous motion the Board approved Resolution #C-29-02/R-11-02 in the matter
of Approving Specifications and

HEARING HELD:
Ordinance #C-24-02,

A Public Hearing, as scheduled and advertised, was held
beginning at 10:35 a.m. on Ordinance #C-24-02, PLG-005-02 An Ordinance concerning technical amendments
to the Island County Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Plan Map and the Island
County Zoning Atlas [as introduced on
March 18, 2002 and entered as GMA #7182].
Attendance:
Public: Rick Levine, Whidbey News Times
Staff: Phil Bakke, Director,
Planning & Community Development
Jeff Tate, Assistant Director, Planning & Community Development
Mr.
Tate reviewed the proposed technical corrections as outlined in his Memorandum dated March 15, 2002, included as Exhibit “A” to the ordinance:
Map #34 and #36
– Parcel R13105-252-3300 and R13105-253-1360 corresponding Boundary Line
Adjustment 253/01. Change the zoning
boundary concurrent with the processing of BLA 253/01 so that the shift in
property lines occur simultaneously with the shift in zone boundary. Upon approval of the zoning boundary line
correction and the boundary line adjustment the Assessor’s Office will prepare
an updated map which is currently unavailable.
When the updated map is available the Planning Department will correct
the zoning boundary line change consistent with that which is indicated on the
map included with BLA 253/01 and included with this ordinance as an exhibit.
Map #10 –
Parcel R03225-410-4290 and R03225-463-4640 corresponding Boundary Line
Adjustment 065/02. Change the zoning
boundary concurrent with the processing of BLA 065/02 so that the shift in
property lines occurs simultaneously with the shift in zone boundary. The final map will be prepared consistent
with the above described method.
Map
#677 – Parcel R32801-436-1630 is a 10 acre parcel that the owner has requested
be changed from Rural to Rural Forest because all other surrounding lands in
his ownership are also zoned Rural Forest.
Map
#707, #709 and #716 – Parcels R32813-024-0100, R32814-046-4670 and
R32823-490-0460 change from Rural to Park as a result of Washington State Parks
acquisition of land.
Map
#590 – Parcels R23307-140-2600, R23307-035-0801, R23307-035-0802, R23318-414-0300,
R23318-446-1040, R23318-422-2040 and R23318-402-3360 to be changed from
Commercial Agriculture to Rural Agriculture.
Map #590 is unique in that it depicts the parcel boundaries and zoning
designations of two sections, Range 2, Township 33, Section 7 and Section
18. The zoning for these parcels had
already changed from Commercial Agriculture to Rural Agriculture by Ordinance
C-105-99 adopted on September 27, 1999.
The specific more detailed quarter section maps for the Southwest
quarter section of Section 7 (Map #591) and the Northwest and Northeast quarter
sections of Section 18 (Maps #606 and #607) already accurately depict these
parcels as Rural Agriculture. It was an
oversight to have not changed Map 590 at the same time.
Map
#994 – Parcel R33231-265-0680 should be changed from Rural to Rural
Forest. This is the parcel that is
located in the lower left hand corner of the quarter section map. It is a parcel that is located in both the
Northwest quarter section and the Southwest quarter section. In the Southwest quarter section (Map #992
which is not provided) it is properly designated Rural Forest.
Map
#119 – Parcels R13210-468-3130, R13210-455-3190, R13210-458-3580,
R13210-471-3330, R13210-468-3130 and R13210-462-3270 should be changed from being
depicted as within the city of Oak Harbor to Oak Harbor – Residential
Zone. These parcels are not within the
city boundaries.
Maps
#718, #719, #720, #721, #722, #724, #725, #726 and #729 – There are a number of
technical corrections that are needed to the maps that define and explain the
Langley Urban Growth Area. Some of the
corrections are related to the Joint Planning Area boundary, others are to the
Urban Growth Area boundary and others are to correct the labeling of land use
designations and potential zoning.
Map
#225 – Parcels R13324-493-4260, R13324-492-4920, R13324-427-4260 and
R13324-426-4920 are newly created 10 acre parcels. There is no zoning correction here rather it is an update of a
map that properly indicates newly created parcels.
Map
#172 – Parcel R13233-042-0810 is properly zoned Commercial Agriculture but the
previous map showed this parcel as split zoned Rural Agriculture and Commercial
Agriculture. This amendment corrects
the split zoning. Parcel
R13233-054-1920 which is located immediately adjacent to and south of SR 20 is
currently zoned Commercial Agriculture and should be zoned Rural. It is a .75 acre parcel that is contiguous
to other Commercial Agriculture lands but none that are under the same
ownership. Parcel R13233-058-2450 which
is also located immediately adjacent to and south of the highway is currently
zoned Commercial Agriculture and should be zoned Rural. It is a .21 acre parcel owned by Puget Sound
Energy.
Map
#592 and #594 – Parcel R23307-140-2600 is currently split zoned Rural and Rural
Agriculture. The proposed amendment
properly designates the entire parcel Rural Agriculture.
Maps
#90 and 95 – The current map shows this entire quarter section as lying within
the city limits of Oak Harbor. The
proposed amendment properly corrects two areas that are not within the city
limits to be zoned Oak Harbor – Residential.
Map
285 – Parcels R22902-048-4410 and R22902-019-3780 are corrected to represent a
boundary line adjustment that was previously approved in 1999. There is no zoning change proposed, however,
without the current parcel lines these two parcels would be split zoned.
Map
#941 – There are no zoning changes proposed on this map. The current map indicates that the density
within this area is 3 dwelling units per acre.
The correct density is 1 dwelling unit per acre.
Maps #698 and #701 – Parcel R32810-210-4100 is an 8.85 acre parcel that
should be changed from Rural Forest to Rural Agriculture as it is in the
agricultural tax program and contiguous to other parcels that are in the same
ownership that are in the program.
Parcel R32810-230-4650 is a 37.52 acre parcel that is reclaimed
tidelands which is currently not zoned but should be designated Rural Agriculture. Parcel R32811-206-0460 is a 50.84 acre
parcel that is currently zoned Rural and should be zoned Rural Agriculture
because it is currently being farmed and is within the agricultural tax
program. Parcel R32811-119-1680 is an
8.80 acre parcel that is currently zoned Rural
and should be zoned Rural Agriculture because it is currently being
farmed and is within an agricultural tax program. Parcel R32811-110-0520 is a 12.2 acre parcel that is currently
zoned Rural and should be zoned Rural Agriculture because it is currently being
farmed and is within an agricultural tax program.
Map
#1002 – Parcels R42930-520-0950, R42930-520-0180, R42930-520-0420,
R42930-509-0340 and R42930-500-0190 are proposed to be changed from Rural
Residential to Rural Center. These
parcels are currently used for commercial purposes including the location of
Whidbey Island Bank, Whidbey Paint and Paper and Saucy’s Pizza.
No
one came forward to speak either for or against the proposal at the time the
Chairman called for public comments. By
