Re: Preliminary Plat - Wiserlane Division #2
BOARD,OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
OF WHATCOM COUNTY, WASHINGTON
R. W. MALLORY, Chairman
STANLEY S. JEFFCOTT, Commissioner
FRANK ROBERTS, Commissioner
A public hearing was held on this date at 2:00 p.m., regarding the adequacy of sanitary
facilities and drainage in connection with the approval or disapproval of the preliminary plat
of Wiserlane Division #2. Testimony was taken from the public, both for and against approval
being granted this Preliminary Plat.
A petition was presented to the Board by Joan Rayborn, signed by residents in the area.
It was pointed out that the drainage ditches had not been properly constructed to satisfactorily
handle the run off from the road and the homes; drainage on the surface is good, however, during
the wet season, water backs up in the front yards.
It was also stated that there are individual wells in the area and more septic tanks in
such a concentrated area would raise the hazard of polluting these wells, as well as the
possibility of polluting Wiser Lake if additional homes are constructed around the lake.
Due to poor visibility at,the entrance of the sub -division, residents expressed great concern
for the safety of the children.
Mr. Dujardin, the developer, stated that he has agreed to repair the drainage problem and
adjust the intersection, but that arrangements had not been finalized. Mr. Dujardin indicated
that two weeks should allow him sufficient time in which to finalize the arrangements.
By unanimous action of the Board, the hearing was continued to Monday, July 31, 1972, at
2:00 p.m., at which time the preliminary plat will again be reviewed.

Feller property and norther easements would be necessary. He stated that Dujardin Construction
Company had agreed to raise the surface of Wiser Lane at the time the paving is done in Division
No. 2, so that the intersection would have positive drainage. The developer further agrees to
!cooperate with the County in grading a "waiting and entrance lane" 130 feet West of the said
!intersection.
The County Engineer: stated that the property owners North of the Feller property should
also give a Release of Damage as some of the owners had voiced their opposition; Mr. Hickey and
Mr. Winterberg having objected orally. Attorney Asmundson stated that under the terms of the
Drainage Easement, Mr. Feller would be liable for damages, not the County, if water drains on the
adjoining property.
Commissioner Mallory read a letter received from Mr. Ten Kley, who expressed concern
regarding the traffic situation in Division No. 1 and 2. He suggested that there be an exit from
the Plat by way of the Beebe Road. The width of the Beebe Road and the existing traffic problems
on the Road were discussed.
Commissioner Roberts stated that all conditions recommended by the Technical Committee have
been met. He would concur with the Technical Committee recommendations, but would not be in fav
of granting variances of less than 15,000 square feet per lot.
Motion was made by Commissioner Jeffcott to approve the Preliminary,Plat of Wiserlane Divis
No. 2 with the proviso that no variances be granted allowing less than 15,000 square feet per
lot and the intersection will be improved by the developer as agreed upon.
The Drainage Easement and Release of Water Damage referred to in the above minutes reads as
follows:
WE, LOUIS FELLER and DENA FELLER, husband and wife, hereby release Whatcom County from any
drainage water damage that might accrue as a result of the improvements contemplated on Wiser Lan(
No. II, from any additional drainage water that might accrue as a result of sub -dividing said
tract and constructing homes thereon, with the possible result that some increase in the flow of
drainage damage waters may result. The undersigned further acknowledge that the natural drainage
from the area occupied by Wiser Lane No. II is across and below described properties of the
undersigned, and they do hereby grant an easement to Dujardin Homes, the developers of Wiser
Lane No. II, for the purpose of permitting any additional drain and storm water drainage resultinc
from said development to be allowed to run across their said property by virtue of the natural
slope and the natural drainage existing, said property over which the drainage easement is grante(
is described as follows:
The Northeast quarter of the Southwest quarter of Section 31, Township 40 North, Range 3
East of W.M., Whatcom County, Washington, except the North half of the North half thereof,
and except the Beebe Road and other tracts heretofore conveyed and which property lies

This being the time fixed for hearing on the formation of a Flood Control Zone District in
the Sumas area, the matter came before the Board at 11 o'clock A.M. Representatives of the
Whatcom County Soil ConservationService, the County Engineer, and a large group of property
owners within the proposed District were present/at the hearing.
Mr. Moser of the Soil ConservationService explained the procedure and purpose of establishin
this Flood Control Zone District. He stated that formation of the District would put the propert'
owners in a position to apply for Federal funds to control flooding of the Sumas River and adjacent
creeks; there is no flood control money available from the State and the County is limited in the
amount they can spend for flood control.
Boone Hardin, a property owner within the proposed District, voiced disapproval of the flood
control work which has been done in the area in the past and questioned Mr. Moser about the plans
for the Flood Control Zone District projects.
Mr. Moser discussed the plan for enlarging the channel of theSumas River and the cost. He
explained that Federal funds may be used to control actual flood water but not drainage of flood
waters. This cost would be paid by the property owner.
A map of the proposed District was exhibited by the County Engineer. Many of the property
owners in attendance spoke in favor of establishing the District. No one voiced opposition to
the formation.
After hearing all evidence submitted by those present, the Board concluded the hearing and
determined'to make a decision on the establishment of the District on Monday, August 21, 1972 at
3 P.M. If the Board finds in favor of establishing the District, the boundaries will be fixed
and an Advisory Committee of five members appointed. The Chairman stated that anyone wishing to
submit more evidence in support of, or opposition to, the establishment of the District may
submit such evidence in writing to the Board before 3 P.M., August 21, 1972.

Bids on tires and asphalt hot and cold mix were reviewed by the Board.

adequate and the County does not have an employee who is familiar with tire quality control,
that no noticeable savings would be realized as a result of the bids, the Board by unanimous
action rejected all bids.

to purchase the mix from a dealer having a plant in close proximity to the job in progress and,
that any savings which might be realized by the Third District would be offset by expense for
additional travel time. By unanimous action, the Board rejected all bids.

tainable extent the amount of money furnished under the terms of this agreement, the Contracting
Party agrees that repayment of an amount equal to the amount of assistance extended under this

Annual Report of the Whatcom County Law Library, for the year 1971, was submitted by
Donald Dorn, Law Librarian.
Communication in answer to the Board of County Commissioners letter of March 6, 1972 to
Department of Social and Health Services regarding donable foods, was received and placed on
file. Said communication reads as follows:
This is in response to your letter regarding the possibility of establishing a Direct Food
Distribution Program in Whatcom County.
Our experience with seven food distribution stations in King, Pierce, and Snohomish Counties
over the past seven months has shown a declining trend in usage of the program. The decline
has been constant, from month to month, through July.
You will recall that the Puget Sound direct distribution stores were opened immediately
following the court restraining order issued against the Department of Agriculture. We were
under extreme pressure to get food into the Puget Sound area in the shortest possible time.
Because of the wide publicity we had little opportunity to evaluate potential location and shop
for the best rental value. Although we were in operation within about two weeks after the
restraining order, we utilized space in Seattle that is roughly twice the needed area and opened
other outlets which simply have not been utilized to capacity. As the economy has improved,
utilization has dropped and we are faced with unusually high costs per transaction. We have,
therefore, found it necessary to seriously consider discontinuing operations in four of the
seven food outlets by October 31. These closures will depend on what alternatives can be found
to increase the utilization of the program, or reduce the cost of providing the service, or both.
Currently,we are exploring in depth the following possibilities:
1. Obtaining other, less costly locations for the outlets.
2. Opening the store for just short periods of time each month.
We have furthermore put into effect an intense Outreach Program, designated to reach low-
income households, inform them of the -'Food Program and encourage eligible housholds to partici-
pate in the Food Program. In order to stimulate total community involvement to establish
Outreach Program goals, public and private agencies and organizations are being used to help
inform their communities of the purpose of benefits of the Food Program and encourage its
utilization by eligible persons.
We fully recognize that, even though this program has been used by relatively few,eligible
households, it is extremely important to those who do use it. We hope to be able to continue to
provide this service in some form for the people who need it.
In light of this -experience, it appears that expansion of the program to Whatcom County at

this time would be unwise. We will continue to watch the employment trends and donable food
usage in the Puget Sound area, however. Should significant changes occur, we will be willing to
discuss the situation further.
Delay in responding to your letter was necessitated by the need to assess and evaluate
operation of the program in King, Pierce, and Snohomish Counties. Thank you kindly for your
patience and if we may be of further assistance to you, please don't hesitate to call upon us.
Sincerely,

LAKE WHATCOM, DENIED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY ) STIPULATION BETWEEN VIRGIL A. COUNTER
COMMISSIONERS.OF.WHATCOM COUNTY ) AND WHATCOM COUNTY
To Whom It May Concern:
Robert W. Mallory, Frank Roberts and Stanley Jeffcott of the Board of County Commissioners
of Whatcom County; and Arthur Osgood, Chairman of the Whatcom County Planning Commission, hereby
submit the following joint statement in support of the action taken by Whatcom County on January
6, 1972, in denying the Shoreline Permit application of Virgil A. Counter.
Circumstances have brought to light several additional factors which lend substantial
31410 RECORD OF COMMISSIONER PROCEEDINGS
OCTOBER TERM THURSDAY THE 21st DAY OF DECEMBER 19�2
support to our action; some of which additional factors are technical matters and accordingly we
have requested the appropriate governmental agencies to submit testimony. We refer specifically
to the sworn statements of the City of Bellingham's Water, Fire, Engineering, and Planning
Departments, and the Bellingham-Whatcom County Department. These statements which unequivocally
support our determination, together with statements against the application by two close neighbor
reinforce our belief that Whatcom County's decision was the appropriate course of action to cam
out the intent of the Shoreline Management Act of 1971 and the County's overall responsibility ti
protect all interests within the community. We submit that the following are substantial reason:
to support the action of Whatcom County in denial of the application:
1. An Inappropriate and Unnecessary Use of the Shoreline
Proposing to construct a dwelling entirely over the water surface of a lake, especially a
navigable lake, is not consistent with a basic policy stated in R.C.W. 90.58.0204 The first.
sentence in Section 2 of the statee reads: "It is the policy of the state to -provide for the
management of the shorelines of the state by planning for and fostering all reasonable and
appropriate uses".
A residential building located over -the -water is not a reasonable and appropriate use of the
shorelines in this instance. A dwelling differs from a dock in that it is not dependent upon
a water surface location in the sense that docks and piers are so dependent. A water -surface
location is necessary to carry out the original purpose of a dock, but a dwelling's purpose does
not require a,water-surface location to enable its occupants to carry on normal home activities.
A dock without a water -surface location would be useless, not so for a residence, it is not
necessarily a water -dependent use. Thus a dock or other structure for a water -dependent use
would be reasonable ,and appropriate, whereas a residence may riot be reasonable or appropriate. A
reasonably sized dock to serve occupants of a dwelling on his waterfront lot is reasonable.
Indeed, we understand that Lot 8 in the Plat of Georgia Point is about 245 feet in depth from the
access road to the line of ordinary high water, and is 100 feet wide throughout its length. This
upland portion of the lot is thus larger than half an acre in area. In addition, the ground fall
about 30 feet in vertical distance,sloping downward from the road to the water line over a
horizontal distance of 245 feet. This is a slope only slightly greater than 10%, or about 1.2
feet of fall in 10 feet of distance. Many people consider this amount of slope superior to
steeper and flattw slopes for reasons of drainage and esthetics.
2. Dwelling on Pilings Would Degrade the Natural Character of Lake Whatcom, A Shoreline of
Statewide Significance.
Despite location of pre-existing homes, bulkheads, docks and boathouses scattered along the
western shores of Lake Whatcom, that shoreline still retains its remarkably natural
characteristics. Viewed from the water, or from a nearby beach, second -growth evergreen trees,
a moderate slope, and a narrow beach are the dominant features. Should dwellings on pilings be
allowed, they will proliferate. Many owners of small lots on this lake, and elsewhere, would
resort to this method, resulting in a substantial detriment to the public right to enjoy the lake
for its valuable landscape quality. Lakeshore residents today do not want the beaches decked
over by, nor views blocked by, many structures on either piling or landfill.
The legislature in R.C.W. 90.58.030 has classified Lake Whatcom and other large lakes as
Shorelines of State-wide Significance, and'has said "the interest of all the people shall be
paramount in the management of (such shorelines)." We believe that to allow additional dwellings
to be constructed over the lake's surface along such shorelines is contrary to the best interests
of Washington State citizens. Not only does a dwelling reduce the overall esthetic value of the
shoreline, but likewise reduces the lake's available surface area. There remains also possible
physical deterioration or utility breakdowns which would cause hazardous or polluting materials
to enter the water.
In developing Master Programs for Shorelines of Statewide Significance, local governments are
directed in the Shoreline Act to "give preference to uses in the following order of Fr eference
which: (1) recognize and protect the state-wide interest over local interest; (2) preserve
the natural character of the shoreline; (3) result in long-term over short-term benefit; (4)
protect the resources and ecology of the shoreline." (the balance 5-7 are not pertinent to the
matter).
(Dwellings on pilings on Lake Whatcom are not consistent with those directives.
In concluding, we desire to make clear that Whatcom County's decision to deny this application
was made only after much discussion and thought. We weighed theimpact on the applicants
relatively large investment and rights as citizen owner along with his proposal's probable and
potential impacts on the community. It is our determination that the detriment to the overall
public good which would occur should this application be approved substantially outweighs.the
private benefit to the applicant.

Re: Shoreline Management Act Exemption
This letter certifies our determination that the work described in your letter and
enclosures addressed to the County Planning Director dated December 21, 1972, is exempt from
the requirement for a permit under the Shoreline Management Act.
The basis for this finding is as follows:
1. A substantial portion of the proposed work is in the nature of maintenance and repair.
2. The remainder of the work involves reinforcing the existing structure so that its
present use can continue more safely.
3. We concur with your description of the situation as an emergency.
Please let us know if we can be of further help.

JANUARY TERM THURSDAY _THE 18th DAY OF JANUARY 1973-
By unanimous action of the Board Mr. Harry Tiemersma, 2864 Tom Road, Everson, Wash. was
appointed Supervisor of Drainage Improvement District No. 25, succeeding Wm. Honcoop, who
resigned.
The following communication was forwarded to Mr. John Berkowitz, Washington State Highway
Commission, regarding Bellingham to South Ferndale Frontage Road FR-11 Line L-29-79:
Dear Sir: CS 3702 SR 5 Bellingham to South Ferndale
Frontage Road FR-11 Line L-28-79 1-5-5 ( )
In our correspondence of March 10, 1972, the County approved deletion of a portion of the
FR-11 Line in consideration of the Port of Bellingham's acquisition of parcels to be served by
the frontage road. On January 16, 1972, Mr. Berkowitz of your office explained the current
status of the above -noted project as related to this frontage road.
It is our understanding the Port of Bellingham is in the process of acquiring the parcels
involved in the frontage road but will be unable to completethe process in time to accommodate
the current schedule for the highway improvement. To satisfy the Federal and State requirements,
the State.must have right of way acquired prior to advertising of the project. It is therefore
proposed to construct the FR-11 Line southerly to HES FR-11 23+50 (Horton Road) and construct
a cul-de-sac at this point. The State has acquired twenty (20) feet parallel and east of the
existing thirty (30) feet of public right of way of Neal Road southerly to FR-11 3+10. This
combination of fifty (50) feet of right of way will serve as legal access to parcel 1-9342.
However, no road will be constructed on this right of way due to the pending action of the
Port of Bellingham.
Since the construction of this project is in the best interests of the County and the State,
the County approves this fifty (50) foot access right of way of the FR-11 Line as an interim
measure to allow this project to be advertised. Upon completion of the Port of Bellingham's
acquisition this portion of the FR-11 Line will cease to exist.
Very truly yours,

and endorse the application being submitted by the City of Bellingham for the purpose of reducing
trafficking of narcotics and dangerous drugs, in Bellingham and,Whatcom County. The primary
emphasis of the program would be to provide "buy money" to narcotics investigators so that they
may use the funds to purchase illegal drugs and, if necessary in special cases, provide funds to
pay informants for information or to make buys. The Whatcom County Commissioners also are pro-
viding $400.00 as Whatcom County's share of the required L.E.A.A. cash match. We hope that you
will find the program acceptable and provide the grant aid necessary for the implementation of
this program.

THE WHATCOM COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION
IN THE MATTER OF RECOMMENDING AMENDMENT OF ) RECORDED MOTION INCORPORATING
THE INTERIM ZONING REGULATIONS TO PROVIDE FOR ) FINDINGS OF FACT AND REASONS
THE KEEPING OF ANIMALS IN THE "S3" SUBURBAN ZONE ) FOR ACTION
WHEREAS, the Interim Zoning Regulations for Whatcom County adopted on July 6, 1972 have
been amended by the adoption of interim zoning maps for the Yew Street Area, as well as by the
concurrent amendment of the interim zoning text to establish the "S3" Suburban zone; and
WHEREAS, the "Yew Street Amendment" referred to above resulted from a citizens.partici-
pation program established in response to a petition from the community, and
WHEREAS, the people of the area have not resolved their differences on the matter of
providing for the keeping of animals, and a public hearing has been held on the proposal:
IT IS THEREFORE MOVED TO ADOPT THE FOLLOWING: -
A. FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The original proposal for keeping animals in the S3 zone was referred by the
Planning Commission to the steering committee for the Yew Street area for further study
because a number of objections were received at the original public hearing on the S3 zone.
2. The revised proposal for kee ping of animals in the S3 zone was considered at a
public hearing held on December 19, 1972. The hearing was properly advertised, but no
testimony was received other than a statement by the Planning Director verifying that
the proposal resulted from further study by the steering committee together with a number
of the objectors to the earlier proposal.
3. The revised proposal is more liberal than the earlier proposal and appears
reasonable and acceptable to both the planning staff and the Planning Commission.
B. REASONS FOR ACTION
1. The proposal warrants favorable action in that it satisfies a need considered to
be worthy of local debate. It has been the subject of considerable local attention and
therefore warrants respectful treatment.
2. There is no evidence of any reason why action should not be taken.
C. RECOMMENDATION TO BOARD
1. The attached exhibit titled "Yew Street Animal Provision" is hereby recommended
for adoption by the Board of County Commissioners as an amendment of the S3 Suburban zone.
2. The attached exhibit shall be identified by the signature of the Chairman and
Secretary indicating the approval of this Commission.

CAUSE NO. T-344
SUPPLEMENTAL ORDER (MAINTENANCE
By order dated February 2, 1972, in the above -entitled cause, the Commission granted the
(petition, and set aside moneys from the Grade Crossing Protective Fund to cover a portion of the
estimated cost of maintaining automatic flashing light signals for one year at the intersection
of Maine Avenue, and tracks of the Burlington Northern Inc., located at, or near railway milepost
111+98, in the SW 1/4 of the NW 1/4 of Section 35, Township 40 N., Range 1 E. W.M., in Custer
(unincorporated), Whatcom County, State of Washington.
Upon notification by the respondent railroad, the Commission inspected the crossing and si
installation on January 23, 1973, and found that these signals conformed with the requirements
set forth in the Commission's initial order of February 2, 1972. The Commission engineer con-
ducted the inspection and certified as of January 23, 1973, that the signals were operating and
that the signal installation contained 16 A.A.R. maintenance units, as those were defined in
Commission General Order of January 21, 1970, in Cause No. T-147.
The Commission General Order in Cause No. T-147 provides that A.A.R. maintenance units shall
be valued at $36 per unit on an annual basis, and that maintenance cost for any part of a year
shall be computed from the first day of the month following the date of inspection and certifi-
cation by the Commission to and including the following June 30th. RCW 81.53.271 provides that
the Grade Crossing Protective Fund may contribute a maximum of 25% of the cost of annual main-
tenance.
Consistent with the foregoing, the Commission finds that the subject signal installation
will qualify for annual maintenance in the amount of $144 (25% of 16 X $36) and because said
signals will be in operation for the partial fiscal year February 1 to June 30, 1973 (5 months),
said signals qualify for maintenance funds in the amount of $60 (5/12ths of $144.00) during the
first year.

RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, an.emergency exists requiring the immediate expenditure of funds for.the compl
of electrical wiring at Lighthouse Marine Park, Point -Roberts, Washington, and
WHEREAS, the facts condituting the emergency are as follows:
The work involves supplying lights to the observation tower and restrooms and supplying

drawings and specifications will add to the total cost of the job.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Board of County Commissioners declares the existence of an emergency,
pursuant to RCW 36,32.270 and further declares that such emergency requires the waiver of the
requirements of RCW 36.32.240 and RCW 36.32.250.

PROCLAMATION ESTABLISHING.WHATCOM COUNTY HUNTINg AND FISHING
,Y THE FOURTH SATURDAY OF EACH SEPTEMBER
Because of the outstanding contributions of American's hunters and fishermen;a to recreation,..
servation and the economy, they are deserving of special recognition.
Since the turn of the century, hunters and anglers have been the leaders in major conservatio
rograms in our cities, counties and states. These sportsmen -conservationists are responsible for
he founding of state fish and game departments in all 50 states. They asked that they, themselve
e required to buy hunting and fishing licenses and that the money collected be used to support
tate conservation agencies. Hunters and fishermen asked for season and bag limits so that every-
ne would have a fair chance to harvest the annual crop of game and fish without damage to the
asic breeding stock of any species. Further, sportsmen's programs have benefited hundreds of non
ame fish and wildlife throughhabitat development.
Hunters and fisherman, unique in all America, asked that their fishing and hunting equipment
e taxed and that the money be used for land acquisition, research and habitat management for'fis
nd wildlife for the enjoyment of all Americans. Through their publications and organizations -
