City, tribe seal a deal on water (Continued from page 1.) McDonald told the commission- ers that from the tribe's perspec- tive, there wasn't enough scien- tific data about how much stream flows would be aitbcted by the drawing down of water from the local aquifer for the use in the re- gional plan. The agreement calls for the city and tribe to begin a process of in- vestigating and periodically updat- ing a scientific analysis of water resources and their relationship to stream flows. IN TURN, the city will support the tribe's request for $300,000 from the Washington State De- partment of Ecology to pay for collecting data about water re- sources. The studies will also be used to help the city in water man- agement planning and help deter- mine where the city should drill a fourth well. "It's a win-win document," Mc- Donald said of the agreement, noting there is no economic effect on the city from it. "I'm trying to think where there's a downside." "This is really a proactive step on our part," added Mayor John Tarrant. "Technical things aside, the big- gest thing of this agreement is co- operation. As Dennis said, it's all good," said Commissioner Dawn Pannell. "THIS IS A landmark thing; it's huge," said City Administra- tor Dave O'Leary. "This is a pretty good deal." A formal signing ceremony of the agreement by city and tribal officials is planned for 9 a.m. on Friday, June 29, at a site yet to be determined. As of last November, the esti- mated cost of the regional plan totaled $42,422,100. The plan is composed of four projects, which include: * Satellite Water Reclamation Plant at a cost of $16,271,100. It County sets stormwater workshop Mason County will conduct a public workshop on draft plans for stormwater management in Allyn and Belfair. This will provide the public with a chance to ask questions and offer feedback. Plans are available to review at the public libraries in Belthir, Hoodsport and Shelton, as well as on the county Web site. The meeting will run from 6 to 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, June 20, at the Port of Allyn, 18560 State Route 3, Allyn. For more information, call Barbara Adkins at 427-9670, Extension 286.

The ordinance also addresses group dwellings, gross acreage and gross area, building height, lot coverage and net acreage. "It's significantly further than it's been in any past years," Carey said. THE CURRENT interim zon- ing code was due to expire on June 30. Over the past several months, the Mason County Department of Community Development has been working with the Allyn Planning Committee to provide revisions to the interim code that best reflect the needs and desires of the Allyn community. County officials invited more than 1,100 residents to a public meeting in May at the Port of Allyn. Beforehand, the county had also sent invitations to ev- ery known address in Allyn and publicly announced this meeting in the local media. The Mason County Planning Advisory Com- mission used feedback from this meeting to develop a final draft of the zoning code.
