"Tourism is a good thing," he observed. "Over time, education centers could bring a few more people into the county." Not so positive was Randy Neatherlin, who said the original intent of land-use regulation ex- cluded all non-agricultural uses. He was concerned about build- ings and parking areas on farm- land, he said. "How much are we going to change to make this happen? Once you put that build- ing on it, you're not going to grow nothing on there. We have the least (amount of farmlands) in the state. Constructing buildings to save lands is ridiculous; you don't save something to destroy it." KEN VanBUSKIRK said he was concerned that the proposal was not about agriculture but money and ecotourism. He cited earlier conflicts with land use at the Theler Center and salmon center proposals. "My wife and that a broad definition would re- sult in intense use. We are try- ing to direct large gatherings in- side UGAs, and those boundaries aren't chiseled in stone; we can change them. Some agricultural lands are already in UGAs or ad- jacent to them."

"The county has ac- quired property on Oakland Bay, other acquisitions moving along, and they're not all in the north end. We want to be good stewards for the future, good stewards fbr educating our society, not just children. "This is not about any one proj- ect," she said. "This is about using our lands, preserving agricultural use and educating the public."
