Joan Smith
Shelton-area resident Joan
Smith died of cancer on Tuesday,
September 4. She was 72.
She resided in the Timberlake
community near
Shelton, and
spent winters in
Arizona where
she was known
as "Golf Nut."
She was pre-
ceded in death by
husband Melvin
Smith in 1979.
Surviving are
sons Jim and
Bob Smith; eight
grandchildren;
brothers Frank Joan
and Richard Smith
Minteer; and
sister Jean McCarthey.
A graveside memorial is set for
2 p.m. on Saturday, September 15,
at Riverton Crest Cemetery, 3400
South 140th, Seattle.
In lieu of flowers, Mrs. Smith
requested donations to Childen's
Hospital and Regional Medical
Center, P.O. Box 5371, Seattle,
98105, or the Salvation Army.
Big project on Hood Canal:

Northwest Watershed Institute,
echoed her concerns.
"The cumulative impacts of this
kind of development in terms of
stormwater runoff can not be ad-
equately mitigated," Bahls said.
"I'm concerned this will add to
the already serious problems in
Hood Canal with water quality
and low oxygen," Bahls said.
Of the property involved, the
county estimates 17 percent would
be impervious surface, 48 percent
would be pervious surface, and 35
percent would be undeveloped.
Brinnon voice
While environmentalists are
concerned about the cumulative
effect such a large project would
have, community activist George
Sickel, who has owned property
in Brinnon since the 1960s and
decided while in college he would
retire there, says he's seen the
area evolve. He believes change is
in order and those environmental
issues people are raising can all be
mitigated.
Sickel says he hopes people
come to meetings with open
minds. He says he thinks the de-
veloper has done an outstanding
job of addressing environmental
issues.
As for the community changing,
his response is simple: "You mean
with druggies and unemployment
and abandoned cars along the road
and properties not being utilized?
I think it will really clean up our
community. Yes, the community
will change, but it will be a posi-
tive one in my opinion."
In addition to tax revenue sup-
porting the schools, the primar-
ily all-volunteer fire department,
which now has a staff of only two,
could perhaps afford to hire a
paramedic, he says.
In previous meetings, local
residents and some fire district
officials have wondered how the
small, volunteer district would
handle the potential increase in
aid calls related to a resort. The
district also does not have a lad-
der truck capable of responding to
multi-story buildings.
The type of jobs a resort would
create would help the youths of
South Jefferson County, Sickel said,
including summer employment.
"I think it's fantastic. I think it
will put Brinnon on the map. I be-
lieve it will provide a host of need-
ed jobs for our community," Sickel
concluded.
What residents conclude likely
will have an impact on whether

Loy intends to make a statement
to the court.
