Two arrested after air, land hunt (Continued from page 1.) gan Sunday when Do Makovi- hey returned home from vacation and checked a shed he owns on ltighway 101 across from Sander- son Field. Inside the shed he found property under a tarp that included an item with the name of a neighbor on it, according to Detective Nick Patterson of the sheriffs office. Patterson said Makoviney waited at the shed until two men showed up in a Subaru. He said the two men fled when they were confronted. Deputies later con- firmed that the Subaru had been stolen. Makoviney gave the investigat- ing officers a description of the men. The next morning deputies T.R. Rankin and Luther Pittman spotted two men who fit the de- scriptions of the wanted men just (rest of the ballfields on Johns Prairie Road. The chase began about 9:30 a.m. when the two men ran away from the deputies and into the woods, according to a written report prepared by Ran- kin. Sergeant Anderson of the state patrol flew over Johns Prairie Road in a trooper plane as depu- ties searched the bushes for Pear- son and Speas. RANKIN SAID the deputies also got an assist from 47-year- old Charles Lacy, a citizen who told them to check behind 90 East Rhododendron Road. There they fbund the two men hiding in a tree, Rankin reported. Speas made a run tbr it, the deputy said. "tie jumped from a limb about 25 feet above ground and ran into the brush. Deputy Pittman began to chase him," Rankin wrote. Speas eluded Pittman but Ran- kin and a trooper found a Ruger Magnum revolver wrapped in a blue sweatshirt at the base of the tree, according to Rankin. The Another condemnation: County goes after right-of-way land For the second time in as many meetings, Mason County commissioners on Tuesday de- cided to initiate condemnation proceedings against a resident to acquire property. This time the project is on Crestview Road and the property owner is Virginia Goldberg, who owns the .02-acre parcel the county has attempted to purchase. "Mrs. Goldberg has rejected any attempt to negotiate for the purchase of the additional right- of-way. In order to complete this project, it is imperative that we acquire this right-of-way," re- ported Rich Geiger, engineering services manager, who was flU- ing in for County Engineer Jerry Hauth. When asked by Commission Chairperson Cindy Olsen if Goldberg had specific concerns about the road projects, Geiger said he did not know. She is willing to speak to anyone about any subject except Crestview Drive which she simply refuses to discuss, he added. "I hate to go about it this way," Commissioner Mary Jo Cady said, noting that condemnation is "an unfortunate thing." The county will pay fair mar- ket value fi)r the property. On September 14 the board ini- tiated condemnation proceed- ings on a portion of property along the South Fork of' the Sko- komish River in the Bambi Farms Road area owned by Guy and Martha Parsons so the coun- ty can access a bank stabiliza- tion project .... Members sought for city planning Shelton city commissioners are looking tbr local citizens interest- ed in serving on the Shelton Plan- ning Advisory Board. There is an opening for a rep- resentative of businesses located in the Mountain View area. Ap- plicants will be asked to serve un- til at least December 31, 2002, when the position is up for re-ap- pointment. The board is a citizens' advi- sory group appointed by the city commission last spring to look at planning-related issues. The board was asked to become famil- iar with the intricacies of Shel- ton's comprehensive plan and the development regulations that guide its policies. This summer, the board has been working on a mobile home park ordinance to be presented later to the city commission. Next month, the board will start exam- ining the subject of developmen- tal impact fees. Those who want to serve on the board can apply by sending a let- ter to the Shelton City Commis- sion, P.O.
