Level 3 sex offender registers as transient STAFF REPORT pr@masoncounty,com The Mason County Sheriffs Office announced Friday that level 3 sex offender Arthur Lee Robbins has registered as home- less in Shelton. Robbins, 23, is described as a white male with blond hair and hazel eyes, stands 5 feet, 8 inches tall and weighs 195 pounds. Robbins is required to regis- ter as a sex offender because of multiple sexual assault convic- tions. In August 2003, he plead- ed guilty in Mason County Su- perior Court to first-degree child rape and assault in the fourth degree with sexual motivation. The convictions stem from in- cidents in which Robbins, at 13, raped neighbor children ages 3, 4 and 7. At 14, Robbins also allegedly sexually assaulted a 4-year-old girl, according to the sheriffs office. According to the sheriffs of- rice, Robbins is at a high risk to reoffend and has been clas- sified as a level 3 sex offender. i!;!iiiiiii;iiii~iiiiiii~iii~iii~i~ii;i!iii;iiiiiiiiiiiiiiii~¸ Arthur Lee Robbins Russ Denney, owner Note to Santa: Need your Santa suit cleaned?

"It could also include archaeologi- cal sites and buildings in decay ... there are rem- nants here and there." The seven-member com- mission, which was cre- ated by the Mason County Board of Commissioners in 2005 to identify and en- courage preservation of the county's historic places, has received a grant from preserva- tion board member Rick Calvin, of Grapeview, spearheaded the project, MacSems said. "My friend is an oyster farmer and we went out on his boat one weekend and I was amazed by all the things you can't see from the roadside," Cal- vin said. "Our county has such a great history with maritime resources and transportation -- it's re- ally how our county got built up." The project, which Cal- of historic include col- lating and properties "the°rganizingdata col-°f lected in ear- lier phases. Members of the pres- ervation commission say they hope to document everything from old docks and pilings to oyster hous- es or warehouses from the area's industrial history. "Part of our charter is that we're supposed to do inventories of historic properties," Calvin said. The survey will catalog structures from the "pre- contact era," or before set- put." The survey project will include opportunities for public comments. The historic preserva- tion commission meets at 2 p.m. every second Thurs- day of the month at the Mason County commission chambers at 411 N. Fifth St. in Shelton.
