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.

Michael MacSems, county
planner and staff member
assigned to the preserva-

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-

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.
