SMP Comment Form and Open House Series Throughout October 2007, the SMP project again visited locations around the County to inform and involve interested citizens and stakeholders. The Comment Form and more information are in the SMP Open House Series section below.
Because public involvement in the SMP Update project is of utmost importance, shoreline property owners have been notified by direct mail on several occasions as a courtesy to inform them that the lengthy process was underway and to publicize important project dates/events. Materials are sent via US Postal Service to over 3,000 addresses from the Assessors Office records as determined by a GIS mapping query for parcels in shoreline jurisdiction. When a person owns more than one parcel, duplicates are removed. There is no legal or contract requirement for such landowner notification, rather this public outreach action was made as a good faith effort to maximize public participation.

Community Planning Workshop July 10 The Community Planning Workshop (formerly called the “shoreline charrette”) was held at the Inn at Port Hadlock (310 Hadlock Bay Rd, Port Hadlock) on Thursday, July 10 from 9:00 am to 8:30 pm. The purpose was to gather broad community input and build support for the Preliminary Draft SMP prior to its submittal for Planning Commission and formal public review starting this Fall. While this SMP event was not held as a full charrette, similar concepts and components were incorporated. What is a "charrette" anyway?
