1 o causing You any extra grief.
Mr.Fink,I understand that my file is on your d peful y
I recently purchased the 15 acres referred to as Robin Hood Village in Union,WA. I am also
contemplating the acquisition of the adjacent 10 acres referred to as the Union Bay Hot Tub Cabins.
After talking with Casey ConquW the executive director of the Chamber of Commerce I drafted and sent
a letter to Lynda Ring Erickson,Trm Sheldon,&Jaym Kamir. (Attached).
I understand from Kell McAboy that the letter on your desk n ay be asking for me to come in and llay out
ou
our holistic approach to planning which I think is
the vision so that we can work though y great.can see$om my letter to the Commissioners, I am still several weeks away from having a"vision"that I
am willing to commit to.
Since I purchased the initial 15 acres I've just been doing son a minor housekeeping,while I take time to
understand the community and come up with a plan for the best use of the property. But I understand that
my"housekeeping"may have caused your staff some stress and concern. Specifically,the removal of the
Danger Trees. Please understand that these trees were pointe.out to me the first week I purchased the
property by several people as trees that people had been pointing out to the previous owner for years as
being a hazard I hired a reputable contractor, did core sampl m,and you can imagine my shock when a
°`stop work„order was posted in the middle of the project. le contractors left and I had a mess for 3
weeks until I was able to explain the steps that we had taken your staff finally rescinded the"stop
work, order. Ltd
I find myself in a similar situation with the 2 Park Model RV s I recently Purchased
Please understand
my surprise that a permit would be required to put an RV in Mobile Home&RV park that has allowed
RV's for over 50 years without permits. I know V a will dm P o a positive resolution models ids► of3
ways and there is probably more to proceed. (I pictures showing the parkspace
#8 &9 and another picture showing other RV's in the same ace#8	)
1. Permit and place on a space that has historically been used permanent mobile.
2_ County Recognizes them as RV's and place in an RV spade without a permit.
3. I have 100 plus legal lots(40 x 100)and will add another 60 lots with the purchase of the hot tub
cabins and we could permit them onto an individual lot.
My simple request is that you please lift the"stop work" order as we work through these options. I
spent S100,000 getting these RV's here so that I could use them to serve Tourists in the busy season
which is upon us. Letting them sit idle will cause a large economic damage that I will not be able to
recoup.
I'm sure there are even more solutions that you and your can come up with If we have not come to
a win-win solution in 90 days you could simply reinstate a s work order.
I'm traveling this week but would make special arrangonienft to come and meet with you ASAP if it is
required. I apologize for this being our first communication,
