5. Open Forum for Citizen Input
Mark Golda feels that substantive mistakes have been made in the minutes of the Planning
Advisory Commission (PAC) and the Commission meeting for the rezone of three properties from
residential to commercial owned by the new Hiawatha, LLC, Mark Kamin. On July 19, 2021 PAC
met concerning recommendations to make to the Commissioners because the change from
residential to commercial will severely impact nearby residents. The minutes from the PAC
meeting do not reflect completely what happened in the meeting. In the August 31, 2021
Commission meeting it was stated that those minutes are relied upon for a decision and that the
recommendations were unanimously approved. The minutes are not an exact reflection or
transcript of what happened in the meeting. Transcripts are made by people certified under oath.
Minutes are made by staff. The PAC unanimously recommended a 30'to 50'setback of a physical
and vegetative barrier on Hiawatha Boulevard and prohibiting access for new Hiawatha via
Hiawatha Blvd. Mark pointed out that the new Hiawatha boundary is the centerline of Hiawatha
Blvd. The setback should be counted from the edge of the road, not the centerline. However, if
you look at the minutes from both Commissions, Kell Rowen stated that it is a 15'setback. This
rezone will adversely impact 100 families with young children and senior citizens who use that
road daily. This is a very serious problem that needs to be fixed before the minutes are approved.
The PAC discussed memorializing these restrictions as a deed restriction and Kell Rowen said this
was possible and that there was a precedent for it. Mr. Kamin, whose property has been
residential, put a 45,000 square foot metal frame building on the parcel. His representation
cannot be relied upon.

To: Mason County Board of County Commissioners
From: Alex Paysse, Environmental Health Manager
Date: November 9'h, 2021
Item: Updates to Mason County Code Chapter 6.76 Onsite Sewage Systems.
See attached draft changes.
Background
RCW 70.05.060 directs the local board of health to enact local rules and regulations as are
necessary in order to preserve, promote, and improve public health and provide for the
enforcement thereof. Chapter 6.76 was implemented in 2009 due to increasing changes in
state codes and requirements surrounding the administration and oversight of onsite sewage
systems. Since 2009, staff has found various gaps between state and local codes. In addition,
time and experience have prompted changes in processing of permits, code enforcement
cases, and certification of contractors. The proposed amendments were compiled by staff and
presented to the Onsite Sewage Advisory Committee on July 131h, 2021. After discussion, the
committee members voted unanimously to approve recommendations to adopt the proposed
code amendments. See timeline below for more information on steps taken and status.
Purpose
The purpose of chapter 6.76 are to assure protection of public health by:
1. Minimizing the public health effects of on-site sewage systems on surface water and
groundwater.
2. Minimizing the potential for public exposure to sewage.
3. Establishing design, installation, and management requirements for on-site sewage
systems to accommodate effective treatment and disposal of sewage on a long-term
basis.
4. Require a known level of treatment for sewage disposed in Mason County.
5. Enhance protection of environmentally sensitive areas within Mason County.
Summary of changes
6.76.040 Definitions.
• Addition of"Pit Toilets" to list of definitions. More information within 6.76.065
6.76.060 Minimum standards and adoption by reference.
• Adds adoption and reference to building permit policies originally approved by Board of
Health in 1996.
• Adds support to health officers ability to restrict permit time of validity or time to install to
one year on failing sewage components. Staff has found providing a 3-year time frame
on repair of failing components sends a confusing message to applicants. Many times
these repair/replacement permits are in response to surfacing sewage situations that
can or are affecting public health. Staff already restrict permit timelines based on state
code allowances, however adding the proposed language provides more clarity to
applicants on current practices.
6.76.065 Adequate sewage disposal required. (added section)
• Clarifies requirements for adequate and approved sewage disposal throughout Mason
County. Addition of this section will assist with code enforcement efforts on varying
situations related to surfacing sewage and water pollution.
• Washington State provides recommended standards and guidance on permitting a Pit
Toilet. Staff has concerns with use of such system due to the amount of surface water,
streams, wetlands, and shellfish harvest area within Mason County. Requirements of
increased soil depth and surface water setbacks already eliminates a big portion of
Mason County. Recommendation is to prohibit use of such system in all of Mason
County.
6.76.070— Operation and maintenance of on-site sewage system
• Reference to use of management service (currently OnlineRME) in reporting inspections
of an Onsite Sewage System.
• Revises requirements around property sales and onsite sewage system maintenance.
Previously code allowed a pumping to satisfy a property sale. Staff have received
complaints from the public, realtors, and septic contractors around pumpers not
satisfying a complete inspection of all septic components. Current proposed
amendments to WAC 246-272A include requiring an inspection from an operations and
maintenance specialist. Lack of a complete inspection has resulted in purchases of
systems with failing components unknown to the purchaser. Requiring an inspection by
an O/M Specialist (inspector) would resolve these concerns. Proposal will simplify
property sale requirements throughout the county, provide more information to buyers,
and align with future probable state code requirements.
• Adds requirements for an up-to-date service inspection prior to additional development
permitting. This requirement has been in place since 1996 when Board of Health
adopted the building permit policies. Adding to code, helps with transparency to
applicants and provides legal backing to disputes or appeals. Overall intent behind
requiring an inspection is to be sure additional development is not being permitted on
failing sewage components.
6.76.080 Certified pumper requirements.
• Removes administrative enforcement on certified pumpers by Contractor Review Board,
replaced by updated text under section 6.76.130. See also changes to 6.76.110
6.76.080 Certified installer requirements.

replaced by updated text under section 6.76.130. See also changes to 6.76.110
6.76.080 Certified operation and maintenance specialist requirements.
• Removes administrative enforcement on certified pumpers by Contractor Review Board,
replaced by updated text under section 6.76.130. See also changes to 6.76.110
6.76.110 Certified contractor review board.
• Removes contractor review board. This board would be used to oversee the
administrative enforcement actions on a certified contractor. However, this board has
been inactive for many years due to lack of work. Most contractor complaints reach
resolution without needs of a dedicated board. Maintaining a board with little work is not
efficient use of staff time or the members serving. Recommend replacing contractor
board with board of health. In the event enforcement actions or hearings are necessary,
BOH can be utilized. See added sections under 6.76.130.
6.76.130 Enforcement.
• Adds supporting language to the condemnation of an establishment for lack of proper
sewage disposal. Staff currently utilizes the existing language, but find it lacks some
clarification. Sheriffs' office and the public has requested more clarifying information on
how this condemnation is being interpreted by health dept. staff. Also adds language on
how the county shall issue and serve these notices to provide uniformity.
• Adds language around suspension and revocation of a certified contractor. Much of this
language is already in place under the specified professional sections, this is a
reorganization of existing requirements and replacement of the contractor review board
with health officer and board of health.
6.76.140 Appeals.
• Small adjustment to language around contractor review board, replaces with board of
health and adds time period to appeal similar to surrounding counties and other Title 6
chapters.
6.76.150 Waivers. (Added section)
• Waiver of regulations are allowed under state code WAC 246-272A. Mason County
regularly approves waivers to state and local code in the onsite sewage program,
however there is no local code that addresses this program function. These waivers can
become important for various development requests. Staff recommends addition of this
section to provide legal backing to current practices and align with other chapters under
Title 6.
