Hazard Mitigation Assistance Grant No. D23-005 Funding Source Agreement No. FEMA-DR-4539-10-P
Background/Executive Summary:
In November 2020 a Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) application was submitted under the
January 20, 2020 – February 10, 2020 Severe Winter Storm, Flooding, Landslide, and Mudslide Disaster
to State Emergency Management Division to assist with updating Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation
Plan set to expire April 29, 2023. On February 17, 2022 notification was received that the application
was approved and obligated funding for the update of the plan with a Federal share of 75%, Non-Federal
match of 25% (State 12.5% and Local 12.5%).
June 3, 2022 notice was received that the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2022 included an admin
provision that impacted the Federal cost-share percentage. The Federal share was changed to 90% with
State share 5% (maximum) and Local share 10% (minimum). August 2022 the State received the revised
award letter from FEMA with the County project listed for the 90/10 split. Contract was received
September 29, 2022.
Grant award is $85,000 including Federal, State, and Local matches. Mason County’s match is $4,250
for this grant which will be provided through salaries of participating jurisdictions. The remaining
$80,750 will be used to contract with a consultant. The consultant will assist with collecting all the data
needed from our partners, analysis of local and surrounding hazards, creating hazard mapping profiles
using HAZUS and GIS, conduct public meetings, and assist authoring the 2023 Multi-Jurisdictional
Hazard Mitigation Plan for Mason County.
Budget Impact (amount, funding source, budget amendment):
Increase in revenue for Emergency Management ($80,750) that will be equal to the expense for the
consultant. Matching funds will come from in-kind services of the planning partners and Senior Planner’s
salary.

Approval for Mason County to divest itself of the Decker Creek Wetlands Complex and pass the title to
Capitol Land Trust
Background/Executive Summary:
This 500-acre wetland complex was acquired in 2006 for a cost of $1.3M using donated lands and grant
funding, no county money was used. When the property was acquired, the project funders (Salmon Recovery
Funding Board and WA Wildlife and Recreation Program) didn’t allow nonprofits to hold title so Capitol Land
Trust passed title to Mason County. The funder’s rules have since changed to allow nonprofits to hold title.
Capitol Land Trust monitors the property and due to its remoteness and restrictions imposed for salmon
recovery, staff is recommending the County transfer the title to Capitol Land Trust.
Staff has met with Tim Whitehead and there are no concerns.
Budget Impact (amount, funding source, budget amendment):
None

Monitoring Year 2022
Visit date:8/1/2022 Start time:9:37 AM End time:12:22 PM
Monitors: Michael Leigh, Katey Athow
Method: Driving, On foot
1.Was a landowner or property manager/agent present?
No
2.Did the landowner mention plans to sell all or part of the property?
3.What new information (if any) did you learn from the landowner or property managers?
4.What changes have there been to the property since last year's visit?
The roads north of 2 and north of 11 are not being maintained. A new culvert was placed at 4, along with new road gravel. The main Green Diamond
road near the spur road to point 7 and further east was recently widened and graveled, probably for planned timber activities. (However, the only FPA I
could nd for the area was for aerial herbicide spraying.)
5.Other observations regarding the condition of the property's Conservation Values:
The forests in what we could see of the property seemed fairly healthy, with no visible die-offs.
6.What human uses did you observe on the property?
No human uses observed
7.Were there any issues that did not get recorded on the map?
No
8.Recommendations for next year's monitoring visit:
Aerial monitoring by drone probably is the most effective, although it also is valuable to make sure there are no trails leading from the access roads to
the property. Time your visit around the hunting seasons. Do not follow side road that leads to points 5 + 6: it does not lead to the property. You may
need to walk unmaintained sections of road (north of point 4, north of point 11) and/or spend some time cutting back vegetation.

Designation of County Primitive Roads
Background/Executive Summary:
Mason County first designated Primitive Roads in 1982 pursuant to RCW 36.75.300. Roads eligible for
Primitive Road status are gravel or earth surface, volumes of 100 vehicles per day or less, and not part of the
primary road system. Travelers on roads designated as “Primitive” should expect lower levels of maintenance,
fewer warning signs, and/or deviations from standard road design.
As County roads are improved and traffic counts are updated, the list of roads eligible for Primitive Road
designation changes. Public Works staff reviewed the current list (Resolution 2021-063) and with the recently
upgraded road surfaces of California Road and Sunnyside Road, with BST surface (also known as chip seal),
both roads should be removed from the primitive road list.
Public Works recommends the removal of California and Sunnyside Roads, and updating the Primitive Road
list.

Establishing Speed Limit on California Road
Background/Executive Summary:
A portion of California Road, a County-maintained road, was recently upgraded with a BST surface (chip
seal). Before the upgrade, the roadway was gravel beginning from MP 0.104 to MP 5.409. The road was
recently chip sealed, beginning at MP 0.000 to MP 1.300.
The road was classified as a Primitive Road, according to RCW 36.75.300 and signed as Primitive, which does
not require speed limit or warning signs to be posted. With the chip seal improvements on this road, an
engineering and traffic investigation was completed and the County Engineer is recommending the Board

MEMORANDUM
DATE: October 5, 2022
TO: Mike Collins, PE, Deputy Director/County Engineer
Cc: Loretta Swanson, Director of Public Works
FROM: Dave Smith, PE, Engineering and Construction Manager
SUBJECT: Establish Speed Limit on California Road
A portion of California Road was recently converted from a gravel road to a chip seal surface.
California Road is currently classified as a primitive road according to RCW 36.75.300. Statutorily
defined primitive roads, such as this, are not posted with speed limit or warning signs.
With the new portion of chip sealed surface, beginning at MP 0.00 to MP 1.30, and with
additional signing, California Road no longer will qualify as a primitive road by State law, within
the above prescribed mile posts, and therefore, it is appropriate to establish a speed limit.
RECOMMENDATION
California Road is classified as a low volume residential road. A review of California Road was
done after it was chip sealed and Public Works recommends the speed limit be set at 25 mph
beginning at MP 0.00 and ending at MP 1.30. The remainder of California Road will be signed as
Primitive Road. The road will be evaluated for any additional warning signs that are needed.
