To date, you have submitted the application materials and associated fees. However, because the County has not received a Geotechnical Report, the applications remain incomplete. I saw your note that Shawn Williams was going to prepare the Report for you. Shawn is now working with Alkai Consultants, and I contacted him at his new numbers: (360)471-5898 or (360) 613-2407. He advised that he has not completed the Report for your site, but that he would be happy to work with you to complete the Report requirements in the most reasonable/simple manner possible. If you do contract with Shawn or another qualified professional and provide documentation to that effect prior to January 3, 2005, I can reset the hearing to February 14, 2005. If you are then able to have the Report submitted prior to February 7, 2005, I can cancel the hearing altogether. You have done quite a bit to get this issue resolved, and I hate to see this go to hearing over one remaining requirement. The costs associated, in addition to fines imposed, can be very high. Please keep me informed of how you are proceeding. Thanks, Kristin French (360) 427-9670 ext. 593 ,Y•�. � '` ! � 4�h �:� � 'tll Ifni�,.R�• •a F r � # t � ,,, .!•i..
