' Jeff Tincher, Public Works Director discussed the application stating this is a unique request
because the requestors are asking for the prohibition of Compression Brakes along state route
17 of which the County has no jurisdiction. The State allows the county to go through the
process ofi invoking a noise ordinance in the area and can put up signage. The location, after
working with the Department of Transportation, is along the north end of Soap Lake and
encompasses where the RV Parl<is located.
Jane Chambers who lives along Hwy 17 and in this area, spoke in favor of the ordinance and how
she is affected by the Compression Bral<es.She would also like to see the speed limit reduced in
that area. Commissioner Stevens and Jeff Tincher discussed that the State is in charge of the
speed limits. Discussion ensued.
Jeff Tincher clarified the zone where the Compression Brakes ordinance will affect.
Kristi I<ramer spoke in favor of the ordinance and how they are affected by Compression Brakes,
Commissioner Carter asked Jeff Tincher if the Board ne2ded to add more of the Hwy to this
Ordinance.
Jeff Tincher showed the Commissioners a map of where this proposed ordinance will affect,and
also the members of the audience. Jeff Tincher stated that if the Board wants to extend the
area,that he would recommend extending it to the north end of the Soap Lake City limits,
where the County's jurisdiction begins,to milepost 78.70. Discussion ensued.
Jane Chambers asked about the signage for the Compression Brakes. Commissioner Stevens
clarified that the County will provide signage.
Commissioner Carter moved to close the public comment portion of the hearing. Commissioner
Stevens seconded and the motion passed with 2 Commissioners in attendance. Commissioner
Carter moved to approve the ordinance, not as presented, but to extend the section to the
north end of the City of Soap Lake to milepost 78.70. Commissioner Stevens seconded and the
motion passed with 2 Commissioners in attendance. The hearing adjourned. (Approved,
original proposal only. Ordinance IVo. 15-037-CC)
(In error,the Commissioners approved an extension of road to be included in the Ordinance
that was not advertised to the public. The Commissioners will now need to hold another
public hearing to add the extra section of Hwy to the Compression �rakes Prohibited section
of the Grant County Code. Today,the Board will only approve what was advertised in the
newspaper,which is milepost 78.20 to milepost 78J0.)
