BODY

SUMMARY STATEMENT OR LEGAL NOTICE LANGUAGE:

 

This proposed ordinance would amend Code language recently adopted by the Council related to use and protection of Lake Samish.  Lake Samish property owners, boaters, and recreational users have come together to understand the concerns of each group and identify a compromise which would be mutually agreeable to all parties and have developed this alternative solution supported by a majority of area residents.
