PORT TOWNSEND — After 1,035 public comments, hearings and at least 27 hours of deliberations this week, Jefferson County commissioners finished reviewing a proposed shoreline master program, and said they favor a 150-foot standard marine buffer for new homes, as well as a prohibition on marine aquaculture.
“We went with the 150-foot buffer to start with, that will be adjusted lot by lot, permit by permit, as people can justify it,” county Commissioner David Sullivan, D-Cape George and board chairman, said late Thursday afternoon.
