EYE ON CLALLAM: School health clinic on county agenda

The three Clallam County commissioners will consider endorsing a health clinic at Port Angeles High School when they meet Tuesday.

The meeting will begin at 9 a.m. with a work session in the commissioners’ boardroom (160) at the Clallam County Courthouse, 223 E. Fourth St., Port Angeles.

The Monday work session was moved to Tuesday because of the Memorial Day holiday, when the courthouse will be closed.

Commissioners also will conduct three public hearings. They will hear input on creating a Hazard Communication Program and changing policy for purchasing, bids and contracts, as well as on a vacation of Charles Road, Sampson Road and a portion of Lower Elwha Road as requested by the Lower Elwha Tribe.

Other agenda items include:

• An agreement with the state Department of Transportation to install three permanent bicycle and pedestrian counters on the Olympic Discovery Trail.

• An agreement with Verizon Wireless to place a facility in the right of way at 2613 Kitchen-Dick Road for an initial term of 10 years.

• A call for bids by 10 a.m. June 27 for carpet replacement in the District Court I administration room and courtroom, a re-roofing of the jail and a veterans center ramp installation and repainting project.

• A resolution re-establishing the Clallam Bay-Sekiu Sewer Community Advisory Board.

• Several budget modifications.
