The three Jefferson County commissioners will hear an update on a proposed draft hearing examiner code when they meet at 9 a.m. Tuesday.
The meeting, which has been postponed from its usual Monday date because of the Labor Day holiday, will be in commissioners’ chambers at the Jefferson County Courthouse, 1820 Jefferson St., Port Townsend.
The Prosecuting Attorney’s Office has drafted a new hearing examiner code to comply with such recent updates as the Nuisance Ordinance and Commercial Shooting Facility law.
Commissioners are asked to approve a hearing date of Sept. 23.
Items on the consent agenda include:
• Approving $125,950 contract for a modular office facility for the county transfer station.
• Accepting a $237,476 grant from the state Department of Archeology and Historic Preservation for rehabilitation of the historic windows on the second and third floors of the Walker and Jefferson street facades of the Jefferson County Courthouse.
• Approving $14,150 for laserfiche records management.
• Approving a $71,382 intra-agency agreement with the state Department of Ecology for costs of solid waste regulation enforcement. In the agreement, Ecology pays 75 percent, or $53,536, and the county pays 25 percent, or $17,845.
• Approve a $12,426 contract with Oasis Well Drilling for decommissioning three wells in Quilcene.

The meeting, which has been postponed from its usual Monday date because of the Labor Day holiday, will be in council chambers at historic City Hall, 540 Water St.
