BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA STAFF REPORT
AGENDA DATE: September 18, 2018
ACTION REQUESTED: Consider the appointment/reappointment of Rory Savage to the
Public Lands Advisory Committee (PLAC) for a 3 year term.
BACKGROUND: The Public Lands Advisory Committee was formed per Resolution
2013-134.
It states that outdoor recreation is a key industry to the economic
well-being of Kittitas County and with public lands constituting
nearly 71% of the total lands area of Kittitas County. Those lands
are integral to the industry of outdoor recreation and the public’s
ability to access and recreate on those lands is of paramount
importance. The Board of County Commissioners desires to work
cooperatively with major public lands managers to ensure
appropriate access, management of wildlife and natural resources
on public lands is consistently available.
On February 4, 2014, members of the PLAC were formally
appointed after the Committee was formed by Resolution 2013-
134. Resolution 2015-086 created “term” limits for the members.
INTERACTION: On August 24, 2018 BoCC Staff was notified that Mr. Savage had
asked to be reappointed back in July, but that communication
somehow didn’t make it to BoCC Staff until August 24, 2018.
RECOMMENDATION: Appoint/Re-Appoint Mr. Savage to the Public Land Use Advisory
Committee for a 3 year term effective immediately and ending on
January 1, 2021.
HANDLING: Deputy Clerk of the Board to notify applicant of their
appointment/reappointment to the Public Lands Advisory
Committee.
