PORT ANGELES — When the Port of Port Angeles commissioners consider final action Monday on the sale of the 113-acre South Fairchild Industrial Park for $1,050,000, Port Angeles city officials plan to try to talk them out of it.

City Council members and staff worry that the port master plan for William R. Fairchild International Airport, which is expected to be finished in late 2009, could lead to removal of more — or all — of the trees in Lincoln Park and necessitate moving park facilities.

The Port Angeles City Council and the city Parks, Recreation and Beautification Commission each unanimously voted in July to recommend that the port delay the sale of the property until the port’s airport master plan is updated sometime next year.

The council and parks commission both see the 113-acre property as a possible site for relocating the facilities at nearby Lincoln Park, if needed.

City Council member Don Perry said that he, Mayor Gary Braun and city Deputy Director of Recreation Richard Bonine will speak against the sale of the property at the public hearing.

It is scheduled for 10 a.m. — an hour after the regular meeting begins — at the port’s administration building, located at 338 W. First St. in Port Angeles.

John Calhoun, port commission president, said Friday that the sale to a group that wants to develop a sprint boat race course likely will go through unless concrete alternatives for the use of the property are proposed.

Commissioner George Schoenfeldt agreed with Calhoun.

“It is definitely open,” he said.

“We just have to wait and see if someone says something that grabs my attention.”
