Planner P. Carr's report to the Council on the City Census was read and noted
for the record. The population of Port Angeles as of April 1, 1975 is 16,246 in
a total of 6,217 housing units. Factors such as the community is growing older,
school enrollment is down 443 children since 1970, basic employment opportunities
have not increased appreciably since wwrr, and a significant processing error in
the 1970 Federal Census contributed to the decline in the actual population count
versus the estimated population of 16,600 on April 1, 1974.

7,. located on the Southeast corner of Lauridsen Boulevard and Peabody Streets,

City a quit claim deed to all properties of whatever kind or description which he
mig~own west or south of the proposed curb line of the new L.r.D., together with
an easement to the City for power poles and water lines as presently located in
the area immediately east of said curb line, in return Muir would request a quit
claim deed from the City to all that portion of vacated Peabody Street and Orcas
Avenue, subject to the easements as above mentioned lying between lots 6 and 7, and
the proposed curb line was read in full. A discussion was held in which Mr. Niichel
informed the Council that subject request is an attempt to resolve the problems
existing in the proposed Peabody Heights L.I.D. area regarding traveled roadways,
platted streets, street vacations and indefinite property lines as specifically
relating to Mr. Muir's situation. The possibility of the Council establishing a
firm policy regarding this problem was thoroughly discussed with the consensus of
opinion being that if the L.I.D. is approved these problems be resolved if possible
on an individual basis. A motion was made by Councilman Haguewood, seconded by
Councilwoman Ross and unanimously carried to approve the City entering into an
