Smith Subdivision to the Townsite of Port Angeles Dear Mr. DelGuzzi: The City of Port Angeles Public Works Department has received numerous complaints concerning the condition of the sidewalk adjacent to the above-referenced properties. A site review was conducted on January 17th and January 24th and it \Vas noted that both sidewalks are in need of reconstruction for the public convenience and safety. In accordance with RCW 35.69.030, the owner or record of the property is responsible for the maintenance of the side\'lalk adjacent to the property and is liable if the sidewalk area has become unfit or unsafe for purposes of public travel. The City of Port Angeles Public Works Department would like to work with the property owners to replace the entire sections of sidewalk. There are two acceptable methods for replacement or repalr of sidewalks within the City of Port Angeles, one being the property owner hire a private contractor to accomplish the work, and the other being the property owner make arrangements with the City of Port Angeles to accomplish the work and the property owner will be charged for the time and materials by the City. The City of Port Angeles would greatly appreciate your attention to the sidewalk problems and if you have any questions or comments, please call me at 457-0411, extension 122, and I will be happy to assist you.

The act requires every city and town to designate an official newspaper by resolution (Sections 99, 102). The qualifications of an "official newspaper" are set forth in Ch. 65.16 RCW, referenced in those sections. The official newspaper, among other things, must be plblished regularly, at least once a week in the city or town for the preceding six months, in the English language, and must be of general circulation and interest. RCW 65.16.020 also requires that the newspaper '\.. shall be compiled either in whole or in part in an office maintained at the place of publication. The new act amends existing law to require each city and town to publish every ordinance, promptly after its adoption, at least once in the official newspaper (Sections 25, 26, 42, 100, 101). (RCW 35.21.180, 35A.12.140, and 35A.13.180 authorizing the adoption of codes by reference, and RCW 65.16.160 relating" to the publication of ordinance summaries, are apparently not affected by this Act.) The new act amends existing statutes so that various types of required public notices must now be published in the official newspaper, including notices of boundary reduction elections (Section 19), budget no tic es (Sections 27, 43), calls for warrants (Section 20), notices of abandoned LID bonds (Section 31), notices of hearings on codification of ordinances (&ection 21), bid calls for public works bids in code cities under 20,000 population, third class cities, and towns (Section 24), and for "lease and lease back" agreements (Section 28); notices of other proceedings relative- to sidewalk etc. construction (Sections 36-39); LID notices, proceedings, and calls for bonds and warrants (Sections 29, 30,); similar matters relative to condemnation proceedings (Sections 3, 4, 5); and the resolution and notice regarding the lease or sale of utility facilities <Section 40). The law allows publications of certain notices in newspapers having the largest general circulation, such as ootices relating to proposed new charters (Sections 22, 23, 41); and certain matters relating to metropolitan park districts must be published in newspapers "of general circulation" (Sections 33-35). Similar requirements are imposed by the act upon certain actions of counties, port districts, PUDs, sewer districts, water districts, diking and drainage districts, irrigation districts, flood control zones and others.
