Mission Ridge DEIS – Follow-Up on Comment Acceptance
Following earlier correspondence regarding my DEIS submission and the unclear deadline language on Chelan County’s website, I requested confirmation of whether my comments would ultimately be included in the official record. The exchange below reflects the County’s final response on that question.

Hi Mike,
Thank you for checking back in. To clarify, yes—my comments were submitted shortly after 5:00 p.m. on October 21. At the time, I relied on the County website language stating that comments were accepted “until Oct. 21,” and I did not see any reference to a 5:00 p.m. cutoff.
My question is whether, under those circumstances, my comments will be accepted and included in the DEIS record.
Thank you for the clarification.
Best regards,
David Wood

Hi David. Under those circumstances, I believe they will not be considered part of the record since they were not submitted by the 5 PM deadline which was described in the legal notice.
