Attorney Ezra Hammer told the commission CUP‑2025‑003 is incomplete, listing missing site‑plan dimensions, a SEPA checklist, sanitation and fire‑safety plans, and an absence of a findings narrative; the commission considered these deficiencies during deliberation.

During public comment on the conditional‑use permit, attorney Ezra Hammer, speaking for Skamania Lodge/Terrapins Owner, LLC, argued the CUP application was incomplete and enumerated specific documentation gaps the commission should require before approval.

Hammer said the site plan “is deficient—no dimensions, need size of things in order to approve,” and listed other missing elements: a SEPA checklist, sanitation or trash‑storage plans, a fire‑safety plan, and a narrative explaining how required findings would be met. Commissioners cited completeness and public‑safety concerns in their deliberations before approving a motion to deny the application.
