On March 26, 2026, the Wahkiakum County Planning Commission unanimously approved the Austin Dock & Variance Shoreline permit with conditions requiring a 1:1 dike slope and that the dock be permanently attached to the dike, reflecting earlier in-person comments.
The Wahkiakum County Planning Commission voted March 26, 2026, to approve the Austin Dock & Variance Shoreline permit with two explicit conditions: the dike slope must be made 1:1 and the dock must be permanently attached to the dike. The minutes record the decision as unanimous.
Public comment preceding the vote included remarks from Tony Aegerter, identified in the minutes as a Diking District #1 Commissioner and Acting Chairman, urging the slope and attachment changes.

The action was recorded as "approved with conditions" in the meeting minutes; the document does not list a permit number or further technical specifications. The commission did not record individual roll-call votes in the minutes. Any follow-up technical review or permit filing requirements were not specified in the minutes.
