! have requested that the city of
Bremerton plant more trees along
major streets'with a suggestion of
obtaining native trees fi*om local.

There are numerous power
poles and NO TREES in existing
boulevards, such as Montgomery

The city of Snohomish, by com-
parison, has recognized that trees

Portland and other "tree cities" have a volunteer coordinator who gets a
neighborhood together and gets commitments for planting and caring for the
trees. A guy down the block could water a tree for a neighbor who doesn't
want to participate. The property-ownership issue is a red herring. If the
city doesn't own the property - and it owns lots of right of way around town
- then you just get permission from the property owner. I can't imagine that
many people would object to a free tree being planted in their yard under
the guidance of a professional. I can hear someone raising issues of
liability, but these things are more fear than a serious obstacle, chris.

NATIVE TREES
The Central Puget Sound region is home' to some of the most magnificent trees found anywhere. Before
development, forests covered ~nuch of the region's land, .and even now trees are a very noticeable part of
the natural lan.dscape. It is easy to take the trees for granted, but they provide in'~aluable resources to the
r)eople, wildlife, and natural ecosystems of our region.
We find out just how important trees are to the local environment when we remove
them. One typical Douglas-fir can absorb 250 gallons of water a day. When the
tree is gone, that water may become a problem as increased runoff. Trees also
improve air-quality by 'filtering pollutants and adding oxygen and mQisture to the
air. One acre of trees can remove about thirteen tons of dust and carbon dioxide
each year. Even a single tree has a big impact. If alt of the needles are added up on
a mature Douglas-fir, there is one acre of leaf surface area that filters and adds
oxygen to the air.
WHY PLANT TREES IN URBAN LANDSCAPES?
· Filter air pollutants and increase oxygen · Slow down and reduce surface mn-off
· Feed and shelter birds and other wildlife · Cool down streams for healthier fish
· Soften noise from traffic and equipment * Add moisture to the air
· Create forest areas for children to explore · Hold soil on steep slopes and streambanks
· Bring shade to hot city streets *' Create a refuge away from urban stresses
Tips for Selecting Trees
· Plant iocal trees for regional character. What seems common here is unusual elsewhere and reflects our
unique natural history and ecosystems.
· Plant native tree species instead of ornamental varieties. Birds and wildlife prefer native trees and can
benefit more from their flowers and seeds.
· Trees that evolved in th'is region are better suited to our climate of wet winters and dry summers and to
our soils that are often rocky, acidic, and low in nutrients.
· Consider the final size of the tree to make sure there is ~learance above and around the tree as it grows.
Often trees are smaller in cultivation but many of our native trees can still get quite tall.
· Consider the water and sun preferences. Some trees can grow in either sun or shade but require more
water when grown in full sun. Plant drought-tolerant trees where they won't get watered by sprinklers.
· Some trees are more susceptible to disease in certain conditions. For example, over-watering can
incre~.se the risk of disease for madronas and dogwoods.
· Make sure the trees were grown from seed or cuttings and not removed from a natural area {uhless they
were legally salvaged). Trees grow back slowly and are a precious part of the natural ecosystem.

Dear Mayor Bozeman,
I am writing to you on behalf of the Bremerton Kitsap Access Television (BKAT) Citizen
Advisory Committee. It has recently come to the committee's attention that two of our
members, Gregg McClellan and Gary Smith, have expired terms. Both gentlemen are
tremendous assets to our advisory committee, with Gregg McClellan now sitting as our
chairman. Both Gregg and Gary are interested in being reappointed for another term on
our committee. The entire committee gives our highest recommendation, and hope that
they will both be reappointed for another term.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter, we look tbrward to positive resolution.
With kind regards,

conduct a public hearing prior to its final decision and action on the proposed Ordinance.

are trying to accomplish here. 1~ agree with Joan that we need to return it to the
Planning Department. The last time we actually worked on this, we had some
suggestions (wording), and I don't see that those suggestions were implemented
because it was unclear the last time. The staff has to help us on this and get it clearer. I
think that if everybody understands the intent and can take the language and apply it if
they are looking at a map and can understand what this could do for our neighborhoods
and infill - they would be a lot more comfortable with it. The intent, again and the
lanaua~e are not meeting.
Commissioner Kosusko stated that he agreed. The zoning code is a technical
document that people in the planning, development and building profession need to be
able to understand. The general public, of course, should also be able to understand it.
Just as with legal documents, sometimes we go to a lawyer if we cannot understand a
legal document. I don't want to be self preserving here, but if you don't understand the
zoning or development codes, maybe you go to Planning staff or an architect or a
builder that works with those thing. I can understand this document because I work in
the field, but there are vague qualities to it that I think need to be looked at. The two
exceptions at the end are mutually exclusive of each other (and should not be used in
the language). In other parts of the zoning code there are pictorial examples of how
something might apply. This is certainly a case where that would be helpful. I would
encourage the department to come up with a couple of examples.
Commissioner Kennedy, stated that, "I think it has to be spelled out that it relates to
the road frontage and not shoreline or back-yards or alley ways."
Commissioner Kosusko stated that this exists in the zoning code - so it applies to
zoning. It does not apply to shoreline, that is a separate code. He further explained that
perhaps the word front-yard should be further modified to be-"clear that you are talking
about zoning front yards and not shoreline front yard. "
Commissioner Cockburn added that if it is city-wide it doesn't always even pertain to
shoreline.
There was a short discussion about whether to continue this item completely (including
public testimony), or return it to the Planning Department. Commissioner Kosusko
decided after this discussion and input from staff to re-opened public testimony and
entertain a motion to continue the item until the next regularly schedule meeting.
A motion was made by Commissioner Moshay to continue this item, with public
hearing to the next regularly scheduled Planning Commission meeting. The motion
was seconded by Comimssioner Wood. Called for a vote: Cockburn: yes; Dingfield:
yes; Kennedy: yes: Moshay. ?'es: Wood: yes; and Kosusko: yes. The motion carded.
4. PL02-0002 - Proposed Zoning Text Amendment. City of Bremerton proposal to

groups to establish auto group identification signs pursuant to an approved signage
master plan.
Commissioner Cockburn excused himself from this item due to a conflict of interest
since he works for an auto dealer.
Laura Freed presented the staff report to the commission. She stated, "I am here to
discuss the proposed amendment to the sign code. Particularly this proposal would
created a provision in the code for automobile dealership groups. A dealership group is
defined as two or more franchises under common ownership. Allow dealerships to put
up an identification sign of the dealership group rather than just one brand of car.
The details are:
1. The total area of a group identification sign will not exceed 50 square feet for
each dealer franchise in the group
2. No group identification sign shall be more than 150 square feet if mounted on a
pole or 250 square feet if mounted on the ground.
3. The square footage of any group identification sign shall be deducted from the
total signage allotment of the parcel where the sign is placed.
4. Group identification signs shall front on an arterial street.
5. All automobile dealerships will be required to submit a master plan for signage
for all dealerships in their group prior to the approval of such a group
identification sign.
Nothing in this particular district should be understood to obviate any other parts of the
sign code.
There was no public comment.
[NOTE: From this poini forward, the tape of the meeting was unintelligible.]
A motion was made by Commissioner Moshay to approve the proposed zoning text
amendment (PL02-0002) adding a provision in the sign code for automobile
dealership identification signs. The motion was seconded by Commissioner
Dingfield. Called for a vote: Cockbum: abstained; Dingfield: yes; Kennedy: yes;
Moshay: yes: Wood: yes; and Kosusko: yes. The motion camed.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
2002 Zoning Text Amendment
STAFF REPORT with FINDINGS & CONCLUSIONS
PROPOSAL: Proposed Zoning Code text amendment to add a new section to
BMC 21.02.330 (Signs) to create an automobile dealership sign
district and to create a provision for automobile dealership
group identification signs pursuant to an approved signage
master plan.
DATE OF REPORT: January 10, 2002
APPLICANT OR PROPONENT (FILE NUMBER): Haselwood Auto Group
500 Union Avenue
Bremerton, WA
CONTACT: Jerry Powers
360-405-6208
LOCATION OF PROPOSAL: This proposal applies to all parcels zoned for automobile dealerships
and related uses in that area generally bordered by Kitsap Way in the
north, State Highway 3 in the east, Harlow Drive/Auto Center
Boulevard/Union Avenue/3rd Street in the west, and the intersection of
State Highways 3 and 304 in the south.
BACKGROUND: Automobile dealers have in the past placed signs to advei'tise their
brand as a mandate of the automobile manufacturer who~e car they sell.
In addition, auto dealers have wanted to place additional signs for
advertising proposes and to direct buyers to their showrooms. This has
resulted in a piecemeal installation process for signage at car dealers.
This presents difficulties for staff in that permitting one more sign
means that the total allotment of signage space already on site must be
reviewed each time there is an application for a new sign. The sign
code limits the number and size of both pole or monuments signs, as
well as building signage. The limit on the number of pole and
monument signs has, in some cases, precluded the placement of a
dealership group sign.
PROPOSED ZONING TEXT AMENDMENT:
Amend BMC 21.02.330, Subsections K and L, by adding a new section that reads as follows:
"(3) Automobile Dealership Sign Provisions.
i. This subsection designates the area bounded by Kitsap Way in the north, State
Highway 3 in the east, Hadow Drive/Auto Center Boulevard/Union Avenue/3ra
Street in the xvest, and the intersection of Stare Highways 3 and 304 in the south as
the Automobile Dealership Sign District.
ii. No regulation in the Automobile Dealership Sign District shall be interpreted to
obviate any of the other provisions of the Bremerton Zoning Ordinance that are
applicable to a given property or proposal.
iii. Automobile dealers in the district listed in (1) above may erect one sign identifying
the dealership group and the brands of autos sold in the group.
a. Two or more franchises under common ownership constitute a dealership
group.
b. The total area of a group identification sign shall not exceed 50 square feet
for each dealer franchise in the group.
c. No group identification sign shall be more than one hundred fifty (150)
square feet if mounted on a pole, or two hundred (200) square feet if
mounted on the ground.
d. The square footage of any group identification sign shall be deducted from
the total signage allotment of the parcel upon which the sign is placed.
e. Group identification signs shall front on an arterial street.
f. All automobile dealers shall be required to submit a signage master plan for
all dealerships in a dealership group prior to the approval of a group
identification sign.
SEPASTATUS:
SEPA revie~v for this proposal is pending.
DECISION CRITERIA:
In order to approve a zoning text amendment, it must be found to be consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan and the amendment must be internally consistent with the balance of the zoning code.
The following findings of fact are pertinent to the subject code amendment:
FINDINGS OF FACT:
1. The City of Bremerton Comprehensive Plan is largely silent on the issue of urban design, and
as such provides no guidance or vision for signage in the community. However, there are
two planning goals that address the need for high quality, attractive signage. Goal #14 -
Community Image calls for "identifiable, livable neighborhoods that provide a variety of
residential opportunities complimented [sic] by recreational, shopping and social support
services" (Planning Goals p. 6). This suggests that proper signage that directs patrons to the
businesses they want and need to visit is a suitable addition to Bremerton's built environment.
Goal #5 - Economic Development encourages economic development that is consistent with
adopted Comprehensive Plans.
2. The proposed text is consistent with the rest of the City of Bremerton Zoning Ordinance.
There is nothing in the proposed text that affects the other provisions of the sign code. This
amendment is designed to provide more flexibility for auto dealership groups while
protecting Bremerton from visual clutter associated with signs that are too big, too bright, and
too many.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The proposed zoning text amendment will allow signage that is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan and the rest of the Zoning Ordinance.
2. The proposed text amendment promotes the public interest and poses no adverse impacts to
the community.
RECOMMENDATION:
Based upon the background, findings of fact, and conclusions articulated above, it is recommended that the
subject zoning text amendment be approved.

BREMERTON PLANNING COMMISSION
FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS
PL01-0011: Proposed Zoning Code Text Amendment to provide the
regulatory measures for the adaptive reuse of public and semi-public
buildings.
FINDINGS:
1. A proposed new Comprehensive Plan policy for adaptive re-use of public
and semi-public buildings expresses the community's interest in extending
the economic life of these buildings.
2. The pending new policy states an appropriate balance among the
community's interests in economic activity, resource conservation, and
neighborhood preservation.
3. The pending policy provides adequate guidance for the regulation of public
and semi-pub, lic ~uildings that are proposed for adaptive re-use in
neighbor, hood settings.
4. The proposed zoning text amendment provides that adaptive re-use of
public and semi-public buildings will be allowed only by special use permit
to insure that new occupancy does not create undue operational impacts on
the surrounding neighborhood.
5. The proposed zoning text amendment limits new uses to those residential
and non-residential uses that are considered to be the most compatible with
residential neighborhoods.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The proposed zoning text amendment will directly implement the pending
new Comprehensive Plan policy to encourage adaptive re-use of public and
semi-public buildings that is compatible with existing neighborhoods.
2. The proposed amendment meets the consistency requirement of the
Growth Management Act.
3. The proposed amendment's reliance on the special use permit process,
including public hearings, is an appropriate method to insure that
community interests in compatible development are satisfied.

own judgment and come up with a decision.
David St. Pierre, Assistant City Attorney indicated for clarification to the public that these are
legislative matters. The fact that they have closed in the past and possible decided that they
needed additional information is allowed with legislative actions as often as they wish. They
could hear this matter every planning commission for the next 10 years if they wish. This is a
legislative matter and not a matter that affects an individual project so by opening the meeting
for additional testimony today they have in fact cured any defects that the same petitioner had
indicated had occurred before. Should they decide to close now, that would be it.
Mr. Coombes noted that any development that occurs on the site regardless of the zone would
be subject to storm water control, erosion control, buffers to adjacent residential zones and those
would all be considered at the time of development.
Open to the Public (Comment_s_ofa__neut_r_a_l. n_at..u_re)- none
Testimony on this item was closed. They will be deliberating on this item on April 10 or 17.
9. PL010010 Regarding the Bremerton School District Comprehensive Plan Policy Text
Amendment Application to amend the land use sections of the comprehensive plan.
Commissioner Dingfield rescued herself from this issue.
Ron Carpenter, Bremerton School District asked if Chairman Kosusko would rescue himself
from this issue due to prior statements regarding this issue that implied his mind was made up.
Chairman Kosusko stated he would rescue himself from this issue.
Commissioner Kennedy took over the meeting - a quorum still exists.
Mr. Coombes showed a copy of the amended text on the overhead projector which reads
"adapting the use of public and semipublic buildings. Promote the reuse of public and semipublic
buildings that are no longer needed to serve their original primary purpose providing that any new
use is consistent with the surrounding planned environment".
Commissioner Boyd asked ifa motion to approve was necessary.
Mr. St. Pierre said that this was just like everything else on the agenda tonight.
Vice Chairman Kennedy stated they were just taking testimony.
Ron Carpenter, Bremerton School District Facilities Director stated this is being submitted by
the city planning staff for the Bremerton School District stated this is needed to accommodate use
of many public and semipublic buildings in the community. The Bremerton School District
would like to work with the community to use its viable buildings when they are done with them.

Open to the Public (Public in Favor of this project) -
Terry Kesner, 3408 Forest Dr. NE, Bremerton indicated that this building is part of the fabric
of Manette. It would be terrible to see it torn down. The building has a great future ahead of it.
The Navy and Bremerton School District have maintained it nicely. It fits into the neighborhood
and the building should be given a second chance. We should keep what we've got and keep this
building.
Open to the Public (Public Opposed to this project) - none
Mr. Coombes clarified that this is not site specific but is city wide.
John Dickinson asked if the schools or other public buildings would be eligible for HUD money
for improvement so that a regional recreational complex could be generated. To him, he thinks
this would be a better utilization of the properties.
Ron Carpenter stated that underneath the existing state laws, the school board cannot just hang
onto surplus property but must sell it to someone. Property cannot be given away to the
citizenship.
Testimony was closed. Deliberation would be scheduled for April 17.
Commissioner Dingfield and Chairman Kosusko returned to the meeting.
10. Regarding the City of Bremerton Park Ave. Zoning Map Amendment Application.
PL01-007 :
Mr. Coombes indicated this is being done to bring the zfning in line with the comprehensive
plan designation. The comprehensive plan designatiOn is MU which is Mixed Use and the area is
the East side of Park. It's one lot deep and there is an alley behind it from the comer of Pacific
between 6th and Park. The Northeast comer of 6th and 11th is already zoned commercial and the
southeast comer of 11th and Park is already zoned commercial as well. This is brining in line the
other areas designated in the comprehensive plan as MU to a mixed use zone.
Open to the Public (Public in Favor of this project) - none
Open to the Public (Public Opposed to this project) - none
Testimony closed. Deliberation will be April l0 or
11. Regarding the Olympic College campus zoning map amendment application. PL00-0047.
Mr. Coombes indicated the comp plan designates this as school, and they want to bring the
zoning in line with that. There are 5-6 parcels between Lincoln and the Chester right of way
which was vacated to the college north of 13a'. There is one additional parcel on the west side of
Lincoln in the middle of the block between 13th and 14th. The comp plan states that that whole
block west of Lincoln would eventually conform in zoning as is proposed tbr these specific sites.

I. Call to the Public (public comments on any item not on tonight's agendai:
Chairman Kosusko described hoxv the public l:earing pot-tion of the meeting would be conducted.
2. Heating:
Chairman Kosusko noted that the first two items are continued items where testimony has been
previously closed.
Mr. Hugo asked that testimony on these two items be reopened. The request will be to set the public
hearing for the next regular meeting and to allow testimony tonight it' there is any present in response to
the advertised notice.
Commissioner Dingfield excused hersett:
Chairman Kosusko indicated that he would stay until they started hearing testimony and will then
excuse himself also.
Mr. Hugo stated that there is a proposal by' the Bremerton School District to sell the Manette School to
another owner for another use. The initial proposal is essentially a change co the comprehensive plan
land use map. This presented difficulties as it had the appearance of being a spot zone but the School
District had been advised by the department staffthat this was the way to go before Mr. Hugo's arrival.
Mr. Hugo advised a proposed policy and zoning code text amendment as another solution which would
allow reuse of public and semipublic buildings. According to Growth Management, there must be a
policy in support of regulatory actions. The last para~aph of the staff report indicates that the 95 Comp
Plan includes no policies to support adaptive reuse. The proposed policy addition is intended to provide
an initial foundation for,the zoning code text amendment to allow adaptive reuse under the conditions
proposed including the requirement for a Special Use Permit pursuant to a public hearing process to
ensure that issues of compatible use and development are addressed. The policy language proposed is to
promote the reuse of public and semipublic buildings that are no longer needed to serve their original
primary,, purpose provided that any new use is consistent with the surrounding planned environment. We
propose to add that to Element E, Land Use under section 3A in the Comp Plan. The policy has
relevance to several ~owth management act goals including goal 1 - urban ~owth, goal 2 - reduce
sprawl, goal 3 - transportation. 4 - housing, 5- economic development, and t.3 - historic preservation.
The proposed zoning code amendment proposes to add a new section to the Bremerton Municipal Code.
21.02315 that limits the range of uses that these buildings could be used for and indicates that the special
permit could only be approved by public hearing and a finding that the building is suitable tbr the
proposed use. A Determination of Non-Significance ~vas issued for this on March 17, 200l. The criteria
t'or revision of comprehensive plan amendments were pointed out - only the first criteria seems to apply
in this instance. This regulation also proposes to meet the consistency rule tbr the zoning amendments.
Chairman Kosusko asked rbr clarification of some of the allowed uses.
Mr. Hugo indicated that the pub{ic could comment on the suggested uses and ~he commissioners could
make suggestions to expand them or narrow [hem as they see fit.
Chairman Kosusko indicated that public testimony' on rite item would be reopened and be sought on
May 15 at the regularly scheduled meeting.
No one ~vas present who wished to give testimony on this item at this time.
Commissioner Kennedy moved that testimony on items 1 and 2 be reopened and be taken on May
15, 2001. Commissioner Boyd seconded the motion. Call tbr vote: Berkowitz: yes; Boyd: yes;
Coburn: yes, Dingfield: excused; Kennedy: yes; Kosusko: yes.
Commissioner Dingfield re-entered the meeting.
3. PL00-061 Loveless Brook Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment and Zoning Map
Amendment Application.
Chairman Kosusko indicated that this item is to change the Comprehensive Plan Map designation from
VG w/th a concurrent zoning map change to GB, General Business, for the eastern 600 feet of the
property into MU Mixed Use with current zoning map change to Mixed Use tbr the remaining Portion of
the property.
Commissioner Moshay entered the meeting at 6:07.
Lee Wyatt, Planning Dept. Senior Planner, indicated the applicant has requested amending the
original application that they had in from General and Highway Commercial to CG with a time current
zoning map amendment to general business for the eastern 600 feet of the property and Mixed Use with
concurrent zoning map change to MX tbr the remaining portion of the property. The project is a little
under 10 acres which is currently low density residential on the back haig the front portion of the
property is general commercial highway. In the original request, there was no verbiage addressing'the
front 600 feet of the property and the applicant's amended request is tbr a concurrent comprehensive
plan map and official zoning map amendment. The proposed comp plan amendment would extend the
G-C classification by 400 feet to approximately 600 feet xvest of Wheaton Wav which would be an
additional 200 feet past the portion that is already designated commercial general highway. The back or'
the property would then be changed from low density residential desig-nation to mixed use. The
concurrent official zoning map amendment would rezone the ~¥ont 600 feet of the property from single
t'amily residential to General Business and like the comprehensive plan amendment, the west portion of
the property would then be rezoned from single thmily residential to mixed use. There is one single
family residence in approximately the middle of the property. It's fairly heavy tbrested around the
perimeter.
Commissioner Boyd asked if this would mean the all of the first 600 feet along Wheaton Way would be
business.
Mr. Wyatt stated that was correct but it would only' apply' to this parcel.
Chairman Kosusko indicated testimony would be limited to 3 minutes each.
William Palmer, Land Use Planning Consultant. representing rl-~e Loveless Brook applicants. Asked the
commissioners to turn their attention to page l i) of the staff report. The conclusion is that the proposed
discovered that other directors have had the same issue on other projects. It's been a standing issue in the
community for some time so this project did not initiate this discussion in the City of Bremerton.
Public Testimony on this item was closed.
Commissioner Kennedy stated she is pleased to see that the staff has brought this issue fopa'ard and they
have done a great job in cleaning this up.
Commissioner Kennedy moved that the commission approve the Planning And Building
Department 2001 text amendment PL01-001? regarding required buffers and yard setbacks.
Commissioner Boyd seconded the motion.
Chairman Kosusko stated he was confident that this is a separate item which has been a problem that
has existed within the code for some while.

4. PL010010 Bremerton School District Comprehensive Plan policy text amendment
application to the land use section of the comprehensive plan to facilitate adaptive reuse of
existing outsource public and semi-public buildings city wide.
Commissioner Dingfield recused herself.
Mr. Hugo indicated the staff had made a full staff report previously, and they have nothing new to add
on the policy proposal. ;
Rod Carpenter, Bremerton School District Facilities Director indicated that this has appeared, before the
council before. There are many public and semipublic buildings in the city that have some life left to
them and this will allow an opportunity' for these buildings to be used in a compatible situation if they are
located in a residential district. This was brought to the forefront because of the Manette school building
which was used by the Navy for many years as an office building and is still a viable building.

Planning Commission meeting May i5, 2001 P:~ge 9 ~f 17
Commissioner Kennedy indicated she was in favor of the amendment as consistent with guidelines of
GMA, this takes existing buildings and put them into reuse which encourages in-fill development in the
existing urban areas without destroying or tearing down something and also allows reuse of a building no
longer suitable for its original purpose.
Chairman Kosusko indicated the items discussed by Commissioner Kennedy were under goals 1 and 2
and goal 3 transportation, measures to promote in-fill development through adaptive reuse and urban
revitalization, housing as well and further goal 5 - economic development -increasing the city's
economic base by attracting in-fill development so over and over the GMA talks about in-fill
development. Also, historic preservation, goal 13.

traffic it might generate and when traffic would primarily occur. He took out things that looked like thev
would generate traffic throughout the dav.
Chairman Kosusko asked about the day care requirement issue which was raised.
Planning Commission meeting May i5. 2001 Page !0 of 17

addressed at the time of public consideration.

Government Center decision for the County. They have to make sure that parking has been
addressed.
Commissioner Dingfield had major concerns about the foot ferry passengers. There was a
lengthy discussion about the walk-on ferry passengers and "kiss and ride" areas. She stated that
we (City of Bremerton) will become a walk-on ferry destination and that our terminal is
unfriendly. The group decided that the best way to address this issue was to modify General
Policy #3 by changing it to read, "Parking implies including both on street and off street facilities
should be managed to emphasis short term use over long term use ensuring an adequate supply
for shoppers, visitors and ferry passenger pick-up and drop off."

PLANNING AND BUILDING DEPARTMENT
2000 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT
ZONING CODE TEXT AMENDMENT
STAFF REPORT
PROPOSALS: Policy to allow adaptive reuse of public and semi-public
buildings.
Zoning Code text amendment to provide the regulatory
measures for adaptive reuse.
DATE OF REPORT: APRIL 23,2001
APPUCANT OR PROPONENT (FILE NUMBERS): Bremerton School Distdct (PL01-0010;
PL01-0011)
CONTACT: Chris Hugo, Director- Planning and Building Department; Phone: 3601478-5243
LOCATION OF PROPOSAL: This proposal will apply to the entire city.
BACXGROUND: Every community has an array of buildings that exist to serve
specialized community functions. Many Of these are public and semi-
public buildings that are located in residential neighborhoods to provide
local access to services and activities - schools, fire stations, libraries,
churches, and park buildings are common to neighborhood settings in
almost every city.
The existence of these facilities is recognized as an inherent part of ~e
neighborhood fabric, but changes in urban growth, the emergence of
new technology, and changes in community needs and expectations can
make these buildings obsolete for their use or no longer viable for
service in their location. In most cases, these public or semi-public
buildings were built to high construction standards with very durable
materials such as bdck, concrete, stone and steel. As such, they
represent a valuable structural resource to adapt to new uses that still
serve community needs, either public or private.
Cities that recognize the value that these buildings represent in terms of
remaining economic life and conservation of construction materials find
ways to give the buildings a new life by allowing uses not otherwise
permitted in those locations. These new uses are limited to activities that
7/
pose minimal environmental and operational impacts on the surrounding
areas. Such adaptive reuses are becoming increasingly popular as a
strategy to support the revitalization of older urban areas.
The 1995 Comprehensive Plan includes no policies to support adaptive
reuse. The proposed policy addition is intended to provide an initial
foundation for the Zoning Code text amendment to allow adaptive reuse
under the conditions proposed, including the requirement for a special
use permit pursuant to a public headng process to insure that issues of
compatible use and development are addressed.
PROPOSED PLAN AMENDMENT: The following new policy is proposed to add
to Element E. Land Use, Section 3.A.:
Promote the reuse of public and semi-public buildings that are no
longer needed to serve their original primary purpose, provided that
any new use is consistent with the surrounding planned environment.
PROPOSED ZONING CODE AMENDMENT:
Proposed new section, BMC 21.02.315- When the need for a certain public or
semi-public building in any zone no longer exists, the building may be converted
to those uses listed in the zone in which it is located, except that when it is,
located in any residential zone, it may be changed by special permit to a use
allowed in Figure 140, PO zone, Sections 1., 2., 3., 4., 6., and the following listed
uses of Section 11: Consultants, Computer assistance and training (but not
repair), Office/Business Assistance Services, and General Offices. The special
permit may only be approved after public heanng and a finding that the existing
building is suitable for the proposed use and that the proposed use is not unduly
detrimental to the surrounding properties. To qualify for the special permit
hearing, the public or semi-public facility must have been constructed for the
stated public or semi-public use and operated as such use for a minimum of five
years.
COMPLIANCE WITH GMA GOALS: The proposed policy has relevance to the following
GMA goals:
Goal 1. Urban Growth; Goal 2. Reduce Sprawl: This proposed policy encourages infill
development in the serviced urban area by allowing reuse of public and semi-public
buildings that no longer are suitable for their odginat purpose.
Goal 3. Transportation: Measures to promote infill development through adaptive reuse
and urban revitalization also help promote efficient transportation systems.
Goal 4. Housing: Adaptive reuse of schools and other public and semi-public buildings
for housing adds to the availability and affordability of housing.
Goal 5. Economic Development: Increasing the city's economic base by attracting infill
development through adaptive reuse adds market opportunity for new economic
enterprise.
Goal 13. Historic Preservation: Adaptive reuse is a cost-effective mechanism to
preserve histodc buildings by providing new economic opportunities for the structures.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION (SEPA): A Determination of Non-Significance was issued
for this non-project action in accordance with WAC 197-11 on March 17, 2001.
DECISION CRITERIA: The Comprehensive Plan specifies the procedures and conditions
under which amendments to the Plan may be approved. Section 2. D. of Plan Element
K. states that 'Each component of a Plan amendment package shall be reviewed and
approved only if it meets the [following] criteria:" (- the five cdteria are listed on page 2.
of Element K. -).
The criteda as presented are pdmanly relevant to map amendments, not policy
amendments - only the first criterion seems to apply to this policy amendment and is
addressed in the discussion of GMA compliance above. However, the published criteda
are the only ones adopted to apply to decisions of this type.
ZONING CONSISTENCY: The approval criteda for amendments to the Zoning Code text
relate to internal consistency. The proposed zoning text amendment is intended to
implement the proposed adaptive reuse policy and maintain regulatory consistency with
the Comprehensive Plan. The amendment must also be found to be consistent with all
other provisions of the Zoning Code.
