I. SUMMARY A. Application: Request for a zoning reclassification of a 2.51 acre site from Single-Family Two (SF-2) to Single Family Three (SF-3). B. Applicant: Charles Haselwood P.O. Box 870 Bremerton, WA 98310 C. Location: 2500 block of Snyder Avenue, north of the intersection of Snyder Ave. and 25th St. within the NE 1/4 of Sec. 10, T. 24 N., R.1 E. D. Attachments: I. Application II. Adjacent Zoning Map III. Comprehensive Plan Map II. FINDINGS A. Proposal: The applicant is requesting a rezone of a 2.51 acre parcel from SF-2 to SF-3 in order to subdivide into 11 residential lots for construction of 11 single, family structures. Additional applications pending approval of the rezone include preliminary plat and shoreline permits to subdivide the site into 11 residential lots for-construction of il'single family structures. Also, the permits will allow the applicant to construct appurtenant roads and utilities, and reconstruct 1 previously existing pier on existing piling foundation with additional ramp and 300 square feet of float. B. Legal Description: Lots 5 & 6, Houston's First Addition to the town of Charleston, according to Plat recorded in Volume 3 of Plats, page 78, in Kitsap County, Washington. C. Existing Zoning: SF-2 D. ComDrahensive Plan Map Designation: The site is located within an area designated Residential 0 to '7 dwelling units per acre. E. Surrounding Land Uses and Zoning: USe Zoning North: Residential SF-3 South: Residential SF-3 East: Port Washington Narrows -- Nest: Residential SF-3 F. Zoning Ordinance Considerations: The two zoning districts allow the same uses. However, the minimum lot size, density and setbacks would decrease. The following table compares lot requirements of the SF-2 zoning district with those of the SF-3 zoning district: Lot Requirements 8F-2 SF-3 Lot Area per Dwelling Unit 9,600 4,800 sq. ft. Minimum Lot Size 9,600 4,800 sq. ft. Maximum Lot Coverage 35% 40% Minimum Lot Width 60 40 feet Setbacks: Front 25 20 feet Rear 25 15 feet Side 10 5 feet PUD required No No Landscape Plan Required No No Maximum Height 30 30 feet Maximum Area under roof &l,lowable Density: The maximum allowable density for the SF-2 and SF-3 zoning districts is achieved through the PUD process. SF-2 allows up to 9 dwelling units per acre, and SF-3 allows up to 12 dwelling units per acre. The maximum densities for the 2.51 2 acre site are: SF-2 22 dwelling units SF-3 30 dwelling units G. Circulation/Trip Generation= In Kitsap County the average n~mher of trips per household is 7.56 (Puget Sound Trends, Puget Sound Council of Governments, February 1989). If rezoned to SF-3 which allow up to 12 dwelling units per acre, a potential of 227.7 additional vehicle trips could be generated if the property is developed to its highest density. H.

This decision, not to require an Environmental Impact Statement subject certain conditions, was'~appealed to the Planning Commission on March 15, 1994.

CRITERIA FOR APPROVAL 1) zoning designations SF-2 and SF-3 are single family residential zones which-are both allowed under the comprehensive plan designation "Residential" 2b) When the current zoning boundaries were established, our site, for some unknown reason, was made a different zone than surrounding properties. ~ 3) Governing agencies have very stringent requirements pertaining to new construction for the protection of our environment. Our proposal for this site would be subject to all these requirements. 4) Undeveloped waterfront property within the City .of Bremerton is in short supply. The demand for affordable waterfront lots and lots with water access is very high. Granting a rezone would allow us to meet these demands while still providing a compatible project with surrounding properties. 5) Our site is fronted on two sides by improved city streets. Water, sewer, phone and power all available within these streets.
