RESOLUTION NO. 2507
A RESOLUTION regarding initiative 164: Payment for enforcement of zoning
regulations.
WHEREAS, The City of Bremerton applies zoning to implement publicly adopted land use
development patterns; and
WHEREAS, The City of Bremerton and the State of Washington use environmental
regulations to protect natural resources which are of public value; and
WHEREAS, The City of Bremerton recognizes that these regulations must be administered
fairly and openly and that these regulations need constant adjustment and monitoring to assure an
effective and efficient delivery; and
WHEREAS, The City of Bremerton believes that initiative 164 would require such an
exorbitant amount of taxation to pay for the implementation of these regulations that the City and
the State will not continue the use of zoning or environmental regulations; and
WHEREAS, The extent of Public Policy change proposed by Initiative 164 requires the
scrutiny of public debate and ballot; now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Bremerton:
That the City of Bremenon does support the placement of initiative 164 on public ballot
as written so that the citizens of Washington State will have a clear decision as to whether or not
to continue the use of zoning and environmental regulations within our communities.
PASSED by the City Council of the City of Bremerton this 5th day of April, 1995.
