Countywide Growth Pattern '1'he vision for the future of Kitsap County, as articulat.ed in the Kitsap County Comprehensive Plan (1998), "seeks to rnaintain and enhance the quality of life that rnakes our County a speeial place to live and work..",. envision a future in which our natural systems are protected; the water quality in our lakes, streams and Pugd Sound is enhanced; the village character of some of our smaller towns is preserved; the historical naturc of our eommunitics is respected in order to preserve our heritage for future generations; a divcrsiticd economic base that supports good jobs, contributes to healthy downtowns in our cities and affordable housing choices; and the rmal appearance of our county is perpetuated. I This vision of the future which is shil.re-d by citizens and elected officials includes the f()lIowing elements: a. Livable urban communities and neighborhoods, centers for employment, civic activities, housing: " Attractive, well designed and livable urban cornnmnities, supported hy ef11eienl and high quality services and facilities, and providing a range of housing choices. Jl Healthy cities that arc the region '$ centen; for employment, affordable housing choices, and civic and cultural activities. b, Vital diversified econorny: A vilal diversified economy that provides I ivinglvage jobs !{)!' residents,. supported by adequate land fe)r a range of ernployment uses <lnd that encourages accomplishment of local economic development goals. c. Efficient multi. modal transportation system: Creation of an efficient multi..modal transportation system -- including roads and highways, f~;rries, airports, and opportunities for non"lllotorizecl travel that provides efficient access and mobility for county residents and supports our land use pattern. . d. Natural systems protection: .. Protection and enhancement of the natural environment, including wetlands, streams, wildliG; habitat, water quality and natural resource activities. " Creation of a system of open space, parks and greenbelts that provide opportunities for recreation and that give structure and separation to urban areas. e Rural charaeter outside or Urban Growth Areas: Maintenance of the traditional character, appearance, functions and lifestyles of Kitsap C\mnty's rural communities and areas f. Responsive (}overnmcnt: An efficient and responsive government that works with citizens, governmental entities and Tribes to meet collective needs f~lirly; and that supports education, environmental protection and human services. A key strategy to accomplish this vision is the intention to encourage future urban growth in areas within incorporated cities and in unincorporated areas that are already characterized by urban growth with existing and planned services and facilities. These actions vvill work to strengthen our natural environment and rural charadeI', and are geared to reduce taxpayer costs by focusing the expenditure of public funds, encouraging concentrated development where appropriate, and increasing our choices for housing and jobs." -----_._~._-_.~~~~_._---_._-_...._"..~_._._._----'...-~.,-_.__._.~.._~---_._~--_._---~-~.~--_.~,-,,-.~.-.__.~_.~.,~-,,~-_.._.~._-~_.._-~..._-_.._----- :) Adopted hy Kitsop ('ounty Ordinance 327-2004 November 22, 2004 EXHIBIT A -5 Balancing historical patterns of growth with a preferred vision o1'tl1e future and legal requirements is an on-going challenge.

(See Appendix C for further detail on contents of lJ(lAMA ':;;); 11. Joint planning for specific areas to address land uses, inh'astructure needs, level of service standards as identified in these policies, and other issues as needed. Special districts should be included in the planning process as appropriate. The results of ihe joint planning should be reflected in Connty and City cornpl'chcnsive plans; IIJ.

EXHIBIT A \0 ( 4. Distribution of 20 year population increments, as forecasted by the W A Office of Financial Management: a. The Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council shall coordinate the process for distributing the forecasted population for the period 2005 - 2025 and every five years thereafter, consistent with the requirements ofthe Growth Management Act. Kitsap County shall adopt any revision to the population distribution as part of its next Comprehensive Plan amendment process and the Cities shall base their Comprehensive Plan amendments upon that distribution. The distribution process should consider countywide demographic analysis, the Land Capacity Analysis, and the OFM projections and it shall promote a countywide development pattern targeting over three quarters (76%) 'of new population growth t6 the designated Urban Growth Areas. The County and the Cities recognize that the success of this development pattern requires not only the rigorous support of Kit sap County in the rural areas, but also Cities' comprehensive plans being designed to attract substantial new population growth. c: Population distribution will be reviewed through the KRCCprocess every five years. The review will include an analysis of the Cities' and County's progress in achieving target distributions. If the 76% UGA target mentioned above for new population growth and the overall population targets are met or exceeded, the target for new population will revert to five sixths (83%), as per the revised County-wide Planning Policies adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance #258-01 on August 20, 2001. Otherwise, the target may be reaffirmed or explicitly modified. b. Each jurisdiction with a designated Urban Growth Area shall develop an estimate and/or range of the additional population that it could accommodate and service during the 20 year planning horizon, consistent with its vision for future community character. The estimate shall consider the need for increasing population density within the Urban Growth Areas to promote efficient service delivery, avoid sprawl, and preserve community character. c. The' population estimates andlor ranges shall be provided to the Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council, with a statement of need concerning adjusted Urban Growth Area boundaries. d. The Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council shall compile the jurisdictions' population estimates, including the estimate of additional population capacity for areas outside the Urban Growth Areas, and determine whether adjustments to the overall distribution are required in order to fit within the OFM projected range. e. The Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council, after conducting a public hearing, shall recommend the estimate andlor ranges of20 year population distribution to Kitsap County for adoption as an amendment to the Countywide Planning Policy. ( ..... f. Kitsap County should give substantial weight to the KRCC recommendation in adopting the 20-year population distribution. EXHIBIT A /Oq ( g. Following adoption of the estimates and/or ranges, each jurisdiction should update its comprehensive plan, so as to arrive at a final population target consistent with the estimate and/or within the original range. h. After each jurisdiction has completed its comprehensive plan update, the final adopted target should be compiled and reviewed through the Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council process and the revised population distribution incorporated into the Countywide Planning Policy. A final distribution to Urban Growth Areas versus non-Urban Growth Areas within the range specified above should then be calculated. s. Fully Contained Communities and Master Planned Resorts A Master Plan review process and decision criteria for fully contained communities and master planned resorts should be incorporated in the County's comprehensive plan, must reflect the standards and requirements in the GMA, and in addition must address the following: Under the Growth Management Act(RCW 350), fully contained communities (FCCs) may be. considered, provided that a portion of the twenty-year population forecast is reserved for. and subsequently distributed to the FCC. The GMA requires that Fces provide for a mix of uses that would provide jobs, housing, and. public facilities and services to support a long- term residential population. ( a. Necessary public facilities, including but not limited to parks, schools, and public safety facilities should be provided within or along with the development, consistynt with adopted capital facility and level of service standards; The GMA (Rew 360) also allows the consideration of proposed master planned resorts (MPRs) outside of Urban Growth Areas for shorter-term residential uses. Master planned resorts are described as self-contained, fully integrated planned developments in areas with significant natural amenities. b. Impacts to public infrastructure, nearby communities, adjacent rural areas, environmental resources, and designated resource lands should first be avoided, second minimized, and third mitigated; c. Provisions for review of such dyvelopments through the KRCC process, in addition to other procedural requirements. .
