CITY COUNCIL ........................................................................................
SUBJECT: Authorization of a 1 month Committee Meeting Date: December 12, 2007
Interfund Loan from the General COUNCIL MEETING Date: December 19, 2007
Government Capital Improvement Fund to Department: Financial Services
the Harborside Plaza & Commons Fund Presenter: Laura Lyon
Phone: 473-5722
SUMMARY: The Harborside Plaza and Commons capital improvement fund has a total project budget of
$5.5 million with $0.75 million authorized for 2007 and $4.75 million in the 2008 budget. Funding sources
include $5.0 million in grant funds which are immediately available as permitted by the terms of the grant and
$500,000 of City Real Estate Excise Tax (REET) from the General Government Capital Improvement Fund
which will not become available to the project until 2008 when the 2008 budget becomes effective. Expenses
that are eligible for grant reimbursement require submittal of claims after the expenditures have been incurred.
This creates demands for cash payments with a significant delay in reimbursement revenues. In addition, not
all administrative expenditures are eligible for grant reimbursement. For these reasons the City included in the
2008 budget $500,000 ofREET funds to cover cash flow requirements and expenditures that are not
reimbursable under the terms and conditions of the grant funding. However, activity is authorized and
underway in 2007 and the Harborside Plaza and Commons will be in a negative cash position at the end of
December 2007 (due to timing delays in expense reimbursements and administrative costs that are not grant
reimbursement eligible) unless action is taken to provide immediately available funds. It is the
recommendation of the Director of Financial Services that the City Council authorize a 1 month duration
(temporary) interfund loan between the General Government Capital Improvement Fund (REET funds) and the
Harborside Plaza & Commons Fund in an amount not to exceed $150,000 so that 2008 authorized REET funds
may be transferred in advance of January 1, 2008 to cover immediate cash flow requirements occurring in
2007.
ATTACHMENTS:
FISCAL IMP ACTS (Include Budgeted Amount): Funds are currently available in the General Capital
Improvement Fund to cover the interfund loan and $500,000 has been designated and authorized to be
transferred from this fund to the Harborside Plaza & Commons as part of the 2008 budget so this does not
change that expectation but accelerates the availability of the cash into 2007 as needed to cover current cash
flow deficiencies.

From: Laura Lyon, Director of Financial Services
Re: Second Amendment to Reimbursement Agreement with Bank of America
Date: November 21,2007
In 2003, the City Council approved by Ordinance No. 4846 the sale and issuance of
Weekly Rate Demand Revenue Bonds, 2003 in the principal amount of $10,865,000 to
pay part of the costs of constructing and equipping the Kitsap Regional Conference
Center parking garage and public plaza. The payment of principal and interest on the
Bonds is supported by an irrevocable direct-pay letter of credit issued by Bank of
America, N.A. pursuant to a Reimbursement Agreement dated February 1, 2003. The
initial letter of credit expired on February 10, 2006 but was extended to February 10,
2008 by the first amendment to the Reimbursement Agreement which was
approved by City Council by Resolution No. 2986. Per the terms of the Trustee
Agreement with US Bank National, the City must provide an extension or replacement to
the Trustee by January 10, 2007.
Bank of America has provided a non-binding proposal letter dated November 20, 2007
which offers to extend the expiration date of the Letter of Credit to February 10, 2010
and reduces the letter of credit fee accrual rate to 0.350% per annum. After an
evaluation of the current municipal debt market/interest rates, and the soft financial
performance of the Parking System in 2007 - it was determined that pursuing a
refinancing to lock in interest rates was not economically beneficial at this time. The two
year term fits with the City's expectation of when we are likely to be ready to market
traditional (as opposed to variable weekly rate demand bonds) Revenue Bonds to fix the
interest rate. The Conference Center parking garage revenues will need approximately
18 months of history demonstrating an improved revenue stream and net operating
income to be able to effectively market traditional fixed rate Revenue Bonds at a good
price for the City.
The reduction in the letter of credit fee accrual rate from 0.375% to 0.350% provides an
annual reduction of approximately $2,600 from our current letter of credit fee expense.
I am asking the City Council to approve by Resolution the Second Amendment to the
Reimbursement Agreement providing for the extension of the Letter of Credit to
February 10, 2010 and reducing the annual Letter of Credit fee to 0.350% per annum.

SUMMARY: The Kitsap Countywide Planning Policies (CPP's) are a regional framework prepared
by local governments to coordinate jurisdictional growth planning as directed by the State Growth
Management Act. The CPP's were originally adopted and ratified by all Kitsap County local
governments in 1992. In March of this year amendments were brought forward for City Council
consideration, and at that time the Council could not support the ratification and passed Resolution
No. 3026 rejecting the changes. Following this action, the City of Port Orchard Council also rejected
the CPP amendments. With rejection by two municipalities it required that the amendments return to
the Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council (KRCC) for further discussion. The KRCC deliberated on
the changes and moved to remove the amendment that the cities of Bremerton and Port Orchard
disagreed with (specifically the amendment to Policy B4a). These revised amendments were
unanimously recommended by the KRCC Board on October 2, 2007 and adopted by the Kitsap Board
of County Commissioners by Ordinance No. 403-2007 on November 19,2007. City Council
ratification of the amendments is requested to be compliant with the procedures outlined in the CPP's.

Plan (1998), "seeks to maintain and enhance the quality of! i fe that makes our County a special
place to live and work...... envision a fl.!ture in which our natural systems are protected; the water

I contnbutes to healthy downtowns 111 our cIlles and affordable housmg eholces; and the rural
appeaJ'allce of our county is perpetuated.
!
I This vision of the thture ... which is shared by citizens and elected offlcials . includes the
following elements:
a. Livable urban communities and neighborhoods, centers for employment, civic activities,
housing:
Iil Attractive, well designed and livable urban communities, supported by efficient and
f high quality services and facilities, and providing a nmge of housing choices.
II Healthy cities that arc the region's centers for employment. affordable housing ehoices,

d. Natural systems protection:
" Protection and enhancement of the natural environment, including wetlands, streams,

.. Creation of a system of open space, parks and greenbelts that provide opportunities for
recreation and that give structure and separation [0 urban areas.
e. Rural character outside of Urban Growth Areas: Maintenance orthe traditional charadeI',

environmental protection and human services.
^ key strategy to accomplish this vision is the intention to encourage future urban growth in I
areas within incorporated cities and in unincorporated arcas that are already characlerized by
urban growth with existing and planned services and facilities. These actions will work to
strengthen our natural environment and rural character, and are geared to reduce taxpayer costs
by focusing the expenditure of public f'hnds, encouraging concentrated development where

--
* Limiting urban expansion into rural and forested areas,
* Promotion of in-fill or redevelopment of existing urban areas.
* Preservation of open space, critical areas and lands designated for resource protection.
," Accommodation of employment grov..rth in a concclItrated pattern.
* More economical provision & maintenance of ~iree{s, sewer/water lines & other public facilities,
* Promotion of attractive residentialncighborhoods and commercial dislricts which provide a
~1ense of community.

3. 2-. Process and criteria for estabHshin~. expanding, and lld.insting nl'han Growth Areas in Kitsap
Couuty:
a. Urban Growth Areas are areas "within which urban growth shall be encouraged and outside of
which growth can occur only if it is not urban in nature" (ReW 36.70A.11 (0)) except under
specifIC circumstances, as fully contained c0l11lnunities and master planned resorts as authorized by
the Growth Management Act.
b. Unincorporated Urban Growth Areas should be associato;;d with an existing or future cily.
c. All Urban Growth Areas shall be ref1ected in County and respective City comprehensive plans.
d. Sufficient area must be inciuded in the Urban Growth Areas to accommodate the adopted 20-year
population diFltribution as adopted by the Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council and consistent with
W ^ Office of Fimmcial Management projedions.
c. A jurisdiction may define growth tiers within its Urban Growth Area (RC\V 36.70A.ll 0(3)) to f()cus
publie and/or private investment where growth is desired. Utility development and/or expansion may
be phased to support efficient and cost-effective growth and to prioritize investments.
f. The County, City, or interested citizens may initiate an amendment to an existing Urban Growth
Area through the comprehensive plan mnendment process as authorized by the Growth Management
Act.
g. Any jurisdiction seeking to expand its Urban Growth Area shall achieve densities and urban growt!l
patterns consistent with the Growth Management Act, HS4ntei'fJfetecl-hy-flte-G1'OWfu-MtHiHgemeHt
Hem4ftg-s-Beari.:l, and the City's adopted Comprehensive Plan and any inter-local agreement between
the City and the County.
h, If an adopled or proposed 20-.year projected population distribution tRaY require~: the expansion of its
Urban Growth Area, the respective jurisdiction shall conduet planning and analysis, addressing the
following conditions:
i. . Update and confirm the capacity analysis fCll' land within the existing Urban Growth Area for
residential, commercial, and/or industrial lands, which takes into account al! development
approved within the overall UGA since the last UGA expansion. This shall be based upon the
updated Buildable Land Repe.Ft and .fut:life Land Capacity Analyses that follow the guidelines of
RCW 36.70A.215 or other analysis determined appropriate for the parlie-uta!' UGA involved. To
maximize consistency across jurisdictions, each jurisdiction shall use consistent methodology in
calculating capacity.
n. Review the planning and zoning regulations and any incentive programs in place to determine
t:xpected densities g.nd ur.lLqj1 grQJ1'.t1LPJJ!!~!J1'i in the existing UGA consistent with the Growth

County will be responsible t(W data describing the grQwt!l.Qllq{:.!1J2.fJM in th{!. unincorporated
portion of the Urban Cirowth Area, and the City for the incorporated portion.
I. Expansion ofOrhan Growth Areas shall direc.t growth first to areas already characterized by urban
growth that have adequate existing public facility and service capabilities to serve development;
second to areas already characterized by urban growth that will be served adequately by a
combination of both existing public facilities and services and ~Uly additional needed public facilities
and services that are provided; and third to areas that are adjacent to incorporated cities or
estahlished Urban Growth Areas once the available land mceting th(~ first or second priority has been
designated, Areai'; which have existing public facilities or where public facilities can be reasonahly
extended and are not currently at urban densities should be considered first within this category.
J. A jurisdiction, as part of its Comprehensive Plan amendment or Subarea Plan process, that proposes
an expansion of the {)G!\ shall prepare or updatc a comparison of potential areas fClr expansion,

4. Coordinated Growth Manal~<<mlCnt in Urban Growth Arcas:
a. Adopted City and County comprehensive plans shall reflect the intent that all land within
unincorporated Urban Growth Areas will either annex to a city or incorporate within the 20-year
planning horizon, subject to the state annexation procedures.
.. - b. To rnaxill1i7..c the efficient use of urban lunds, subdivisions in Urban Gnl'wth Areas shall be

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 of the 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 to 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.
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 and/or 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 and/or 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
IOq
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.
5. Fully Contained Communities and Master Planned Resorts
A Master Plan review process Under the Growth Management Act(RCW 350),
and decision criteria for fully
contained communities and fully contained communities (FCCs) may be.
master planned resorts should considered, provided that a portion of the

requirements in the GMA, and uses that would provide jobs, housing, and
in addition must address the public facilities and services to support a long-

Centers are intended to be compact. and centralized working, shopping and/or activity areas linked to
other Centers by transit. Centers and their boundaries are intended to be locally determined by the
- County and the Cities where a community-wide fuca! point can be provided,sigrlificant population
" and/or employment growth can be located. and the increased use oftnmsit, walking and bicycling can
be supported. Designatt~d Centers arc intended to define the pattem of future residential and

Centers are applicable: ------_.- -~-_.-- ..-- - - --..- - ---. .-~-~ .._--"---..__._""-~*..-
a. Regional Centers of Growth:
1. Metropolitan Center: Bremerlon including the Bremelion Naval complex.
"Metropolitan Centers function as anchors within the region for a high density mix of
business, residential, public, cultural and recrealional uses, and day and night activity.
They are characterized hy their historic role as the centra! business districts ofthe major
cities within the central Puget Sound region, providing services !()r and easily
accessible to a population well beyond their city limits. Metro Centers may also serve
national or international roles." (Vision 2020)
Il. Urban Center: Silverdale Urban Core. In Kitsap County, Urban Centers are areas with
the comprehensive planning to support a wide range of commercial, housing, and
cultural choices. All areas of the Urban Center arc servic~d by transit throughout the
day and much of the area is within walking or bicycling distance. Significant at in-fill
opportunities exist with the highest residential, commercial, and employment densities
expected.
b. Regional Manufacturing/Industrial Centers: South Kitsap Industrial Area. "Regional
Manufacturing/Industrial Centers are major, existing regional employmenl areas of
inlensive, concentra.ted manuf:'lcturing and industria! land uses which cannot be easily
mixed at higher densitie8 wilh other uses. To preserve land at these centers for
manufacturing, industry and rdatcd uses, large retail uses or non-related offices are
discouraged. Provision of adequate public facilities and services, induding good access to
the region's transportation system, is very important to the success of
manufacturing/industrial centers." (Vision 2(20)
3. The following are other types of (~entc..s within Kitsap County:
a. Town or City Centers are llsualiy the existing downtown core of a city or Urban Growth

b. Mixed Use Centers are a generic eategory that can be described in terms of neighborhoods
or districts within a qitv or Ur.f1.an Qm!YJ.h4rea. The designation represents a commitment
to planning for Center development, with a planned mix or housing, conunercial, and
- employment opportunities. Most shopping and commercial uses are within a short walking
.- or bicycling distance of housing, There'is a higher proport.ion ofmuIti-family housing at
relatively high densities. Navy facilities could be GOnsidered for this dcsignaliOlL
c. J\ctivit.y and Employment Cent.ers are area<; of conc;entratcd employment and are a magnet
for significant numbers of people usually during dayt.ime hours because ofbm:iness and/or
manufacturing activities. They may be located outside or Urban Growth Areas, consistent
with the Growth Management Act. Industrial and business parks and Navy employment
centers arc in this category. Within Urban Growth Areas, the opportunity to include a
proportional residentiaJ element should be det.ermined on a case-by-.cm:e basis, considering
t.he unique geography and economics of the area.
d. Transportation Hubs are locations of regional inter-modal connection thai may be located
outside of Urban Growth Areas. Examples are ferry terminals, the Bremerton National
Airport, or certain transit stations.

Element D. Rural Land Uses and DevciopmentPattcrns
Rural areas of Kitsap County are characterized as having a variety of parcel sizes, with a diversity
ofland use activities. These areas also contain significant amounts of complex natural systems. It
is a high priority to preserve and enhance the rural character of these area'), Counties are
responsible for designating and regulating rural areas through the comprehensive planning process.
However, rural preservation is a regional issue and it is imponanlto coordinate these planning
objectives with the Cities.
f...olicies fo~Jl.uml Land tlses and nevelQI!ment Patterns i~..t.
1. P,-cscrving rural character and enhancing the natural environment
a. Preserve the character of identified rural areas by protecting and enhancing the natural
environment, open space and recreational opportunities, ,md scenic and historic areas;
supporting small-scale i:arming and forestry uses; and petmitting low-density residential
living and cluster development maintained by mraJ levels of service. Support Rura!
Communities as locations for a mix of housing typCf;, rural levels of service, cultural
activities, and employment that serves the needs of rural areas.
b. This policy is not intended to preclude the future designation of Urban Growth Areas,

a. ({ural Cmnmunities are already-existing residential and commercial areas of more
intensive rural development designated in the Kitsap County Comprehensive Plan under
RCW 36.70A.070,5. In-fill is expected. Rura! Communities should be serviced by
transportation providers and other services consistent with the Levels of Service adopted by
Kitsa-p County for roads and by Kitsap Transit for transit upon their dcsibrnation as an area
of more intensive rural development.
b. Tnmsportation Hubs may be located within existing areas or more intensi ve
developmenL Walking, bicycling, and transit are the major forms of traveL Transportation
Hubs are locations of regional inf.ermodal connection. Examples are ferry tcnninal8 and
transit stations with convenience services.
c. The County shall develop criteria consistent with the Growth Management Act for
designating future industrial and commercial development outside of Urban G1"O\\l1:h Areas
that protect rural character while encouraging vehicle trip reduction. TI1C criteria should
allow for industrial resource-based land use and recreation and for convenience commercial
that is scaled to serve the daily needs of rural residents.
3_ Establishing and maintaining nu-allevds of service:
a. Rurallevel-of-service standards shall address sewage disposal, water, transportation and
other appropriate services. Tl:e standards shall be developed based upon levels of service
typically deliverf'd in rural areas consistent with RCW 36.70A.030 (16).
b, For purpose of trip reduction, develop a range ofaltemative modes of transportation
consistent with rural levels of service to connect Rural Communities with urban Centers.

ElenHmt H. Transportation
The Growth Management Act requires that transportation planning be coordinated among local
and state jurisdictions. The (irowth Management Act further requires that transp0l1ation planning
be coordinated with the land use elements ofloeai comprehensive plans. Coordination ofland use
., and tnmsportation plans will allow KitsapCounty and the Kitsap Cities to meet three inter-related
transpOltation goals:
() Serve Designated Centers to reduce sprawl, conserve land and make rnorc efficient use of
intl"astnJcture,
o Preserv\~ the natural environment, inciuding water and air quality,
o Provide a balanced system for the efficient, sate movement of people, goods and services
among Designated Centers within Kitsap County and the larger Puget Sound region.
The intent of the following policies is to define appropriate methods and strategies to achieve these
goals through inter-regional and intra-regional coordination among transportation and land use
planning agencies.
For the purpose of this Policy, the j{)Howing transportation facilities are of countywide
signi:fieancc:
a, state and federal highways;
b. m[~jor arterials;
c. public transit facilities and services;
d. non-motorized facilities connecting designated centers;

From: Laura Lyon, Director of Financial Services
Re: Final 2007 Budget Amendments
Date: December 4, 2007
The City adopted the 2007 budget by Ordinance No. 4991 on December 6,2006 which
was then amended by Ordinance No. 5022 on September 5,2007. As we prepare to
wrap up the financial transactions for the 2007 year it is necessary to do one last
amendment to the budget to incorporate Council actions that have occurred subsequent
to the mid year budget amendment - and to correct other items that have come to the
attention of the staff in Financial Services.
Enclosed is the final budget amendment ordinance and supporting schedules. There
are a variety of issues addressed in the amendments, but the primary items are:
. Formally adopt and incorporate 2007 budget changes approved by council
subsequent to the mid year budget amendment.
. Reclassify expenditure categories as needed to properly reflect the actuals as
classified in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting. Principles.
. Increase labor expense ($21,600) in the General Fund Economic Development
Department budget to recognize the actual allocation of labor to General Fund
work that was higher than anticipated in the development of the 2007 budget -
project work related to the downtown tunnel not eligible for reimbursement and
therefore must be included in General Fund labor expense.
. Increase the supplies and services budget ($7,000) in the General Fund
Economic Development budget for furniture and supplies needed with the
required move of the Economic Development staff out of the Sinclair Building by
the end of 2007.
. Increase both the General Fund Fire Department budget expenditures and
revenues by $4,000 for receipt and expenditure of equipment sale proceeds
previously approved in 2006 but delayed into 2007 (net impact of zero).
. Increase personnel benefits expense in the General Fund City Council and City
Auditor Departments by $1,275 total due to variation in actual benefit
package/premium status from those assumed in the preparation of the 2007
budget. These two department personnel budgets are too small to absorb minor
changes that occur.
. Reclass a capital expenditure for an automatic rear gate installation at the Police
facility ($8,500) out of the police Department budget and into the General
Facilities budget (net impact is zero).
0 Increase labor expense for the General Fund Fire Department to cover
additional regular, overtime, and related personnel benefit costs incurred to
cover manpower shortages created by a number of overlapping disability leave
situations within the department. The total additional expense provided for by
this amendment is $55,430 which is offset in part by the reduction of the General
Fund Non-Departmental labor set aside for retirement costs which will not be
expended in 2007 ($12,500).
. Increase the Arterial Street Fund budget for both revenue and expenditures -
recognizing a Brownsfield Grant ($152,000) and related expenditures to conduct
environmental assessments at Charleston Beach Road.
. I ncrease and Decrease budgeted allocations of labor from the labor clearing
account in Public Works & Utilities for various City Funds and Departments to
reflect the actual distribution based on time sheet entries. The adjustments net
to an impact of zero for the total City budget but each Fund or Department labor
expense is impacted as shown:
General Fund - General Facilities $ 40,000
General Fund - General Facilities Capitalized Labor (15,000)
General Fund - Engineering (25,000)
Arterial Street Fund 28,000
Street Fund (102,000)
Parking System Fund 11 ,000
General Government Capital Improvement Fund 23,000
Wastewater Fund - Maintenance (120,000)
Wastewater Fund - Manager (30,000)
Wastewater Fund - Operations (10,000)
Wastewater Fund - Maintenance Capitalized Labor 200,000
Total Net $ -0 -
. Increase supply expense ($102,000) for the Street Fund to cover additional
supply costs incurred to provide for reimbursed work. Increase is offset by the
reduction in personnel expense allocated from the labor clearing account.
. Increase the Transfers from the Wastewater ($496,000) and Water ($39,000) to
the Utility Debt Reserve - fully funded by the 2007 Water and Sewer Revenue
and Refunding Bond issue but not reflected in the authorized budget. In
addition, the actual debt service payments authorized for 2007 requires an
adjustment of $11,000 for the Water Fund and $190,000 for the Wastewater
Fund to reflect all debt service obligations for the two utilities as finalized for
2007.
. Other miscellaneous adjustments as indicated in the ordinance and supporting
schedules.
The budget adjustments are necessary to properly reflect the nature and extent of
revenues and expenditures of the various City funds and departments. The ending fund
balances as amended by this ordinance for the General Fund and Utility Systems meet
or exceed the City's adopted Financial Goals & Policies expectations.
I will be reviewing these adjustments with the Finance Committee at the December 5,
2007 meeting. The proposed adjustments will then be reviewed with the full City
Council on December 12th, with action requested on December 19, 2007.

1
Park. Recreation & Open Space
Questions From November 18th Council Study Session
. How were the priorities established in the plan?
Project priorities in the capital facilities plan were derived from th'e 4 month public input
process for the plan, including surveys, public meetings, Park Board meetings and 15
focus group sessions held with park and recreation interest groups. Staff interviews
contributed projects that identified park conditions that affect public safety, including and
maintenance time sinkholes. Survey responses provided I feedback about community
needs and clearly stated that repair, renovation and maintenance projects in
neighborhood parks were a priority. Providing trails and parkland distribution were the
second and third ranked items. Later open house meetings refined the priority
improvement themes to develop specific projects for the Capital Plan. Most of the trail
priorities are reflected in the Non-motorized Transportation Plan, the exception are
internal park trails like the newly constructed perimeter trail at Lions Park, where
construction was underwritten by the Bremerton Central Lions Club.
. Page 27 Existing Inventory, the plan stated that there is an
additional 375 acres of public land at the two facilities Ivy
Green Cemetery, and Gold Mountain. What is the acreage of
these facilities?
Gold Mountain is 360 acres; Ivy Green is 15 acres
. On page 28, and 29, the maps did not show the Jarstad Park &
Gorst Creek as an existing park facilities, could this be include
on the map, since it is a park facilities?
The park plan consultant is adding these features to the maps that will be included in the
finaL version of the Park Plan to be printedafter~ adoption
. Page 61 , the Jarstad Park & Gorst Creek area in the park plan
should give a dimensional description of the area to include
the historical building on site, if the area is part of the park plan.
2
The Jarstad Park Parcel which is divided by Gorst Creek is approximately 15 acres.
An addition in the plan text will be made to reflect the historical building that is present
on the parcel.
. Page 73, I understand that the assessment of need was
divided into 4 basic categories, and one of those was input
from the survey. I don't think the public input from 388 citizens is
an adequate amount to base the need assessment on for the
City of Bremerton. I would have like to see the survey go out to
a broader area of citizens in the City. I believe that the survey
only when out to certain citizens, who was members of the park
activities. 3000 survey would only be a little more than 1 % of
the population in the City. I think, if we can work a little harder
at get more people involvement and promote parks, because I
do believe that people want good parks and recreational
activities, because it is healthy living for our families.
The survey was mailed to a random sample of 3000 city residents where a fa %
response rate should provide statistically valid results within a 3 to 4 percent msargon of
error. The comments received through the 15 focus group contacts and the open houses
with a combined attendance of 190 people provided a double check on the data received
on the survey.
. Page 95, The Haddon Park should be listed as a priority on the
8 year Capital Facilities Plan (Renovation Project by Year). This
park is used daily for walking, playground for children and a
basketball court. The park is known for its yearly summer youth
p~ogrom. Bathroom facility and another water fountain are .
very much needed, to include the improvement
recommendations made on page 45.
Haddon Park has a functioning restroom facility. Staff have made note of the need for a
water fountain and purchase and install one using an allotment of 2008 budget funds
designated for minor capital improvements.
3
. Comments: One of the initiatives that support the priorities in
the Budget Overview for 2008 reference the development of a
Master Plan for NAD Park. I didn't see where this who be
adopted in the Park Plan.
The NAD Park Master Plan is mentioned on is mistakenly called out on page 96 of the
draft Park Plan under NAD Marine Park (which has been master planned in 1986)
The plan citation will be moved to Upper NAD Park. Thank you for catching this error.
e Please explain the divestiture or transfer processes s for the
"Three Pocket Parks.
At the request of councillmember Shepherd, the Department and consultant planning
team reviewed city park holdings for properties that may be candidates for potential
divestiture. Three properties were identified as requiring further study and consideration,
and adoption of the plan does nothing to affect the status of these sites. If after further
review a recommendation to divest or transfer these properties is forwarded to Council,
then Council will act within its unanimous vote rule {Parks Protection Ordinance (BMC
13.12)) to change the status of each.site.
Additional Council Member Questions on Draft Plan
. Level of service (Mr. Wofford) - question concerned the
difference between the 5.5 ac/OOO standard for combined
n"eighborhood and community parks in the plan vs. the 6.5 GC.
Per 1000 number used in the Comparable Cities chart in
Appendix G page 1 55.
The Comparable chart on page 155 compares Bremerton previous systemwide acerage
standard per population standard adopted in the 2001 Long Range Plan Update to
similar jurisdictions in Washington and other comparable western U. S. Cities. The 6.5

neighborhood, some community and pocket parks. In contrast, the new plan proposes a
revised level of service standard of 5.5 ac/1000 of developed neighborhood and
community parkland - in other words, a level of service for developed active use parks,
rather than a systemwide standard that includes all park land. The the developed park
land standard helps to insure that active

. Prioritization of capital projects ( Mr. Wofford, Mr. Shepherd)
Project prioritization in the Capital Plan came primarily from survey results and public
comments heard from citizens during the open houses, park board meetings on the plan.
Some capital projects were vaulted upward in priority because they were attractive
candidates for specific grants that are available this year or next. Examples would be the
Senior Center Kitchen and Stephenson Canyon which both fit well for CDBG criteria and
had good user group support. The consultant will write a summary detailing the specific
nexus between the survey to make the concepts more clear in the final plan.

Non-Motorized Transportation Plan
Summary
The City of Bremerton Department of Public Works and Utilities initiated a community
outreach and planning process to develop this plan for the improvement of pedestrian and
bicycle facilities throughout the City. Two public meetings were held to receive public
input and comment and were well attended. In addition, interest group meetings were
held with such entities as the Bremerton School District, Olympic College, Harrison
Hospital, Kitsap County Health Department, and the West Sound Bicycle Club to obtain
specific interest needs. All of the groups were supportive of the plan.
The plan identifies major routes and corridors needing specific improvement projects that
will make walking and bicycling a much safer and enjoyable experience in Bremerton.
Specific projects are identified with planning level cost estimates identified.
Fiscal Summary
The current estimate to complete all of the improvements recommended in the plan totals
. in excess of $10 million. The improvements are anticipated to be constructed over a 10
to 20 year plan life. Funding for the improvements are anticipated to be developed
through state and federal grants, development related opportunities and local city sources
as they become available. The plan will better position the City to compete for state and
federal grants as they become available.

Re: Downtown Regional Center Sub Area Plan
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Staff and the Planning Commission are pleased to present the proposed Downtown Regional Center Sub Area Plan.
The Sub Area Plan includes two primary components: 1) an amendment to the 2004 Bremerton Comprehensive Plan
adding the Downtown Sub Area Plan and, 2) development regulations that will function as zoning upon Plan
adoption.
The Downtown Regional Center (DRC) is approximately 130 acres in the core historic center of the City. The 2004
Comprehensive Plan designated the extent of the DRC. Downtown Bremerton is also designated as 1 of 5 Regional
Metropolitan Centers in the PSRC Vision 2040 regional growth strategy. While comprehensive and regional plans
call for downtown to become the 'Metropolitan Center of the West Puget Sound', a clear and detailed urban design
strategy for greater downtown had not been developed at the time of the 2005 zoning code adoption. In the interim a
'stopgap' zoning scenario was put in place for greater downtown. In 2006 City Council funded work on a Downtown
Sub Area Plan to ensure that future redevelopment of the downtown is coordinated and well designed.
Extensive community and stakeholder meetings were held on the Sub Area Plan between the Spring of 2007 and the
present. First and second draft plans were completed in October and November. On November 20th, 2007 the
Bremerton Planning Commission held a public hearing and recommended the Downtown Sub Area Plan to City
Council for adoption. Copies can be viewed at the Bremerton City Hall, and on the City of Bremerton Web Page.
Two City Council study sessions are scheduled for November 28,,2007 and December 12, 2007 in advance of the
scheduled Council hearing date on December 19,2007. Staff is available to assist with comments and questions any
time during the review period.
OPTIONS
1. Adopt the proposed ordinance amending the Comprehensive Plan to include the Downtown Regional Center Sub
Area Plan and amend BMC Chapter 20.80 to activate the development standards of the Plan.
2. Take no official action on the Downtown Regional Center Sub Area Plan, continue deliberation, and make
additional revisions before acting on the Plan.

Downtown Sub Area Plan
ATTACHMENT II
FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS
OF THE CITY OF BREMERTON PLANNING COMMISSION
Summary - Proposal to include the Downtown Sub Area Plan in the Comprehensive
Plan and Zoning Code by amendment. The Zoning Code will add reference in BMC
20.80.080 to activate the Downtown Sub Area Plan as development regulations for the
Downtown Regional Center.
I. FINDINGS OF FACT
1. Project Description
The Downtown Sub Area covers a 130 acre are in the historic core of the City of
Bremerton.' The Sub Area Plan includes two primary components: 1) an amendment to the
2004 Bremerton Comprehensive Plan adding the Downtown Regional Center Sub Area Plan
and, 2) development regulations for the Downtown Regional Center that will function as zoning
upon Plan adoption. The Downtown Sub Area Plan also includes a number of 'Action Items'
that are recommendations for follow on actions by the City and stakeholders.
The Downtown Regional Center was designated in the City's 2004 Comprehensive Plan.
Downtown Bremerton is also designated as 1 of 5 Regional Metropolitan Centers in the PSRC
Vision 2040 regional growth strategy. While comprehensive and regional plans call for
downtown to become the 'Metropolitan Center of the West Puget Sound', a clear arid detailed
urban design strategy for greater downtown had not been developed at the time of the 2005
zoning code adoption. In the interim a 'stopgap' zoning scenario was put in place for greater
downtown. In 2006 City CounCil funded work on a Downtown Sub Area Plan to ensure that
future redevelopment of the downtown is coordinated and well designed.
The Downtown Sub Area Plan is a detailed planning document that fits within the framework of
the 2004 Comprehensive Plan. This is the most complex and already-developed of the areas
undertaken for Sub Area Planning since adoption of the Comprehensive Plan. The Sub Area
Plan fits within the growth projections of the Comprehensive Plan and implements the vision laid
out in the 2004 Comprehensive Plan.
2. Procedural History
A public participation process for the Downtown Sub Area Plan has been ongoing since
the Spring of 2007. The Sub Area Plan includes documentation of the public
participation process (Chaper 1). In sum, three public open houses and a wide range of
stakeholder meetings were held over the course of eight months. Additionally the Plan was
presented and discussed at a Planning Commission Workshop and a public hearing. Extensive
community input is integrated throughout the plan, meeting and exceeding requirements.
A summary of meetings, workshops, and open houses held is listed below.

range of outlets including advertisement in the Kitsap Sun, City of Bremerton
website and direct mailings. Direct mailings to persons within a 2/3 mile radius of
the Downtown Sub Area was the primary method for noticing meetings. A record of
e-mail contacts for all persons participating in a meetings was maintained. E-mail
notification was provided to those persons in advance of public meetings.
3. Public Comment
Numerous individuals, groups, and agencies provided comments at public
workshops, community meetings, and via comment cards and letters. Comments
received were considered and used to develop the draft plan that is prepared for
Planning Commission Reveiw. Record of participants in community meetings is
provided in Exhibit A to this Planning Commission Findings of Fact and Conclusion.

4, SEPA Determination and Environmental Review
Adoption of development regulations and amendments to the Comprehensive Plan
require evaluation of environment impacts through the State Environmental Policy Act
(SEPA). The Downtown Sub Area Plan is a non-project action considering general
planning level items and land use regulations for a district as a whole. A SEPA
checklist has been prepared with the Sub Area Plan submittal. The City issued a
determination of non-significance (DNS) on November 17, 2007 with an administrative
appeal deadline of December 18th, 2007. Since development is within the parameters
set forth in the 2004 Comprehensive Plan no additional environmental impact was found
with adoption of the more detailed Plan element and development standards.
Amendments to the Comprehensive Plan and development regulations also require a
60 day State Agency Review and Comment Period. The document has been forwarded
to state agencies and the review period commenced on September 25,2007.
Comparative Buildout Analysis - City Staff prepared a buildout analysis with the Sub
Area Plan comparing the projected growth totals under Sub Area Plan development
standards to the growth projections of the 2004 Comprehensive Plan. The comparison
found that projected commercial space per the Sub Area Plan is on par with the
Comprehensive Plan projection, and residential development projected per the Sub
Area Plan is only slightly higher. Since the Comprehensive Plan allowed leeway for
preparation of a Downtown Sub Area Plan, and because the Plan clearly meets the
policy and intent directives set forth within the Comprehensive the projected buildout
and density is found to be within the Comprehensive Plan parameter. The magnitude of
any change to potential buildout is also very small within the overall framework of the
City's overall growth strategy.
Additional Traffic Study - The Sub Area Plan includes street typologies, some of
which imply traffic revision, additional analysis on traffic flow is required. A related. study
in partnership with the Engineering department is being conducted to 'test' the
streetscape typologies to ensure fluid traffic movement with streetscape upgrades under
the prescribed buildout. Findings can be used to modify the proposed typologies as
necessary at the time of City Council review. The additional traffic study for the
downtown core is also ongoing. Instead of requiring new developments to do their own
site-specific traffic analyses. The City is choosing to require a flat fee contribution to an
in-house traffic study of the downtown street grid system.
S, Comprehensive Plan Consistency
Amendments to the Comprehensive Plan
Amendments to the Comprehensive Plan shall meet the decision criteria outlined in
BMC 20.10. The Planning Commission may recommend, and the City Council may
adopt or adopt with modifications, an amendment to the comprehensive plan if the
criteria outlined below are met. The proposal is to add the Downtown Sub Area Plan to
the Bremerton Comprehensive Plans as an amendment, providing more specific and
detailed planning for the area.
3
5.1 BMC 21.06.080(A) allows amendments to the Comprehensive Plan if there is an
obvious technical error.- Not applicable to this project.
5.2 BMC 21.06.080(B) allows amendments to the Comprehensive Plan if the
following criteria have been met.
5.2 (1) The amendment is consistent with the Growth Management Act (GMA):
This amendment is consistent with the GMA by meeting the criteria of the
Comprehensive Plan which was created to achieve the 13 goals of the GMA.
The Sub Area Plan meets the housing goal by providing a mixed use, mixed type
dense housing stock. It meets the open space and recreation goal by creating a
network of and incentives for open space plazas, public ways, through block
corridors and boardwalk connections. The Sub Area Plan will reduce sprawl and
promote urban growth by creating a dense mixed use environment.
5.2 (2) The amendment is consistent with the comprehensive plan or other goals
or policif)s of the City:
The Downtown Sub Area Plan is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan
Land Use Map designation of the Downtown Regional Center. Section 1 of the
document includes specific goals and policies of the 2004 Bremerton
Comprehensive Plan that are met by this proposal for the Downtown Sub Area.
Specific policies directly implemented are found in the Land Use, Community
Character, Transportation, Housing and Environment elements of the
Comprehensive Plan.
5.2 (3) If the amendment was reviewed but not adopted as a part of a previous
proposal, circumstances related to the proposed amendment have significantly
changed, or the needs of the City have changed, which support an amendment;
This amendment supplements and implements the Comprehensive Plan.
It is based on the direction of the Comprehensive Plan to develop specific area
plans for the Downtown Regional Center, and impacts are within the thresholds
of the 2004 Comprehensive Plan evaluation.
5.2 (4) The amendment is compatible with existing or planned land uses and the
surrounding development pattern;
The Downtown Sub Area Plan is compatible with adopted Downtown
Regional Center land use and the surrounding development pattern.
5.2 (5) The amendment will not adversely affect the City's ability to provide urban
services at the planned level of service and bears a reasonable relationship to
benefitting the public health, safety and welfare.
The Downtown Sub Area Plan will not adversely affect the City's ability to
provide urban services at the planned level of service. The amendment will
benefit the public health, safety and welfare by achieving numerous City goals
and policies, especially in the areas of Community Character (CC) and Land Use
(LU), by promoting a vibrant, cohesive downtown, that is transit supportive.
4
6. Amendment to the Zoning Code
An amendment to the Zoning Code, BMC 20.80.080 Master Development, is proposed
to accompany adoption of the Downtown Sub Area Plan. This amendment adds a
reference to the Ordinance adopting the Sub Area Plan, thereby activating the
development standards contained in the Plan as the zoning for the dowtnown.
Zoning code text amendments shall meet the decision criteria outlined in BMC
20.18.020(d). The Planning Commission may recommend, and the City Council may
adopt or adopt with modifications, an amendment to the zoning code text if the criteria
outlined below are met.
5.3(1) 20.18.020 allows amendments to the Zoning Code if it is consistent with the
goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan.
See discussion in 5.2 above for consistency with the Comprehensive Plan, and
Chapter 1 of the Sub Area Plan. The Downtown Sub Area Plan is fully consistent
with the Bremerton Comprehensive Plan.
5.3(2) 20.18.020 allows amendments to the Zoning Code if it does not conflict with
other City, state and federal codes, regulations and ordinances.
The Downtown Sub Area plan does not conflict with any other regulations.
II. CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATION
Based on the findings above, the Planning Commission concludes that the Downtown
Sub Area Plan has met the requirements for 1) amendment to the Comprehensive Plan
and 2) text amendments to the zoning code as detailed in BMC 20.80. Therefore the
Commission recommends the amendment to the Comprehensive Plan to include the
Downtown Sub Area Plan and an amendment to the zoning code text in BMC 20.80 to
include the Ordinance number of the Downtown Sub Area Plan.

Subject: Suppori for Sub-Area Plan
Tuesday, November 20, 2007
Bremerton Planning Commission
I am unable to attend tonight's meeting, but I want to weigh-in with my support for the Sub-Area Plan. The City
and Via are to be congratulated for a plan that demonstrates a deep understanding of the character of our
downtown neighborhoods, and, provides a realistic vision of the future we can anticipate when a strategic design
is applied. I strongly urge the Planning Commission to recommend adoption by the City Council.
There are parts of this plan that are truly brilliant:
· The Employment District' is a great use of this space. The City should start promoting it as soon as
possible.
. The vision of what Pacific Avenue can become as part of the Park-to-Park route.
· The combination of 80' tower spacing and Bonus Amenity Program will insure pedestrian-friendly
space downtown.
. A Sustainability District that can become a model for future sustainability efforts throughout the City.
And, as a resident of Highland Avenue, I appreciate the sensitivity shown our neighborhood.
There are three issues that I feel need more information/clarification. Given the scope of the plan, these are
minor:
1. One type of infill that seems very feasible to me is the addition of narrow townhouses/duplexes, or
accessory dwelling units next to or behind existing houses. Because such structures may be uniquely
designed to fit a restrictive space, I'm not sure they would always be allowed under existing (or proposed)
zoning, even though they might meet the spirit of this plan. Structures like this would almost certainly be
smaller than the 5,000 sf minimum that triggers review by the Design Review Board. I'm wondering if
there should be a similar design review process for smaller dwellings.
2. I think the creation of a Sustainability District is a great idea, and I'd like to see the City maximize its
benefit. Instead of just building it and then showing the finished product, let's turn it into a demonstration
project so local contractors and developers can see w.hat is being done and how it is being done. Also,
document costs and benefits so developers can get a "real world" sense of what is involved when they
adopt sustainable principles.
3. Transfer Density Credits: This is an interesting idea, but I'm sure that homeowners will need a great deal
of information about the consequences of unbundling property rights. Will the City research this is greater
detail. Where has it been done? What was the result? How did homeowners feel about it? How did it
affect property values? If the property is not owned free and clear, will banks (mortgage holders)
participate? There are many questions that need to be answered.
Any plan can be nit-picked apalt. Let's not let that happen to this one. This is a superb plan that addresses all
the miJjor issues of the various downtown districts and will serve the City well for many years. It is important for
the City to move on to the next step. I strongly urge the Planning Commission to recommend adoption by the
City Council without delay.

As part of our research into Bremerton, we had a h<'Jusing study conducted for the
downtown area. It showed an aging stock of apartmJnt buildings with very low rents
(3 0 cy<', below the regional average) and high vacancy ~ates (about twice the regional
average). In addition, this low rent generally includes parking and other expenses,
These rates are nowhere near sufficient to stimulate lnew residential development: not
even with New Market Tax Credits. While a tax abatement program cannot change
market rents, it can reduce expenses, whicll raises det incomes, helps secure financing
for the development and makes new housing more f~asible in downtown.
Another aspect to consider is the quality of the deve1~pment the City wishes to
encourage. At best, the current market only allows f0r the least expensive type of
construction. I believe we should build ahead of the hlarket; to what Bremerton will
demand in five or ten years, not to what current conaitions allow. We should focus on
higher quality construction and green features, whilJ striving to maintain efficient and
affordable units. Extending the multifamily tax abatJment would encourage building
higher quality now, which we feel is the right thing t6 do.
lt is difficult to attract retail without downtown resid~nts. Retailers need customers. At
this point we sense reluctance on the part of retailed to locate in downtown Bremerton
based on the lack of residential population and foot traffic. With the tax credit, I feel we
will spur higher quality residential construction dowbtown. Evidence of its imminent
I
development will help attract the retailers. Both resiqents and retail are needed for the
\'ibrancy of the downtown. People will then attract other people, and generate retail
sales, and sales tax revenue.
Thank you for your thoughtful consideration,

Ceoffrey,
Thank you for speaking last eveninq at The I) i) 0 . 13eincl nce;v 1:0 the area, your presentation
was very jl(~lpful.
I would like to renew my request to make a safety adjustment to the new light at BunveLL
and Washington. My concern is that ped'2strians alonq Washington Avenue are not given
enouqh notice that they they are entering a crosswalk. Shortly after the light chancJed,
my husband and I were walking along the sidewalk and a car nearly ran us down as it
proceeded from BurweLl into the Harborside qarage area. There is no color change or curb
to identify that a walker is entering a street. When walking from the ferry towards the
Manette Bridge, the button to change the walk siqnal is well hidden. People with certain
disabilities would have no way to know the danger of merely walking along that sidewalk.
Perhaps a quick fix would be to require all traffic turning into the Harborside to stop
first (a blinking red light? or at least a blinking yellow?) . More difficult fixes might
include an audible warning or even re-doing the sidewalk to include curbs. Perhaps a
tunnel?
Thanks again for helping to educate us newcomers. Please feel free to forward this email
to the appropriate department that regulates intersections and traffic signals.

The Honorable Cary Bozeman, Mayor
The City of Bremerton
Norm Dicks Government Center
345 6th Street, Suite 600
Bremerton, W A 98337
Dear Mayor Bozeman:
RE: PROPOSED IO-YEAR PROPERlY TAX ABATEMENT FOR THE CITY OF BREMERTON,
WASHINGTON STATE
It is our understanding that the City of Bremerton is considering expansion of a property tax
abatement program within the City that would apply to multifamily units that are proposed
for development. This is an option provided by the State under House Bill 1910 (2007-08).
It is also understood that this proposal is an attempt to spur additional development within
the downtown area, as well as to assist in successful completion of the developments that are
currently under construction.
It is our considered opinion that such a measure should be implemented for a number of
reasons as set out below.
To ENCOURAGE DEVELOPMENT OF ADDITIONAL HOUSING STOCK
It is dear that Bremerton has defined goals as it pertains to its downtown area. It continues
its transformation with development of the Kitsap Conference Center, Harborside Park and
a new manna. Thus far a crucial, albeit lacking, component of its transformation is
continuing interest in the development of multifamily communities both apartments as well
s for-sale products. The developments that have been built (The Harborside and The 400)
stalled in their sales last year. This is in addition to the tightening credit markets as well as
the adoption of cautionary posture by potential buyers as they wait to see how the sub-prime
woes play out.

206/442-9200 206/442-9201 (fAX)
e
If we look specifically at the two available developments we note that sales stalled well before
the market as a whole softened as a function of the reasons eXplained previously. The
current absorption rates that are being achieved at the two active developments are well
below that expected by financial institutions. Lenders looking to come into this market will
look carefully at historic sales activity to assist in their decision making. At the absorption
levels that arc being seen at The 400 and the Harborside, it is extremely unlikely that they
will be willing to invest in the area, or any particular development.
For reference, there are still 42 units (54%) available at the Harborside and 29 units (41 %)
at The 400. One must add that the Harborside has been marketing since mid 2005 and The
400 since early 2006.
In as much as balancing the needs of the overall population with the development
community is important, so is the need for local government to be "action oriented" in their
approach to economic development.
By eliminating or lowering taxes on till new residential construction, for sale as well as for
rent product, in the City, a universal tax abatement would provide ample encouragement to
current and future investment. It is critical that the City include rental product as well as
for-sale product as apartments represent an important part of the fabric of the downtown
area and there is demonstrated demand for such a product.
It is our understanding that there is currently an abatement zone that excludes the waterfront
area. We believe that this zone must be extended to include the waterfront district. Hard
costs to build away from the waterfront are no different, and to exclude this area will further
demonstrate to potential equity and debt sources that it is not a market in which to invest.
The city must expand its abatement zone to encompass the preferred residential location, it's
waterfront.
THINK OF IT AS A REVENUE GENERATOR
There are numerous direct revenue streams In favor of Cities that are associated with
development of residential housing units. The most obvious are excise taxes on the sale of
the asset but substantial income is also generated from indirect as well as induced effects.
There will be direct economic benefits to the City economy generated by new residents at
the subject properties. Through summary of the likely demographics and retail spending
patterns of households purchasing homes at future developments one is able to estimate the
total new jobs, income and taxable retail sales by new residents.
Additionally, there will be indirect and Induced Economic benefits (ripple/catalyst effects)
for the City generated by new residents. These will include annual indirect impacts, or
growth in jobs and income and taxable business revenues for industries indirecrly affected by
THE MAYNARD BUILDING

~
resident spending. There will be annual induced impacts, or growth in jobs, income and
taxable business revenues for industries benefiting from private spending by new Brcmerton
residents as well as those indirectly benefiting from new commerce.
It is a commonly accepted theorem that, holding other important casual f..'lctors constant, a
given change in property taxation or abatement results in an expected change in a chosen
measure of economic activity. 1
All of the above will be generators of additional income to the City as a product of additional
residential development that may well exceed revenues lost from the City's portion of
property tax revenues should all or part not be reimbursed by the State.
Mayor Bozeman, success with all forms of residential development is crucial to the City's
goal of revitalization. I trust that you will consider these points when reviewing the case for
implementation of a property tax abatement.
Respectfully yours,

Still gotta get the traffic through town - effectively we should hope. Eleventh St.
11 th: Single lane and bike lane with landscaped median in
downtown area. Eleventh St.
11th needs wider sidewalks - trees and a bike lane, When the
tunnel is built there will be plenty of room for traffic If low. Right
now 11th is a speedway!
I like the area on 4th St. between Washington & Pacific. Make
more streets like that.
Please choose a different font for drawings.
Ooh - Weather protection - Nice! Pacific St.
Yes! Trees on both side of the road. Pacific St.
Too little parking in downtown as it is. We are still a vehicular
society. Pacific SI.
Use up space here to make more pedestrian friendly. The front
yards are already too small. Might as well make it more
comfortable for everyone. Warren Ave.
Where's Park Ave.? Make into a "Bicycle Boulevard"
Street side benches and trees for rest stops. Visual relief. In margin.

Also present: Andrea Spencer, GeoffWentlandt, and Pam Ransier (DCD staff); Mike Mecham
and Larry Matel (PW&E staff); and John Perlic (consultant to the City).
III. Approval of Agenda
Chairman Cockburn introduced the agenda. It was agreed by general consensus to approve the
agenda as presented.
IV. Approval of Minutes
The minutes of the Special Meeting held on October 23, 2007 were presented for approval by
Chairman Cockburn. A motion was made by Commissioner Kennedy and seconded by
Commissioner Mosiman to approve the Special Meeting Minutes of October 23, 2007 as
presented. Called for a vote: Commissioner Kennedy: Yes; Commissioner Mosiman: Yes;
Commissioner Wheeler: Yes; Chairman Cockburn: Abstain. The motion carried.
VI. Public Meeting
A. Call To The Public (public comments on any item not on tonight's agenda).
Chairman Cockburn asked if there were any comments from citizens. Seeing none, he
closed this portion of the meeting.
B. 1. Public Hearinl! - Downtown Rel!ional Sub-Area Plan: Geoff Wentlandt, City
Planner, introduced the Downtown Regional Sub-Area Plan and gave a brief history of
the sub-area plan process and explained the purpose of a sub-area plan. Action items
were also included in the sub-area plan to guide Community Development and other
departments in future development. Geoff responded to questions regarding building
scale, stacked units, and build-out numbers brought forth by the commission at the
Planning Commission Meeting November 20, 2007 Page 1 of6
previous meeting. U sing a slide showing local and international landmarks such as the
large shipyard crane, the Smith Tower and Space Needle (Seattle), and the Eiffel Tower
(Paris, France), Geoff illustrated how the proposed building heights in downtown
Bremerton would measure in comparison.
The issue of stacked flats in the proposed R-20 near Evergreen Park had been revisited
and it is believed a workable solution has been found for owner-occupied, ground related
stacked flats.
For build-out or development numbers, additional research by staff has shown that the
commercial increase under the proposed sub-area plan compared to the 2004
Comprehensive Plan would be about 3%; residential would be an increase of about 7% to
8%. The 2004 Comprehensive Plan had not taken into consideration the neighborhoods
at the edges of the downtown core and had relied on a 200 I study called The Calthorpe
Plan for projected density. Staff also requested the ability to make minor adjustments to
the parking quantity and the addition of broader language regarding the Multi-Family Tax
Incentive boundary before bringing this plan to City Council for action.
Letters from Brad Rucker, Metrovations Development Company (Ron Sher), Kim
McDonald, and Gardner Johnson were entered into the record.
Chairman Cockburn asked if there were any comments from the public on this item.
Mark Goldberg, MS Cavoad Co., Seattle, W A: "First I want to commend the City's
Department of Community Development staff for doing an incredible job of bringing in
this company who did this sub-area plan. I've been in the development business over 30
years in the greater Seattle area, and this is one of the finest plans I've seen put together.
As, I think, most people know, I'm very active in town here and I've been watching this
thing come together and this is very well thought out. I've said to the people that, staff,
over the years (none of them are here today), that until the City develops a plan that
makes the land more valuable than the houses, none of these houses around here are ever
going to disappear. This plan absolutely does it and I heartily recommend the passage of
this and the tax abatement over all the area the plan, not just including condominiums,
but in apartments. It's critical that we have housing for the workforce that's going to
come here. Not everybody's going to be able to afford a condominium. Thank you."
Pastor Dennis Payne, Ebenezer AME Church, Bremerton, W A: "We sit on Park
A venue and own property on McKenzie and, working with the staff, we recommend that
this recommendation go forward. We've been in the City for 95 years and one of our
biggest obstacles is parking and alleyways so we would love to see that area rezoned so
that we can have some mixed-use and some condos or some apartments on top with the
retail space on the bottom. I commend the committee for their work and ask that we
would move this forward. Thank you."
Kurt Weist, Bremerton Housing Authority, 110 Russell Road, Bremerton, WA: "I
also am very pleased with the process that the City has gone through up to this point with
the sub-area plan. The Housing Authority owns a significant piece of property on Park
A venue between 7th and 8th and Warren. Included on that parcel of land is an existing
Planning Commission Meeting November 20, 2007 Page 2 of6
multi-family apartment complex, The South Court Apartments, and we've also spent
some money doing brownfield remediation of property that's been contaminated. That
work has been completed on the block. We're looking forward to providing a
development on that block that is something that will be a benefit to the City of
Bremerton and provide workforce affordable housing for residents here. [Inaudible]
talked with planning staff and consultants, let them know what our plans are and we're
very pleased with the direction that's going with [inaudible] fits in very well with our
vision of what we should do with that property, so I would endorse the work that's been
done thus far and look forward to Council approval as well. Thank you."
It was noted that several members of the Ebenezer AME Church concurred with Pastor
Payne's earlier comments regarding the Downtown Regional Sub-Area Plan.
Chairman Cockburn asked if there were any further comments from the public on this
item. Seeing none, he closed this portion of the meeting.
Chairman Cockburn asked for clarification on how traffic to the ferry would flow as the
obvious choice, Pacific A venue, was slated for "pedestrianization". Geoff explained that
ferry traffic "trickles in" as compared to the rush of traffic leaving the ferry, thus the
emphasis on pedestrian traffic. Mike Mecham, City Engineer, agreed, adding that the
tunnel project would alleviate the heavier traffic exiting the ferry.
Chairman Cockburn expressed concern regarding the addition of a median or turn lane
to 11 th Street and how that would impact the high volume of traffic in that area. Mr.
Mecham said that staff was waiting for a traffic study from EK Engineers (consultant to
VIA Architecture).
A motion was made by Commissioner Streissguth and seconded by Commissioner
Kennedy recommend to City Council an amendment to the Bremerton
Comprehensive Plan adding the Downtown Sub-area Plan (shown in Attachment I),
and an amendment to Zoning Code Chapter 20.80 to activate the development
regulations of the Downtown Sub-area Plan (shown in Attachment II) based on the
Findings and Conclusions (shown in Attachment III), and allow for correction of
minor errors and omissions in advance of City Council review. Called for a vote:
Commissioner Kennedy: Yes; Commissioner Mosiman: Yes; Commissioner Wheeler:
Yes; Chairman Cockburn: Yes. The motion carried.
2. Public Hearin2 - Non-Motorized Transportation Plan: Mike Mecham, City
Engineer, introduced the Non-Motorized Transportation Plan. Using a Power Point slide
show, Mr. Mecham gave an overview of the plan. He noted that many ofthe items listed
in the plan would most likely not come to be for many years, but stressed the importance
of having a non-motorized transportation plan in place when applying for grant money
for sidewalk and roadway improvements. Stakeholders were included in the plan's
process; these stakeholders included the school districts, Puget Sound Naval Shipyard,
the West Sound Bicycle Club, Olympic College, Kitsap County, and Harrison Hospital.
Two open houses were conducted to engage the community, as well as letters and e-mails
from citizens. Mr. Mecham's presentation highlighted areas of the city that needs
Planning Commission Meeting November 20, 2007 Page 3 of6
,
improvement and reviewed the plan to correct and enhance the non-motorized portion of
Bremerton's transportation problems.
Chairman Cockburn asked if there were any comments from the public on this item.
Seeing none, he closed this portion of the Meeting.
Commissioner Kennedy asked about the appropriateness of having curb cuts in the Non-
motorized Transportation Plan. Mr. Mecham said it was because it could still be
regarded as separate from the plan when applying for grants, but the information was
important for inventorying sidewalk needs.
Commissioner Wheeler asked about the proposed use of center left turn lanes on 6th
Street. John Perlic (Parametrix) said that the language had been changed to be a center
left turn lane or a center median, depending on the access needed.
A motion was made by Commissioner Streissguth and seconded by Commissioner
Wheeler recommending the Non-motorized Transportation Plan per Attachment I
to City Council for adoption. Called for a vote: Commissioner Kennedy: Yes;
Commissioner Mosiman: Yes; Commissioner Streissguth: Yes; Commissioner Wheeler:
Yes; Chairman Cockburn: Yes. The motion carried.
3. Public Hearin2 - 2007 Comprehensive Plan Amendment Docket: Geoff
Wentlandt, City Planner, presented the request for a land use designation rezone near
Werner Road. The request had been introduced at the September 18, 2007, Planning
Commission meeting and had been revised per the commission's instructions to staff
regarding the size and location of a proposed Neighborhood Business. The revised
request also included the retention of an Industrial Park land use designation at Werner
Road to allow the area to remain semi-industrial in character while providing access to
the proposed residential development.
Chairman Cockburn asked if there were any comments from the public on this item.
JeffPantier, Hatton Godat Pantier (engineering/planning firm representing TriWay
Enterprises): "I was here on September 18th, last time, and so I thank you fortaking the
time to hear this again. You thought you were done, but we're back. I think that the
work that Geoff has done here with this revised proposal is a better proposal than the one
that was brought before you on September 18th. It's a result of, as Geoffput it, sort of an
understanding with the property owners in the area. I thought that it was interesting, in
your deliberations back in September, that the Commission shared a common goal with
that of TriWay Enterprises; that is, TriWay believes that, with the development of the
West Hills project, along with this additional land that's the subject of this
Comprehensive Plan amendment, that there will be a need for some commercial services
to support this residential development. And in looking at that, we thought that it would
be better served and, as Mr. Mecham talks about making the city pedestrian friendly and
so forth, I think that this is in line with that because what we've done is located the
commercial area, the 1.5 acre area in red, central to the entire development, and so that'll
make it more accessible for the residents that are going to live in the development. It's
probably a little hard to see or put it in perspective on that map [indicates the map
Planning Commission Meeting November 20, 2007 Page 4 of6
provided to the commissioners by staff], but it truly is about as centrally located as you
can get, considering where the main collector roadway traverses through the site from
Pendergast Park area and then on up to Werner Road. So, we like that location; we also
like the idea that one of the findings that was made back in September 18th was that the
Commission urged staff to continue to work with the property owner, TriWay
Enterprises, with the development of this commercial area in such that, maybe it could
grow to something larger than an acre and a half in the future. We support that and we
agree that we think there's potential for something greater there. You see the area that
Geoff s dotted in red around their potential future expansion; we believe that that's a very
good possibility that we'll be back to you in a few years to talk about that. But we also
understand that the plan needs to unfold before we go there. I would urge the
Commission to recommend approval of this to the Council, and include a similar finding
that the Commission made September 18th whereby the staff continues to work with
TriWay and address the needs for a commercial center in this area, of appropriate size, to
serve the entire neighborhood. I'm happy to answer any questions if you have any.
Thank you."
Chairman Cockburn asked if there were any further comments from the public on this
item. Seeing none, he closed this portion of the meeting.
There was general discussion regarding clarification of where the access road to the
development would be. Staffused an aerial map to show the access roads.
A motion was made by Commissioner Streissguth and seconded by Commissioner
Kennedy to revise the Planning Commission's recommended action of the 2007
Comprehensive Plan Amendment Docket as shown in Attachment I based on the
revised Findings of Fact and Conclusions in Attachment II. Called for a vote:
Commissioner Kennedy: Yes; Commissioner Mosiman: Yes; Commissioner
Streissguth: Yes; Commissioner Wheeler: Yes; Chairman Cockburn: Yes. The motion
carried.
Chairman Cockburn closed the Public Meeting.
VI. Business Meeting
A. Chairman's Report: None.
B. Director's Report: Andrea Spencer, Director of Community Development, reported
that GeoffWentlandt had been promoted from Planner II to Senior Planner.

No. ~O~ amending BMC 3.78 relating to COUNCIL MEETING Date: December 19, 2007
exemption of ad valorem property tax for Department: DCD
new multi-family housing and modification Presenter: Andrea L. Spencer
of the designated target areas. Phone: 360.473.5283
SUMMARY:
In 1995 the State Legislature passed 84.14 RCW that allows cities to create a tax incentive program to
induce development of new multi-family housing within designated target areas, and in October 2006
the City Council established the use of the tax incentive program for a small target area in the
downtown core.
Revisions to the tax incentive program (BMC 3.78) are proposed at this time to address changes in
State law pursuant to Second Substitute House Bill 191 0 and to match the designated residential target
areas with the City's adopted sub-area plans for the designated centers of Downtown and Wheaton-
Riddell.
ATTACHMENTS:
I. Proposed Ordinance No. $'o3b
2. Staff Memo
FISCAL IMP ACTS (Include Budgeted Amount): Property tax revenue from new multifamily
housing projects will be lost for 8-10 years, but this can largely be off-set by added sales tax revenue
generated by new residents. Without the incentive w development may not materialize as planned.

program.

MEMORANDUM
To: City Council
From: Andrea Spencer ~
Date: December 5, 2007
Re: Multi-Family Tax Incentive
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Proposed revisions to the Multi-Family Tax Incentive are two fold. First, the ordinance adjusts for changes in the State law
during 2006 pursuant to Second Substitute House Bill 1910. The proposed revisions also expand and implement the
Multi-Family Tax Incentive for the full extent of Center districts having adopted Sub Area Plans in the City of Bremerton.
This includes the Downtown Sub Area, and the Wheaton-Riddell Sub Area.
CHANGES TO STATE LAW
House Bill 1910 revised the Multi-Family Tax enabling state law, changing the program from a 10-year 'across the
board' multi-family tax exemption, to a maximum exemption of 8 years for market rate housing and 12 years for
affordable housing. The changes in the law also add significant language to encourage low income housing; and
annual reporting requirements have been increased. The proposed ordinance changes the City's program to meet
these new requirements.
OTHER PROGRAM REVISIONS
The proposed Ordinance makes specific expansions of Target Area boundaries to include the full extent of the Downtown
Regional Center, and the Wheaton-Riddell District Center. These are the two center districts to date that have adopted
Sub Area Plans. The suggested policy direction is to apply the Multi Family Tax Incentive to center districts that have been
carefully considered with Sub Area Planning. Additionally, the proposal seeks to include quality rental as well as
homeowner opportunities in the Multi Family Tax incentive. Currently the city's program excludes rental opportunities.
The discussion below includes supporting reasons why the proposed changes to the Multi-Family Tax Incentive Program
are in the best interest of the City of Bremerton, and meet the intent of the enabling State law.
Implements Growth Stratet:lv - The Multi-Family Tax Incentive is one tool the legislature made available for
implementation of the GMA. Bremerton and other cities' growth strategies are based on strong centers-based land use
concepts, which reduce sprawl pressure on rural lands. The tax incentive is meant in part to increase the viability of dense
development in centers. Creating a vibrant and active downtown and centers districts where people live is a key goal of
the City's Comprensive Plan. The intent and purpose of the law is to apply to full centers districts where carefully
considered and appropriate.
Economic Need - Another requirement is that an economic need for the incentive must be present to make new multi-
family development viable. In both the Downtown Regional Center and the Wheaton-Riddell center a clear economic
need is present in order to make development of new multi-family housing viable. This can be seen in recent activity and
recent studies. No housing has been built to date in the Wheaton-Riddell Sub Area. In downtown the only two new multi-
family developments are struggling with slow absorption rates that will make financing of new residential development in
the area very difficult in the coming years. The economic analysis conducted by a consultant team with the Downtown
Sub Area Plan found economic conditions very challenging for new construction. The consultant pointed out that
Bremerton sale prices and rents are relatively low compared to the region, but construction costs are constant. This
makes new projects very difficult for developers. By reducing the up front tax load, the incentive allows developers to 'fill a
gap'.
Carefullv Planned Areas (Sub Area PlanninC/) - The State Law also includes language requiring that the Tax Incentive
must be applied only in areas that have been carefully considered with detailed plans and/or design standards. This is to
ensure that the incentive contributes to quality neighborhoods and does not result in poor development. Bremerton's
established land use tool for such planning is the sub area plan. Wheaton-Riddell and Downtown have both undergone
recent sub area planning that will ensure a high quality, coordinated development in the areas the Incentive is being used.
Stav Competitive With Peer Cities - Most of Bremerton's peer cities in the region and state have larger and more active
programs. Tacoma and Spokane apply the Incentive to all of their downtowns plus all of their center districts. Vancouver,
WA and Bellingham apply the Incentive to the full extent of their greater downtowns. Seattle currently applies to a portion
of north downtown and two additional center districts. Most of these cities have extensively used the program for more
than 7 years. By not having a strong Incentive program Bremerton is at a competitive disadvantage in capturing new
urban development in the region.
Positive Fiscal Impact - The fiscal impacts of implementing the Incentive are complex. While the City foregoes additional
near term property tax revenues for 8 or 12 years, a range of other revenue sources balance the reduction. On any new
development significant sales tax and REET are collected. Utility hookup fees are collected, and other taxes on utility
usage by new residents (eg. phone and cable) are collected. Sales taxes generated by new resident spending at local
businesses will also increase. It should also be noted that as a revenue source, the city's share of property taxes are small
relative to the portion going to the County and the School District: Finally, after 8 or 12 years the exemption goes away.
Most major multHamily buildings have much longer 40 - 50 year Iifespans.
Adiustable ProC/ram -It is important to note that the Incentive is an adjustable program that can and should be revisited
and modified over time. State law revisions call for periodic monitoring to ensure the program is still needed, and is serving
its state purposes. The Council may choose to cease, or change the boundaries of the residential target area at any future
time based on shifts in economic and development conditions.
EncouraC/e Affordable HousinC/ - A purpose of the program in state law is to encourage construction of quality
affordable housing. Bremerton's Comprehensive and Consolidated Plans and other policies also call for provision of
affordable housing. The Incentive program reduces prices for buyers, and if expanded to rental stock, can reduce rental
rates in new buildings. Including new rental construction can help upgrade and modernize the rental stock - making new
quality rental construction more feasible. Including rental housing in the program also alleviates the inequality of treating
buyers and ~enters of housing differently.

RE: Extension of lO-Year Property Tax Abatement to Rental Units
Dear President Maupin and Honored Council Members:
The Kitsap Economic Development Alliance Executive Committee respectfully requests
consideration of extending the 10-year exemption of ad valorem property tax on new or
rehabilitated buildings that create ten or more housing units to apartments. This extension will
spur investment in new and existing apartment units as well as units intended for sale.
High quality, affordable apartments will provide housing options for customers and employees in
the downtown core - a vital component for continued growth and revitalization of the downtown
core. The extension of the abatement to high quality apartments will also increase investment
from the private sector.
As bringing buyers of condos to Bremerton's downtown core will add energy and vitality to the
physical improvements already underway - the addition of attractive, high quality, affordable
apartments will also provide an outlet for workforce and talent not ready for home ownership
who are seeking to be part of Bremerton's revitalization.
The KEDA Executive Committee encourages you to consider extending the abatement to high
quality, affordable apartments as Bremerton continues to build on a reputation for forward
thinking and creative use of available tools in order to achieve the City's Revitalization goals.
Respectfully,
Chris Rieland, President

Re: 2007 Comprehensive Plan Amendment Docket
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Staff and the Planning Commission are pleased to present the proposed 2007 Comprehensive Plan Amendment
Docket for Council consideration. Sate and City statutes allow the Comprehensive Plan to be amended a
maximum of once per year (not including adoption of Sub Area Plans). The 2007 Docket includes three
amendments as follows:
1) A land use map amendment re-designating lands south of the Werner Rd. corridor from primarily Industrial
(I) to primarily Low Density Residential (LDR). This amendment was initiated by property owners through
application procedures. The amendment was initially recommended by Planning Commission on
September 18th, and a refined recommendation was made by the Commission on November 20th, 2007.
2) Updates to formally adopt the 2007 Parks, Open Space & Recreation Plan, the 2007 Non-Motorized
Transportation Plan, and to reflect adopted Sub Area Plans on the official Land Use Map.
3) Minor text amendments to reconcile conflicting language within the Comprehensive Plan, and to ensure full
consistency between the Comprehensive Plan and the Zoning Code.
Council should also note that a fourth amendment related to updates of Urban Growth Area (UGA) boundaries
and land use designations within UGAs pursuant to the County's 2006 Comprehensive Plan was reviewed and
recommended by Planning Commission. However, due to uncertainty caused by a Hearings Board remand of
the County's Comprehensive Plan, this amendment is not brought forward for adoption at this time.
OPTIONS
1. Adopt the 2007 Comprehensive Plan Amendment Docket.
2. Take no official action on the 2007 Comprehensive Plan Amendment Docket, continue deliberation, and
I
make additional revisions before acting on theDocket.

DRAFT FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS
OF THE CITY OF BREMERTON PLANNING COMMISSION
2007 Annual Comprehensive Plan Amendment Docket
I. FINDINGS OF FACT
1, Project Description
The City considers Comprehensive Plan amendments annually. A new
Comprehensive Plan was adopted in December of 2004 and the intent of this year's
amendment process is to make only minor changes and corrections. The City received
one amendment applications from the public, and three amendments have been
identified by staff. The four changes on the docket are: change in land use
designations south of Werner Rd. (applicant proposed); updates to reflect Sub Area
Plans completed since the 2004 Comprehensive Plan; revisions and corrections related
to Urban Growth Areas; minor text corrections related to Land Use Designations for full
consistency.
2. Procedural History
2.1 On September 5, 2007 Staff notified the Department of Community, Trade and
Economic Development of the intent to adopt amendments to the Comprehensive
Plan.
2.4 On September 11, 2007 a notice of Planning Commission public hearing was
published in the Kitsap Sun and the public was invited to comment.
2.5 On September 18, 2007 Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on
the 2007 Comprehensive Plan docket and fonnulated a recommendation to City
Council.
2.6 On November 20th, 2007 the Planning Commission conducted a second public
hearing on the 2007 Comprehensive Plan docket to consider a revision to
Amendment I of the docket.
3. Public Comment
3.1 Individuals providing verbal testimony at Planning Commission public hearing:
a. Jeff Pantier. Hatton Godat Pantier, Inc.

3.2 Individual providing verbal testimony to staff.
a. Richard Christopherson. Ace Paving. PO Box 4520 Bremerton, WA 98312.
4. SEP A Determination
A SEPA Determination of Non Significance (DNS) on this action was issued on
September 7,2007.
EXHIBIT A
5, Consistency
Amendments to the Comprehensive Plan shall meet the decision criteria outlined in
BMC 20.10. The Planning Commission may recommend, and the City Council may
adopt or adopt with modifications, an amendment to the comprehensive plan if the
criteria outlined below are met.
5.1 BMC 20.10,080(A) allows amendments to the Comprehensive Plan if there
is an obvious technical error in the pertinent comprehensive plan provisions,
Three of the amendments fall into the category of obvious technical error. The
Updates for Sub Area Plans falls into this category because it is updating language
that has become outdated or inaccurate due to additional Sub Area Plans having
been adopted since initial Comprehensive Plan adoption. The amendment for
Urban Growth Area Revisions and Corrections falls into this category because it is
updating language that has become outdated or inaccurate due to a new County
Comprehensive Plan having been adopted since initial City Comprehensive Plan
adoption. And the amendment for Text Corrections to land use designations is
needed to reconcile conflicting language within the Comprehensive Plan.
5.2 BMC 20.10.080(B) allows amendments to the Comprehensive Plan if
certain criteria have been met.
The amendment of the land use map to change the designation of 98.5 acres of
lands south of Werner Rd. in West Bremerton from primarily Industrial (I) to Low
Density Residential (LDR) with a 1.5 acre pocket of Neighborhood Business (NB)
and to change a 7.09 acre section of lands from the Industrial (I) designation to the
Industrial Park (JP) designation.
5.2 (1)The amendment is consistent with the Growth Management Act by
addressing the current land uses of the sites by adjusting the map to better suit
the needs of those uses, and directs urban growth in appropriate areas.
5.2 (2)The amendment to change to LDR is consistent with the comprehensive
plan such as LU-3 because it allows for an environment that promotes growth,
and LU-1 by enhancing distinctive neighborhoods, and communities, throughout
the city.
5.2 (3)The Planning Commission previously reviewed and City Council adopted
the land use map in December 2004. Since that time circumstances related to
the proposed amendment have significantly changed, or the needs of the City
have changed, which support an amendment. The vision for the subject property
is that it will be developed with residential, not with industrial uses. Market
demand for single family residential developments in the south and west
Bremerton vicinity has expanded significantly in recent years. Meanwhile
industrial demand has been flagging. Also, the City of Bremerton contains an
overabundance of Industrially available lands as documented in the 2004
Comprehensive Plan.
EXHIBIT A
5.2 (4)This amendment to the land use designation is compatible with existing or
planned land uses and the surrounding development pattern. The proposed
residential development is immediately adjacent to a permitted (platted) 600+ unit
residential housing development. The LDR lands are also within close proximity
to a large regionally scaled public park. The inclusion of a pocket of
Neighborhood Business (NB) is compatible with Comprehensive Plan directives
to locate NB in locations to support residential communities without easy access
to a Center district. This vicinity has no walking access to a Center. However,
after further consideration the NB pocket is positioned near the center of the
potential development to allow for possible future conversion to a Neighborhood
Center.
5.2 (5)The amendment to designate the area LDR will not adversely affect the
City's ability to provide urban services at the planned level of service. The
amendment will bennefit the public health, safety and welfare by achieving some
of the City's housing goals, including H3 "Provide a variety of housing types and
densities to meet changing needs of Bremerton residents." Critical City
infrastructure including potable water and sewer trunk lines are in Werner Rd.
adjacent to the proposal. Werner Rd. is a transportation .arteriallinking to Route
3, for convenient transportation access.
5.2.(6) The inclusion of a 7.09 acre area of Industrial Park (IP) at the edge of the
development at Werner Rd. is consistent with Comprehensive Plan directives.
Particularly applicable is the description of the IP land use designation pg. LU 57:
"Provide for appropriat locations for light industrial uses in a well planned
complex. Industrial Parks shold include adequate landscaping, architectural
standards, and other site design consideration to assure compatibility with
neighborhing uses- especially residential areas." Policy LU1J is also directly
applicable: "Buffer surrounding communities from regional transportation
corridors, allowing for transitional and sensitive development patterns. Ensure
flexibility and options for buffering."
5.3 Discussion of Possible Future Neighborhood Center at Werner Rd. & Nearterm
Size of the Neighborhood Business Component
The Planning Commission discussed at length the size and nature of the Neighborhood
Commercial component ~o support large residential developments in the Werner Rd.
corridor. The Planning Commission concludes that at the current time, a relatively small
Neighborhood Business pocket is appropriate. The general magnitude of approximately
one and a half acres is recommended. After review of the proposed amendment I
during the November 20th, 2007 meeting the Commission also finds that a more central
location is appropriate for an NB pocket. Planning Commission recognizes that in the
future there may be a need for a larger commercial pocket to support residential
development in the area, which could grow to become an additional Neighborhood
Center. The Comprehensive Plan does call for most residential neighborhoods in the
EXHIBIT A
city to have nearby access to a Neighborhood or District Center. As development
unfolds in the Werner Rd. Corridor the Planning Commission recommends future review
of supporting commercial, and whether a Neighborhood Center is warranted.
II. CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATION
Based on the findings above, Planning Commission concludes that the 2007
Comprehensive Plan Amendment Docket has met the criteria for amendments to the
plan as detailed in BMC 20.10.080 and therefore recommends adoption by the City
Council.

Re: Werner Rd. Rezone
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This action is to rezone the 97.09 acres of land south of the Werner Rd. corridor from primarily Industrial (I) to
primarily Low Density Residential (R-10). A corresponding Comprehensive Plan re-designation of the lands is
included in the 2007 Comprehensive Plan Amendment docket. Planning Commission recommended the land

Recommendation and then final action by the City Council. City Council must hold a closed record Public
Hearing before approval of the rezone action. An Open Record public hearing is scheduled for December 10th,
2007 with the Hearing Examiner. Staff has recommended that the Hearing Examiner make findings in favor of
the rezone contingent upon City Council approval of the 2007 Comprehensive Plan amendment docket.
OPTIONS
1. Hold a closed record public hearing and approve the rezone.
2. Take no official action on the rezone, continue deliberation on the rezone at a later date.

. 2. The City ofBremerton (City) determined the application was complete on April 30, 2007. On
October 29,2007, the City gave combined notice of the application and the open record hearing
associated with the application by mailing notice to departments, agencies, and owners of
property within 300 feet ofthe subject property.2 On October 30, 2007, the City posted combined
notice on the subject property and published notice in the local newspaper of record. Exhibit 4;
Exhibit 5; Exhibit 16, Staff Report, page 4.
3. The property subject to the rezone request is currently undeveloped. The property is accessed
from Werner Road, an arterial roadway located along the northern boundary of the subject
property. Werner Road contains public water and sanitary sewer mains to serve future
development within the subject property. Exhibit 16, Staff Report, page 2.
4. Adjacent property to the west is currently designation designated Industrial and City Utility
Lands under the City Comprehensive Plan. An existing gravel mine operates adjacent to the west
of the lndustrial- and City Utility Lands-designated property.3 Adjacent property to the east is
designated Low Density Residential under the City Comprehensive Plan. While the property
adjacent to the east is currently undeveloped, plans for the 630-unit West Hills residential
subdivision have been preliminarily approved for this property. Development of the planned
West Hills subdivision would provide a secondary access route to the subject property. Geoffrey
Wentlandt, City Planner, testified that the Applicant owns the property upon which the West Hills
subdivision would be constructed. The City Staff Report noted that utilities would be extended to
the subject property in conjunction with the adjacent planned development. Mr. Wentlandt
testified that preliminary approval of the West Hills subdivision proposal has resulted in a marked
change in the vicinity of the subject property. Exhibit 1; Exhibit 2; Exhibit 3; Exhibit 9; Exhibit
. 16, Staff Report, page 2; Testimony of Mr. Wentlandt.
5. Zoning classifications must be consistent with City Comprehensive Plan land use designations.
RCW Chapter 36. 70A; Bremerton Municipal Code (BMC) 20.40.170. Currently, 87.09 acres of
the property are designated Industrial and 10 acres are designated City Utility Lands under the
City Comprehensive Plan.4 The Applicant submitted an application to the City for a
comprehensive plan amendment in conjunction with the rezone application.5 The Applicant
2 Bremerton Municipal Code (BMC) 20.02.100 and BMC 20.02.110 permit combined notice of application
and open record hearing.
3 Ace PavIng Company holds Washington Department of Natural Resources Reclamation Permit No.
12599 and Bremerton Special Use Permit 6-87 to conduct basalt surface mining on a 60 acre site adjacent
to the southwest comer of the subject property. The permits were issued in 1987 and 1988, respectively.
The mine is expected to operate with a 40-year life expectancy. Exhibit 9.
4 City ofBremerton Comprehensive Plan, last updated December 2004.
5 According to BMC Chapter 20.10, the City considers Comprehensive Plan amendments on an amiilal
cycle. Comprehensive plan amendments require Planning Commission recommendation and final City
Council approval. Approval of a Comprehensive Plan amendment is required prior to or concurrently with
the granting of an approval on a related rezone request. BMC 20.58. 040(e). The City Council will act on
the Applicant's Comprehensive plan amendment request on December 19, 2007. The City ofBremerton
Hearing Examiner reviews the rezone request to permit efficient City Council processing of the concurrent
comprehensive plan amendment and rezone requests. BMC Ch. 20.10; Exhibit 16, Staff Report, pages 3 -

Business (1.5 acres), and Industrial Park (7.09 acres). The revised amendments included
. relocating the Neighborhood Business designation more centrally within the Low Density
Residential area to better serve the area that would be designated Low Density Residential, and
locating an Industrial Park-designated area adjacent to Werner Road. Staff developed the revised
recommendation based on Applicant input, public comment, Werner Road design and traffic
pattern, and the site plan of the planned subdivision adjacent to the subject property. Staff
recommended including an Industrial Park-designated area to respond to the input of neighboring
property owners, and to be consistent with the Industrial designation of surrounding property and
the existing semi-industrial character of Werner Road development. Staff recommended an
expanded 1.5 acre Neighborhood Business designation to allow for future expansion into a
Neighborhood Center, ifproposed.8 JeffPantier, Applicant Representative, spoke at the meeting
in favor of the recommended revisions. Exhibit 7; Exhibit 8; Exhibit 9; Exhibit 16, Staff Report,
pages 1 and 3.
9. On November 20,2007, the City Planning Commission made a formal recommendation to City
Council to change the comprehensive plan designation of the subject property from Industrial and
City Utility Lands to Low Density Residential, Neighborhood Business, and Industrial Park,
according to City staff recommended revisions. The City Council intends to consider the
Comprehensive Plan land use re-designation recommendation during its December 19,2007
meeting at the same time it considers final approval of the proposed rezone request. Exhibit 7;
Exhibit 16, Staff Report, pages 1 and 3 - 4.
10. At the open record hearing on the rezone request, Mr. Pantier testified that the Applicant has
revised his rezone application to request a rezone of the subject property to Neighborhood
Business, Industrial, and Low Density Residential to reflect the recommended 2007
. Comprehensive Plan amendments. The City Staff Report states that the rezone application is
"fully consistent" with the Planning Commission's land use re-designation recommendation. Mr.
Wentlandt testified that the proposed rezone would be consistent with the City Comprehensive
Plan if the 2007 Comprehensive Plan amendments are adopted by the City Council. Mr. Pantier
testified that the change is due to a property exchange agreement between neighboring property
owners: the City, the Applicant, and Richard Christopherson of Ace Paving. Under the
8 The Neighborhood Center (NC) land use designation is meant to establish Neighborhood Centers, which
are mixed use environments with an emphasis on mixed use structures, pedestrian oriented design, mixed
and varied housing types, and provision of neighborhood scale commercial, professional, and community
services. The size and scale of a Neighborhood Center is such that it has an average development density
of20 units per acre, and it provides a focus and services for an area approximately one mile in diameter
surrounding the center. City Comprehensive Plan, Land Use Element, LU-48, page 86. The
Neighborhood Business (NB) land use designation is meant to establish small scale business locations
outside of centers, commercial corridors, or the downtown area. Neighborhood Business districts are
typically no larger than one acre. Uses under the designation are small scale retail and business activities
serving the immediate surroundings, including small groceries, convenience stores, small offices, and
restaurants. Neighborhood Business districts should only be placed in areas where access to neighborhood
supporting commercial activities cannot be provided in a Neighborhood Center, District, Center,
Employment Center, Downtown Regional Center or Commercial Corridor district within walking distance
- usually one mile or less. City Comprehensive Plan, Land Use Element, LU-55, page 93. The Staff
Report noted that the Planning Commission recommended a Neighborhood Business redesignation rather
than the Neighborhood Center redesignation requested by the Applicant because of Comprehensive Plan
directives for where Neighborhood Business designations should be located. Exhibit 16, Staff Report, page

. (1) The rezone is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan;
(2) The rezone will advance the public health, safety, or welfare, and will not have adverse
impacts on adjacent properties;
(3}The rezone is necessary because either:
(i) Conditions in the immediate vicinity or neighborhood have so markedly changed that
it is in the public interest to approve the rezone; or
(ii) The rezone will correct a zone classification or zone boundary that was inappropriate
when established; and
(4) The rezone is in the public interest.
BMC 20.58.040(d).
If a Comprehensive Plan amendment is required in order to satisfy subsection (d)( 1) above, approval of
the Comprehensive Plan amendment is required prior to or concurrently with the granting of an approval
on the rezone. BMC 20.58.040(e).
Conclusions Based on Findings
1. With conditions, the proposed rezone would be consistent with the City Comprehensive
Plan. The Applicant has revised the initial rezone application to request a rezone consistent with
the 2007 Comprehensive Plan amendments recommended to the City Council by the City
Planning Commission. The recommended amendments include changing the land use
designation of the subject property from Industrial and City Utility Lands to Low Density
Residential, Neighborhood Business, and Industrial Park. Thus, the proposed rezone would
change the zoning classification of the subject property from Industr:ial and City Utility Lands to
Low Density Residential, Neighborhood Business, and Industrial. According to Figure 20.40(b),
. the BMC Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Consistency table, these zoning classifications are
consistent with the recommended Comprehensive Plan amendments. The City Council will
consider the proposed rezone concurrently with the recommended Comprehensive Plan
amendments. The proposed rezone would facilitate single-family residential development
adjacent to an area of planned residential development, consistent with Comprehensive Plan goals
and policies to create and enhance residential neighborhoods within the City. The area that would
be classified Neighborhood Business would permit growth over time into a Neighborhood Center
to serve surrounding residential development. Providing for an Industrial classification within the
subject property along Werner Road would permit Werner Road to retain its industrial character
and buffer residential neighborhoods to the south and east from Werner Road. Conditions of
approval are necessary to ensure that the rezone request is not approved unless the City Council
approves the concurrent Comprehensive Plan amendments assigning a new land use designation
to the subject property. Findings 1, 3 - 5, 7 -12.
2. With conditions, the proposed rezone would advance the public health, safety, or welfare,
and would not have adverse impacts on adjacent properties. The City provided adequate
public notice and opportunity for comment on the rezone request. The City analyzed the
environment impact of amending the property's land use designation, necessary to approve the
rezone request, and determined that the amended designation would not have a probable
significant adverse impact on the environment. The proposal would permit future residential and
industrial development within the subject property, in an area that already hosts residential and
industrial development. Commercial/retail use within the area that would be reclassified
Neighborhood Business would provide services useful to residents of future surrounding
. Findings, Conclusions, and Recommendation
