Operation Neighborhood L.I.F.T. Presenter: Council Member
(Leadership and Investment Fostering Greg Wheeler
Transformation)
Phone: (360) 473-5280
SUMMARY:
Council Member Greg Wheeler is proposing a code enforcement policy shift away from "complaint-
based only" to a "proactive" approach utilizing the Citizens Auxiliary Patrol volunteers and existing
City resources (Public Works and Parks Department workers) who are already in the field.
Operation Neighborhood L.I.F.T. would begin with a focus on the following three (3) issues:
1. Cars parked on laws
2. Visible trash
3. Weeds (overgrown vegetation)
It is hopeful that this new approach will be informational and educational, as well as punitive.

Operation Neighborhood L.I.F.T.
Leadership and Investment Fostering Transformation
I am proposing a Code Enforcement policy shift away from "complaint based only" to a
"proactive" approach utilizing our Citizens Auxiliary Patrol volunteers and existing City
resources (ex: Public Works, Parks workers) who are already in the field. I would like to start
with focusing on the following three issues:
*Cars parked in lawns *Visible trash *Weeds (Overgrown Vegetation)
This initiative is a logical next step to the Chronic Nuisance Ordinance, Landlord
Notification Program, Rental Registration Program, Vacant Property Ordinance and most
recently the redirection of CDBG money to blight. Many times the property owners or tenants
are unaware of the rules regarding property upkeep, especially if they witness similar violations
going unchecked. I would like this new approach to be informational and educational as well as
punitive.
The result of unchecked code violations in our city leads to an image that Bremerton does
not care about the very rules we have put in place. Direct impacts on our citizens are: reduced
property values and a disincentive to invest in one's own home. Indirect impact include a
general feeling of being unsafe. Many of the issues driving the City to adopt the Vacant Property
Ordinance apply here, as it is widely recognized that property deterioration leads to
neighborhood destabilization. The Journal of Urban Economics publication the City Council
referred to in our 2013 code adoption; when developing the Vacant Properties Ordinance,
mentions that visible deterioration signals to potential offenders that a neighborhood is less
invested and less likely to report code violations and criminal activity. Direct impacts on our
city budget include: reduced property tax collection, reduced real estate excise tax collection and
increased need for law enforcement.
The current policy requires neighbors to report each other. Using the anonymous
complaint form only means one of your neighbors reported you for a violation, which could lead
to neighborhood distrust and retaliation.
Utilizing my initiative, the first approach from the city could be Staff or Volunteers;
using their personal cell phones, sending photos of violations to Code Enforcement. Code
Enforcement would follow up with letters to property owners/tenants. Volunteers or Staff could
also engage person to person; with information or a letter depending on the situation informing
the persons of the BMC violation, with reports back to Code Enforcement.
If conducted properly the image presented by the City; would be similar to a properly
implemented Police Bicycle Patrol program, where city police presence equates to a positive
deterrent. I have researched many cities for similar programs and think the The City of
Shoreline provides a good model called"Customer Response Team" (CRT).

There have been numerous past studies that document
potential benefits of passenger-only service to Kitsap
County residents. This project is built upon those studies
and includes potential ridership demand for the proposed
routes, terminal improvements, vessel requirements,
a proposed financial plan, and a phasing strategy and
implementation plan to bring all of the elements together
to guide the Kitsap Transit Board of Commissioners.
New funding sources will be required because current
Kitsap Transit revenues are not sufficient for cross
sound passenger ferry service. New grant funding will
address some portion of terminal improvements and
vessel acquisition. However a local revenue source will
be necessary to supplement capital costs not covered
by grants and to subsidize operating costs in excess of
farebox revenues.

Kitsap Transit-Passenger-Only Ferry Business Plan and Long Range Strategy
Summary Report
34
Kitsap Transit
Passenger-Only Ferry
PRO's&CON's
PRO's
1. Faster commute for Seattle workers living in Kitsap County.
2. Easier access to jobs, schools and entertainments in Seattle for people living in Kitsap
County.
3. Increase the population of Bremerton, Kingston, Silverdale, Seabeck& Port Orchard.
4. Raise the median income of people living in rider areas.
5. Increase property values in rider areas.
6. Some POF employees will live in Kitsap County.
7. Facilitate business migration from Seattle to Kitsap County.
CO N's
1. Kitsap County will shoulder all of the risk and cost of the subsidy for the POF.
2. Seattle and King County will benefit by having Kitsap County become a bedroom
community without shouldering any of the risk of the POF or cost of the POF subsidy.
3. Timid fare box recovery increases the taxpayer subsidy of POF riders.
4. The taxpayer subsidy is forecast to steadily increase without end.
5. The sales tax will increase from 8.7%to 9.0%for the entire population of Kitsap County
but the ferry will be used by only a small segment of the population.
a. Possible negative impact on retail business especially those in South Kitsap.
b. Probable negative impact on Bremerton auto dealers.
c. Possible negative impact on City of Bremerton if car sales decline.
6. There is a perception that low income blue collar workers in Kitsap County will subsidize
the ferry for high income white collar Seattle workers living in relatively inexpensive
Kitsap County real estate.40%of the households in Kitsap County have an annual
income of less than$50,000.
7. Increased ferry ridership will result in increased traffic to the ferry docks.
8. Increased ridership will increase the demand for parking spaces at the ferry terminals.
9. As sales taxes increase,the cost of living will increase for everyone in Kitsap County.
10. As property values increase in the rider areas, rents will increase.
11. The POF will compete with WSF for walk-on ferry passengers.This may affect WSF
ridership and result in future WSF service reductions.
12. Some POF employees will live in King County.
Wild Cards
1. Bremerton-Port Orchard Ferry is operating at a loss.
2. People accept a one-hour commute to Seattle.Will the POF increase the population of
Bremerton or the areas outside of Bremerton? Kitsap County will shoulder all of the risk
and

Kitsap Transit board moves closer to
putting ferry plan on ballot
By Ed Friedrich
February 16, 2016 4:19 p.m.
BREMERTON —The Kitsap Transit board overrode an emotional plea by Poulsbo Mayor
Becky Erickson and moved a cross-Sound passenger-only ferry plan closer to a public vote.
Members directed staff to prepare resolutions for the April 5 board meeting to:
Adopt a final business plan.
Authorize a countywide public transportation benefit area — not a separate ferry district—that
would collect a local sales tax increase of 3 cents on a $10 purchase.
Place the measure on the Nov. 8 general election ballot.
Tuesday's study session indicated how the board final vote in April might look. Erickson,
Poulsbo City Councilman Ed Stern and Bremerton City Councilman Richard Huddy opposed all
three motions. County Commissioner Rob Gelder voted against only the transportation benefit
area, out of fear that it could appear that bus and ferry operations are intertwined.
Voting in favor were County Commissioners Ed Wolfe and Charlotte Garrido, Bainbridge Island
Mayor Val Tollefson, Bremerton Mayor Patty Lent and Port Orchard Mayor Rob Putaansuu.
Erickson dealt the plan some body blows, but it didn't go down. She said the Rich Passage 1,
which was designed and built specifically to sail between Bremerton and Seattle in 30 minutes
without harming beaches, is a bad boat. She predicted that waterfront property owners would
sue to stop it, that woody debris would damage the boat and that the service will prove too
expensive. The local sales tax increase would be better applied to fixing traffic messes in Gorst,
Silverdale and on Highway 305.
"With 11.5 million a year, we could fix those problems," she said. "We're throwing it away on toy
transportation. It was developed as an economic development tool for Bremerton. It's not the
best decision for the people of Kitsap County."
Mike Anderson of KPFF Consulting said King County's passenger ferries have little trouble with
flotsam. They complete 99.8 percent of their trips between West Seattle and Vashon Island.
Researchers know the Rich Passage 1 could make more daily round trips than the six on which
it was tested but not how many more, said project manager Carla Sawyer. There is monitoring
money built into the plan.
The plan calls for routes to Seattle from Bremerton, Kingston and Southworth, operated for
Kitsap Transit by the King County Marine Division.
Bremerton service would begin in July 2017, Kingston in July 2018 and Southworth in July
2020.
Eighty percent of funds for boats and terminals would be expected to come from federal grants.
Each route would offer six round trips per day during commute times in the slow half of the year.
Midday, nighttime and Saturday trips would be added during peak season. The cost would be
$2 more each way than the Bremerton, Bainbridge Island and Kingston car ferries, or about $12
for full fare. Reduced fare would be $6. Young, old and disabled people could ride at half price,
and a $168 monthly pass would be available to commuters.
Previous passenger-ferry operations failed, including two in Kingston and another in Bremerton,
and two others were voted down before they could get started. Washington State Ferries' 350-
passenger Chinook and Snohomish were wildly popular, however, before being shut down by
lost funding and a lost lawsuit.
None of the earlier attempts underwent such thorough planning as this one, Lent said. They
didn't offer enough service or longevity to succeed.
"It isn't for the commuter we're doing this for," she said. "It's for the people we're attracting to all
of Kitsap County."
Most of the eight residents who spoke Tuesday opposed the plan, including James Hazel, of
Illahee.
"Kitsap is not suburban Seattle," he said. "I think the passenger-only ferry is an attempt to
change Kitsap into another Bothell. We should be looking at true infrastructure."
At the other extreme, Jaime Forsyth, of Bremerton, doesn't think the plan goes far enough.
"It really needs to be about the community and not just special interests," she said. "(Expanded
service) needs to be here all year round. We don't have a peak season when we live here."
