Ridge Park and to consider naming an element of the park or street within the park to recognize Mrs.
Arends. Parks and Recreation staff then coordinated with Engineering, Kitsap County GIS and
Kitsap County CenCom to determine if North Summit Avenue could be renamed to "Carol Arends
Parkway" as outlined in BMC 11.18. Approval was granted. North Summit Avenue is within the
