Participant’s vested interest under any such other plan shall be considered a vested interest under
this Plan; provided, however, that the provisions of this paragraph shall not be applied so as to
allow the amount of a loan under this Section 4.02 to exceed the amount that would otherwise be

(a) require level amortization with payments not less frequently than quarterly
throughout the repayment period, except that alternative arrangements for repayment may apply

7
any such loan default occurs, the interest rate for such loan shall be (if higher than the rate
otherwise applicable) the rate being charged on loans from the Plan that are approved by the
Administrator in the month in which such default occurs, (iii) no contributions shall be made on
such Participant’s behalf prior to the first payroll period that follows by 12 calendar m onths the

shall be made by payroll deduction of equal amounts (comprised of both principal and interest)
from each paycheck, with the first such deduction to be made as soon as practicable after the loan
funds are disbursed; provided however, that a Participant may prepay the entire outstanding
balance of his loan at any time (but may not make a partial prepayment); and provided, further,
that if any payroll deductions cannot be made in full because a Participant is on an unpaid leave
of absence or is no longer employed by a participating employer (that has consented to make
payroll deductions for this purpose) or the Participant’s paycheck is insufficient for any other
reason, the Participant shall pay directly to the Plan the full amount that would have been

provisions of the Plan, a Participant may at any time revise his or her participation election,

as of the first day of the next following month or as soon as administratively practicable if later.
A change in the investment direction shall take effect as of the date provided by the
Administrator on a uniform basis for all Employees. A change in the Beneficiary designation
shall take effect when the election is accepted by the Administrator.

absent from work by leave of absence, Annual Deferrals or Contributions under the Plan shall
continue to the extent that Compensation continues.

during any portion of the period of his or her disability to the extent that he or she has actual
Compensation (not imputed Compensation and not disability benefits) from which to make
contributions to the Plan and has not had a Severance from Employment.
ARTICLE VI. GENERAL DEFERRAL AND CONTRIBUTION LIMITS
6.01 Maximum 457(b) Contribution Limit. Except as provided in Sections 6.02 and
6.03, the maximum deferred and contributed amount under the Plan for the Participant’s taxable
year shall not exceed the lesser of (a) the maximum dollar amount under IRC Section 457(b ) (2)
(A) and as adjusted for cost of living adjustments described in IRC Section 457(e) (15), both
provisions as currently enacted and hereinafter amended, or (b) 100% of the Participant’s
Includable Compensation as provided in IRC Section 457(b) (2) (B). These limits apply to the
combined amount of deferred compensation and Roth 457 (b) plan contributions.
9

the Participant’s last three taxable years ending before the attainment of Normal Retirement Age

the prior taxable years during which the Participant was eligible to participate less the amount of
Compensation deferred by the Participant under the Plan for each of such prior taxable years.
6.03 Age 50 Catch-Up Deferral or Contributions. A Participant who will attain age
50 or more by the end of the calendar year is permitted to elect an additional amount of Annual
Deferrals and/or Contributions, up to the maximum age 50 catch-up Annual Deferrals for the
year. The combined deferrals and contributions shall not be greater than the
(a) amount set forth in IRC Section 414(v)(2)(B) and as adjusted for cost-of-

(without regard to this Section).
6.04 Participation in more than one Plan. The amount deferred or contributed from
a Participant’s gross income under this Plan or any other eligible plan under section 457 of the

amount with respect to which a deduction is allowable by reason of a contribution to an

participates in more than one plan (whether or not maintained by the same sponsor) must allocate
the dollar limitation among the plans in which he or she participates.
6.05 Participation in Tax-Sheltered Annuity. If an individual who participates in
an eligible deferred compensation plan also participates in a tax-sheltered annuity program,
contributions that are excludable from his or her gross income under Code Sec. 403 (b) reduce
the limitation, under Code Sec. 457, on the amount of compensation which may be deferred
under the eligible 457 Plan. For purpose of computing the exclusion under Code Sec. 403 (b), an
amount deferred in an earlier taxable year under an eligible State deferred compensation plan
(with regard to the sponsoring entity) is treated as an amount contributed by the employer and
excluded by the employee under Code Sec. 403 (b), if the taxable year of the deferral counts as a
year of service for purposes of Code Sec. 403 (b).

such deferrals or contributions relate.
ARTICLE VIII. EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTIONS

Section 457(b).
11.02 Eligible Rollovers from the Plan. A Participant or the surviving Spouse of a
Participant (or a Participant’s former Spouse who is the Alternate Payee under a Domestic
Relations Order, as defined in IRC Section 414(p)) who is entitled to an Eligible Rollover
Distribution may elect, at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Administrator, to have all
or any portion of the distribution paid directly to an Eligible Retirement Plan specified by the
Participant in a direct rollover.
11.03 Plan-to-Plan Transfers - to the Plan.
(a) Permissive Plan-to-Plan Transfers. At the direction of the Employer,
the Administrator may permit a class of Participants who are Participants in another eligible
governmental IRC Section 457(b) plan to transfer assets from said eligible governmental IRC
Section 457(b) plan to the Plan as provided herein. Such a transfer is permitted only if the other
Plan provides for the direct transfer of each Participant’s interest therein to the Plan. Transfers
from other eligible 457 Plans (as defined in IRC Section 457) to the Plan will be accepted at the
Participant’s request if such transfers are in cash.
(b) Effect of Transfers on Annual Deferral and/or Contribution
Limitations. Any such transferred amount shall not be subject to the limitations of Section 6.01
Basic Annual Limitation, 6.02 Special Section 457 Catch-up Limitation, and 6.03 Age 50 Catch-
14
Up Annual Deferral and/or Roth Contributions, as an Annual Deferral/Contribution, provided
however, that the actual amount deferred during the calendar year under both Plans shall be
taken into account in calculating the maximum Annual Deferral/Contribution for that year. The
amount so transferred shall be credited to the Participant’s Account Balance and shall be held,
accounted for, administered, and otherwise treated in the same manner as an Annual
Deferral/Contribution by the Participant under the Plan.
(c) Required Documentation for Transfers to the Plan. The Administrator
may require such documentation from the other Plan as it deems necessary to effectuate the
transfer in accordance with IRC Section 457(e)(10) and Treasury Regulati on Section 1.457-10(b)
and to confirm that the other Plan is an eligible governmental plan as defined in Treasury
Regulation 1.457-2(f).
11.04 Plan-to-Plan Transfers - from the Plan.
(a) Outgoing Plan-to-Plan Transfers Pursuant to Severance of
Employment. At the direction of the Employer, the Administrator may permit a class of
Participants and Beneficiaries to elect to have all or any portion of their Account Balance
transferred to another eligible governmental plan with the meaning of IRC Section 457(b) and
Treas. Reg. 1.457-2(f). A transfer is permitted under this Section 9.04(a) for a Participant only if
the Participant has had a Severance from Employment with the Employer and is a public
employee of the entity that maintains the other eligible governmental 457(b) Plan. Further, a
transfer is permitted under this Section 9.04(a) only if the other eligible governmental 457(b)
plan provides for the acceptance of plan-to-plan transfers with respect to the Participants and
Beneficiaries and for each Participant and Beneficiary to have an amount deferred and or
contributed under the other plan immediately after the transfer at least equal to the amount
transferred.
(b) Outgoing Plan-to-Plan Transfers While Employed. If the Employer
offers an eligible governmental 457(b) plan other than the Plan, and such other plan accepts
transfers, the Participant may transfer the Account Balance in cash from the Plan to the other
plan.
(c) Limitation of Liability. Upon the transfer of assets under this Section
9.04, the Plan’s liability to pay benefits to the Participant or Beneficiary under this Plan shall be
discharged to the extent of the amount so transferred for the Participant or Beneficiary. The
Administrator may require such documentation from the receiving plan as it deems appropriate
or necessary to comply with the is Section 9.04 (for example, to confirm that the receiving plan
is an eligible governmental plan under paragraph (a) of this Section 9.04, and to assure that the
transfer is permitted under the receiving plan) or to effectuate the transfer pursuant to Treas. Reg.
1.457-10 (b).
(d) Correction of Excess Deferrals and/or Contributions. If the Annual
Deferral and/or Contribution on behalf of a Participant for any calendar year exceeds the
limitations described above, or the Annual Deferral and/or Contribution on behalf of a
Participant for any calendar year exceeds the limitations described above when combined with
other amounts deferred or contributed by the Participant under another eligible 457 Plan under
section 457(b) of the Code for which the Participant provides information that is accepted by the
Administrator, then the Annual Deferral and/or Contribution, to the extent in excess of the
applicable limitation (adjusted for any income or loss in value, if any, allocable thereto), shall be
distributed to the Participant.

ARTICLE XII. DOMESTIC RELATIONS ORDERS
12.01 Receipt of Domestic Relations Orders. When the Employer, Administrator, or
Plan receives a Domestic Relations Order (DRO), judgment, decree, or order (including approval
of a property settlement agreement) pursuant to 26 USC 414(p) that relates to the provision of
child support, alimony payments, or the marital property rights of Spouse or former Spouse,
child or other dependent of a Participant is made pursuant to the domestic relations law of any
State, then the amount of the Participant’s Account Balance shall be paid in the manner and to
the person or persons so directed in the DRO as the Alternate Payee. Such payments shall be
made without regard to whether the Participant is eligible for a distribution of benefits under the
Plan. The Administrator shall establish reasonable procedures for determining the status of any
such decree or order and for effectuating distribution pursuant to the DRO. Upon receipt of a
DRO:
(a) The Administrator shall notify the Participant and Alternate Payee of the
receipt of the DRO, and
(b) Within a reasonable time, the Administrator will follow the procedure
adopted by the Employer to determine the validity of the DRO. In the event the Administrator
believes that the DRO is acceptable, it will process the DRO in accordance with the
Administrator’s procedures. If the DRO does not appear to be acceptable, the Administrator may
contact the Employer for a final determination and instruction regarding final disposition of the
DRO.
12.02 Validity of DRO. For purposes of this Article XI, a valid DRO is a judgment,
decree, order, or approval of a marital property settlement made pursuant to a state domestic
relations law (including community property law), relating to the property rights of a Participant
and Alternate Payee. In addition, the DRO must:
(a) Create or recognize the existence of the right of an Alternate Payee to all
or a portion of benefits payable with respect to a Participant under the Plan;
(b) Clearly specify the following information:
(i) The name and last known mailing address of the Participant and
Alternate Payee covered by the DRO; and
(ii) The amount or percentage, or the manner in which the amount or
percentage is to be determined, of the Participant’s benefits to be paid to the Alternate Payee;
and
(iii) The number of payments or period which the DRO applies; and
(iv) The Plan to which such DRO applies.
(c) Provide a form of payment to the Alternate Payee that is permitted under
the Plan; and,
(d) Not require the payment of benefits to an Alternate Payee which are
required by a prior DRO to be paid to another Alternate Payee.
12.03 Processing of a DRO. If it has been determined that a DRO applies to a
Participant’s account, unless specifically directed otherwise by the Employer, the Administrator
shall comply with the DRO. The Administrator may place a restrictive hold on a Participant’s
Account Balance while it determines the validity of, and/or processes a DRO. The Administrator
16
shall establish a separate Account Balance for the Alternate Payee and transfer the assigned
value or benefit from the Participant’s account into the Alternate Payee’s separate Account
Balance.
12.04 Rights of an Alternate Payee to Receive Distributions. The Alternate Payee is
entitled to receive distributions immediately upon the establishment of the separate Account
Balance pursuant to Section 10.03 Processing of a DRO. Commencement of distributions must
begin no later than April 1st following the year in which the Alternate Payee attains age 70 ½ (72
if you reach age 70 ½ after December 31, 2019). Distributions made to an Alternate Payee are
reported as taxable income to the Alternate Payee in the calendar year in which the distributions
are received by the Alternate Payee. State taxes, if applicable, and federal taxes will be withheld
from any distribution on the Alternate Payee’s Account Balance based upon the tax withholding
elections of the Alternate Payee. The Alternate Payee may not make any contributions to the
account but is permitted to designate Beneficiaries for the Account Balance and to exercise
exchanges among the investment options as permitted by the Plan.
12.05 No Liability for Prior Distributions. In the event that it is determined that a
DRO is valid and the Participant has begun receiving distributions from the Plan, the Alternate
Payee must commence distribution within sixty (60) days following the date the DRO is
determined to be valid. The Administrator shall only process a DRO to the extent possible based
upon the then current value or benefit in the Participant’s Account Balance.

or $100,000. The Program Administrator may rely on the Participant’s certification that the

such distribution in one or more contributions to the Plan or to a deem ed IRA established with
this Plan within three years of the Distribution. Such repayment shall be treated for tax purposes
as a Direct Rollover.
13.02. Payment Options. The election of a payment option by a Participant or a
Beneficiary under Section 12.1 must be made no later than thirty (30) days before the
commencement of such benefits. Subject to restrictions established by the Program
Administrator, the Plan shall permit payout options in the form of lump sums, periodic payments
of a fixed amount or fixed duration, or life contingent annuities. Absent such an election, the
Account will be paid in a lump sum. If at the time the payment of a participant or beneficiary’s
vested accumulated account balance (including that portion of the balance attributable to rollover
contributions and earnings) is $1,000 or less, the vested balance shall be paid to the participant or
beneficiary in a lump sum as soon as administratively possible on or after the date the benefit is
otherwise payable, unless the participant or beneficiary elects to have the account balance rolled
over to an eligible retirement plan or remain in the plan subject to restrictions established by the
Program Administrator. See Article XV for rollover distribution options.

this Plan and discharge in full its obligations under Plan to all Participants or all Participant’s

SUMMARY: This amendment adds additional services to include design, survey and legal
descriptions, and assistance during construction.
The original project scope of services for this stormwater project did not include the design of
significant roadway improvements on Robin and Eagle Avenues. In the early stages of design, it
became apparent that given the scope of impacts to the roads, both roads would benefit from
improvements with this project. This amendment will add a complete roadway design for Eagle and
close a sidewalk gap on Robin including adding new ADA ramps. This amendment also includes
scope for preparing additional required easements, and construction support services. The original
contract amount was $419,920 with Contract Modification No. 1 increasing the contract amount by
$50,480 for additional survey and design support. This Contract Modification No. 2 increases the
contract amount by $161,782, resulting in a revised contract amount of $632,182.
ATTACHMENTS: 1. Contract Modification Agreement No. 2, 2. Vicinity Map
FISCAL IMPACTS (Include Budgeted Amount): This increase in the contract amount is included
in the approved 2022 project budget and is funded by both the Stormwater Fund and the
Transportation Projects Fund.

SCOPE OF WORK
City of Bremerton
Decommission Beach Sewer OF-4 to EB-2
PROJECT BACKGROUND
This project will protect Sinclair Inlet and the Port Washington Narrows by decommissioning an existing gravity
beach sewer located within the tidelands of the Port Washington Narrows. This project also includes the
installation of small municipal pump stations, individual grinder pump systems, and the low-pressure sewer (LPS)
mains and force mains required to redirect flow from individual waterfront properties away from the beach sewer
to an existing upland sewer system.
The proposed project will eliminate approximately 1,900 feet of gravity sewer, 13 side sewers (laterals), and
5 manholes, all buried along the beach. The section of sewer main to be decommissioned is located along the
shoreline immediately north of the Manette Bridge, starting at Sewage Pump Station EB-2 and ending at
Combined Sewer Outfall No. 4 (OF-4). The overall goal of the project is to eliminate gravity sewer infrastructure in
marine tidelands that is difficult to maintain and potentially deleterious to the marine environment.
This project is funded by a Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) Loan for $2,300,000 from the Washington
State Department of Ecology (Ecology) that expires on December 31, 2022.

are considered unclassified spaces per NFPA 820.
Residential grinder pump stations with a total flow of more than 1500 gallons per day are considered
Class I, Division I, Group D per NFPA 820.
For stations using existing electrical panels, the City shall be responsible through their Electrical
Contractor to perform load calculations of each electrical service to ensure the service equipment has
capacity to support the new grinder pump equipment. Parametrix shall not provide electrical calculations
for the existing electrical services. City and Electrical Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold
harmless Parametrix, Parametrix’s officers, directors, partners, employees, and any individuals from and
against any and all costs, losses, and damages caused by breaches of this Agreement by the City or their
Electrical contractor.
Electrical specifications will be in CSI format.
Grinder pump stations with generator receptacle operate a maximum of two 1 horsepower pumps.
For multifamily residential sites, this scope of work is limited to adding design related to new electrical
service and portable generator connections with transfer switches and telemetry integral with the
manufacturer’s pump control panel. The scope of work does not include permanent generators, design
telemetry or integration into existing system.
Drawings developed under this subtask will be limited to eight additional electrical drawings, including
one general sheet; five electrical station plans with site plan, electrical one-line, and load calculations; as
well as two electrical detail sheets, as described in Attachment 1.
The grinder pump station manufacturer’s control panel will include the “Sentry Advisor” package that the
City will use for telemetry communication. The stations will be packaged systems without custom control
design and construction. No programming, telemetry, or SCADA support will be provided.
The grinder pump station manufacturer’s pump control panel will include a portable generator
connection and the equipment necessary to transfer load over to the portable generator.
The City, with help from the Electrical Contractor, will use electrical calculations provided in the contract
drawings to coordinate with the Electrical Utility for the new electrical services.
Engineering support for coordination with the Electrical Utility is not included in this scope of work.
Electrical specifications will be in CSI format and will be limited to a maximum of 12 specification sections.
Deliverables
Eight electrical drawings to be included with other design deliverables under Tasks 3 and 4.
Electrical design elements developed under this subtask will be incorporated as appropriate into the
other design deliverables described in Tasks 3 and 4.

ORDINANCE NO. ________
AN ORDINANCE of the City Council of the City of
Bremerton, Washington, amending Chapter 17.60 of the Bremerton
Municipal Code entitled “Floodplain Management.”
WHEREAS, the current provisions of Chapter 17.60 of the Bremerton Municipal
Code relating to floodplain management are outdated and no longer comply with state and
federal floodplain management requirements; and
WHEREAS, the current provisions of Chapter 17.60 of the Bremerton Municipal
Code relating to floodplain management contain definitions and provisions that are inapplicable
to the City of Bremerton; and
WHEREAS, the City Council desires to amend Chapter 17.60 of the Bremerton
Municipal Code relating to floodplain management in order to comply with state and federal
floodplain management requirements and to remove inapplicable definitions and provisions;
NOW THEREFORE,
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BREMERTON, WASHINGTON,
DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Chapter 17.60 of the Bremerton Municipal Code entitled
"Floodplain Management" is hereby amended to read as follows:
Chapter 17.60
FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT
17.60.010 STATUTORY AUTHORIZATION.
The City of Bremerton has the legal authority and responsibility to adopt regulations
designed to promote the public health and general welfare of its citizenry pursuant to Article XI,
Sections 10 and 11 of the Washington State Constitution and Article III of the Bremerton City
Charter.
17.60.020 FINDINGS OF FACT.
(a)The flood hazard areas of the City are subject to periodic inundation which results
in loss of life and property, health and safety hazards, disruption of commerce and governmental
services, extraordinary public expenditures for flood protection and relief, and impairment of the
tax base, all of which adversely affect the public health, safety and general welfare.
(b) These flood losses are caused by the cumulative effect of obstructions in areas of
special flood hazards which increase flood heights and velocities, and when inadequately
anchored, damage uses in other areas. Uses that are inadequately floodproofed, elevated or
otherwise protected from flood damage also contribute to the flood loss.

City Ordinance Form BMC Chapter 17.60
Rev. 09/2021 Floodplain Management
17.60.030 STATEMENT OF PURPOSE.
It is the purpose of this chapter to promote the public health, safety and general welfare,
and to minimize public and private losses due to flood conditions in specific areas by provisions
designed:
(a) To protect human life and health;
(b) To minimize expenditure of public money and costly flood control projects;
(c) To minimize the need for rescue and relief effort associated with flooding and
generally undertaken at the expense of the general public;
(d) To minimize prolonged business interruptions;
(e) To minimize damage to public facilities and utilities such as water and gas mains;
electric, telephone and sewer lines; streets and bridges located in areas of special flood hazard;
(f) To help maintain a stable tax base by providing for the sound use and
development of areas of special flood hazard so as to minimize blight resulting from future
flood;
(g) To ensure that potential buyers are notified that property is in an area of special
flood hazard; and
(h) To ensure that those who occupy the areas of special flood hazard assume
responsibility for their actions.
17.60.040 METHODS OF REDUCING FLOOD LOSSES.
In order to accomplish its purposes, this chapter includes methods and provisions:
(a) Restricting or prohibiting uses which are dangerous to health, safety and property
due to water or erosion hazards or in flood heights or velocities;
(b) Requiring that uses vulnerable to floods, including facilities which serve such
uses, be protected against flood damage at the time of initial construction;
(c) Controlling the alteration of natural floodplains, stream channels, and natural
protective barriers, which help accommodate or channel floodwaters;
(d) Controlling filling, grading, dredging and other development which may increase
flood damage; and
(e) Preventing or regulating the construction of flood barriers which will unnaturally
divert floodwaters or which may increase flood hazards in other areas.
17.60.050 DEFINITIONS.
Unless specifically defined below, words or phrases used in this chapter shall be
interpreted so as to give them the meaning they have in common usage and to give this chapter
its most reasonable application.
“Alteration of watercourse” means any action that will change the location of the channel
occupied by water within the banks of any portion of a riverine waterbody.
"Appeal" means a request for a review of the City Engineer’s interpretation of any
provision of this chapter or a request for a variance.
"Area of shallow flooding" means a designated AO or AH zone on the Flood Insurance
Rate Map (FIRM). The base flood depths range from one (1) to three (3) feet; a clearly defined
channel does not exist; the path of flooding is unpredictable and indeterminate; and velocity flow
may be evident. AO is characterized as sheet flow and AH indicates ponding.
"Area of special flood hazard" means the land in the floodplain within a community
subject to a one (1) percent or greater chance of flooding in any given year. It is shown on the
Page 3 of 18
City Ordinance Form BMC Chapter 17.60
Rev. 09/2021 Floodplain Management
Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) as zone A, AO, AH, A1-30, AE, A99, AR (V, VO, V1-30,
VE). “Special flood hazard area” is synonymous in meaning with the phrase “area of special
flood hazard”.
“ASCE 24” means the most recently published version of ASCE 24, Flood Resistant
Design and Construction, published by the American Society of Civil Engineers.
"Base flood" means the flood having a one (1) percent chance of being equaled or
exceeded in any given year (also referred to as the “100-year flood”).
"Base flood elevation" or “BFE” means the elevation to which floodwater is anticipated
to rise during the base floodmeans the water surface elevation corresponding to a flood having a
one (1) percent probability of being equaled or exceeded in a given year.
"Basement" means any area of the building having its floor subgrade (below ground
level) on all sides.
“Building”: See "Structure."
“Building Code” means the currently effective versions of the International Building Code
and the International Residential Code adopted by the State of Washington Building Code Council.
"Breakaway wall" means a wall that is not part of the structural support of the building
and is intended through its design and construction to collapse under specific lateral loading
forces, without causing damage to the elevated portion of the building or supporting foundation
system.
"Coastal high hazard area" means an area of special flood hazard extending from offshore
to the inland limit of a primary frontal dune along an open coast and any other area subject to
high velocity wave action from storms or seismic sources. The area is designated on the FIRM as
Zone V1-30, VE or V.

City Ordinance Form BMC Chapter 17.60
Rev. 09/2021 Floodplain Management
17.60.190 VARIANCE - LOTS OF ONE-HALF (0.5) ACRE.
Generally, variances may be issued for new construction and substantial improvements to
be erected on a lot of one-half (0.5) acre or less in size contiguous and surrounded by lots with
existing structures constructed below the base flood level, providing BMC 17.60.180(a) through
(k) have been fully considered. As the lot size increases beyond the one-half (0.5) acre, the
technical justification required for issuing the variance increases.
17.60.200 VARIANCE - COUNCIL AUTHORITY TO ATTACH
CONDITIONS.
Upon consideration of the factors of BMC 17.60.180 and the purposes of this chapter, the
City Council may attach such conditions to the granting of variances as it deems necessary to
further the purposes of this chapter.
17.60.210 VARIANCE - RECORDS AND REPORTS.
The City Engineer shall maintain the records of all appeal actions and report any
variances to the Federal Insurance Administration upon request.
17.60.220 VARIANCE - CONDITIONS GENERALLY.
(a) Variances may be issued for the reconstruction, rehabilitation or restoration of
structures listed on the National Register of Historic Places or the State Inventory of Historic
Places that will not preclude the structure’s continued designation as a historic structure and the
variance is the minimum necessary to preserve the historic character and design of the structure
without regard to the procedures set forth in the remainder of this section.
(b) Variances shall not be issued within any designated floodway if any increase in
flood levels during the base flood discharge would result.
(c) Variances shall only be issued upon a determination that the variance is the
minimum necessary, considering the flood hazard, to afford relief.
(d) Variances shall only be issued upon:
(1) A showing of good and sufficient cause;
(2) A determination that failure to grant the variance would result in
exceptional hardship to the applicant; and
(3) A determination that the granting of a variance will not result in increased
flood heights, additional threats to public safety, extraordinary public expense, create nuisances,
cause fraud on or victimization of the public as identified in BMC 17.60.180, or conflict with
existing local laws or ordinances.
(e) Any applicant to whom a variance is granted shall be given written notice that the
structure will be permitted to be built with a lowest floor elevation below the base flood
elevation and that the cost of flood insurance will be commensurate with the increased risk
resulting from the reduced lowest floor elevation.
(f) Variances as interpreted in the National Flood Insurance Program are based on the
general zoning law principle that they pertain to a physical piece of property; they are not
personal in nature and do not pertain to the structure, its inhabitants, or economic or financial
circumstances.
They primarily address small lots in densely populated residential neighborhoods. As
such, variances from the flood elevations should be quite rare.
(g) Variances may be issued for nonresidential buildings in very limited
circumstances to allow a lesser degree of floodproofing than watertight or dry floodproofing,
Page 12 of 18
City Ordinance Form BMC Chapter 17.60
Rev. 09/2021 Floodplain Management
where it can be determined that such action will have low damage potential, complies with all
other variance criteria, except this section, and otherwise complies with BMC 17.60.240.

17.60.315 CRITICAL FACILITY.
Construction of new critical facilities shall be, to the extent possible, located outside the
limits of the special flood hazard area (SFHA) one hundred (100) year floodplain. Construction
of new critical facilities shall be permissible within the SFHA if no feasible alternative site is
available. Critical facilities constructed within the SFHA shall have the lowest floor elevated
three (3) feet above BFE or to the height of the five hundred (500) year flood, whichever is
higher. Access to and from the critical facility should also be protected to the height utilized
above. Floodproofing and sealing measures must be taken to ensure that toxic substances will not
be displaced by or released into the floodwaters. Access routes elevated to or above the level of
the base flood elevation shall be provided to all critical facilities to the extent possible.
17.60.320 MANUFACTURED/MOBILE HOMES.
All manufactured/mobile homes in the floodplain to be placed or substantially improved
on sites shall be elevated on a permanent foundation such that the lowest floor of the
manufactured/mobile home is elevated one (1) foot or more above the base flood elevation and
be securely anchored to an adequately anchored foundation system to resist flotation, collapse
and lateral movement.
17.60.325 RECREATIONAL VEHICLES.
Recreational vehicles placed on sites in the floodplain are required to either:
(a) Be on the site for fewer than one hundred eighty (180) consecutive days; or
(b) Be fully licensed and ready for highway use, on wheels or jacking system,
attached to the site only by quick disconnect type utilities and security devices, and have no
permanently attached additions; or
(c) Meet the requirements for manufactured/mobile homes as found in BMC
17.60.320.
17.60.330 FLOODWAYS.
Located within areas of special flood hazard established in BMC 17.60.070 are portions
of Gorst and Parish Creeks which are designated as floodways. Since the floodway is an
extremely hazardous area due to the velocity of floodwaters which carry debris, potential
projectiles, and erosion potential projectiles, and erosion potential, the following provisions
apply:
(a) Prohibit encroachments, including fill, new construction, substantial
improvements and other development unless certification by a registered professional engineer
or architect is provided demonstrating that encroachments shall not result in any increase in flood
levels during the occurrence of the base flood discharge;
Page 15 of 18
City Ordinance Form BMC Chapter 17.60
Rev. 09/2021 Floodplain Management
(b)If subsection (a) of this section is satisfied, all new construction and substantial
improvements shall comply with all applicable flood hazard reduction provisions of BMC
17.60.230 through 17.60.320;
(c) Construction or reconstruction of residential structures is prohibited within
designated floodways, except for:
(1)Repairs, reconstruction, or improvements to a structure which do not
increase the ground floor area; and
(2)Repairs, reconstruction or improvements to a structure, the cost of which
does not exceed fifty (50) percent of the market value of the structure either:
(i) Before the repair or reconstruction is started, or
(ii)If the structure has been damaged, and is being restored before the
damage occurred. Work done on structures to comply with existing health, sanitary, or safety
codes which have been identified by the Code Enforcement or Building Official and are the
minimum necessary to assure safe living conditions shall not be included in the fifty (50) percent
determination in subsection (c)(2) of this section;
(d)Manufactured/mobile homes are prohibited in designated floodways.
17.60.340 ZONES WITH BASE FLOOD ELEVATIONS BUT NO
FLOODWAYS.
In areas with base flood elevations (but a regulatory floodway has not been designated),
no new construction, substantial improvements, or other development (including fill) shall be
permitted within Zones A1-30 and AE on the community’s FIRM, unless it is demonstrated that
the cumulative effect of the proposed development, when combined with all other existing and
anticipated development, will not increase the water surface elevation of the base flood more
than one (1) foot at any point within the community.
17.60.350 COASTAL HIGH HAZARD AREAS.
Located within areas of special flood hazard established in BMC 17.60.070 are coastal
high hazard areas, designated as Zones V1-30, VE and/or V. These areas have special flood
hazards associated with high velocity waters from surges and, therefore, in addition to meeting
all provisions in this chapter, the following provisions shall also apply:
(a)All new construction and substantial improvements in Zones V1-30 and VE (V if
base flood elevation data is available) on the community’s FIRM shall be elevated on pilings and
columns so that:
(1) The bottom of the lowest horizontal structural member of the lowest floor
(excluding the pilings or columns) is elevated one (1) foot or more above the base flood level;
and
(2)The pile or column foundation and structure attached thereto is anchored
to resist flotation, collapse and lateral movement due to the effects of wind and water loads
acting simultaneously on all building components. Wind and water loading values shall each
have a one (1) percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year (one hundred
(100) year mean recurrence interval).
A registered professional engineer or architect shall develop or review the structural
design, specifications and plans for the construction, and shall certify that the design and
methods of construction to be used are in accordance with accepted standards of practice for
meeting the provisions of subsections (a)(1) and (2) of this section.
Page 16 of 18
City Ordinance Form BMC Chapter 17.60
Rev. 09/2021 Floodplain Management
(b) Obtain the elevation (in relation to mean sea level) of the bottom of the lowest
structural member of the lowest floor (excluding pilings and columns) of all new and
substantially improved structures in Zones V1-30, VE, and V on the community’s FIRM and
whether or not such structures contain a basement. The local administrator shall maintain a
record of all such information.
(c) All new construction within Zones V1-30, VE, and V on the community’s FIRM
shall be located landward of the reach of mean high tide.
(d) Provide that all new construction and substantial improvements within Zones V1-
30, VE, and V on the community’s FIRM have the space below the lowest floor either free of
obstruction or constructed with nonsupporting breakaway walls, open wood lattice-work, or
insect screening intended to collapse under wind and water loads without causing collapse,
displacement, or other structural damage to the elevated portion of the building or supporting
foundation system. For the purposes of this section, a breakaway wall shall have a design safe
loading resistance of not less than ten (10) and no more than twenty (20) pounds per square foot.
Use of breakaway walls which exceed a design safe loading resistance of twenty (20) pounds per
square foot (either by design or when so required by local or state codes) may be permitted only
if a registered professional engineer or architect certifies that the design proposed meets the
following conditions:
(1) Breakaway wall collapse shall result from water load less than that which
would occur during the base flood; and
(2) The elevated portion of the building and supporting foundation system
shall not be subject to collapse, displacement, or other structural damage due to the effects of
wind and water loads acting simultaneously on all building components (structural and
nonstructural). Maximum wind and water loading values to be used in this determination shall
each have a one (1) percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year (one hundred
(100) year mean recurrence interval).
If breakaway walls are utilized, such enclosed space shall be usable solely for parking of
vehicles, building access, or storage. Such space shall not be used for human habitation.
(e) Prohibit the use of fill for structural support of buildings within Zones V1-30, VE,
and V on the community’s FIRM.
(f) Prohibit manmade alteration of sand dunes within Zones V1-30, VE, and V on the
community’s FIRM which would increase potential flood damage.
(g) All manufactured homes to be placed or substantially improved within Zones V1-
30, V, and VE on the community’s FIRM on sites:
(1) Outside of a manufactured home park or subdivision;
(2) In a new manufactured home park or subdivision;
(3) In an expansion to an existing manufactured home park or subdivision; or
(4) In an existing manufactured home park or subdivision on which a
manufactured home has incurred "substantial damage" as the result of a flood;
shall meet the standards of subsections (a) through (f) of this section, and manufactured
homes placed or substantially improved on other sites in an existing manufactured home park or
subdivision within Zones V1-30, V and VE on the FIRM shall meet the requirements of BMC
17.60.320.
(h) Recreational vehicles placed on sites within Zones V1-30, V and VE on the
community’s FIRM shall either:
Page 17 of 18

system, attached to the site only by quick disconnect type utilities and security devices, and have
no permanently attached additions; or
(3) Meet the requirements of BMC 17.60.120 (development permit required)
and subsections (a) through (f) of this section.

AGENDA BILL
CITY OF BREMERTON
CITY COUNCIL
SUBJECT: Study Session Date: December 8, 2021
Resolution No. 3343 ratifying the 2021
Amendments to the Kitsap Countywide
Planning Policies
COUNCIL MEETING Date: December 15, 2021
Department: DCD
Presenter: Andrea L. Spencer
Phone: (360) 473-5283
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 (GMA). The CPP’s were originally adopted and ratified by all Kitsap County local
governments in 1992, and they have been amended several times since then. Between September
2020 and May 2021 the Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council (KRCC) and each of the Planning
Directors in Kitsap began work to update and amend the CPP’s to make them consistent with the
Puget Sound Reginal Council’s Vision 2050 Multi-County Planning Policies. Following a public
hearing on July 6, 2021 the KRCC Board recommended policy revisions, and forwarded the revised
CPP’s to Kitsap County for adoption. The Kitsap Board of County Commissioners passed Ordinance
No. 601-2021 (dated October 11, 2021) adopting the revised CPP’s as recommended by the KRCC
Board. This Ordinance will not take effect until at least three cities ratify the amendments.
City Council ratification of the amendments is requested to be compliant with the procedures outlined
in the CPP’s, (please see Appendix A of the CPP’s which outlines that ratification must occur within
90 days of the ordinance passage by Kitsap County). Note that consideration of this Resolution is a
“housekeeping” measure and the Council cannot make changes to the County-adopted CPP’s. If
changes are desired then ratification needs to be rejected and a request made to the KRCC Board
for consideration of any potential modification(s) to the CPP’s.

Countywide Planning Policies address 14 separate elements, ranging from urban
growth areas to affordable housing.
The Countywide Planning Policies are required by the Growth Management Act
and may be appealed (only) by Cities and the Governor of Washington. The
original Kitsap Countywide Planning Policies (adopted by Kitsap County in 1992)
and subsequent revisions (August 2001, December 2003, November 2004,
November 2007, November 2011, November 2013, and May 2015, and X 2021) were

Coordinating Council among: Kitsap County, the Cities of Bremerton, Ba inbridge Island,
Port Orchard & Poulsbo, the Suquamish & Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribes, the Navy, the
Port of Bremerton, and Kitsap Transit.

INTRODUCTION (UR)
The Growth Management Act (GMA) is founded on the principle that it is in the best interest of the
citizens of the State to foster coordination and cooperation among units of local and state government.
Cities and counties must engage in a collaborative planning process under the requirements of the Act.
Specifically, the Act states that, "THE LEGISLATURE FINDS THAT UNCOORDINATED AND UNPLANNED
GROWTH ... POSE A THREAT TO THE ENVIRONMENT, SUSTAINABLE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, AND THE
HEALTH, SAFETY, AND HIGH QUALITY OF LIFE ENJOYED BY RESIDENTS OF THE STATE. IT IS IN THE PUBLIC
INTEREST THAT CITIZENS, COMMUNITIES, LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, AND THE PRIVATE SECTOR COOPERATE AND
COORDINATE WITH ONE ANOTHER IN COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLANNING." To guide the development of
Comprehensive Plans and development regulations, the GMA sets forth planning goals (RCW
36.70A.020) in 13 areas:
1. Urban Growth 8. Natural Resource Industries
2. Reduce Sprawl 9. Open Space and Recreation
3. Transportation 10. Environment
4. Housing
5. Economic
Development
6. Property Rights
7. Permits
11. Citizen Participation and
Coordination
12. Public Facilities and Services
13. Historic Presentation
The Growth Management Act (RCW 36.70A.210) states that “A COUNTYWIDE PLANNING POLICY IS A
WRITTEN POLICY STATEMENT OR STATEMENTS USED SOLELY FOR ESTABLISHING A COUNTYWIDE FRAMEWORK
FROM WHICH COUNTY AND CITY COMPREHENSIVE PLANS ARE DEVELOPED AND ADOPTED … (TO) ENSURE
THAT CITY AND COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE PLANS ARE CONSISTENT…”as required in RCW 36.70A.100.
“NOTHING IN THIS DOCUMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED TO ALTER THE LAND USE POWERS OF CITIES.” The
Act requires that the countywide policy be collaboratively developed among Cities and the County.
Further, “FEDERAL AGENCIES AND INDIAN TRIBES MAY PARTICIPATE IN AND COOPERATE WITH THE
COUNTYWIDE PLANNING POLICY ADOPTION PROCESS.” These policies may also be used for other purposes
requiring collaboration and cooperation in addition to the development and adoption of comprehensive
plans.
Vision 2040 2050 (adopted by the Puget Sound Regional Council during 2010 on October 29, 2020)
serves as the long-range growth management, environmental, economic development, and
transportation strategy for King, Kitsap, Pierce, and Snohomish Counties. Vision 2040 2050 includes
the Regional Growth Strategy, Multi-County Planning Policies (RCW 36.70A.210) and
Iimplementation Aactions.
The 1992 Kitsap Countywide Planning Policies and subsequent revisions in 2001, 2003, 2007, 2011,
2013, and 2015, and 2021, were developed by a committee of planners and public works officials
representing Kitsap County, the City of Bremerton, the City of Port Orchard, the City of Poulsbo, the
City of Bainbridge Island, the Port Gamble S'Klallam Tribe, the Suquamish Tribe, the Navy, and
Kitsap Transit. At each point, tThe Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council conducted a public hearing
and prepared a recommendation for adoption by the Kitsap County Board of Commissioners and
ratification by Cities and Tribes. The process of review and discussion through the Kitsap Regional
Coordinating Council forum is intended to foster consensus whenever possible. County and City
Comprehensive Plans must shall be consistent with the adopted Countywide Planning Policies.
1 The Kitsap County Health District and Kitsap Economic Development Alliance (KEDA) also reviewed and commented
upon the 2011 amendment proposals.

Kitsap Countywide Planning Policies Vision Statement
The Kitsap Countywide vision continues the qualities of life that make our County a welcoming
place to live and work for all in Kitsap. We strive to protect our natural systems; preserve the
character of our smaller communities; respect community and Tribal histories; create an economy
that supports all and contributes to equitable places, efficient transportation, accessible broadband,
and affordable housing choices.
Objectives:
We work on strategies to achieve the following objectives:
a. Livable urban communities, that are centers for employment, civic activities, and homes:
• Attractive, livable urban neighborhoods that are bike/pedestrian -friendly and offer a range
of services, housing, and transportation options.
• Cities that are centers for employment, affordable housing, and cultural activities.
b. A vital and diversified economy, that provides career pathways and living wage jobs for
residents, supported by adequate buildable lands for a range of employment uses.
c. An efficient multi-modal transportation system: Accessible roads and highways, transit, ferries,
airports, and nonmotorized travel – supporting our land use pattern while providing mobility for
residents.
d. Natural systems protection: Respect the natural environment, including natural resource lands
such as forests, wetlands, wildlife habitat, streams, and the Puget Sound – as well as the quality of
our waters, land, and air. In addition, maintain a system of open space, trails, parks, and greenbelts
providing opportunities to spend time outdoors and to learn about the environment.
e. Rural Character: Maintain the traditional appearance, economic and ecological functions of
Kitsap’s rural communities, to include the production and distribution of locally grown food.
f. An Efficient and Responsive Government: An efficient and responsive government that partners
with citizens and other governmental entities to meet collective needs fairly; while supporting
education, environmental protection, and human services.
Action:
A key strategy to accomplish this vision is the intent to encourage future urban growth within
incorporated cities and unincorporated areas already characterized by urban growth, with existing
and planned services and facilities. These actions strengthen our env ironmental and rural assets,
focus public expenditures, and encourage concentrated development where appropriate.
How to read the Countywide Planning Policies
The policies within the Countywide Planning Policies (CPPs) have equal importance, and each one should
be understood in the context of the entire document. The CPPs specify how directive a policy should be.
Many of the policies utilize one of three different words to do this; shall, should, and may and are defined as
follows:
• “Shall” means implementation of the policy is mandatory and imparts a higher degree of
substantive direction than “should”. “Shall” is used for policies that repeat State of Washington
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance X 522-2015
X, 2021May 11, 2015 5
requirements or where the intent is to mandate action. However, “shall” cannot be used wh en it is
largely a subjective determination whether a policy’s objective has been met.
• “Should” means implementation of the policy is expected but its completion is not mandatory.
The policy is directive with substantive meaning, although to a lesser deg ree than “shall” for two
reasons. (1) “Should” policies recognize the policy might not be applicable or appropriate for all
municipalities due to special circumstances. The decision to not implement a “should” policy is
appropriate only if implementation of the policy is either inappropriate or not feasible. (2) Some
“should” policies are subjective; hence, it is not possible to demonstrate that a jurisdiction has
implemented it.
• “May” means the actions described in the policy are either advisable or are allowed. “May” gives
permission and implies a preference. Because “may” does not have a directive meaning, there is no
expectation the described action will be implemented .
Policies for Update and Ratification (UR):
1. UR-1 The Kitsap Countywide Planning Policies should be dynamic and regularly monitored for
applicability and effectiveness.
a. The adopted Countywide Planning Policies should be reviewed through the Kitsap Regional
Coordinating Council process prior to each required comprehensive plan update as required by
RCW 36.70A.130 at least every five years. Proposed Policy revisions shall be reviewed for
impacts according to the State Environmental Protection Policy Act (SEPA), consistency with
PSRCs Multicounty Planning Policies (MPPs), and shall be consistent with the State Growth
Management Act (GMA).
b. The County or a City may propose a policy amendment to the Countywide Planning Policies.
2. UR-2 Proposed amendments should be considered on a regular basis and voting is subject to the
Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council by-laws. The ratification process is outlined in Appendix A
and includes, but is not limited, to the following steps.
a. Kitsap County shall take action to consider and adopt amendments or revisions to the
Countywide Planning Policies following recommendation from the Kitsap Regional
Coordinating Council.
b. The Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council will strive for ratification by all Cities and Tribes
during the 90 days following the Board of County Commissioners’ adoption of its subject
ordinance. The adopted CPP will become effective upon ratification by three or more cities in
Kitsap County.
c. A City or Tribal Council that does not ratify the revised Countywide Planning Policies within
90 days of the Board of County Commissioners’ adoption of its subject ordinance shall provide
a written statement of its objections to the Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council, in order to
facilitate further review. (See Appendix A for process flow chart).
d. Once the ratified revisions to the Countywide Planning Policies take effect, a City or the
Governor’s office may appeal the revisions to the Growth Management Hearings Board within
a further 60 day period.

Element A. Countywide Growth Pattern (CW)
The vision for the future of Kitsap County, “seeks to maintain and enhance the quality of life that
makes our County a special place to live and work. eEnvision a future in which our natural systems
are protected; the water quality in our lakes, streams and Puget Sound is are enhanced; the village
character of some of our smaller towns is preserved; the historical nature of our communities is
respected in order to preserve our heritage for future generations; a diversified economic base that
supports good jobs, contributes to healthy downtowns in our Cities and affordable housing choices;
the rural appearance of our county is perpetuated.
This vision of the future, shared by citizens and elected officials, includes the following elements:
a. Livable urban communities and neighborhoods, centers for employment, civic activities,
housing:
• Attractive, well designed, bike/pedestrian -friendly and livable urban communities, enhanced
by preserved historic properties and neighborhoods, that are supported by efficient and high-
quality services and facilities, and provide a range of housing choices.
• Healthy cities that are the region’s centers for employment, affordable housing choices, and
civic and cultural activities.
b. Vital diversified economy: An economy that provides training, education, and living wage jobs
for residents, supported by adequate buildable land for a range of employment uses and that
encourages accomplishment of local economic development goals as articulated in the Kitsap
Economic Development Alliance’s adopted plan, Kitsap 20/20: A Strategy for Sustainable
Economic Prosperity.
c. Efficient multi-modal transportation system: Creation of an efficient, clean, and sustainable
multi- modal transportation system – including roads and highways, public transportation,
ferries, airports, and opportunities for non-motorized travel – that provides efficient access and
mobility for county residents, and supports our land use pattern.
d. Natural systems protection:
• Protection and enhancement of the natural environment, including wetlands, streams,
wildlife habitat, shorelines, water quality, air, climate, and natural resource lands.
• Creation of a system of open space, trails, parks, and greenbelts that provide opportunities for
recreation and that give structure and separation to urban areas
e. Rural character: Maintenance of the traditional character, appearance, economic and
ecological functions, and lifestyles of Kitsap County’s rural communities and areas to include
the production and distribution of locally grown food.
f. Responsive Government: An efficient and responsive government that works in partnership
with citizens, governmental entities and Tribes to meet collective needs fairly; and that
supports education, environmental protection and human services.
A key strategy to accomplish this vision is the intention to encourage future urban growth in areas
within incorporated cities and in unincorporated areas that are already characterized by urban
growth with existing and planned services and facilities. These actions will work to strengthen our
natural environment and rural character, and are geared to reduce taxpayer costs by focusing the
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance X 522-2015
X, 2021May 11, 2015 8
expenditure of public funds, encouraging concentrated development where appropriate, and
increasing our choices for housing and jobs.”
Balancing historical patterns of growth with a preferred vision of the future and legal requirements
is an on-going challenge. Tradeoffs must be made to balance the costs with the gains; flexibility is
necessary to adapt to changing conditions. These policies are intended to reflect the long -term goals
of the people living, working and doing business here.
The policies in this chapter are focused on the important role of both urban and rural areas in
Kitsap County as growth occurs. In addition, the policies outline how the KRCC member
jurisdictions will work together to achieve common goals regarding the countywide growth patte rn.
Policies for Countywide Growth Pattern (CW):
1. CW-1 Roles of Cities and unincorporated Urban Growth Areas/Urban Communities (UGAs)
a. The primary role of Kitsap’s urban communities cities and unincorporated UGAs is to
encourage growth, through new development, re-development and in-fill. (See Appendix B
for current and projected population distribution.) Population growth should be directed to
Cities, urban growth areas and centers with a transportation system that connects people
with jobs and housing.
b. Each of Kitsap’s urban communities cities and unincorporated UGAs should maintain and
enhance foster its unique vision as a high quality place to live and work, through urban
design, historic preservation, and arts that improve the natural and human -made
environments; promote healthy lifestyles; contribute to a prosperous economy; and, increase
the region’s resiliency in adapting to changes or adverse events.
c. For unincorporated UGAs, support annexation or incorporation into cities.
c. In Kitsap, urban communities are closely linked to water and natural amenities and provide
open space links to the natural environment.
2. CW-2 Roles of Kitsap County of rural and resource lands:
a. Keep regional vision in mind when making local decisions.
b. Promote stewardship of unincorporated urban areas and promote annexation into cities or
incorporation.
c. Maintain/enhance natural systems and rural character.
d. Include a variety of low-density rural communities centers, densities, and uses.
3. CW-3 To achieve these goals, t The Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council member jurisdictions
should:
a. Make decisions together when needed.
b. Coordinate and cooperate on land use policy, capital planning, infrastructure development,
environmental issues, and cultural resource management/planning.
c. Establish and keep updated a Buildable Land Analysis Program. Work together to meet
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance X 522-2015
X, 2021May 11, 2015 9
Buildable Lands program requirements in RCW 36.70A.215
d. Develop a program for the Transfer of Development Rights to preserve lands with
important public benefits.
e. Maintain/preserve distinct urban identities with green breaks, open space, or other natural
features.
f. Promote tiering and/or phasing of infrastructure development within Urban Growth Areas.
g. Develop and implement land use policies, regulations, and incentives to promote the
efficient use of urban areas.
h. Incorporate provisions addressing community health , equity, and displacement into
appropriate regional, countywide, and local plansning and decision-making processes.

Element B. Urban Growth Areas (UGA)
The basic premise for designating Urban Growth Areas is to encourage the location of urban density
residential, commercial and industrial developments in areas where services can be most economically
provided. The benefits of directing growth to designated urban areas include:
• Higher density residential development within walking
or bicycling distance of jobs, transit, schools and parks.
• Maximizing benefits of transportation and infrastructure
investments.
• Limiting urban expansion into rural and forested areas
resource lands.
• 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 growth in a
concentrated pattern.
• More economical provision and maintenance of streets,
sewer/water lines and other public facilities.
• Promotion of attractive residential neighborhoods and
commercial districts which provide a sense of
community.
• A harmonious relationship with regional planning as
articulated by Vision 2040 2050 and Transportation
2040, adopted by the Puget Sound Regional Council as
the growth and transportation strategy for central Puget
Sound.
The policies in this chapter are focused on Urban Growth
Areas (UGAs) and limited circumstances when urban
growth may take place outside of urban growth areas. This
includes policies directing how the county and cities work
together on Buildable Lands and Land Capacity efforts,
the distribution of projected population and employment
growth prior to updating comprehensive plans and the
process, and criteria for expanding a UGA. Element B
also outlines how the county and cities coordinate growth
within unincorporated UGAs prior to land being annexed
into cities, and policies focused on coordination for
National Historic Towns and both Fully Contained
Communities and Master Planned Resorts.
Policies for Urban Growth Areas (UGA):
1. UGA-1 Land Utilization Capacity (RCW 36.70A.115) & Monitoring Programs Review and
Evaluation Program (Buildable Lands – RCW 36.70A.215):
Consistent with RCW 36.70A.115, the County and Cities shall ensure that, taken collectively,
adoption of and amendments to their comprehensive plans and/or development regulations
provide sufficient capacity of land suitable for development within their jurisdictions to
Background: The Growth Management
Act was amended in 1997 requiring
Kitsap County and Cities to monitor
countywide development activities in five-
year intervals in order to test their
Comprehensive Plans’ growth and land
absorption assumptions.
Two different analyses are used: (1) The
Land Capacity Analysis, first conducted
by Kitsap County in 2002, estimates the
existing land supply based on a set of
defined assumptions, e.g. market factor,
speed of land absorption, critical areas
exclusions, etc. It uses a consistent,
agreed- upon methodology, with
allowance for documented variations for
individual jurisdiction’s conditions. (2)
The Buildable Land Analysis (as required
by the State GMA) uses recorded permit
activity to track and monitor residential,
commercial, and industrial growth. It will
be updated throughout Kitsap County in
2007. It is an adaptive management tool
for comparing development assumptions,
targets, and objectives with actual
development. If inconsistencies are found,
the County and Cities must then
implement reasonable measures, other
than adjusting Urban Growth Areas, that
will be taken in order to comply with the
GMA. The following countywide
planning policies relate to this regional
program to monitor the buildable land
supply for future growth as forecasted by
the State and distributed through the
Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance X 522-2015
X May 11, 202115 13
accommodate their housing and employment growth (derived from population distribution), as
adopted in the applicable Countywide Planning Policies and consistent with the 20-year
population forecast from the WA Office of Financial Management and Vision 2040 guidance.
(Implements Multi-County Planning Policy DP-Action-15).
a. The County and the Cities shall maintain a Land Capacity Analysis Program using a
consistent, agreed-upon methodology to estimate the land supply available to accommodate
future residential, commercial, and industrial growth.
b. The County and the Cities shall participate and work together to meet the Buildable Lands
program requirements in order in an agreed-upon Buildable Lands Analysis Program to
monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of their respective Comprehensive Plans.
c. The County and Cities shall establish procedures for resolving disputes in collection and
analysis of Land Capacity and Buildable Lands data. In the event a resolution cannot be
achieved, the Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council shall be a forum to review and if
possible, facilitate any disputes between parties.
2. UGA-2 Each jurisdiction is responsible for implementing appropriate reasonable measures
within its jurisdictional boundaries. If the Buildable Lands Aanalysis shows that a jurisdiction’s
Comprehensive Plan growth goals are not being met, that jurisdiction shall consider
implementing additional reasonable measures to reduce the differences between growth and
development assumptions and targets and actual development patterns. in order to use its
designated urban land more efficiently. Each jurisdiction is responsible for implementing
appropriate reasonable measures within its jurisdictional boundaries.
3. UGA-3 Process and criteria for to ensure regional coordination when establishing, expanding,
and adjusting Urban Growth Areas in Kitsap County:
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” (RCW 36.70A.110(1)) except
under specific circumstances, as fully contained communities and master planned resorts as
authorized by the Growth Management Act.
b. Unincorporated Urban Growth Areas shall be associated with an existing or future city.
c. All Urban Growth Areas shall be reflected in County and respective City comprehensive
plans.
d. Sufficient area/capacity must be included in the Urban Growth Areas to accommodate the
adopted 20-year population distribution and countywide employment as adopted by the
Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council and consistent with WA Office of Financial
Management projections.
e. A jurisdiction may define growth tiers within its Urban Growth Area (RCW 36.70A.110.3)
tTo focus public and/or private investment where growth is desired , a jurisdiction may phase
growth within its Urban Growth Area (RCW 36.70A.110(3)). 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 Kitsap County annual comprehensive plan amendment process as
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance X 522-2015
X May 11, 202115 14
authorized by the Growth Management Act. If a UGA amendment submitted to Kitsap
County is associated with an incorporated city, the County shall coordinate with the
respective City prior to finalizing its annual comprehensive plan docket, unless a n
alternative process is further outlined in an inter-local agreement between the City and the
County. Unless otherwise noted in an inter-local agreement, the County has the discretion to
determine their annual comprehensive plan docket consistent with the ir guiding procedural
requirements.
g. Any jurisdiction seeking to expand its expansion of an Urban Growth Area shall achieve
result in zoning that will ensure densities and urban growth patterns and densities consistent
with the Growth Management Act and be consistent with the City’s adopted Comprehensive
Plan and any inter-local agreement between the City and the County.
h. An urban growth area expansion shall not result in new areas being included for population
or employment capacity that exceeds what is necessary to accommodate the growth
management planning projections, plus a reasonable land market supply factor, or market
factor. In determining this market factor, counties and cities may consider local
circumstances.
h. If an adopted or proposed, 20-year projected population distribution requires the expansion of
its Urban Growth Area, the respective jurisdiction shall conduct planning and analysis,
addressing the following conditions:
i. Update and confirm the capacity analysis for land within the existing Urban Growth
Area for residential, commercial, and/or industrial lands, which takes into account all
development approved within the overall UGA since the last UGA expansion. This shall
be based upon updated Buildable Land and Land Capacity Analyses that follow the
guidelines of RCW 36.70A.215 or other analysis determined appropriate for the
particular UGA involved. To maximize consistency across jurisdictions, each
jurisdiction shall use consistent methodolog y in calculating capacity.
ii. Review the planning and zoning regulations and any incentive programs in place to
determine expected densities and urban growth patterns in the existing UGA consistent
with the Growth Management Act and the jurisdiction’s adopted Comprehensive Plan.
iii. Determine whether the adoption and implementation of suitable reasonable measures
should be considered, if the Buildable Land Analysis shows that its Comprehensive Plan
growth goals are not being met.
iv. Data collection and analysis for the Land Capacity Analysis should be done
cooperatively. The County will be responsible for data describing growth and capacity
in the unincorporated portion of the Urban Growth Area, and the City for the
incorporated portion.
i. Expansion of Urban Growth Areas shall direct 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 wi ll be served
adequately by a combination of both existing public facilities and services and any
additional needed public facilities and services that are provided; and third to areas that are
adjacent to incorporated cities or established Urban Growth Are as once the available land
meeting the first or second priority has been designated. Areas which have existing public
facilities or where public facilities can be reasonably 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
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance X 522-2015
X May 11, 202115 15
proposes aAn application for an expansion of the a UGA shall prepare or update a comparison
of potential areas for expansion, including:.
i. Planning and zoning regulations currently in place.
ii. An evaluation of how a full range of urban-level infrastructure and services would be
provided within potential expansion areas, including appropriate capital facility
analysis.
Fire Storm Water Solid Waste
Police Potable Water Park & Recreation Facilities
Transportation Sewer Schools
Utilities: Power and Telecommunications, including Broadband Emergency
Medical Services
All service providers including special districts and adjacent jurisdictions should be
included in the evaluation. Best available infrastructure technology may be used
provided that it has been approved by the jurisdiction as part of a broader review of
available technology.
iii. Although specific standards and criteria are not implied, oOther factors shall should
be addressed in evaluating areas for Urban Growth Area expansion, including but
not limited to: environmental constraints; economic development; preservation of
cultural, historical, and designated resource lands.
iv. Analysis of how the application meets the requirements of WAC 365-196-310,
RCW 36.70A.110, RCW 36.70A.115, and other requirements, as implemented
through the County comprehensive plan docket application process.
k. The City and County shall conduct early and continuous public involvement when
establishing, expanding, or adjusting Urban Growth Areas, and shall do so jointly when
appropriate. Residents of unincorporated areas should be consulted and actively involved in
the process affecting them.
4. UGA-4 Coordinated Growth Management in Urban Growth Areas:
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.
b. To maximize the efficient use of urban lands, subdivisions in Urban Growth Areas shall
should be consistent with the associated jurisdiction’s Comprehensive Plan and underlying
zoning densities, or where applicable, interlocal agreement between the county and city .
c. As described in the Growth Management Act, cCities are the primary provider of municipal
services and facilities in their Urban Growth Areas, responsible for demonstrating within
their Comprehensive Plans the capacity to provide all urban services within their associated
Urban Growth Area(s). This may be accomplished through a collaborative process with
Kitsap County and/or other service providers.
d. The County and Cities shall should establish procedures to facilitate the smooth transfer of
governance for associated Urban Growth Area(s) through the adoption of Urban Growth
Area Management Agreements (UGAMAs), as per Appendix C: Urban Growth Area
Management Agreements interlocal agreements.
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance X 522-2015
X May 11, 202115 16
e. For Urban Growth Areas:
i. The County should plan with associated cities and local communities to address land
uses, infrastructure needs, level of service standards a s identified in these policies, and
other issues as needed. The results should be reflected in the County Comprehensive
Plan.
ii. The County should provide a level of urban facilities and services consistent with the
County’s ability and appropriateness to provide such services for those Urban Growth
Areas that will be associated with a specific city or that will eventually incorporate.
5. UGA-5 Policies for the distribution of Distribution of 20-year population and employment
growth increments, as forecasted by the WA Office of Financial Management:
a. The Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council shall coordinate the process for distributing the
forecasted population and employment growth for the period 2005 – 2025 and every five
years thereafter, consistent with the requirements of the Growth Management Act and
PSRC’s most recent Regional Growth Strategy (RGS). Following receipt of KRCC’s
recommendation, Kitsap County shall adopt any revision to population or employment
targets. the population distribution The County and cities as part of its next Comprehensive
Plan update amendment process shall reflect those adopted growth targets in their
Comprehensive Plan. and the Cities shall base their Comprehensive Plan amendments upon
that distribution. The distribution process should consider countywide demographic
analysis, the Land Capacity Analysis, the RGS, 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 Kitsap County in the rural areas, but also Cities’ Comprehensive Plans being designed to
attract substantial new population growth.
b. The Regional Growth Strategy (RGS) provides a framework for the Kitsap Regional
Coordinating Council to consider as population growth is distributed. Population
distributions should support the RGS while also recognizing countywide demographic
information, jobs/housing balance, designated centers, transit service/access to high -
capacity transit, and growth trends. In supporting the RGS, growth should be focused in
metropolitan cities (Bremerton and the Bremerton UGA), Core cities (Silverdale), and High
Capacity Transit Communities (Bainbridge Island, Kingston, Port Orchard and Port
Orchard UGA, and Poulsbo and Poulsbo UGA).
c. Population distribution and employment targets will be reviewed through the Kitsap
Regional Coordinating Council process every five years. The review will include an
analysis of the Cities’ and County’s progress in achieving target distributions consistent
with the Buildable Lands review and evaluation pro gram. 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.
d. Each jurisdiction with a designated Urban Growth Area shall The County and cities should
work together to develop an estimate and/or range of the additional population and
employment that it could accommodate and service during the 20 year planning horizon,
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance X 522-2015
X May 11, 202115 17
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.
e. The population and employment estimates and/or ranges shall be provided to the Kitsap
Regional Coordinating Council, with a statement of need concerning adjusted Urban
Growth Area boundaries.
f. 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.
f. The Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council, after conducting a public hearing, shall
recommend the estimate and/or ranges of 20 -year population and employment distribution
to Kitsap County for adoption as an amendment to the Countywide Planning Policies.
g. Kitsap County should give substantial weight to the Kitsap Regional Coordinating
Council’s recommendation in adopting the 20 -year population and employment distribution.
h. Following adoption of the estimates and/or ranges, each jurisdiction should update its
comprehensive plan, so as to arrive at a final population targets consistent with the estimate
and/or within the original range as adopted within Appendix B.
i. 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 and employment distribution incorporated into the
Countywide Planning Policies. A final distribution to Urban Growth Areas versus non-
Urban Growth Areas within the range specified above should then be calculated.

6. UGA-6 Policies for Growth Outside of
Urban Growth Areas: Fully Contained
Communities, National Historic Towns
and Master Planned Resorts
a. A Master Plan review process and
decision criteria for fully contained
communities, national historic
towns, and master planned resorts
should be incorporated in the
County’s Comprehensive Plan, must
reflect the standards and
requirements in the GMA, and in
addition must address the following:
i. Provision of necessary public
facilities, including but not
limited to parks, schools, and
public safety facilities should be
provided within or along with the
development, consistent with
adopted capital facility and level
of service standards;
ii. Future assessment of adverse
impacts to public infrastructure,
nearby communities, adjacent
rural areas, environmental
resources, and designated
resource lands. Such impacts should first be avoided, second minimized, and third
mitigated;
iii. Provisions for review of such developments through the Kitsap Regional Coordinating
Council process, in addition to other procedural requirements.
b. Consistent with guidance provided in Vision 2040 2050, the Kitsap Regional Coordinating
Council shall avoid the establishment of a Fully Contained Community (FCC). Only if it is
found necessary to accommodate future urban population growth may the Kitsap Regional
Coordinating Council recommend the creation of an FCC and a corresponding new
community reserve population. Any such designation shall be fully consistent with all
Countywide Planning Policies establishing new Urban Growth Areas (Elements B3 and B5
(UGA-3 and UGA -5) and RCW 36.70A.350 (2), which, in part, requires that a new
community reserve population be established no more than once every five years as a part of
the designation or review of Urban Growth Areas and that the Urban Growth Areas shall be
accordingly offset.
In addition, the following shall be included in any County Comprehensiv e Plan requirements
governing FCCs:
i. a phasing plan that monitors and requires concurrent development of commercial and
employment uses with residential development, to insure that the community is fully
contained;
Under the Growth Management Act (RCW
36.70A.350), fully contained communities
(FCCs) may be considered, provided that a
portion of the twenty-year population forecast is
reserved for & subsequently distributed to the
FCC. The GMA requires that FCCs provide for
a mix of uses that would provide jobs, housing,
& public facilities and services to support a
long-term residential population.
The GMA (RCW 36.70A.360) also allows the
consideration of proposed master planned resorts
(MPR’s) outside of Urban Growth Areas for
shorter-term residential uses.
Master planned resorts are described as self-
contained, fully integrated planned developments
in areas with significant natural amenities.
The GMA allows for areas with a federal
landmark designation to be developed as National
Historic Towns (RCW 36.70A.520). Th e
designation may allow urban services in rural
areas dependent upon historic development
pattern. Its boundaries and land uses must be
consistent with those over the course of its history,
but not specific to any point in time.
Vision 2040 policies state that new FCC’s are to be
avoided.

ii. a mechanism to insure that the timing of the development components will be fully
regulated by the phasing plan;
iii. a substantial public benefit.
c. As Vision 2040 2050 requires comprehensive review and consideration of the regional
impacts of any proposed Fully Contained Community, the County shall for ward the proposal
to adjacent counties, the Puget Sound Regional Council, and the Kitsap Regional
Coordinating Council for review at the earliest possible point in the process. The Kitsap
Regional Coordinating Council shall review the proposal for regional impacts to the
following:
i. the regional growth strategy as included in Vision 2040 2050;
ii. the split in population growth between the countywide urban and rural areas;
iii. other elements of the Countywide Planning Policies.

Element C: Centers of Growth
Centers are intended to be compact and centralized working, shopping and/or activity areas linked
to other Centers by transit and non-motorized facilities. [See H. Transportation: 5-6] Centers and
their boundaries are intended to be locally determined by the County and the Cities where a
community-wide focal point can be provided, significant population and/or employment growth
can be located, and the increased use of transit, walking and bicycling can be supported.
Designated Centers are intended to define the pattern of future residential and
commercial/industrial growth and incorporate opportunities for parks, civic, an d public space
development in Kitsap County. (See Appendix F for listing of Kitsap Designated Centers.)
Centers are the hallmark of Puget Sound Regional Council’s (PSRC) Regional Growth Strategy
and Vision 2050. They guide regional growth allocations, ad vance local planning, inform transit
service planning and represent priority areas for PSRC federal transportation funding.
Growth in Centers has significant regional benefits, including supporting multi -modal
transportation options, compact growth, and housing choices near jobs, climate goals, and access to
opportunity. As important focal points for investment and development, Centers represent a crucial
opportunity to support equitable access to affordable housing, services, health, quality transit
service, and employment, as well as to build on the community assets cu rrently present within
centers.
Policies for Centers of Growth (C):
1. C-1 Centers are focal points of growth within
Kitsap County. In decisions relating to
population and employment growth and resource
allocation supporting growth, Centers have a high
priority.
2. C-2 The designation of Centers in Kitsap County shall be consistent with PSRC 2018 Regional
Centers Framework Update and Kitsap Countywide Planning Policies encourage the
development of Centers according to the following typology set forth in Appendix C:
a. Regional Growth Centers:
i. Metropolitan Centers function as anchors within the region for a high density mix of
business, residential, public, cultural and recreational uses, and day an d night activity.
They are characterized by their historic role as the central business districts of the major
cities within the central Puget Sound region, providing services for and easily accessible
to a population well beyond their city limits. Metro Centers may also serve national or
international roles.” (Vision 2040)
ii. 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 are serviced
by transit throughout the day and much of the area is within walking or bicycling
distance. Significant in-fill opportunities exist with the highest residential, commercial,
and employment densities expected. (Vision 2040)
b. Regional Manufacturing/Industrial Centers are major, existing regional employment areas
of intensive, concentrated manufacturing and industrial land uses which cannot be easily
The Puget Sound Regional Council has
defined several types of Centers within
Urban Growth Areas in the four-county
planning region, with planning guidelines
(Vision 2040).

mixed at higher densities with other incompatible uses. To preserve and maximize land at
these centers for manufacturing, industry and related uses, large retail uses or non-related
offices are discouraged. Provision of adequate public facilities and services, including good
access to the region's transportation system, is very important to the success of
manufacturing/industrial centers." (Vision 2040)
c. The following are other types of centers within Kitsap County:
i. Town or City Centers are usually the existing downtown core of a city or Urban Growth
Area. There is an abundant mix of shopping, service, employment, and cultural
opportunities. Multifamily housing may be intermixed and single family housing may
be within walking or bicycling distance. Infill should include mixed use and higher
densities surrounding the Town Center.
ii. Mixed Use Centers are a generic category that can be described in terms of
neighborhoods or districts within a city or Urban Growth Area. The designation
represents a commitment to planning for Center development, with a planned mix of
housing, commercial, service, and employment opportunities. Most shopping and
commercial uses are within a short walking or bicycling distance of housing. There is a
higher proportion of multi-family housing at relatively high densities. Navy facilities
could be considered for this designation.
iii. Activity and Employment Centers are areas of concentrated employment and are a
magnet for significant numbers of people usually during daytime hours because of
business and/or manufacturing activities. They may be located outside of Urban Growth
Areas, consistent with the Growth Management Act. Industrial and business parks and
Navy employment centers are in this category. Within Urban Growth Areas, the
opportunity to include a proportional residential element should be determined on a
case-by-case basis, considering the unique geography and economics of the area.
iv. Transportation Hubs are locations of regional inter-modal connection that may be
located outside of Urban Growth Areas. Examples are ferry terminals, the Bremerton
National Airport, or certain transit stations.
3. C-3 Recognizing that communities evolve over time, a jurisdiction may request of the Kitsap
Regional Coordinating Council an initial designation or a change in Center status. This request
shall be considered and a decision made during the next Countywide Plann ing Policies
amendment cycle. A change in Center status may require action by the Puget Sound Regional
Council. Centers of Growth purpose is to implement the PSRC Regional Growth Strategy
embodied in Vision 2050 and the 2018 PSRC Regional Centers Framework Update.
a. Each incorporated city shall have at least one Center designation intended and sized to
accommodate a concentration of the jurisdiction’s growth target (residential and
employment). Unincorporated urban growth areas may have a Centers designation .
b. The number of Center designations is determined by the jurisdiction as necessary to
accommodate its growth target as demonstrated within its comprehensive plan and/or
subarea plan.
4. C-4 Centers shall be identified within a local Comprehensive Plan and/or subarea plan, and
establish its compliance and consistency with the PSRC 2018 Regional Centers Framework
designation criteria and Appendix C. Use of PSRC Centers Plan tools, resources and checklists
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance X 522-2015
X May 11, 202115 22
are encouraged to ensure compliance and consistency.
a. It is expected that Centers identification within a local comprehensive plan or subarea plan occurs:
1) as part of a GMA required periodic update; 2) an updated PSRC growth target or GMA
population forecast/allocation; 3) PRSC major plan update; 4) demonst rated need by jurisdiction to
ensure consistency with PSRC Regional Growth Strategy, Vision 2050, and/or GMA; and/or 5)
moving from countywide to regional center designation.
b. The local comprehensive plan and/or subarea plan shall include:
i. Formalized Center boundaries;
ii. Demonstration of how the center meets the criteria and requirements of the PSRC 2018
Regional Centers Framework and Appendix C (e.g activity unit analysis, size, capacity,
infrastructure analysis, multi-modal/transit considerations, etc);
iii. Identification of growth target (residential and employment) the Center is planning for;
iv. If a subarea plan is not prepared, the comprehensive plan shall include a specific chapter or
specific section(s) dedicated to the Center(s).
c. Center boundaries may expand and reconfigure over time but shall continue to meet the minimum
criteria as set forth in PSRC 2018 Regional Centers Framework and Appendix C. Failure of a local
jurisdiction’s comprehensive plan and/or subarea plan to maintain a Center’s designation and
minimum criteria will result in its removal from Appendix D.
4.In addition to meeting the applicable criteria
above, a request for Center designation or a
change in Center status should address the
following: (See Appendix G)
a. Current or programmed transportation
resources (including roads, ferries, transit,
airports, bicycle, pedestrian)
b. Balance of living wage employment
opportunities with residential
c. Proximity and connectivity among jobs,
housing, retail services
d. Types and density of residential uses
e. Inclusion of affordable housing
f. Provision of community gathering space,
parks, and cultural opportunities
g. Impacts to ecological functions.
5. C-5 Countywide Planning Policies Center identification is set forth in Appendix D. The
Centers type, jurisdiction, status, and designation process are also set forth in Appendix D.
Living wage is the minimum hourly wage
needed by a sole provider working full time
(2080 hours per year) to cover the costs of
food, shelter, clothing, and other basic

Element D: Rural Land Uses and Development Patterns (R)
Rural areas of Kitsap County are characterized as having a variety of parcel sizes, with a diversity
of land 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 areas. Counties are
responsible for designating and regulati ng rural areas through the comprehensive planning process.
However, rural preservation is a regional issue , and it is important to coordinate these planning
objectives with the Cities.
The policies in this chapter are focused on rural lands uses and devel opment patterns. This includes
policies focused on preserving rural character and the natural environment, development patterns
including Rural Centers and Rural Communities, establishing, and maintaining rural levels of
service, and conservation and support for small-scale natural resource land uses in the rural area.
Policies for Rural Land Uses and Development Patterns (R):
1. R-1 Preserving rural character and enhancing the natural environment.
a. Preserve the character of identified rural areas by protecti ng and enhancing the natural
environment, open spaces, recreational opportunities, and scenic and historic areas. Support
small scale farming and working resource land, promote locally grown food, forestry, eco -
and heritage-tourism. Support low-density residential living and cluster development that
provides for a mix of housing types, rural levels of service, cultural activities, and
employment that services the needs of rural areas at a size and scale that is compatible with
long-term character, productivity, and use of these lands.
b. The County shall establish low intensities of development and uses in areas outside of
Urban Growth Areas to preserve resource lands and protect rural areas from sprawling
development.
c. This policy is not intended to preclude the future designation of Urba n Growth Areas.
d. Manage and reduce rates of development in rural areas over time through continued and
increased allocations of growth to Urban Growth Areas.
2. R-2 Preserving rural land use and development patterns:
a. Rural Communities 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. Rural Communities should be serviced by transportation
providers and other services consistent with the Levels of Service adopted by Kitsap County for
roads and by Kitsap Transit for transit upon their designation as an area of more intensive rural
development.
a. Rural Centers are LAMIRDs that are identified in the County’s Comprehensive Plan. These
existing residential and commercial areas of more intensive rural development are designated in the
Kitsap County Comprehensive Plan under RCW30.70A.070(5). In-fill, consistent with Growth
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance X 522-2015
X May 11, 202115 24
Management Act requirements, is expected. Rural Centers should be served by transportation
providers and other services consistent with the Levels of Service adopted by Kitsap County for
roads and by service standards set by Kitsap Transit for transit service upon desi gnation as an area
of more intensive development.
b. Rural Centers are not Centers of Growth as designated in Element C and in Appendix C. It is
recognized that transportation investment, which supports existing and in -fill development allowed
under RCW36.70A.070(5), is important to the overall transportation network.
c. Rural Centers include:
a. Port Gamble
b. Suquamish
c. Keyport
d. Manchester
e. Type 3 LAMIRDs
d. b.Transportation Hubs may be located within existing areas of more intensive
development. Walking, bicycling, and transit are the major forms of travel. Transportation
Hubs are locations of regional intermodal connection. Examples are ferry terminals and
transit stations with convenience services.
e. c. The County shall develop criteria consistent with the Growth Management Act for
designating future industrial and commercial development outside of Urban Growth Areas
that protect rural character while encouraging vehicle trip reduction. The 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. R-3 Establishing and maintaining rural levels of service:
a. Rural level-of-service standards shall address sewage disposal, water, transportation and
other appropriate services. The standards shall be developed based upon levels of service
typically delivered in rural areas consistent with RCW 36.70A.030 (16).
b. For purpose of trip reduction, develop a range of alternative modes of transportation
consistent with rural levels of service to connect Rural Communities with urban Centers.
c. When sewers need to be extended to solve isolated health, environmental, and sanitation
problems, they shall be designed for limited access so as not to increase the development
potential of the surrounding rural area.
4. R-4 Conserving small-scale natural resource use in rural areas:
a. Rural land use designations in the County's Comprehensive Plan shall recognize ecological
functions and support rural uses such as farming, forestry, mining, recreation, tourism, and
other rural activities, and permit a variety of low-density residential uses which that preserve
rural character and ecological functions, and can be sustained by rural service levels.
b. The County's Comprehensive Plan policies shall promote clustering residential development
and other techniques to protect and enhance significant open spaces, natural resources, cultural
resources, and critical areas for more effective use of the land. Clustering should not increase
residential housing units in the overall area designated as rural, consistent with designated rural
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance X 522-2015
X May 11, 202115 25
densities. Development clusters shall be designed, scaled and sited in a manner consistent with
rural character and the provision of rural levels of service.
c. The County's Comprehensive Plan policies shall support Rural Communities as locations of
employment, a mix of housing types, and cultural activities for rural areas that primarily
function as locations for service needs such as grocery stores, shopping, and community
services, and small-scale cottage industries for the surrounding rural area.

Element E. Countywide Strategies for Open Space
Preservation, Resource Preservation, Critical Areas, Air
Quality, and Water Quality/Quantity Natural Environment
(NE)
Open space The natural environment is defined as land area consisting of open space, natural
systems, resource lands and critical areas that include building limitations for future development.
These critical areas include wetlands, wildlife conservation areas, steep slopes, frequently flooded
areas and areas with a critical recharging affect. These open space lands also include aesthetic
functions such as view sheds of the water or ridgelines. Many of these natural systems are inter -
connected and cross multi- jurisdictional boundaries within the County. The strategy is to conserve
these areas and connect them to create a regional open space network to protect crit ical areas,
conserve natural resources, and preserve lands and resources of countywide and local significance.
The purpose of these strategies is to enhance the quality of countywide water, soil, and air
resources and, potentially, climate and reduce and mitigate countywide effects on the changing
climate.
The policies in this chapter are focused on a variety of issues involving the natural environment.
This includes coordination to protect and create open space corridors, critical areas, listed species
and both air and water quality/quantity. In addition, this element addresses watershed and land use
planning along with policies that address impacts to Kitsap resulting from changes to our climate.

Element F. Contiguous, Compatible, and Orderly
Development (D)
Upon designation of Urban Growth Areas, the County and Cities will need to develop consistent
implementation measures to ensure that development occurs in an orderly and contiguous manner. The
intent of the following countywide planning policies is to minimize differences in urban development
regulations and standards between the County and the Cities and to facilitate the economical provision
of urban services to development.
Coordination between KRCC members is vital to ensure contiguous, compatible, and orderly
development in the county. The policies in this chapter not only outline the purpose for, and reasons
why inter-jurisdictional planning is important at the federal, tribal, state, local, and special purpose
government but how that coordination with take place at the KRCC. In addition, these policies focus on
specific topics where coordination is essential. This includes but is not limited to land use,
transportation, infrastructure planning and community design and development. Finally, these policies
outline measures to address displacement as growth occurs in Kitsap and how KRCC members can
look at growth issues through an equity lens when important decisions are made.
Policies for Contiguous, Compatible, and Orderly Development (CCOD):
1. D-1 Encouragement of cooperative inter-jurisdictional planning by federal, tribal, state, local,
and special purpose government:

planning process and shall be made available as early and expeditiously as possible by the
responsible agencies.
c. The Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council may establish or designate on-going technical
committee(s) comprised of representatives from utilities and service providers to investigate
long-range regional needs for various facilities and services, including but not limited to
those for transportation, sewer and storm drainage, availability and delivery of potable
water, solid waste, broadband, parks and recreation, and open space.
d. The Countywide Planning Policies will further the implementation of Vision 2040 and
Transportation 2040 as adopted by the Puget Sound Regional Council.
2. D-2 Inter-regional coordination of land use and transportation, environmental, and
infrastructure planning:
a. The County and the Cities shall participate in the Puget Sound Regional Council and the
Peninsula Regional Transportation Planning Organization.
b. Locally-generated data shall be provided to the Puget Sound Regional Council and the
Peninsula Regional Transportation Planning Organization for use in their coordination of
population forecasts, land use, and transportation.
c. The planning proposals of these regional organizations shall be monitored, and adjustments

recommended to insure ensure that they accurately reflect local needs and plans.
d. Recognize and work with corridors that cross jurisdictional boundaries (including natural
systems, and transportation and infrastructure systems) in community planning,
development, and design.
3. D-3 Fiscal equity:
a. It is recognized that fiscal disparities exist as a result of growth and changes in municipal
boundaries. The Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council shall monitor the Revenue Sharing
Inter-local Agreement among the County and Cities (shown as Appendix D) and seek
additional ways to address fiscal disparities as they relate to promoting coordinated
development and the implementation of the Growth Management Act.
b. The County and the Cities shall work together to insure ensure that all fees associated with
development approval are based upon the real cost of service and act to encourage
development within designated Urban Growth Areas.
c. The Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council shall should facilitate on-going regional
discussion on revenue equity issues.
4. D-4 Community design and development: Strategies should promote orderly development that
reflects the unique character of a community and encourages healthy lifestyles through building
and site design and transportation connectivity. In addition, sustainable economic and
environmental development techniques should be utilized to enhance the quality of life:
a. Utilize design strategies to ensure that changes in the built environment provide continuous
and orderly development.
b. Encourage development that reflects unique local qualities and provides an economic
benefit to the community.
c. Design mixed use developments and local street patterns to improve the environment for
overall mobility and accessibility to and within the development through multi -modal
transportation options that serve all users.
d. Design of transportation networks should fit within the context of the built and natural
environment, enhancing the community, connectivity, and physical activity in the area
community wide and specifically in designated growth centers and high transit areas.
e. Design schools, institutions and public facilities to be compatible with the surrounding
community character and needs.
f. Use sustainable building techniques (such as rehabilitation/re -use, LEED [Leadership in

and historically underserved communities is important. It ensures all people can attain the
resources and opportunities to improve their quality of life. Policies focused on equity are
contained throughout the Countywide Planning Policies.
a. Support PSRC in the development of a Regional Equity Strategy that will provide tools,
resources, and guidance to integrate this issue into planning processes.
b. Planning for parks/open space, future growth, housing, transportation, public facilities, and
services, and where uses are located all have an impact on our community. As
comprehensive plans are updated, the County and cities should consider how these
decisions impact historically underserved communities and coordinate on ways to address
for those impacts together.
D-6 Displacement: As the region continues to grow, population and employment growth is
focused within our urban areas. As redevelopment takes place, however, there is a potential for
physical, economic, and cultural displacement of low- income households that may result from
planning, public investments, private redevelopment, and market pressures. As important
planning, transportation, and redevelopment takes place:
c. Consider developing coordinated strategies and interjurisdictional processes between the
County and cities to mitigate the impacts of displacement.
d. Consider implementing flexible strategies that will encourage development of a range of
affordable housing, both public and private.

Element G. Siting Public Capital Facilities and Essential
Public Facilities
The Growth Management Act requires local governments to inventory existing capital facilities
owned by public entities, to identify locations and to determine capacities to meet future demand
for growth without decreasing levels of service. The Washington State Office of Financial
Management is responsible for identifying and maintaining a list of essential state public facilities
that are required or likely to be built within the next six years as required by the Growth
Management Act. Counties and cities are also required to coordinate the siting of countywide and
statewide capital facilities to mitigate potential adverse impacts from the location and development
of these facilities.
The Growth Management Act (GMA) requires that Countywide Planning Policies address siting
public capital facilities of a countywide or statewide nature, including transportation facilities of
statewide significance. The term capital facilities of countywide of statewide nature is not defined
in state law but is synonymous with essential public facilities, which are defined in the GMA.
Essential public facilities include facilities that are typically difficult to site, such as airports, state
education facilities and state or regional transportation facilities, regional transit authority facilities,
state and local correctional facilities, solid waste handling facilities, and inpatient facilities
including substance abuse facilities, mental health facilities, group homes, and secure community
transition facilities (RCW 36.70A.200). The policies in this chapter focus on areas where
coordination is necessary for the siting of essential public facilities, including transportation
facilities and services of statewide significance.
Each city and county is required to have a capital facilities plan. Capital facilities include, but are
not limited to, water systems, sanitary sewer systems, stormwater facilities, reclaimed water
facilities, schools, parks and recreational facilities, police and fire protection facilities. PSRCs
Multicounty Planning Policies (MPPs) have further refined these requirements to encourage the
county and cities to coordinate planning efforts, especially where it would improve service to the
public and protect the environment. This chapter provides public capital facility policies, which
serve to implement PSRCs Multicounty Planning Policies (MPPs) and enhance coordination.
Policies for Siting Public Capital Facilities (CF):
1. CF-1 Identification of needed capital facilities:
a. The County and the Cities shall each inventory their existing capital facilities and identify
needed facility expansion and construction and provide that data to the Kitsap Regional
Coordinating Council.
b. The Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council shall develop and maintain a list of public
capital facilities needed to serve Kitsap County as a whole, based upon the County and
Cities' Comprehensive Plans, the Countywide Coordinated Water System Plan, and other
appropriate system plans. These include, but are not limited to, solid and hazardous waste
handling facilities and disposal sites, water and wastewater treatment facilities, regional
water supply inter-tie facilities, education institutions, airports, loc al correctional facilities,
in-patient facilities including hospitals and regional park and recreation facilities, and
government buildings that serve Kitsap County as a whole, including those essential public
facilities as defined in RCW 36.70A.200.
2. CF-2 Location of public capital and public facilities:
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance X 522-2015
X May 11, 202115 34
a. If the primary population served by the facility is urban, the facility should be located in a
City or Urban Growth Area where feasible.
b. Public capital facilities that generate substantial travel demand sho uld be located along or
near major transportation corridors and existing public transportation routes.
c. Public capital facilities shall not be located in designated resource lands, critical areas, or
other areas where siting of such facilities would be incompatible.
d. Encourage the design of capital facilities and utilities in rural areas to be at a size and scale
appropriate to rural locations, so as not to increase development pressure.
3. CF-3 Some regionally significant public capital facilities may be located outside of Urban
Growth Areas. Capital facilities located beyond Urban Growth Areas should be self -contained
or be served by services in a manner that will not promote sprawl.
4. CF-4 Promote affordability and equitable access of public capital facilities to all communities,
including those communities that have been historically underserviced.
5. CF- 5 Consider disproportionately burdened communities when siting or expanding capital
facilities.

Element H. Transportation
The Growth Management Act requires that transportation planning be coordinated with the land
use elements of local comprehensive plans as well as among local and state jurisdictions. The
Growth Management Act further requires that transportation planning be coordinated with the land
use elements of local comprehensive plans. In addition, transportation policies should be consistent
with the policies contained within Puget Sound Regional Councils (PSRC) Transportation and
Vision plans. Coordination of land use and transportation plans will allow Kitsap County and the
Kitsap Ccities to meet three inter-related transportation goals:
o Serve Designated Centers to rReduce sprawl, conserve land and make more efficient use of
infrastructure,.
o Preserve air and water quality, the natural environment, and address impacts contributing
to climate change. the natural environment, including water and air quality and, potentially,
climate.
o Provide a balanced system for the efficient, clean, safe 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 following transportation facilities are of countywide
significance:
a. state and federal highways;
b. major principal arterials;
c. public transit facilities and services;
d. non-motorized facilities connecting designated centers which provide inter-county
transportation connections;
e. marine transportation facilities (ferries, shipping);
f. airports and heliports (passenger and/or freight);
g. rail facilities (passenger and/or freight)
The following facilities and system components should be included in the multi -modal network:
a. roads, including major highways, arterials and collectors; b public transit, including
bus, rail, and park & ride lots;
c. non-motorized facilities;
d. vehicle and public or private passenger only ferries;
e. airports;
f. parking facilities that support the multi -modal network;
g. facilities related to implementation of transportation demand management strategies;
h. intelligent transportation systems (ITS).

• Provide public transit, including
preferential treatments for transit, such
as queue by-pass lanes (dedicated bus
lanes that allow
for transit queue jumps), traffic signal
modifications, and safe, transit stops.
• Provide integrated transfer points to facilitate seamless trips between transit and
other modes of travel, particularly at ferry terminals, including park & ride lots, bike
storage facilities, carpool/vanpool and transit advantages to ease ingress/ egress,
with proximity to actual connection points, and innovative transit-oriented
development.
• Provide non-recreational bicycle and pedestrian facilities, including safe
neighborhood walking and biking routes to school.
• During the development of all state , county, and city highway capacity improvement
projects, consider the market demand for non-SOV travel and the addition of High
Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes, park & ride lots, and appropriate infrastructure for
The State of Washington has taken steps to
reduce greenhouse gas emissions and
vehicle miles traveled. Not only does
reducing the overall amount of travel
produce benefits for improving air quality
and curbing emissions related to climate
change, it also lessens traffic congestion.
Developing a transportation system that
provides more opportunities for walking,
bicycling, or using transit also creates more
choices and options for people.
The WA State Dept of Transportation and
Vision 2040 policies identify telework (or
tele-commuting) as a viable transportation
alternative. The WSDOT-funded 2008
Kitsap Telework Pilot Project noted the
particular importance of telework in rural
areas, where citizens tend to drive greater
distances.
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance X 522-2015
X May 11, 202115 39
both bicycling and walking.
ii. The range of policy incentives to encourage the use of non -SOV modes of travel could
include, but is not limited to the following:
• Increased emphasis on the Commute Trip Reduction Program already in place
(including ridesharing incentives), with Kitsap Transit designated as the lead
agency, including program promotion and monitoring.
• Managed parking demand at ferry terminals, employment, and retail centers to
discourage SOV use through privileged parking for HOV users, fee structure and
parking space allocations.
• Encouraging telecommuting, flexible, and compressed work schedules, and home-
based businesses as a viable work alternative.

Element I. Housing (AH)
The Growth Management Act (GMA) requires cities and counties to encourage the availability of
housing that is affordable for all income levels at a variety of housing densities. Local jurisdictions
are also encouraged to preserve existing housing resources in their communities, and to provide an
adequate supply of housing with good access to employment centers to support job creation and
economic growth. (WAC 365.196.410)
VISION 2040 2050 also takes a comprehensive
approach to addressing the range of housing needs.
Housing is addressed throughout GMA
requirements and Vision policies are reflected in
the Countywide Planning Policies. See box on right
for specific references.
Jobs-Housing Balance:
Jobs-housing balance refers to relationship of
housing supply and the job base. There are
transportation implications in terms of improving
accessibility between where jobs are located and
where people live, as well as access to goods,
services and other amenities. Policies in Element C:
Centers of Growth, Element F: Contiguous,
Compatible and Orderly Development, and
Element J:
Countywide Economic Development are all part of
the County’s overall approach to jobs-housing
balance.
Best Practices in Housing:
The County and the Cities recognize the value of housing practices that preserve existing
neighborhoods and communities, use land more efficiently, make services more economical, and
meet the diverse needs of our county’s changing demographics. The Community Design and
Development Policies in Element F: Contiguous, Compatible and Orderly Development address
key innovative practices and design principles for development and housing.
Affordable Housing:
Housing affordability refers to the balance (or imbalan ce) between household income and housing
costs. Affordable housing is a major challenge in Kitsap County.
The following definitions relate to the Countywide Planning Policies: Housing shall mean housing
intended for a full range of household incomes. These income levels are defined as follows (WAC
365.196.410 [2]-e-i-C):
▪ Extremely low-income shall mean those households that have incomes that are at or
below 30% of the countywide median income.
▪ Very low-income shall mean those households that have incomes that are within the
range of 31 - 50% of the countywide median income .
▪ Low-income shall mean those households that have incomes that are within the range of
51 - 80% of the countywide median income.

X May 11, 202115 46
and housing stock, as well as the distribution of existing housing for those households below
120 80% countywide median income, the County and the Cities should develop coordinated
strategies to disperse projected housing for those below 120 80% countywide median income
throughout Kitsap County, where they are specifically found to be appropriate, in consideration
of existing development patterns and densities. These strategies should promote the
development of such housing in a dispersed pattern so as not to concentrate or geographically
isolate low-income housing in a specific area or community.
4. AH-4 Provision of affordable housing for households below 120 80% countywide median
income should be focused within cities and unincorporated UGAs with easy access to
transportation, employment, high opportunity areas, and other services. include:

programs, "self-help" housing, and consumer education.
v. innovative regulatory strategies that provide incentives for the development of such
housing, such as: reducing housing cost by subsidizing utility hook -up fees and rates,
impact fees, and permit processing fees; density incentives; smaller lot sizes; zero lot
line designs; inclusionary zoning techniques, such as requiring housing for specified
income levels in new residential developments; transfers of development rights
and/or a priority permit review and approval process and/or other provisions as
appropriate.
d. Housing policies and programs that address the provision of diverse housing opportunities
to accommodate people experiencing the homelessness, the elderly older people, people
who need physically or mentally challenged behavioral health supports, and other segments
of the population that have special needs.
e. Participation with housing authorities to facilitate the production of such housing. The

Element K. An Analysis of the Fiscal Impact (FI)
In order to To preserve and maintain the community’s quality of life and level of government
services, jurisdictions are expected to fully evaluate their financial capacity to provide the full
range of urban services (as described in Element B – 3[j]) within designated Urban Growth Areas.
The policies in this chapter are focused on the identification of opportunities for coordination
which would have a positive fiscal impact, especially for infrastructure projects and service
delivery.
Policies for Analysis of Fiscal Impact (FI):
1. FI-1 The Countywide Planning Policies recognize three opportunities for jurisdictions to
consider and plan for urban-level infrastructure and services:
a. During each jurisdiction’s comprehensive plan amendments, through the Capital Facilities
Plan, including sub-area plans, Urban Growth Area boundary c hanges, incorporations,
partial dis-incorporations, proposed new fully contained communities and master planned
resorts.
b. At the point where a jurisdiction is comparing and analyzing geographic areas for possible
expansion of its Urban Growth Area (as described in Element B – 3[j]).
c. As part of the development of the Urban Growth Area Management Agreement (see
Element B-4 [d] and Appendix C).
These analyses and plans should identify infrastructure and service costs as well as the
anticipated revenues, including their sources, to support them. As part of these considerations,
jurisdictions should review their financial analyses and plans to confirm their assumptions are
achieving the desired effects.
2. FI-2 Special districts should be included in planning for the provision of urban level services in
Urban Growth Areas and should include future population growth in their plans.
3. FI-3 The Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council shall facilitate on -going regional discussion of
infrastructure and service delivery strategies (see Element F-1 [c]) and revenue equity issues
(see Element F-3 [c]).
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance X 522-2015
X May 11, 202115 52
Element L. Coordination with Tribal Governments (CT)
The Suquamish Tribe, the Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe, and other federally recognized Indian
tribes have reservations and/or trust resources within Kitsap County, Washington. These tribes are
parties to treaties with the United States Government through which certain rights and privileges
both on and off reservation were articulated and remain in effect. These trib es have authorities,
responsibilities, interests and treaty rights within their respective reservation boundaries and Usual
and Accustomed Areas. Since future growth and land use decisions in Kitsap County affect all
governmental entities, governmental agencies must be well informed and continuously involved in
regional and local planning.
Policies for Coordination with Tribal Governments (CT):
1. CT-1 Meaningful and substantial opportunities for early and continuous tribal government
participation shall be incorporated into regional and local planning activities.
2. CT-2 Local jurisdictions should work with the tribes to develop agreements that provide for
discussion on comprehensive planning issues among governments and ensure that the t ribes are
consulted on issues within their interest. The parties will jointly determine the appropriate
contents of the agreements and a schedule for completing them.
3. CT-3 Tribal governments, federal agencies, and county and local governments are encourage d
to coordinate plans among and between governments and agencies to address substantive areas
of mutual interest especially where geographical areas overlay and promote complementary and
cooperative efforts.
4. CT-4 City and County governments are encouraged to include Tribal governments in joint
comprehensive planning and development activities for areas within the Tribes’ Usual and
Accustomed areas. Activities include but are not limited to the establishment and revision of
urban growth boundaries, distribution of forecasted population; regional transportation, capital
facility, housing and utility plans; and policies that may affect natural and/or cultural resources.
5. CT-5 All County, City, and Tribal government agencies shall be included in the normal public
notice and comment procedures of other agencies and kept informed of matters of interest to
them.
6. CT-6 The County, the Cities, and Tribal governmental agencies are encouraged to keep one
another informed about matters of local and regional interest by mut ually agreeable means and
schedule.

Element M. Coordination with Federal Government including
Navy (CF)
The federal government has unique authorities, responsibilities, interests affecting land use and
other activities. Military installations are of particular importance to the economic health of
Washington State, as well as to national security. Since the impacts of future growth and
development in Kitsap County affect all governmental entities, governmental agencies must be well
informed and continuously involved in regional and local planning. The policies in this element
implement these important goals.
Policies for Coordination with Federal Government (CF):
1. CF-1 Meaningful and substantial opportunities for early and continuous federal government
participation shall be incorporated into regional and local planning activities.
2. CF-2 It is recognized that constitutional and statutory provisions may constrain federal
government agencies from entering into local agreements and processes. However, when

cooperative agreements promoting coordination and involvement in activities that are of mutual
interest.
3. CF-3 Federal agencies and county and local governments are encouraged to coordinate plans
among and between governments and agencies to make plans as consistent and compatible as
possible for properties over which they have authority or activities they authorize and the
adjacent areas affected.
4. CF-4 Federal government agencies are encouraged to participate in City, County, and joint
comprehensive planning and development activities that may affect them, including the
establishment and revision of urban growth areas encompassing, adjace nt to or within federally-
owned lands; distribution of forecasted population; regional transportation, capital facility,
housing and utility plans; and policies that may affect natural and/or cultural resources of
interest.
5. CF-5 The following policies relate to promoting coordination among the Cities, County, and the
federal government including the Navy:
a. All jurisdictions should promote planning that considers the impact of new growth to avoid
the potential for encroachment on military readiness activities as described below when
developing zoning ordinances or designating land uses affecting military facilities. Each
jurisdiction and the Navy should coordinate to identify the types of development and areas
of interest to the Navy, method of notice, and opportunities for comment.
b. "Military readiness activities" mean all of the following:
i. Training, support, and operations that prepare the men and women of the military
and Naval ships and submarines for combat.
ii. Operation, maintenance, and security of any military installation.
iii. Testing of military equipment, vehicles, weapons, and sensors for proper operation

City of Bremerton, City of Port Orchard and City of Poulsbo Concerning Revenue
Sharing Upon Annexation and In Conjunction With Major Land Use Decisions
Within a City’s Urban Growth Area
Adopted by all parties in November-December, 2001.
Effective November 24, 2010, the City of Port Orchard is officially withdrawn from this agreement.
Effective November 29, 2011, the City of Bremerton is officially withdrawn from this agreement.
This Agreement, made pursuant to Chapter 39.34 RCW, is between KITSAP COUNTY (hereinafter, the
County), a political subdivision of the State of Washington, and the CITY OF BAINBRIDGE ISLAND,
the CITY OF BREMERTON, the CITY OF PORT ORCHARD, and the CITY OF POULSBO,
(hereinafter, the Cities), municipal subdivisions of the State of Washington.
WHEREAS, through the Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council, the County and the Cities have worked
together constructively on revenue sharing issues that in the past have been adversarial; and
WHEREAS, the County and Cities sought a balanced set of revenue sharing provisions that would
benefit both the County and the Cities and support the orderly evolution of logical land use patterns and
jurisdictional boundaries; and
WHEREAS, the County and Cities reached accord on a set of Principles of Agreement for Revenue
Sharing in Annexations and in Major Land Use Decisions; and
WHEREAS, the County and Cities desire to implement the Principles of Agreement through an interlocal
agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, terms and conditions contained herein,
the parties agree as follows:
SECTION 1 ANNEXATIONS
The purpose of this section is to provide a framework for logical and orderly annexations that are
consistent with the Growth Management Act, Chapter 36.70A RCW (hereinafter GMA), and to mitigate
the fiscal impact to the County of annexations initiated after the effective date of this agreement.
1.1 The Cities each confirm their willingness to eventually annex all land within their designated
Urban Growth Area (hereinafter UGA) boundaries.
1.2 Each City shall encourage annexation of all lands equally, and will support logical and
coordinated annexations, consistent with the intent of the GMA.
1.3 As part of the Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council’s 2002 Work Program, the County and
Cities will continue to address coordinated development within the UGAs, including
infrastructure standards and funding.
1.4 Before the County constructs a major infrastructure improvement within a City’s designated
UGA, the County and the City will negotiate and execute an interlocal agreement that
specifies the level at which the City shall reimburse the County for a portion o f its investment
in the infrastructure improvement if the area where the improvement is to be located is
annexed within a specified period of time.
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance 476-2011
November 14, 2011 d
1.5 The County and the Cities anticipate that each specific proposed annexation will require
negotiation of other issues particular to its time, place and geography. The Cities and the
County commit to completing these negotiations and executing an interlocal agreement on
such issues in a timely manner.
1.6 As part of this agreement, the County will not oppose annexations within that City’s
designated UGA or invite the Boundary Review Board to invoke jurisdiction.
1.7 The Cities agree to share with the County revenue lost to the County and gain ed by the
annexing City as follows:
A. Revenue sharing payments shall be based on the following three sources of
revenue:
1. The County’s portion of the local retail sales tax levied under Chapter
82.14 RCW.
2. The ad valorem property tax levied by the County pursuant to RCW
36.82.040 for establishment and maintenance of county transportation
systems.
3. The admission tax levied by the County pursuant to Chapter 36.38
RCW.
B. For purposes of this Section, “lost revenue” means an amount computed as follows:
The combined total of the County’s collections from all three sources
within the annexation area during the calendar year preceding annexation
minus
The combined total of the County’s collections from all three sources
within the annexation area during the first full calendar year following
annexation.
C. The amount of the payment from the City to the County will be based on a three -year “soft
landing” approach as follows:
1. The Year 1 payment will be equal to 75% of the County’s lost revenue.
2. The Year 2 payment will be equal to 50% of the County’s lost revenue.
3. The Year 3 payment will be equal to 25% of the County’s lost revenue.
D. The calculation of lost revenue pursuant to subsection B of this Section requires revenue
data for one full year following annexation. Therefore, the County shall initiate a request
for payment under this Section by written notice to the annexing City within two years of
the effective date of the annexation.
SECTION 2 MAJOR LAND USE ACTIONS
The purpose of this section is to recognize that retail development near jurisdictional boundaries has
an impact on neighboring jurisdictions and, in particular, on existing businesses and the demand for
public services and facilities. This Section is designed to mitigate these impacts by provid ing that sales
tax revenues from new major business development within a City’s designated UGA, or from the
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance 476-2011
November 14, 2011 d
relocation of an existing major business from a City to a location within the City’s designated UGA, will
be shared with the affected City.
2.1 For purposes of this Agreement, “major land use” means:
A. A new development within a City’s designated UGA that houses any single retail tenant
greater than 40,000 square feet.
B. The expansion of an existing retail business within the City’s designated UGA if the
expansion is greater than 40,000 square feet.
C. A retail business greater than 25,000 square feet that is relocated from a City to the City’s
designated UGA. Or
D. An automobile, truck, recreational vehicle, manufactured or mobile home, or boat
dealership, regardless of the size of the building permitted, that is newly located within a
City’s designated UGA, or relocated from a City to the City’s designated UGA.
2.2 The County agrees to share with the affected City revenue lost to the City and gained by the
County due to a major land use, as follows:
A. Revenue sharing payments will be required only for local retail sales tax revenues
generated from major land uses. Because there are limitations, related to confidentiality,
on using a figure based on actual sales tax collections from the new or relocated business,
the revenue sharing payment will be based on estimated sales tax revenues derived by
using industry standards, such as the Washington State Department of Revenue or the
Urban Land Institute, for taxable retail sales per square foot for businesses.
B. For purposes of this Section, “lost revenue” means an amount computed as follows:
Total gross enclosed building square footage of the major land use
x
Industry standard annual average retail sales per square foot for category of business that most closely
resembles the major land use
x
Tax rate levied under Chapter 82.14 RCW
for the first full calendar year following the date on which the County issues a certificate of occupancy
for the major land use.
C. The County will make revenue sharing payments for the first full three years after the
major land use receives a certificate of occupancy.
D. The revenue sharing payment from the County to the affected City will be calculated
according to the following formulas:
1. For the relocation of a major retail business from a City to the City’s designated
UGA:
a. The Year 1 payment will be equal to 75% of the City’s lost revenue;
b. The Year 2 payment will be equal to 50% of the City’s lost revenue; and
Adopted by Kitsap County Ordinance 476-2011
November 14, 2011 d
c. The Year 3 payment will be equal to 25% of the City’s lost revenue.
2. For new development within a City’s designated UGA that houses any single retail
tenant greater than 40,000 square feet, the payment amount will be 50% of the
City’s estimated lost revenue each year for the first three years.
F. The calculation of lost revenue pursuant to subsection B of this Section requires revenue
data for one full year following issuance of a certificate of occupancy. Therefore, the
affected City shall initiate a request for payment under this Section by written notice to the
County within two years of the date the major land use receives the County’s permission to
occupy the building.
SECTION 3 MISCELLANEOUS
3.1 Duration. This Agreement will remain in effect until the terms of the Agreement are
fulfilled. There is no other term agreed to by the parties
3.2 Reevaluation. Any City or the County may request immediate reevaluation of this

(iv) the protection and preservation of property, unless the termination is for default, in which case the

potential loss or liability.
