indoor soccer center, and two lighted all-weather (dirt) soccer fields. Although designed for wet-
weather play, the dirt fields have fallen out of favor due to dusty, abrasive conditions that limit
playability, raise safety concerns, and render them unusable. Converting one field to synthetic turf
will restore safe, high-quality playing conditions and support consistent year-round use, maximizing
existing lighting and amenities. The primary use will be youth soccer, with additional use for youth
lacrosse, rugby, flag football, ultimate frisbee, and other field sports, as well as recreational leagues
and tournaments.

DESCRIPTION
The City of Bremerton will install synthetic turf on one existing all-weather soccer field at Pendergast Regional Park, along with
a new restroom and ADA-accessible pathways and parking. This 50.3-acre sports complex, built in 1995, includes a 479-stall
lighted parking lot, three lighted ball fields, a basketball court, playground, sand volleyball courts, an off-leash dog area, an
indoor soccer center, and two lighted all-weather (dirt) soccer fields. Although designed for wet-weather play, the dirt fields
have fallen out of favor due to dusty, abrasive conditions that limit playability, raise safety concerns, and render them
unusable.
Converting one field to synthetic turf will restore safe, high-quality playing conditions and support consistent year-round use,
maximizing existing lighting and amenities. The primary use will be youth soccer, with additional use for youth lacrosse,
rugby, flag football, ultimate frisbee, and other field sports, as well as recreational leagues and tournaments.
The city is requesting $1.5 million in grant funding and qualifies for a reduced 10% match; the project scope is estimated at $2
million. Concurrent improvements, including a second turf field, ADA-accessible pathways and stair connection, and LED
lighting upgrades, are anticipated to be constructed simultaneously, with the $1.5 million grant serving as a catalyst to
leverage private funding and sponsorships, bringing the total investment to approximately $4 million.

#0:PROJECT INTRODUCTION Introduce the project’s location and
goals to set the stage for the project.
#1:NEED - LOCAL PRIORITIES Describe the need for new or improved
recreation facilities, how the need is known, and why existing
amenities in the service area do not satisfy the need.
Pendergast Regional Park is a 50.3-acre sports complex in Bremerton’s West Hills, and a
primary youth sports hub for Kitsap County and the Puget Sound region. The project will
convert an existing all-weather soccer field to synthetic turf and add ADA-accessible
parking, pathways, and restroom. These improvements address long-standing limitations
in field quality and accessibility that have constrained youth programming.
The synthetic turf will provide a safe, durable, all-weather surface supporting year-round
play for soccer, lacrosse, rugby, and other sports—critical in a region with frequent wet
conditions. The project will expand access, support tournaments, retain local athletes, and
maximize the use of existing infrastructure while advancing equitable recreational
opportunities and long-term community benefits.
The need for improved athletic facilities at Pendergast Regional Park is well-documented
and consistently identified in city planning efforts. The site has been a top priority in the
City of Bremerton’s Parks, Recreation, and Open Space (PROS) Plan since 2007,
demonstrating long-standing community demand for improved playfields and more
recreational options. Current “all-weather” dirt fields no longer meet user needs due to poor
playability, abrasiveness, safety concerns, and limited usability in wet conditions, rendering
them an unusable key community resource. In addition, the restroom facility is a
substandard, non-accessible pit toilet installed in 1996 that does not meet current health,
accessibility, or user expectations. The site also lacks accessible pathways, making the fields
difficult for visitors to reach in accordance with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
guidelines.
This need is further emphasized by the lack of comparable facilities in Kitsap County. The
closest synthetic turf soccer fields are at the Kitsap County Fairgrounds, creating regional
competition for limited field time and restricting access. As a result, local youth sports
organizations frequently experience scheduling conflicts or must travel outside the area to
find reliable, year-round playing surfaces. Existing facilities in the service area lack sufficient
capacity or quality to meet the growing demand for youth soccer and other field sports.
The proposed project directly addresses these deficiencies by converting an existing field to
synthetic turf and improving site accessibility, positioning Pendergast Regional Park as a
central, high-quality, and inclusive hub for youth sports in Bremerton and throughout
Kitsap County.
Project Factsheet
Page 6 of 14 05/18/2026
#2:PROJECT SCOPE Describe the site’s existing natural and built
features. Describe what is being proposed in the project,
including land acquisition and/or elements to be built or
renovated, and for what purpose.
Pendergast Regional Park is Bremerton’s flagship sports complex, encompassing 50.3 acres
of developed parkland in West Bremerton. The park includes a wide range of recreational
amenities and supporting infrastructure, such as a 479-stall lighted parking lot, multiple
lighted softball and soccer fields (including two all-weather dirt soccer fields), a concession
and restroom building (that serves the softball fields), basketball and volleyball courts, a
playground, picnic areas, walking paths, and a paved plaza. Additional features include an
off-leash dog area, a maintenance yard, and the adjacent privately operated Bremerton
Sports Center. While the park provides significant recreational opportunities, the existing
dirt soccer fields are not functional due to dusty, abrasive conditions that limit usability and
create safety concerns. The existing restroom that serves the soccer fields, constructed in
1996, is a substandard pit toilet that is not ADA-accessible, and the site lacks accessible
pathways connecting key amenities.
The proposed project will convert one existing all-weather dirt soccer field into a synthetic
turf field to restore safe, high-quality playing conditions and enable consistent, year-round
use. The project also includes the construction of a new ADA-accessible restroom and the
installation of accessible parking and pathways. These improvements will enhance safety,
accessibility, and overall functionality while maximizing the use of existing infrastructure.
The project will primarily support youth soccer while also accommodating lacrosse, rugby,
flag football, ultimate frisbee, and other youth field sports, as well as recreational leagues
and tournaments. A second field conversion, converting the field lighting to LED, along with
additional ADA-accessible pathways and a connecting stairway, is planned through
separate funding sources to further expand capacity and access at the site.
Project Factsheet
Page 7 of 14 05/18/2026
#3:PROJECT DESIGN - FIT Describe how the design aligns with the
need, location, and project scope. Describe how the design
addresses any constraints and whether the design provides
access for users of all abilities.
The project design emphasizes upgrading and maximizing the functionality of existing
facilities at Pendergast Regional Park, directly addressing the need to improve playability,
safety, and year-round usability of the current soccer fields. By converting one existing all-
weather dirt field to synthetic turf at its current location, the design efficiently leverages
established infrastructure (including field layout, lighting, parking, and supporting
amenities) while addressing issues caused by the degraded dirt surface. This approach
minimizes site disturbance and reduces costs while delivering a high-quality, durable
playing surface that meets the growing demand for competitive youth sports.
Existing site limitations include a substandard, non-accessible pit toilet (built in 1996) and a
lack of ADA-compliant pathways connecting key amenities. The project addresses these
deficiencies by constructing a new accessible restroom, adding ADA-accessible parking, and
installing pathways to ensure safe, equitable access throughout the site.
Design constraints include working within the existing field footprint and surrounding park
features and integrating improvements without disrupting ongoing park activities. These
constraints are managed by enhancing existing disturbed areas and utilizing current
systems such as lighting, curbing, and parking. Grading and circulation improvements are
incorporated to ensure ADA-compliant access throughout the project area. The addition of
accessible parking, pathways, and a new restroom facility further promotes inclusivity,
allowing users of all abilities to access the field and amenities safely and comfortably.
Overall, the design provides a practical, cost-effective solution that aligns with existing site
conditions while significantly improving accessibility, safety, and recreational
opportunities.
Project Factsheet
Page 8 of 14 05/18/2026
#4:PROJECT DESIGN - BUDGET Provide an overview of the project
budget and how the cost estimate was determined. If the
proposal includes additional site design and permitting, what is
the process and anticipated schedule to be construction-ready?
The project budget is based on completed design work, recent comparable park projects
(2025), and a 30% engineer’s estimate prepared by Bruce Dees & Associates, a landscape
architecture firm specializing in athletic facilities. The project is currently advancing to 90%
construction drawings, providing a reliable and refined cost estimate. To date, the city has
invested $214,225 in pre-agreement design and planning to position the project for
implementation.
Remaining administrative and soft costs total $157,034 and include final bid documents,
construction administration, permitting, and a cultural resource survey. Development costs
are estimated at $1,842,966 and include site work, utilities, a prefabricated restroom,
synthetic turf field installation, landscaping, hardscape improvements, and site amenities
such as fencing, goals, and bleachers.
The project is well-positioned to proceed upon grant award. Design will reach 90%
completion in 2026, with permitting and final construction documents to follow. Bidding is
anticipated by January 2028, with construction beginning by June 2028 and completion in
early 2029. A qualified consultant will manage the project and oversee construction, with
City of Bremerton Parks staff providing oversight to ensure quality, schedule, and budget
adherence.

#5:PROJECT ENGAGEMENT - METHODS How were the people who
will be most impacted by the project engaged? Describe what
methods were used and the populations engaged, including
underserved populations and/or Native American tribes.
Describe the relevance of that participation for the population
size, demographic, or socioeconomic conditions of the
community or service area.
#6:PROJECT ENGAGEMENT - COMMUNITY How has community
input influenced the project design?
The proposed project reflects nearly two decades of ongoing community engagement and
aligns with priorities identified in the City’s Parks, Recreation, and Open Space (PROS) Plans
since 2007. Updated every six years, most recently in 2026, the PROS Plan is shaped through
a 12–18-month outreach process that includes community surveys, public meetings,
stakeholder interviews, and targeted efforts to reach a broad cross-section of Bremerton
residents.
In addition to citywide engagement, this project has been a regular topic at Parks &
Recreation Commission meetings since 2023. The 30% design has been presented and
refined in public meetings, providing opportunities for community members, user groups,
and local sports organizations to share input. In parallel, staff conducted targeted, one-on-
one meetings with key user groups and stakeholders to gather more detailed feedback and
ensure their perspectives were incorporated into the design. Outreach associated with a
Washington State Department of Commerce grant (which funded the 30% design) also
included communication with the Suquamish Tribe to ensure awareness and an
opportunity for comment.
The project serves a census tract identified as underserved, which supports a reduced 10%
match and highlights the importance of equitable access. Engagement methods were
appropriate to the community’s size and demographics, ensuring participation from youth,
families, and lower-income residents who rely on public recreation facilities.
Community input has directly shaped the project’s scope and design by highlighting the
need to improve field conditions within the existing site boundaries. The project has
frequently been discussed at Bremerton Parks & Recreation Commission meetings, where
the 2023 30% design has been reviewed and publicly discussed. Feedback from these
meetings consistently supported upgrading the existing all-weather field to enhance safety,
usability, and year-round availability, rather than creating new park areas. Consequently,
the design intentionally focuses on renovating an existing field in its current location and
making specific accessibility improvements through a new restroom, grading, ADA-
compliant pathways, and parking. Community input also stressed the importance of
preserving the current field layout and lighting setup to reduce costs and make the best use
of existing infrastructure. This straightforward approach reflects a shared understanding
that the best solution is to modernize and improve what already exists, rather than
undertaking more complex or disruptive changes. Overall, community feedback has shown
that a practical, efficient design can meet user needs while respecting the site’s limitations.

#7:PROJECT ENGAGEMENT - PARTNERSHIPS Describe any
community partnerships that are providing support for the
project whether through financial, in-kind, project delivery, or
other means. Partnerships may be formal or informal. Describe
the significance of the partnerships within the community or
service area.
The City of Bremerton has built strong partnerships with public, nonprofit, and private
stakeholders that provide funding, technical expertise, and community support for this
project.

#8:SUSTAINABILITY Please discuss how the project’s location or
design supports the applicant’s organization’s sustainability
plan or how the ecological, economic, and social benefits and
impacts were considered in the project plan.
#9:FACILITY MANAGEMENT Does the applicant have the ability to
operate and maintain the facility?
The proposed conversion of an existing all-weather soccer field to synthetic turf at
Pendergast Regional Park, along with ADA-accessible parking, pathways, and a new
restroom, supports sustainable development by maximizing the existing sports complex
rather than expanding into new areas. The project transforms an unused dirt field into a
durable, all-weather surface that reduces maintenance needs, minimizes weather-related
closures, and extends the facility's lifespan and capacity.
Economically, the project leverages existing infrastructure to enable year-round use and
attract regional events. A 2019 analysis indicates the improvements could generate more
than 11,000 additional annual visitors, $1.0–$1.7 million in new spending, and 11–19 jobs,
while reducing the need for residents to travel outside the area for recreation.
Socially, the project expands access to safe, reliable, and inclusive recreational activities.
ADA improvements enhance equitable access for all users, while increased field availability
supports youth sports, community health, and year-round participation, advancing the
City's broader sustainability goals and improving a key regional recreational resource.
Yes. Pendergast Regional Park is Bremerton’s only regional park and is owned, operated,
and maintained by the City of Bremerton Parks and Recreation Department. Established in
1941, the Department has over 85 years of experience managing parks, facilities, and
community recreation programs, and is funded through the City’s general fund. The
Department oversees a comprehensive system of parks and programs that are consistently
maintained and well utilized.
The Department has the staffing, operational systems, and funding necessary to
successfully operate and maintain the proposed improvements, including routine cleaning,
ongoing maintenance, and scheduling to ensure safe, reliable, and efficient year-round use
of the facility.

#10:AVAILABILITY When the project is complete, how often will it be
available for competitive youth sports in a calendar year?
#11:READINESS TO PROCEED What is the timeline for completing the
project? Will the sponsor be able to complete the project within 3
years?
The field will be available for competitive youth sports year-round, seven days a week,
including both daytime and evening hours. The all-weather synthetic turf surface
significantly reduces weather-related closures, ensuring consistent and reliable access
throughout the year. Routine maintenance will be scheduled to minimize disruptions.
Synthetic turf fields are designed to support a variety of youth sports, including soccer,
lacrosse, rugby, ultimate frisbee, flag football, and other outdoor activities. To preserve field
quality and longevity, uses that could damage the synthetic turf—such as golfing, shot put,
javelin, discus throwing, bicycling, fireworks, and similar activities—will be prohibited.
The field will be available for reservation by youth sports organizations, schools, and
community members. The Department will provide a web-based reservation system to
facilitate convenient online scheduling, with additional support available through the
Recreation Program Coordinator. The Department will also coordinate with local sports
groups, community organizations, schools, and families to ensure fair and efficient access.
The Pendergast Regional Park Master Plan and 30% design are complete, and 90%
construction drawings are underway, with finalization expected by the end of 2026. Upon
grant award (anticipated summer 2027), the city will finalize bid documents, secure permits,
and begin bidding by late 2027. Construction is anticipated to begin in 2028, with
completion and opening in early 2029.
The city has extensive experience delivering capital park projects and will use established
procurement processes to hire qualified contractors and consultants. City staff will oversee
coordination to ensure the project stays on schedule and within budget.
Existing partnerships, secured and anticipated funding, and strong community support
position the project for timely and successful completion. Fundraising for a second synthetic
field, additional ADA pathways, and LED conversion will not impact the schedule or delivery
of this RCO-funded project scope.

SUMMARY:
The Circle Fountain located at the Conference Center Plaza has not been in operation for several
years. Staff evaluated options to repurpose the space in addition to repairing the fountain and the
preference was to proceed with a plan to repair. Over this past winter Parks reached out to three
different vendors to evaluate its condition and to receive bids to complete its repair so it would be
operational again. We received two separate quotes, and the third company, who installed the
fountain, was non-responsive. PumpTech Integration was the lowest bid between the two companies
that submitted.

Per the City's Financial Goals and Policies, the target ending fund balance is 8.5% of annual expenditures excluding capital. The
target fund balance for the 2026 budget, as amended, is $5,446,822. The estimated ending fund balance after the proposed
amendments is $8,688,518, which is higher than the target amount by $3,241,696.
The 2026 budget as shown above, includes an ending fund balance which exceeds the target, and is increased from the previously
adopted budget by $438,344.
The financial planning goal is to maintain an ending fund balance recommended by the Government Finance Officers Association
(GFOA) of 16.67%, or $10,682,179. The proposed budget with amendments would require an additional $1,993,661 in budgetary
revenues or reductions in expenditures.

ADDENDUM B: BREMERTON CITY COUNCIL CODE OF CONDUCT
17
Purpose and Guiding Principles
The Bremerton City Council is committed to conducting the public’s business with
professionalism, respect, transparency, and integrity. This Code of Conduct (CoC) establishes
expectations regarding how Councilmembers interact with one another, with City staff, and with
the public. It should be read alongside the most recently adopted Council Rules and Procedures.
Where procedural questions arise, the Rules and Procedures shall govern.
1. Conduct Among Councilmembers
Our shared responsibility is to uphold public trust and ensure that decision-making reflects the
best interests of the entire community.
1.1 Commitment to Respectful Deliberation
Each Councilmember brings unique experiences, perspectives, and priorities. Healthy
disagreement is part of democratic governance, but it must occur in a manner that
maintains civility, avoids personal attacks, and supports productive dialogue.
Councilmembers will:
• Focus critiques on ideas, not individuals.
• Avoid hostile, disparaging, or inflammatory comments.
• Speak to one another with professionalism, even in moments of strong
disagreement.
• Demonstrate patience and active listening.
• Uphold decorum, including refraining from interruptions or side conversations.
1.2 Decorum in Public Meetings
Councilmembers shall preserve order during meetings and follow the direction of the
Chair. Members must confine their remarks to the agenda item under discussion and help
maintain a constructive environment for deliberation.
Councilmembers will always maintain professional language, including avoiding profanity
or language that could reasonably be considered offensive, intimidating, or disrespectful.
1.3 Role of the Chair
The Chair is responsible for keeping debate focused and ensuring adherence to
parliamentary procedure. Disagreements with the Chair’s handling of an item may be
raised respectfully through the appropriate procedural motion.
1.4 Addressing Personal Concerns
If a Councilmember believes their integrity or motives have been questioned, they may
request a “point of personal privilege.” Such matters should be handled briefly,
respectfully, and under the Chair’s direction.
1.5 Ethical Expectations
18
Councilmembers must act in a manner that upholds the dignity of the office, protects the
public trust, and reflects fairness, equity, and impartiality.
2. Conduct With City Staff and City Attorney
The governance of the City of Bremerton requires the coordinated efforts of both the City Council,
in its role as policymaker, and City staff, who administer and implement those policies.
Accordingly, all parties are expected to work cooperatively and demonstrate mutual respect for
each other’s roles, responsibilities, and contributions to the community.
2.1 Professionalism and Mutual Respect
Councilmembers shall treat the Mayor and all City employees with courtesy and
professionalism. Staff must have a safe and respectful work environment free from
intimidation or undue pressure.
2.2 Clear Communication Channels
To ensure consistent information sharing and avoid duplicative work:
• Questions or requests for information should be brought to Study Session for
discussion with all Councilmembers. If the matter is time-sensitive, the request
should be routed through the Council President with a copy to the Legislative Office
Manager (or Legislative Assistant). This process is especially important when a
request may require staff time, involve input from a consultant or contractor, or be
relevant to all Councilmembers.
• Department Directors should be copied on inquiries relevant to their operations.
• Responses provided to one Councilmember will be made accessible to all
Councilmembers.
2.3 Appropriate Role and Boundaries
Councilmembers shall not direct staff work, become involved in personnel matters, or
attempt to influence operational or administrative decisions.
Concerns about staff performance must be directed privately to the HR Director and not
raised publicly or directly with the employee.
2.4 City Attorney
General legal questions should be routed through the Council President, with a copy to the
Legislative Office Manager, to ensure work can be coordinated and documented.
Individual Councilmembers may contact the City Attorney directly only for confidential,
city-business matters that require legal confidentiality. The City Attorney’s duty is to the
municipal corporation, not any individual.
3. Conduct With the Public
Welcoming the public and ensuring they feel heard is central to meaningful democratic
engagement. Councilmembers should conduct themselves without any sign of bias or disrespect
toward those who come forward to speak, and should make every effort to listen with fairness,
openness, and impartiality.
3.1 Creating a Welcoming Environment
19
Community members who participate in meetings, whether to provide testimony, ask
questions, or observe, should feel respected and heard.
Councilmembers will:
• Greet speakers courteously.
• Demonstrate attentive listening.
• Avoid debating or belittling community members who participate in meetings.
3.2 No Promises or Commitments
Councilmembers must not make assurances of specific outcomes (e.g., solving a
constituent issue) or commitments on behalf of the Council, Mayor, or City staff.
Constituents should be referred to Bremerton1 for service requests.
3.3 Speaking With One Voice
When discussing Council actions in the community or with media, Councilmembers shall
present the collective decision of the Council accurately and respectfully, even when they
personally disagree with the outcome.
Personal opinions should be clearly identified as such.
4. Digital Communication and Social Media
Digital communication offers valuable opportunities to engage with the public, but it also carries
risk when not approached thoughtfully. Online interactions should reflect the same
professionalism and standards of conduct expected during in-person dialogue. Councilmembers
must exercise care, knowing that emails, texts, and social media content are public-facing and
often considered public records.
4.1 Navigating Digital Platforms
Digital platforms extend the public’s access to elected officials but also increase the risk of
misinterpretation, misinformation, and public record violations. Councilmembers will:
• Conduct themselves online with the same professionalism expected in person.
• Avoid posting defamatory, disrespectful, or misleading commentary.
• Not disparage the Mayor, City staff, colleagues, City projects, or the public.
• Treat emails, texts, and social media messages as potential public records.
• Clearly distinguish personal opinions from official City positions.
5. Harassment, Discrimination, and Retaliation
A safe, respectful environment is essential for effective governance. The Council has zero
tolerance for conduct that creates fear, exclusion, or hostility. All Councilmembers, Mayor, City
staff, and the public are entitled to be treated with dignity.
5.1 Social Interaction
Councilmembers shall not engage in or tolerate behaviors that constitute harassment,
discrimination, or retaliation based on any protected class. Allegations shall be handled in
accordance with City policies and referred to the Director of Human Resources.
20
6. Conflicts of Interest
Councilmembers are entrusted with public authority and must act exclusively in the interest of the
community they serve. To maintain public trust, Councilmembers must avoid decisions or actions
that could create, or appear to create, personal benefit or preferential advantage. Transparent
disclosure and recusal, when appropriate, reinforce fairness and accountability.
6.1 Identifying Conflict of Interest
Councilmembers must comply with RCW 42.23, Code of Ethics, and avoid real or
perceived conflicts of interest. Councilmembers must:
• Disclose any potential conflict on the record.
• Recuse themselves when required.
• Seek legal advice when uncertain.
7. Violations and Consequences
Adherence to this CoC reflects a commitment to Bremerton’s values and to the integrity of its
governing body. When conduct falls short of expectations, the Council must have a clear,
consistent structure for response.
7.1 Ethical Conduct
Alleged violations of this CoC will be reviewed in accordance with the Council’s published
Rules and Procedures. Potential corrective actions when violations occur include:
• Verbal admonition
• Written reprimand
• Censure
• Required training
• Removal from officer or chair role, and/or committee assignments
8. Media Communications
Public communication helps shape community understanding of government actions.
Councilmembers should ensure that their engagement with media is accurate, respectful, and
clear in distinguishing personal views from official positions. Consistency in messaging protects
the credibility of the Council and supports public trust.
8.1 Communication Standards
When speaking to the media, Councilmembers must clarify whether they are sharing
personal views or Council-approved positions. Official City statements are issued by the
Mayor or a designee, unless otherwise directed.
9. Generally Agreed to Principles of Conduct
These principles represent the shared behavioral standards the Council strives to demonstrate in
all interactions. This extends to interactions with each other, with staff, and with the community.
They reflect core values that guide daily conduct and long-term service, contributing to a culture
of respect, responsibility, and ethical decision-making.
• Keep promises.
• Be dependable.
• Participate and be available.
• Demonstrate patience.
• Show empathy.
• Hold onto ethical principles under stress.
21
• Listen attentively.
• Be Prepared.
• Keep integrity intact.
• Overcome discouragement.
• Model a professional manner.
• Respect one another as individuals.
• Respect validity of different opinions.
• Respect the democratic process.
• Respect the community we serve.
• Respect diversity, equity, and inclusion in
public service and policymaking.
• Commit to ongoing professional
development, ethics training, and
accountability to the public

Committee shall then share its recommendation with City Council.
(4) Upon receiving a recommendation from the Public Works Committee, City

name proposals provided in BMC 11.18.080(c). If Public Works & Utilities determines the
honorary street sign requires replacement, costs for replacement will be the responsibility of the

To: Sally Hass <Sallychass@gmail.com>, Geneese <Jfsk8r@msn.com>
Lean Public Comment Draft (185 Words)
Good evening, City Council. My name is Sally Hass, a local property owner and developer.
Bremerton’s partnerships rely on public trust. But the Bremerton Housing Authority’s recent behavior regarding the Harrison Heights project completely shatters that trust.
At Monday’s Planning Commission meeting, BHA requested to fast-track this project by completely bypassing the scheduled July 20th public hearing. This comes after BHA
canceled the May meeting because they weren't ready, leaving the public with just one session on June 15th. Furthermore, they have failed to post physical zoning change signs or engage property owners within the 500-foot boundary.
Look across the Sound. A massive forensic audit just revealed that the homelessness authority in Seattle has a 44-million-dollar budget deficit and millions in completely
unaccounted-for funds due to a total lack of oversight.
Bremerton is not immune to this. When an agency attempts to dodge public scrutiny, ignore neighbors, and rush city leadership into skipping steps, it is a glaring red flag.
The public is owed due process. I urge this Council to reject any attempt to fast-track this process and maintain the scheduled July 20th hearing. Thank you.

Misrepresentation Of Law Was Deployed To Gag FoSC Despite OPMA Violation
Kylie Finnell’s “Keep in mind that public recognition part of our meeting is not required ” was
and will remain incorrect. Under Washington’s Constitution, OPMA requires an open
unrestricted public comment opportunity. RCW 42.30.240(1) and Washington’s liberal free
speech mandate cannot be locally restricted to hide city government malfeasance.
This was city government’s misrepresentation of law used to gag FoSC and allies in our
advocacy against partisan favoritism in government, for integrity in government, and on
behalf of fair humane treatment of the low income and homeless of Bremerton.
Friends of Smith Cove in Evergreen Park, Robin Weldin and Jose Camacho, members of Rock
The Block, did a very basic Civics 101 American thing. Starting in 2023, we accused a municipal
government of favoritism and corruption. It was cruel and lawless towards the homeless and it
was tampering with public processes including the Shoreline Management Act.

FoSC Comment - 1 of 20.
“More speech, not enforced silence”
City government is misleading the public, including as to the Bremerton Housing Authority
shelter / transitional housing project in the mixed use zone of Harrison Heights. By illegally
gagging FoSC and allies, the city prevents our open unrestricted dissent and counter speech.
“If there be time to expose through discussion, the falsehoods and fallacies, to avert the evil
by the processes of education, the remedy to be applied is more speech, not enforced silence.”
Counterspeech Doctrine. The planning commission hearing of 6-15-26 illegally deprived us of
our unrestricted public comment opportunity under RCW 42.30.240(1).
We will be using this OPMA right at our next appearance before the planning commission for
counter speech to inform Harrison Heights residents they are being misled by council member
Denise Frey and other city government actors.
The planning commission has previously violated OPMA. The DCD / developer-dominated
planning commission adopted council’s “pause” gag on 10-20-25 as FoSC came to its body to
make our SMP comments and objections. Without notice, it declared a “consensus” to
eliminate its open unrestricted “Call to the public;” it then obstructed objections about the
Andrea Spencer’s DCD’s intentional rigging of the Evergreen Pointe, and a conflicted SWG
partner Jack Paauw tainting the Commission: Elimination Of Call To The Public , My Comment
Interfered With, Robin’s Comment, Commissioner Browning Defends 1 st Amendment Then
Silenced. Commissioner Tift obstructed my comment, and lied and deflected when Robin
spoke.
We subsequently discovered DCD kept our SMP participation and comments from Ecology.
We hereby put the planning commission and this city government on notice that we will
pursue OPMA’s “personal liability” penalties against commissioners if we are deprived in this
way again. We intend to use our OPMA right under RCW 42.30.240(1) to inform the public of
this city government’s routine deceit and to counter city government’s intentional
disinformation.
FoSC Contentions & History: A Servile Municipal Government Serves A Developer Cartel
No portapotty sanitation for the homeless, but the city’s rigging of the $57 million dollar
Sound West Group Evergreen Pointe project was perpetrated over years then covered up for
over years for another round of malfeasance (including the current SMP proposal).
I commented on 12-18-24 and thereafter that as a person of color, if law could be deformed
and erased by government officials at the mere whim of the greedy wealthy, I would not be
safe. Eventually, this came to pass. Sound West Group, worth $100 of millions of dollars, and
with its numerous social media and governmental mouth pieces, sent a demand letter on 9-9-
FoSC Comment - 2 of 20.
25 to a servile city government in response to the public’s outcry at city council’s 9-3-25 MFTE
hearing of council’s capitulation to Sound West Group’s constant thirst for public monies,
coddling, and favors.
Citing our social media posts and public forum comments, Sound West Group claimed we
threatened its members during public comment and after, and requested city government
enforcement of “respectful” public comment. Taking up SWG’s trope, council member Jennifer
Chamberlin continued the smear against this author in reaching out to her Heathen’s Bakery
followers and called me an “extremist” and “domestic terrorist” while her friend Denise Frey
invoked “they’re going to be killing me” – accompanied also with multiple invocations of the
need for police or security intervention as a result of my citation to duties of impartiality and
law as the standard for ethical governmental action. Without a single citation to controlling
precedent, a “hostile work environment” announced as somehow superseding free speech
criticism of government by Kylie Finnell, Andrea Spencer Jane Rebelowski and the rest of a
petulant whining council. “Hostile work environment” was actually a shared pretext between
Spencer and Rebelowski even as they squabbled against each other for power and influence in
the insiders’ club. See Spencer’s “Formal Complaint” here.
As a person who has experienced homelessness, I pointed out on 12-18-24 the 11-15-23
fiasco of Sound West Group friend Chris Tibbs and city government using the plight of the
homeless for lip service and PR through Tibbs apparent fake “donation” to “combat”
homelessness with much applause, emoting, and smiles from council. This governmental
mendacity and lip service – exploiting the homeless for PR - has continued to date.

“Hose-The-Homeless Mockler Uses 'Kimmy' To Dismiss Critic, Then Lies About This &

FoSC’s first clue of corruption – the rigged $57 million dollar Sound West Group Evergreen
Pointe project - resulted in our asking for accountability; we were stonewalled and lied to.
After the first year of this, city government responded to our civic engagement by installing
the private beneficiary of its favoritism into the planning commission, and the first
recommendatory vote of that Sound West Group agent, Jack Paauw, was to vote for the
removal of our right to object to defective projects such as and including the rigged Evergreen
Pointe project. See presentations underlying and including Ordinance 5506 including: 12-18-24

'Housekeeping')” https://youtu.be/CTiUNcVn61I Sound West Groupie council member Denise
FoSC Comment - 3 of 20.
Frey lauded the new commissioner Jack Paauw, and bowed yet again to her favorite developer.
Subsequently, a “markup” error led to council cryptically amending the elimination of our due
process to object to defective development projects in Ordinance 5508 to make sure it stuck.
This cannot be emphasized enough. City government has continued to use its entire
apparatus to protect Sound West Group and smother our voice and our resort to the legal
process on 12-18-24 and thereafter as a result of our correct criticism of the Evergreen Pointe.
When you watch me here https://youtu.be/S5fvybdYCfo, I was just realizing what this
municipal government was attempting, and how low it was willing to stoop for Wesley Larson.
Mockler Admission Shows “One Voice” Policy Should Be Abolished
We now know council has long understood and agreed with the contention of FoSC that the
Evergreen Pointe was a piecemealing rig . Council member Anna Mockler ’s March 2025 email
inquiries to the Department of Ecology (here) acknowledges city government’s rigging of the
Evergreen Pointe project. That rigging started with the rigging of the 2019-2021 SMP periodic
review process which is being hidden again in the current SMP proposal.
Council member Anna Mockler ’s March 2025 email inquiries to the Department of Ecology (here
and attached) acknowledging city government’s rigging of the Evergreen Pointe project (owned
by Wesley Larson and “Sound West Group”); this demonstrates the pernicious insidious effect of
council’s “One Voice” policy. This policy encourages the concealment of principle and wrongs,
the deprivation of crucial information the public is entitled to, and the gagging of the voices of
elected officials who may hold opinions and beliefs at odds with dominant private interests such
as the Sound West Group oligopoly or cartel of this town. Despite Anna Mockler’s
acknowledgment of the FoSC contention of DCD’s partisanship towards Sound West Group, this
council member and retired ecologist has been mute and inert about the subversion of
Washington’s premiere environmental protection of our shoreline and waters, the Shoreline
Management Act, which is inextricably intertwined with SEPA protections, Washington’s
Constitution, and the foundational public trust doctrine.
FoSC has repeatedly made these points:
1. The public has a First Amendment right to receive full material information at meetings and
hearings. This applies to information from city government presenters, and members of the
public who wish to inform other public members in the public forum.
2. Under this right, it is a First Amendment violation for city government to lie to or mislead the
public in public-facing governmental processes and other official utterances. In various state
statutes we’ve cited bearing on the ethical duties of public officers and public servants, this is
literally a crime committed by or upon government officials, and upon the public. We are
entitled to the integrity of forthright candor from our officials and in our public processes.
FoSC Comment - 4 of 20.
3. Washington has long had a strong policy of transparency and accountability which prohibits
the government’s cherry-picking of information to share selectively with the public. This is
declared in the Public Records Act and in the Open Public Meetings Act: “The people of this
state do not yield their sovereignty to the agencies which serve them. The people, in delegating
authority, do not give their public servants the right to decide what is good for the people to
know and what is not good for them to know. The people insist on remaining informed and
informing the people's public servants of their views so that they may retain control over the
instruments they have created. For these reasons, even when not required by law, public
agencies are encouraged to incorporate and accept public comment during their decision-
making process.”
4. Formal public-facing presentations which mislead the public, especially intended to mislead
the public, are First Amendment violations, leading to or amounting to Due Process violations,
and this is routinely done by city government actors including the city attorney’s office, and
Andrea Spencer’s Department of Community Development.
5. This city government deceit as policy and official mendacity persistently inures to the
benefit of the dominant Sound West Group oligopoly and its sycophants, and to the detriment
of those manipulated by city government’s calculated deception, omission and the misleading
cherry-picking of information: the ordinary working class or low income / no income resident.
These points are all manifest in DCD’s rigging of the Evergreen Pointe project, and of the
2019-2021 SMP periodic review process of the current SMP proposal. Prohibited piecemealing
SMP provisions are at the heart of malfeasance because they directly contravene the mandate
of RCW 90.58.020. The same deceit and mendacity was fully deployed in the half year of the
so-called “pause.”
City Government’s Spot Zoning Disinformation
The planning commission meeting / hearing of 6-15-26 appears to have been the culmination
of council member Denise Frey’s colluding with Andrea Spencer and coddling developers to
dis-inform and incite Harrison Heights residents against the Bremerton Housing Authority’s
transitional / supportive shelter project. See: “BHA Shelter Project Sabotage By City
Misrepresentation Continues - Planning Commission 6-15-26 .”
In support of our collusion observation about Frey, we place Denise Frey’s emails here. They
were obtained under the Public Records Act. Frey reached out Andrea Spencer in March 2025
admitting to Spencer she had been asked to keep the site confidential, and expressing to
Spencer her desire to use the Opportunity Zone 2.0 for the area surrounding the “high value”
BHA site with “great views.” The hyped up spectre of “spot zoning” at the planning commission
meeting of 6-15-26 seemed to be a theme of both DCD and opponents of the shelter /
FoSC Comment - 5 of 20.
transitional housing project during Garrett Jackson’s misleading presentation. The spot zoning
scare tactic was first publicly deployed by Denise Frey in the study session of 9-24-25. This is
Frey’s typical forked tongue sophistry. Her spot zoning invocation on 9-24-25 was the first
public sign that city government agreed with the FoSC contention that DCD had rigged the
Evergreen Pointe project. See: “After City's 2-Yr Silence, Frey Proves Knowledge Of Illegality Of
Larson's Evergreen Pointe Project” https://youtu.be/J1eZZhpD7WE “
“I want to support you. When we start talking about uh piecemeal
zoning - taking a piece out of a plan, that's what happened with
Evergreen Pointe. Sound familiar? Um, so let's be prepared for that.
That's one element of this. It's what we call spot zoning. Okay?
There's going to be some backlash. There's going to be some push
back on that. We need to be prepared for it. I'm really uh sad uh
that uh we don't have anyone I don't think from DCD here.”
Frey dramatically asks council “remember that?” They all remember. Everyone in council and
very likely the commission knows about and agrees the Evergreen Pointe project was rigged
by Andrea Spencer; they just resent FoSC calls this out and that we demand DCD planners be
terminated because of the rigging they’ve perpetrated; It is malfeasance and a fundamental
betrayal of the public trust.
Since 2023, FoSC has exposed and condemned DCD’s rigging of the Sound West Group
Evergreen Pointe project, or in my neighborhood, the “Shadowcaster.” This project is in the
jurisdiction of the Shoreline Management Act and this constitutionally based expression of the
public trust doctrine “t o prevent the inherent harm in an uncoordinated and piecemeal
development of the state's shorelines” (RCW 90.58.020) bars DCD’s piecemealing perpetrated
in the 2019-2021 SMP periodic review process. The Shoreline Management Act has an
inflexible prohibition against piecemealing intended to protect the fragile shoreline and
waters. This shoreline spot zoning prohibition does not apply to the BHA shelter / transitional
housing project.
The city is aware of the illegality of its position; it merely wants to destroy the shelter project.
Our prior arguments:

Basically, where dwellings or hotels are allowed in zoning - so are shelters and transitional
housing. This body of law is pretty simply an attempt at fairness.

Our previous written arguments about the BHA project belonging in “mxed use” zoning of
Harrison Heights remains valid, but now city government is also contradicting the additional
recently passed and effective HB2266.
FoSC had tried to warn the public that Denise Frey’s belated admission about the
piecemealing rig of the Evergreen Pointe rig was the beginning of a developer sycophant’s
dual purpose sabotage: sabotage of the shelter project accompanied by the silencing of the
homeless, and advocates for the homeless. On 9-24-25, two stagecrafted study session
performances were deployed by city council members and the city attorneys office: 1. setting
the stage to sabotage the BHA shelter / transitional housing project; 2. setting the stage to
obstruct and/or gag FoSC in the public forum of Norm Dicks building chambers for council
and planning commission.
The Public Forum Is Where Citizens Can Inform Each Other At The Seat Of Government
Courts have consistently maintained that the Federal and Washington Constitutions enshrine a
right to receive information from government . "[T]he State may not, consistently with the spirit
of the First Amendment, contract the spectrum of available knowledge.” Griswold v.
Connecticut, 381 U.S. 479 482 (1965). Time, Inc. v. Hill, 385 U.S. 374 (1967); Stanley v. Georgia,
394 U.S. 557 (1969); Kleindienst v. Mandel, 408 U.S. 753 (1972); First National Bank of Boston v.
Bellotti, 435 U.S. 765 (1978); Fritz v. Gorton, 83 Wash. 2d 275 (1974); Stockton v. Brown, 152 F.
4th 1124 (9th Circuit, 2025); Voters Educ. Comm v. Washington State Public Disclosure
Commission, 161 Wash.2d 470, 166 P.3d 1174 (2007); Bradburn v. North Cent. Regional Library
Dist., 231 P.3d 166, 168 Wash. 2d 789 (2010).
“… in a variety of contexts this Court has held that the First Amendment protects
the right to receive information and ideas , the freedom to hear as well as the
freedom to speak. The reason for this is that the First Amendment protects a
process, in Justice Brandeis' words, "reason as applied through public
discussion , " Whitney v. California, 274 U. S. 357, 375 (1927) (concurring opinion);
and the right to speak and hear—including the right to inform others and to be
informed about public issues—are inextricably part of that process. The
FoSC Comment - 7 of 20.
freedom to speak and the freedom to hear are inseparable; they are two sides
of the same coin. But the coin itself is the process of thought and discussion.
The activity of speakers becoming listeners and listeners becoming speakers in
the vital interchange of thought is the "means indispensable to the discovery
and spread of political truth." Ibid.; see Terminiello v. Chicago, 337 U.S. 1(1949).
Its protection is "a fundamental principle of the American government."
Whitney v. California, supra, at 375. The First Amendment means that
Government has no power to thwart the process of free discussion , to "abridge"
the freedoms necessary to make that process work. ...”
Kleindienst v. Mandel, 408 U.S. 753 (1972).
Bremerton city government chronically violates the First Amendment by preventing and
obstructing the public’s right to receive information as part of formal meetings, hearings,
public processes and presentations.
Washington has a strong policy of transparency with the same premise underlying both the
Open Public Meetings Act and the Public Records Act:
“… The people of this state do not yield their sovereignty to the agencies which
serve them. The people, in delegating authority, do not give their public
servants the right to decide what is good for the people to know and what is
not good for them to know. The people insist on remaining informed and
informing the people's public servants of their views so that they may retain
control over the instruments they have created. ...”
When public officers and public servants mislead or misrepresent during formal hearings and
presentations we cannot intelligently meaningfully participate in fair self-governance.
Dishonesty is not an option. Washington bars pubic officers and public servants from
misleading the public by criminalizing this kind of deception and First Amendment violation.
RCW 42.20.040 False report: “Every public officer who shall knowingly make any false or
misleading statement in any official report or statement, under circumstances not otherwise
prohibited by law, shall be guilty of a gross misdemeanor." See also RCW 9A.76.175. This city
government’s deceit-as-policy violates the duty of candor and the duty of impartiality and the
residents of Harrison Heights are currently being abused in this way by Denise Frey and other
city government actors.
Despite duties of candor city government seems addicted to deceit and manipulation of the
democratic process. The city has a choice now. Actually engage the full spectrum of that process,
including honest discours through free speech or continued dishonesty and servility to a dominant
arrogant private interest which out of pique is willing to encourage its city sycophants to destroy the
hope of the poor and displaced.
FoSC Comment - 8 of 20.
Again, we put the planning commission and this city government on notice we will pursue
OPMA’s “personal liability” penalties and any other available remedy against commissioners if
we are deprived of OPMA public comment rights under RCW 42.30.240(1). We intend to
inform the public of this city government’s routine deceit and to counter city government’s
intentional disinformation with honest candid talk and accurately stated law.
Because of the broad sweep of Washington’s Constitution, Article 1, Section 5, and principles
of Constitutional supremacy Bremerton must give effect to that broad sweep:
"Every person may freely speak, write and publish on all subjects …”
Offensive public comment is a viewpoint that cannot be discriminated against. If city
government is offended its corruption is being exposed, stop being corrupt. The local whims
and resentments of petulant city officers and their favorite private interests should not touch
this fundamental democratic freedom. The Constitutional mandate of Article 1, Section 5, and
RCW 42.30.240(1) should be given full effect.

RCW 42.30.240 Public comment. (1) Except in an emergency
situation, the governing body of a public agency shall provide an
opportunity at or before every regular meeting at which final action
is taken for public comment. The public comment required under this
section may be taken orally at a public meeting, or by providing an
opportunity for written testimony to be submitted before or at the
meeting. If the governing body accepts written testimony, this
testimony must be distributed to the governing body. The governing
body may set a reasonable deadline for the submission of written
testimony before the meeting.
(2) Upon the request of any individual who will have difficulty
attending a meeting of the governing body of a public agency by reason
of disability, limited mobility, or for any other reason that makes
physical attendance at a meeting difficult, the governing body shall,
when feasible, provide an opportunity for that individual to provide
oral comment at the meeting remotely if oral comment from other
members of the public will be accepted at the meeting.
(3) Nothing in this section prevents a governing body from
allowing public comment on items not on the meeting agenda.
(4) Nothing in this section diminishes the authority of governing
bodies to deal with interruptions under RCW 42.30.050, limits the
ability of the governing body to put limitations on the time available
for public comment or on how public comment is accepted, or requires a
governing body to accept public comment that renders orderly conduct
of the meeting unfeasible. [2022 c 115 s 13.]
