Project Description The City of Port Orchard proposes to prepare its 2024 periodic update to the Comprehensive Plan, a subarea plan, an update to the critical areas code for best available science, and updates to development regulations to implement these plans.

The maximum size of emailed documents shall be 20 mb. The Bethel Sedgwick Subarea is identified in the City's Comprehensive Plan as a countywide center. Pursuant to the Kitsap County Countywide Planning Policies (CPP), the City must adopt a subarea plan for this area prior to or as part of the 2024 Comprehensive Plan periodic update deadline for this countywide center to be recognized at the countywide level. The City seeks to develop a subarea plan that is consistent with Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC) centers guidance, the CPP, and local priorities. As a countywide center the Bethel Lund subarea needs to provide for a mix of housing and employment in a compact and walkable configuration served by transit with regular intervals. Developing a design framework for this area is critical to achieving this goal. This project will require outreach to the subarea stakeholders and design charette work. The final deliverable will be a subarea plan and any necessary development regulations to implement that plan including, but not limited to, overlay district regulations.
