Work Study Session Executive Summary
Issue Title: RCO Grant Applications
Meeting Date: April 19, 2022
Time Required: 20 Minutes
Attendees: Nicholas Bond, AICP
Issue: The City is working on multiple grant applications to the Recreation Conservation Office. Each
application requires the City Council to pass a resolution authorizing the application and acknowledging
the match requirements. The City is not obligate to accept the money if awarded, but the agency wants
to verify that legislative support exists for each application. The 3 grants the city is seeking are as
follows:
1. WWRP Recreation Grants. Old Clifton Road McCormick Woods Drive to McCormick Village Drive
Non-Motorized Pathway.
Total Project Cost: $1,000,000
Maximum Grant Award: $500,000
Match Requirement: 50%
Impact Fee Eligible: Parks and/or Transportation Impact Fees
2. Aquatic Lands Enhancement Account (ALEA) Grant. Develop Public Space around the
Community event center including possible shoreline restoration (scope still being developed).
Total Project Cost Estimate: $1,000,000-$2,500,000 depending on project scope.
Maximum Grant Award: $500,000
Match Requirement: 50%
Impact Fee Eligible: Park Impact Fees
3. Youth Athletic Facilities. Refurbish Givens Field Basketball Court as multi use sport court
(Basketball/Futsal). Refurbish Givens Tennis Courts as Tennis/Pickleball Courts.
Total Project Cost Estimate: $310,000
Maximum Grant Amount: $350,000
Match Requirement: 50%
Impact Fee Eligible: Park Impact Fees
For each project, we must match the amount of funding we receive. If we receive $500,000, we must
Action Requested at this Meeting: Discuss the proposed grant applications and the requirement for
Council approval by April 26, 2022
Page 24 of 124
Executive Summary 3
Page 2 of 2
match the $500,000. If the 3 applications are successful, the City would need to come up with at least
$1,155,000 in matching funds plus any cost overruns. If the City pursues a broad application scope of
work for project 2, the city will need up to an additional $1,500,000 in local or alternative funding. The
City has requested a federal appropriation for this project, but has not heard whether it will receive
federal funding. All three projects are eligible for impact fee fund expenditures. Impact fee revenues in
2023-2024 are expected to be sufficient to cover the matching requirements (provided that park impact
fees are adjusted as proposed).
Alternatives: Council could choose to instruct staff not to pursue any of these grants.
Recommendations: Discuss and provide staff with feedback.
Attachments: The RCO Resolution Template.

City of Port Orchard
Work Study Session Executive Summary
Issue Title: Parks Impact Fee Schedule
Meeting Date: April 19, 2022
Time Required: 15 Minutes
Attendees: Nicholas Bond, AICP
Issue: The City’s current park impact fee was initially adopted with the 2011 Parks Plan and has been set
at the same rate for the past decade (it has not been adjusted for inflation). Currently, the City assesses
park impact fees on new residential development at the following rates:
Single-family: $811
Multi-family: $584
Earlier this year, the City completed its Parks, Recreation, and Open Space (PROS) plan update. As part
of this update, the City’s consultant, Beckwith Consulting Group provided an updated Capital
Improvement Plan and Impact Fee Study. The final PROS Plan called for a 6-year investment of $20.6
million dollars in new parks and facilities. The final PROS Plan called for a 20-year investment of $68.9
million in new parks and facilities. These park investments are necessary to maintain existing levels of
service (ELOS) for City Parks. The PROS Plan identifies park impact fees as a major component of the
City’s funding strategy. The Beckwith Impact Fee study produced a suggested fee schedule that assumes
that 50% of the capital cost of the City’s Park system be funded with impact fees.
The proposed fee schedule is based on average occupancy (persons per household) as provided by the
Office of Financial Management (OFM) for the City of Port Orchard. The cost of maintaining ELOS per
resident is $3,349. This calculation is found in Appendix D of the PROS Plan (Page 19). This ELOS per
resident figure is multiplied by the OFM persons per household number for building types in Port
Orchard. Then this number is reduced by 50% because the City (if it followed the consultant
recommendation) would be making it a policy that 50% of the total cost of maintaining ELOS be paid by
new development. The City has the discretion to adjust this 50% number anywhere from 0% up to 99%,
but per the City’s consultant, the City can’t charge 100% of the cost of maintaining ELOS to new
development.
Choosing the appropriate percentage of future park improvements to be assessed against new
development is up to the City Council. The City Council should consider the park impact fee rate
schedules in surrounding communities, the housing costs in Port Orchard, the need for Park Facilities in
Port Orchard, and the ability to use other funding sources to pay for park improvements.
Action Requested at this Meeting: Discuss the proposed park impact fee rate schedule and provide
direction to city staff.
Page 29 of 124
Executive Session 4
Page 2 of 2
For comparison, City staff collected 2021 park impact fee rate information for surrounding communities.
At 30%, the City of Port Orchard park impact fee rate would slightly exceed the highest rate in the area.
Other surrounding communities charge the following rates:
Poulsbo: $1,174/residential unit
Bainbridge Island: No parks impact fee, but the Metro parks district taxes at $0.603692 per $1k of
assessed property value.
Bremerton: No parks impact fee
Kitsap County: $491.40/single-family unit, $239.40 multi-family unit
Gig Harbor: $1,500/residential unit
Pierce County: $2,754/residential unit
The final PROS Plan is available for review online here: https://www.cityofportorchard.us/parks-plan-
update/
Alternatives: The attached draft fee schedule provides park impact fee rates that vary depending on
whether the City Council charges 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, or 70% of the capital cost of maintaining ELOS for
Parks in Port Orchard. The City Council should also discuss indexing the new Park Impact fee to CPI
using the same methodology as Traffic Impact Fees. Based on current permit activity and the state of
the housing market, DCD project that 6-year parks revenue could reach $12.6 million dollars over the
next 6 years if the Parks Impact Fee rate is set using the 50% alternative.
Recommendations: The City Council should discuss the proposed fee schedule and provide direction for
adopting one of the alternative percentages of maintaining ELOS to be paid by new development. The
Council should also provide direction for an effective date for a new parks impact fee. A final Park
Impact Fee Ordinance will be brought forward for adoption in June 2022.

Port Orchard PROS Plan 1
Appendix D: Land and facility demand
Park, recreation, and open space land and facility demands can be
estimated using population ratios, participation models, level-of-
service (LOS) measurements, and/or questionnaire survey
methodologies.
Ratios
The demand for park, recreation, and open space land can be
estimated using a ratio of a required facility to a standard unit of
population, such as 3.1 acres of athletic fields and playgrounds per
1,000 residents. The ratio method is relatively simple to compute
and can be compared with national or local park, recreation, and
open space measurements.
However, the method cannot account for unique age, social or
interest characteristics that may affect the park, recreation, and
open space activity patterns within a specific community. Nor can
the method compensate for unique climatic or environmental
features that may cause seasonal or geographical variations in park,
recreation, and open space use patterns.
The ratio method is frequently used to estimate land requirements.
However, a number of factors may significantly influence the
amount of land a community may wish to set-aside for park,
recreation, and open space purposes. Such factors may include the
presence of sensitive environments, scenic viewpoints, historical or
cultural assets, trailheads, and other features that may increase
land set-asides along a non-motorized transportation or trail
corridor.
The National Recreation & Park Association (NRPA) compiles data on
the amount of land and facilities that have developed over time by
major parks, recreation, and open space departments across the
country. Depending on the agency arrangements within the
participating cities, the ratios may or may not include the lands and
facilities that are provided by all public sponsors including city,
school, county, state, federal agencies, and private operators within
each measuring jurisdiction.
Note - the NRPA began publishing a comprehensive list of ratios in
1985 that have subsequently been updated and qualified to account
for local methodologies in the years since. NRPA’s most recent data
has been published in the 2019 NRPA Agency Performance Review.
The 2019 NRPA Agency Performance Review was collected from
1,075 unique park and recreation agencies across the US based on
reports between 2016 and 2018 and is published with medians
along with data responses at the lower-quartile (lowest 25%) and
upper-quartile (highest 25%). The NRPA Park Metrics (formerly
PRORAGIS) report compiles the survey data for type, size,
geography, and other agency characteristics.
The benchmarks used here are based on the NRPA Park Metrics
results for agencies serving populations of 15,000-25,000 and the
median responses to the 2019 NRPA Agency Performance Review
when Park Metrics data is not available.
Note - the ratios are based on parks properties and facilities
owned by cities and not on a composite ratio that may include
other public, nonprofit, and private or school district facilities
available for public use.
Participation models
Park, recreation, and open space facility requirements can also be
determined using variations of participation models – refined,
statistical variations of a questionnaire or survey method of
determining recreational behavior.
Participation models are usually compiled using activity diaries,
where a person or household records their participation in specific
recreational activities over a measurable period of time. The diary
results are compiled to create a statistical profile that can be used
to project the park, recreation, and open space behavior of
comparable persons, households or populations.
Page 32 of 124
2 Port Orchard PROS Plan
Participation models are most accurate when the participation
measurements are determined for a population and area that is
local and similar enough to the population that is to be projected by
the model. The most accurate participation models are usually
controlled for climatic region and age, and periodically updated to
measure changes in recreational behavior in activities or areas over
time.
Properly done, participation models can be very accurate predictors
of an area's facility requirements in terms that are specific and
measurable. However, though accurate, participation models can be
somewhat abstract, and if not combined with other methods of
gathering public opinion, can fail to determine qualitative issues of
an area's demands in addition to a facility's quantitative
requirements.
For example, an area might provide the exact facility quantities that
are required to meet the resident population’s park, recreation, and
open space demands, such as a mile of walking trail. However, the
facility might not be provided with the proper destination, in a
quality or safe corridor, or other important, but less measurable
aspect that makes the facility quantity effective and the activity a
pleasurable experience. The walking trail, for example, might be
located in an area of uninteresting scenery and/or in an
inaccessible location.
This planning effort utilizes the results of the Washington State
Recreation & Conservation Office (RCO) surveys for 6 age groups
(male and female) for the northeast region of the state (east of the
Cascade Mountains) that were accomplished in 2001, 2006, and
2012.
The estimates were developed for each activity demand for the
peak season periods that would most impact facility capacities and
thereby the level of service to local residents. The estimated
demands were converted into facility units based on assumed high
capacity and turnover rates common to most urban areas of the
state. The projected facility unit requirements were then converted
into a simple facility unit per 1,000 residents ratio to allow
comparison with similar ratios developed by the NRPA and found to
be the existing facility level-of-service (ELOS) for each activity.
Note - participation models can account for facility capacity ratios
that may be expressed through management policies or local
population preferences concerning volume of use or the degree of
crowding that is satisfactory. However, the model cannot account
for all Proposed variations in crowding or volume of use that may
vary over the length of a trail, season, or by a different user
population at the same time. Nor can the model account for
communities that may be impacted by tourist or regional users
from outside the modeling area.
Existing and Proposed level-of-service (ELOS/PLOS)
Facility requirements may also be determined by expressing the
supply of existing park, recreation, and open space land and
facilities as a ratio to the resident existing population (as a unit
ratio per 1,000 persons).
The existing level-of-service (ELOS) condition or ratio can define an
existing standard for each type of park, recreation, and open space
provided within the existing inventory. ELOS ratios can be
calculated for specialized types of activities for which there are no
comparable national or state definitions.
Ultimately, department staff with public assistance through
telephone or mailed or internet questionnaires can develop
Proposed level-of-service (PLOS) ratios for a specific type of facility
by determining the quantity that is considered to be surplus or
deficient in quantity or condition within the existing inventory.
For example, the existing supply of beach trails in a jurisdiction of
10,000 persons may be 20 miles, or an existing level-of-service
(ELOS) standard of 2.00 miles per 1,000 persons or population. The
public may determine, however, that under present conditions the
existing trails are overcrowded and located in areas that are of little
interest for beach walking purposes.
Ideally, the public would like to add 10 more miles to the existing
inventory in order to reduce crowding and provide access to more
Page 33 of 124
Port Orchard PROS Plan 3
interesting sites. The proposal would increase the overall supply to
30 miles and the Proposed level-of-service (PLOS) standard to 3.00
miles per 1,000 persons.
Note – this plan compares all 3 methodologies. However, the plan
considers the ELOS/PLOS comparison approach to be the most
accurate method of resolving final level-of-service requirements
since it can account for impacts of:
§ Out-of-area tourist and regional users,
§ Combined public and private facility inventories,
§ Unique environmental or market area dynamics, and
§ Other variables not proposed to quantify in a participation
model or ratio.
Land requirements
Total park lands
The RCO does not have a benchmark for park, recreation, and open
space land. According to National Recreation & Park Association
(NRPA) 2019 NRPA Agency Performance Review agencies serving
populations of 15,000-25,000 provided a median of 12.6 acres per
1,000 persons in the population that gradually declined as the
population increased up to 250,000.
* Proposed identifies 2040 requirements including additional land or
facilities that are recommended to be added and the level-of-service per
1,000 persons that will result from the addition and the projected
population increase over the next 20-year planning period. The level-of-
service ratio will decline due to additional population increase (9,651
persons in the city by 2040) if no additional land or facilities are
recommended.
** Ratio is expressed per 1,000 residents within Port Orchard (year 2020 city
population of 15,117) under Port Orchard and for all public and private
facilities under “All total” and “Recommended additional” standard.
By comparison, Port Orchard owns 89.7 acres of parkland or a ratio
of 5.93 city park acres per every 1,000 residents and the city,
county, port, school district, state, and HOAs own 2,419.9 acres or
160.07 acres per 1,000 city residents. However, even though
significant, the present allocation is not equally distributed among
residential neighborhoods with the UGA.
Select acquisitions of additional parkland to be described in
following pages, may provide another 224.6 city park acres equal to
a ratio of 106.8 of all park acres per 1,000 city residents by the year
2040.
The resulting standard should be sufficient to provide equal park
distribution for local needs and to conserve important regional
attributes in the city for the reasons listed in the following
descriptions considering the amount of land provided in or near the
city by other public agencies.
Resource conservancies
Open space preservation or resource conservancies are designed to
protect and manage a natural and/or cultural feature, environment
or facility - such as a wetland or unique habitat, a natural landmark
or a unique cultural setting. By definition, resource conservancies
are defined by areas of natural quality for nature-oriented outdoor
recreation, such as viewing and studying nature, wildlife habitat,
and conservation.
Open space preservations or resource conservancies should be
located to encompass diverse or unique natural resources, such as
lakes, streams, marshes, flora, fauna, and topography. Recreational
use may be a secondary, non-intrusive part of the property - such
as an interpretative trail, viewpoint, exhibit signage, picnic area or
other feature.
In practice, there aren’t minimum or maximum benchmarks
concerning conservancies - a site should provide whatever is
necessary to protect the resource.
Page 34 of 124
4 Port Orchard PROS Plan
Port Orchard presently provides 76.5 acres of open space and
resource conservancies or a ratio of 5.06 acres per 1,000 residents
and the city, county, state, port, and HOAs provide 1,398.5 acres or
a ratio of 92.51 acres per 1,0000 city residents.
The ratio includes portions of the city’s Bethel South Property,
Bravo Terrace Open Space, Lundberg Park, McCormick Village Park,
Mitchell Park, Old Clifton Wetlands, Paul Powers Junior Park, Seattle
Avenue Property, and Van Zee Parks as well as Bill Bloomquist
Rotary Park, Howe Farm County Park, Kitsap County Park, Long Lake
County Park, South Kitsap Regional Park, Veterans Memorial Park,
Square Lake State Park, numerous HOA open spaces, and South
Kitsap School District’s Cedar Heights Forest.
While the present supply (existing level-of-service (ELOS) standard)
does not need to be increased through purchase, the city’s critical
areas ordinance should continue to protect these important
resource conservancies and if necessary, acquire development
rights if portions of these private landholdings are in jeopardy of
development or in order to provide public access for Proposed
wildlife habitat and trail corridors.
Sites that merit consideration for acquisition if necessary to
conserve riparian habitat, wetlands, ponds, streams, and wooded
hillsides include 165.1 acres along Blackjack and Ross Creeks, Ross
Point Hillsides, Stormwater Park, Johnson Creek daylighting, and
Etta Turner Park expansion that will increase the conservancy lands
to 1,563.6 acres of all agencies or a ratio 63.1 acres per 1,000 city
residents by 2040.
Resource activities
Resource activities are defined by areas of natural or ornamental
quality for outdoor recreation such as picnicking, boating, fishing,
swimming, camping, and local parks trail uses. The site may also
include play areas, such as playgrounds and open grassy play fields
as long as these areas support the primary outdoor recreational
features. The site should be contiguous to or encompassing natural
resources including resource conservancies.
In practice, there aren’t minimum or maximum benchmarks
concerning conservancies - a site should provide whatever is
necessary to protect the resource.
Port Orchard presently provides 15.6 acres of resource active parks
or a ratio of 1.03 parks per 1,000 residents and the county, state,
port, and HOAs provide 551.1 acres or 35.46 acres per 1,000 city
residents.
The ratio includes portions of the city’s Bethel South Property,
Lundberg Park, McCormick Village Park, Paul Powers Junior Park,
and Van Zee Parks as well as Bill Bloomquist Rotary Park Howe Farm
County Park, Long Lake County Park, South Kitsap Regional Park,
Veterans Memorial Park, Square Lake State Park, and HOA Deer Park.
However, 16.0 acres should be acquired to conserve resource access
at Ruby Creek Regional Park and Mitchell Point that will increase the
ratio of resource parks to 22.9 acres per 1,000 city residents by
2040.
Linear trails
Linear trails are built or natural corridors, such as abandoned or
surplus railroad lines, undeveloped road-rights-of-way, and active
utility rights-of-way or natural areas defined by drainage features,
topographical changes, wooded areas or vegetation patterns that
can link schools, libraries, or commercial areas with parks.
Generally, linear trails may be developed for multiple modes of
recreational travel such as hiking, biking or horseback riding. The
trail system may parallel established vehicular or other
transportation systems, but apart from and usually within a
separate right-of-way. Linear trail corridors may also include active
play areas or trailhead development located in other types of
parkland.
Page 35 of 124
Port Orchard PROS Plan 5
Trail systems should be anchored by public facilities, like a school
or park that may serve as a destination or trailhead and extend into
the surrounding residential areas using natural features or
established roads, sidewalks, or other safe travel corridors.
Ideally, a minimum trail system should be at least 3-5 miles long
and provide the ability to loop back to the point of origin. The trail
should be sufficiently wide enough to provide for the type of trail
user(s) that it is accommodating, preserve the features through
which the trail is traveling, and buffer adjacent land use activities.
In practice, there aren’t benchmarks concerning linear trails. An
agency should provide as many miles as Proposed considering the
trail opportunities a city’s geography provides.
Port Orchard presently provides 1.5 dedicated acres of linear trail
corridor or a ratio of 0.10 acres per 1,000 residents consisting of
the Bay Street Pedestrian Path and McCormick Woods Trail and an
extensive system of trails in resource parks that are not counted as
separate acreages. No other agencies provide dedicated acreage for
off-road multipurpose trails.
Additional multipurpose trails will be added within the existing
rights-of-way of Bay Street, Old Clifton Road, SW Berry Lake Road,
Glenwood Road, Sedgwick Road, Sidney Road, SR-16, and Bay Street
to Kitsap Regional Park.
Port Orchard has considerable and sufficient trail acreage resources
were these trail segments as well as the park trails integrated to the
resource parks.
Nonetheless, the city should acquire 11.0 acres to continue to
expand and connect the Bay Street Pedestrian Path and East
Gateway systems with all remaining parks and schools within the
city to achieve a city trail ratio of 0.50 acres per 1,000 city
residents by 2040.
Playgrounds and athletic fields
Athletic fields and playgrounds are designed for intense
recreational activities like field and court games, playground
apparatus areas, picnicking, wading pools, and the like. A suitable
athletic field and playground site should be capable of sustaining
intense recreational development. The site should be easily
accessible to the using population and ideally should be linked to
the surrounding area by walking and biking trails and paths.
Typically, athletic fields and playgrounds may be included within
or jointly developed in association with an elementary, middle or
high school facility.
The desired service area for an athletic field or playground complex
depends on the competitive quality to which the facility is
developed and the resident using population that the site is
intended to serve. Regionally oriented athletic sites may include 4
or more competitive, high quality soccer, baseball or softball fields
serving organized leagues drawn from surrounding communities or
areas - which may include the approximate service area for a high
school.
Local (community or neighborhood) oriented athletic fields and
playgrounds may consist primarily of a playground and a grassy
play area, possibly including 1 or more practice or non-regulation
athletic fields. Local athletic fields and playgrounds serve residents
of an immediately surrounding residential area from a quarter to
half-mile radius - the service area for an elementary school.
In practice, there aren’t minimum or maximum benchmarks
concerning athletic fields and playgrounds. An agency should
provide sufficient playgrounds within a 0.5-mile walking distance
of most residents and athletic fields to accommodate most league
activities of local, younger age residents.
Port Orchard presently provides 65.4 acres or a ratio of 4.33 acres
per 1,000 residents of playgrounds and athletic fields. All agencies
Page 36 of 124
6 Port Orchard PROS Plan
combined including the city, county, school district, and HOAs
provide 278.8 acres or 18.44 acres per 1,000 city residents.
Athletic fields are generally distributed and available within the city
at the city’s Paul Powers Junior Park and Van Zee Park as well as Bill
Bloomquist Rotary Park, South Kitsap Regional Park, Veterans
Memorial Park, Deer Park, and junior/middle and high schools when
scheduled with the school district.
However, the existing picnic, playground, sports court, and field
sites are not evenly distributed within a 5 or 10-minute walk of all
residential neighborhoods. Consequently, 12.0 acres equal to 3
additional neighborhood parks should be acquired and developed
to improve the availability and capacity of neighborhood parks
within the city and UGA to realize a city playground and athletic
field ratio of 11.74 acres per 1,000 city residents by 2040.
Recreation centers/pools
Recreation centers and pools are indoor and outdoor facilities
providing swimming pools, physical conditioning, gymnasiums,
arts and crafts, classrooms, meeting rooms, kitchen facilities, and
other spaces to support public recreation programs for school-age
children (but not students), teens, senior, and other resident
populations on a full-time basis. For the purposes of this PROS Plan,
recreation centers and pools are defined to include all city, county,
school-owned, non-profit, and private facilities that are available
for public use.
The desired service area for a recreation center/pool depends on
the extent of the recreational program services to be offered in the
facility and the building's potential size and site relationships.
Community oriented recreation centers may include a variety of
competitive swimming pools, gymnasiums, or courts along with/or
in place of a series of public classroom and meeting facilities, a
teen and/or senior center and/or a daycare facility providing indoor
building space.
And/or a community-oriented recreation center may be jointly sited
with an athletic park or playground, or in association with a library,
civic center or other public meeting facility. Community oriented
recreation centers may be jointly shared with school districts or a
part of other city or county building complexes that serve a city or
larger surrounding community area.
Local recreation centers may consist primarily of a single facility
use - like a classroom or gymnasium complex and/or that may be
sited as a lone building oriented to a single user group - like a teen
or senior center. Local recreation centers serve residents of an
immediately surrounding residential area from a quarter to half-
mile radius - which is the approximate service area for an
elementary school.
In practice, there aren’t minimum or maximum benchmarks
concerning recreation and community center acreages. An agency
should provide sufficient land considering the availability of other
public, nonprofit, and private facilities within the local area.
Port Orchard does not presently provide any indoor recreation
facilities though the county assets include Givens Community-
Senior Center or 4.2 acres or 0.27 acres per 1,000 city residents.
The existing level-of-service would likely exceed recreation center
objectives were the inventory to include indoor space provided by
South Kitsap School District and some nonprofit and private
facilities. However, school facilities are not available for use during
school hours to meet the needs of seniors, parents, or pre-school
children and the private clubs do not provide facilities for low-
income participants.
The city proposes to jointly develop 0.5 acres for a Community
Events Center with the Kitsap Public Facility District (KPFD) that will
include a new library, extensive meeting and classroom facilities, a
small physical conditioning room, and administrative space in the
downtown that will provide a ratio of 0.19 acres by 2040.
Page 37 of 124
Port Orchard PROS Plan 7
Special use facilities
Special use facilities are single-purpose recreational activities like
arboreta, display gardens, nature centers, golf courses, marinas,
zoos, conservatories, arenas, outdoor theaters, and gun and archery
ranges. Special use facilities may include areas that preserve,
maintain, and interpret buildings, sites, and other objects of
historical or cultural significance, like museums, historical
landmarks, and structures. Special use areas may also include
public plazas or squares or commons in or near commercial centers
or public buildings.
There aren’t benchmarks concerning the development of special use
facilities - demand being defined by opportunity more than a ratio.
Nor are there minimum or maximum facility or site sizes - size
being a function of the facility rather than a separately established
design standard.
Port Orchard does not provide special use facilities though the
county, port, school district, nonprofit, and for-profit agencies
provide 651.1 acres or 43.07 acres per 1,000 city residents
consisting of Cedar Heights Middle School greenhouses, Sidney
Museum, Log Cabin Museum, Veteran’s Living History Museum,
Village Greens Golf Course, McCormick Woods Golf Club, Gold
Mountain Golf Club, Trophy Lake Golf & Casting, Port Orchard
Marina, Port Orchard Yacht Club, Sinclair Inlet Marina, and Port
Orchard Railway Marina.
Port Orchard does not plan on providing any special use facilities
given the extent of special use facilities provided by other
sponsors.
Support facilities
Support facilities include administrative office space, indoor
meeting rooms, shop and equipment maintenance yards, plant
nurseries, and other buildings and sites necessary to service the
park system that are located outside of park properties.
There aren’t benchmarks concerning the development of support
use facilities - demand being defined by functional operating
requirements more than a ratio. Nor are there minimum or
maximum facility or site sizes - size being a function of the type of
facility space required and whether the facility space is shared with
other jurisdiction support functions rather than a separately
established design standard.
Port Orchard provides 5.6 acres or 0.37 acres per 1,000 residents of
supporting facilities including the Public Works Maintenance Yard
located on Vivian Court and South Shed Facility located on Sidney
Avenue – administrative office space is provided in Port Orchard
City Hall. The current acreage is sufficient to meet current and
projected needs.
Facility requirements
Number of parks
The RCO does not have a benchmark for the number of parks that
should be provided per 1,000 residents. According to National
Recreation & Park Association (NRPA) 2020 NRPA Agency
Performance Review agencies serving populations under 20,000
provided a 1 park per 1,300 residents or 0.77 parks per 1,000
persons.
Port Orchard currently provides 18 parks including resource
conservation sites, resource, linear trails, athletic fields and
playgrounds, recreation and community centers, special uses, and
Page 38 of 124
8 Port Orchard PROS Plan
maintenance facilities or a ratio of 1.19 parks per 1,000 city
residents. The city, county, port, state, and HOAs provide a total of
45 parks or 2.98 parks per 1,000 city residents
The plan proposes to add 3 more park sites that will provide
geographic distribution of local parks within a 5 and 10-minute
walking distance of all residential neighborhoods within the city
and UGA that will realize a ratio of 1.94 parks per 1,000 city
residents by 2040.
Community gardens
There is no behavioral data with which the participation model can
project community garden or pea patch requirements – meaning
specific areas set aside for the planting of ornamental and
vegetable plots.
According to National Recreation & Park Association (NRPA) 2020
Agency Performance Review agencies serving populations under
20,000 provided a community garden per 7,914 residents or 0.13
garden sites per 1,000 persons in the population.
Port Orchard does not currently provide community garden plots
though the Kitsap School District provides a school garden at Cedar
Heights Middle School or a ratio of 0.07 per 1,000 city residents.
The plan proposes to provide 1 city sponsored community garden
plots at a proposed neighborhood park site near
Bethell/Salmonberry Road or a ratio of 0.08 gardens per 1,000 city
residents by 2040.
Waterfront access
There is no behavioral data with which the participation model can
project waterfront access requirements – meaning shoreline access
for fishing and swimming purposes. The NRPA does not have a
benchmark for waterfront access.
Port Orchard provides waterfront access at 3 sites or 0.120 sites per
1,000 residents including DeKalb Pier, Etta Turner Park, and
Rockwell Park. The city, port, county, and state provide 9 sites on
Sinclair Inlet, Long Lake, and Square Lake or 0.60 sites per 1,000
city residents.
The city will add 7 additional sites on Sinclair Inlet to increase
access to Sinclair Inlet along the Bay Street Pedestrian Path and
proposed Mosquito Fleet Trail or a ratio of 0.65 waterfront access
sites per 1,000 city residents in 2040.
Kayaking, canoeing, and sailing
There are no participation model standards for kayak or canoe
hand-carry launch sites or facilities. The NRPA does not have a
benchmark for kayaking or hand-carry craft launching facilities.
Port Orchard provides non-motorized or hand-carry craft (kayak,
canoe, or sailboat) access sites at DeKalb Pier and Rockwell Park or
0.13 sites per 1,000 city residents. The city, port, state, and other
public agencies provide a total of 8 sites or 0.53 sites per 1,000 city
residents.
Additional designated hand-carry launch sites will be provided at
Ross Point and Bay Street/SR-16 or a total of 4 sites or a ratio of
0.48 sites per 1,000 city residents by 2040.
Boating
There are no participation model standards for boat launch ramps,
floating platforms or docks, and boat moorage slips. The NRPA does
not have a benchmark for boating facilities.
Page 39 of 124
Port Orchard PROS Plan 9
Port Orchard does not provide boat launch sites though the Port
provides the Port Orchard Boat Ramp partly on city street right-of-
way for a total of 1 site or 0.07 sites per 1,000 city residents.
This should be sufficient given the port’s boat ramp and the 4
adjacent marinas on Sinclair Inlet.
Picnic tables and shelters
Participation model projections indicate public agencies should be
providing a ratio of 1.77 picnic tables and benches of all types
(open and under shelters) per every 1,000 residents then gradually
decline to 1.67 as the population ages. The NRPA does not have a
benchmark for picnic facilities.
Port Orchard presently provides 13 picnic tables and 3 picnic
shelters or a ratio of 0.86 picnic tables and 0.20 picnic shelters per
1,000 city residents. The city, county, state, and HOAs provide 22
picnic tables and 3 picnic shelters or a ratio of 1.46 tables and 0.20
shelters per 1,000 city residents.
In general, Port Orchard parks do not provide a sufficient number
of tables and shelters within a 5 to 10-minute walking distance to
meet the requirements for local residents in a distributed pattern
across the city and UGA.
Consequently, another 14 picnic tables and 6 picnic shelters will be
provided at Givens Field, McCormick Village Park, Bill Bloomquist
Rotary Park, South Kitsap Regional Park, Veterans Memorial Park, as
well as 3 proposed neighborhood park sites to meet future
population growth, distribute facilities across the city, meet group
facility user needs, and resident interests.
Multipurpose bike and hike trails
Participation model projections indicate public agencies should be
providing a ratio of 0.15 miles of walking or hiking trails and 0.30
miles of bicycling trails within a separated multipurpose trail
corridor per every 1,000 city residents. The ratio will decline to
0.14 walking and 0.29 biking trails per 1,000 residents as the
population ages. The NRPA does not have a benchmark for trails per
1,000 residents.
Port Orchard presently provides 2.60 miles of off road trail or a
ratio of 0.17 miles per 1,000 residents consisting of the Bay Street
Pedestrian Path. All agencies combined provide 3.64 total miles or a
ratio of 0.24 miles per 1,000 residents including McCormick Woods
Trail.
An additional 3.89 miles of off-road trail or a ratio of 0.30 miles per
1,000 residents by 2040 will be added when the Bay Street
Pedestrian Path is extended and a multipurpose trail is connected
with Veterans Memorial and South Kitsap Regional Park.
Port Orchard does not provide on-road trails of sidewalks or paths.
All agencies combined provide 2.60 miles or a ratio of 0.17 miles
per 1,000 residents including McCormick Woods Road.
An additional 4.78 miles or a ratio of 0.30 miles per 1,000 residents
by 2040 will be added with on-road sidewalk and path
constructions on Old Clifton Road, Blueberry Lake Road, Glenwood
Road, Sedgwick Road, Sidney Road, and Port Orchard Boulevard.

10 Port Orchard PROS Plan
Park trails
There are no participation standards for park or day hiking trails.
The participation model projections indicate public agencies should
be providing a ratio of 0.15 miles of park walking or day-hiking
trails per every 1,000 residents declining to 0.14 miles as the
population ages. The NRPA does not have a benchmark for park
trails per 1,000 residents.
Port Orchard presently provides 0.48 miles or a ratio of 0.03 miles
of park trails per 1,000 residents in McCormick Village and Van Zee
Parks. All agencies combined provide 5.20 miles of park trails or a
ratio of 0.34 miles per 1,000 residents in Bill Bloomquiest Rotary,
Howe Farm County, South Kitsap Regional, Veterans Memorial,
Square Lake State, Deer Parks, and Stetson Heights.
An additional 3.08 miles or a ratio of 0.33 miles of park trails per
1,000 residents will be added at Ruby Creek Regional Park,
McCormick Village Park, and Stormwater Park.
Off-leash dog parks
There are no RCO participation model standards for off-leash dog
parks or trails. According to National Recreation & Park Association
(NRPA) 2019 NRPA Agency Performance Review all agencies
provided 0.0226 dog parks per 1,000 persons in the population.
Port Orchard provides a designated off-leash dog park in
McCormick Village Park or a ratio of 0.07 per 1,000 residents. All
agencies combined provide another designated off-leash dog trails
in Howe Farm County Park or 0.13 dog parks per 1,000 residents.
Off-leash dog parks are unique facilities reserved exclusively for
pet exercise, training, and social interaction. Generally, such
facilities cannot be shared with other park activities. Off-leash dog
trails may be shared with limited other trail activities if the volumes
are relatively low and the animals are well trained.
An additional dog park or off-leash area could be located in
Central/Clayton Park or a ration of 0.12 dog parks per 1,000 city
residents by 2040.
Separately, Port Orchard may consider designating some portions of
park trails for shared off-leash dog use where shared use will not
detract from other users or create hazards between dogs.
Playgrounds
The participation model projections indicate public agencies should
be providing a ratio of 0.60 playgrounds and tot lots of all types per
every 1,000 residents then gradually decline to 0.53 playgrounds as
the population ages.
According to National Recreation & Park Association (NRPA) 2019
NRPA Agency Performance Review agencies serving populations of
20,000-49,999 provided 0.56 playgrounds and tot lots per 1,000
persons.
Port Orchard presently provides 8 playgrounds or a ratio of 0.53
playgrounds per 1,000 residents at 8 city parks at Central/Clayton
Park, Givens Field/Active Club, McCormick Village, Paul Powers
Junior Park, Rockwell, Van Zee Parks, and Windfall Place Tot Lot. All
public and private agencies combined including elementary
schools, provide 32 covered and uncovered playgrounds or a ratio
of 2.12 playgrounds per 1,000 residents.
All public and private agency facilities combined provide a
significant inventory to provide for playground activities assuming
Page 41 of 124
Port Orchard PROS Plan 11
the school facilities are available for public use and located in safe
and secure areas for after school activities.
However, the present supply is not evenly distributed throughout
the city or UGA to provide equal access to all city neighborhood
areas particularly within southwest and southeast Port Orchard.
Additional playgrounds and play areas should be provided in 9
parks including McCormick Village Park, Bill Bloomquist, Veterans
Memorial Park, and 6 new neighborhood parks or a ratio of 1.66
playgrounds per 1,000 city residents or 2040.
Skateboard courts and pump tracks
There are no RCO participation model standards for skateboard
courts or skate dots or climbing walls - or similar roller-blade or in-
line skating activities. According to National Recreation & Park
Association (NRPA) 2019 NRPA Agency Performance Review all
agencies provided 0.02 skateparks per 1,000 persons.
Port Orchard does not currently provide a skateboard park or skate
facility. Kitsap County provides a skatecourt at South Kitsap
Regional Park and Peninsula Indoor BMX, a private vendor, provides
a 24,201 square foot indoor skate and BMX facility including
practice ramps, rails, and other equipment in the immediate area or
a ratio of 0.13.
The demand for these facilities will increase to meet the needs of
younger age residents for beginner, experienced, and some
competitive or advanced activities at locations distributed across
the city and adjacent to developed areas where skateboarders are
now using unauthorized public and private properties for this
activity.
At least 5 skateboard fixtures or ramps or “skate dots” should be
installed across the city in Givens Field, Van Zee Park, Bill
Bloomquist Rotary Park, and Veterans Memorial Park or a ratio of
0.28 skateboard options per 1,000 city residents by 2040.
In addition, a “Pump Track” or a circuit of rollers, banked turns, and
features designed to be ridden completely by riders "pumping"—
generating momentum by up and down body movements, instead of
pedaling or pushing should be developed at Ruby Creek Regional
Park or a ratio of 0.04 tracks per 1,000 city residents by 2040 to
meet the growing interests of this emerging youth activity.
Outdoor basketball/sports courts
Participation model projections indicate public agencies should be
providing a ratio of 0.10 basketball/sports courts of all types per
every 1,000 residents and then gradually decline to a ratio of 0.09
as the population ages.
According to National Recreation & Park Association (NRPA) 2019
NRPA Agency Performance Review agencies serving populations of
20,000-49,999 provided 0.10 basketball and 0.04 multiuse or sports
courts per 1,000 persons.
Port Orchard presently provides 2 outdoor uncovered courts or a
ratio of 0.13 courts in Central/Clayton and Paul Powers Junior Parks
per 1,000 residents. All public and private agencies combined
provide 7 uncovered courts or a ratio of 0.46 courts per 1,000
residents in Long Lake, Chanting Circle, Deer, and Mary McCormick
Memorial Parks and Mullenix Ridge and Sunnyslope Elementary
schools assuming the school facilities are available for public use
and located in safe and secure areas for after school activities.
However, these facilities are not evenly distributed across the city
and currently improved only for basketball. Consequently, the
existing courts should be reconfigured into sports courts to
accommodate basketball, pickleball, and volleyball and 6 more
Page 42 of 124
12 Port Orchard PROS Plan
sports courts should be added at Givens Field/Civic Club,
Stormwater Park, Bill Bloomquist Rotary Park, South Kitsap Regional
Park, Veterans Memorial Park, and 1 new neighborhood park for a
ratio of 0.52 courts per 1,000 city residents by 2040.
Tennis/pickleball courts – in/outdoor
Participation model projections indicate public agencies should be
providing a ratio of 0.24 tennis/pickleball courts per every 1,000
residents then gradually decline to 0.22 as the population ages.
According to National Recreation & Park Association (NRPA) 2019
NRPA Agency Performance Review agencies serving populations of
20,000-49,999 provided 0.23 outdoor tennis courts per 1,000
persons. However, neither standard effectively accounts for the
growing use and popularity of pickleball, particularly for older age
groups.
NRPA RCO PO existing All total All proposed
Courts 4 13 19
/1,000 0.23 0.22 0.26 0.86 0.77
Port Orchard presently provides 4 lighted outdoor tennis courts or
a ratio of 0.26 outdoor tennis courts per 1,000 residents at Givens
Field/Active Club and Van Zee Parks. All public and private agencies
combined provide 13 courts or a ratio of 0.86 outdoor tennis courts
per 1,000 residents including Mary McCormick Memorial Park and
South Kitsap High School.
Pickleball court overlays will be added to all existing tennis courts,
particularly at public parks, to reflect the growing interest in this
activity. An additional 6 more lighted tennis/pickleball courts or a
ratio of 0.77 courts per 1,000 residents should be added at the
future middle/high schools site in McCormick Woods and a new
community park at Bethell/Salomonberry Road to provide access.
Soccer/lacrosse fields
Participation model projections indicate public agencies should be
providing a ratio of 0.32 competition or regulation soccer/lacrosse
fields per every 1,000 residents then gradually decline to 0.29 as
the population ages. The projections do not estimate youth or
practice field requirements.
According to National Recreation & Park Association (NRPA) 2019
NRPA Agency Performance Review all agencies provided 0.39
rectangular competition fields for soccer and lacrosse and 0.08
multipurpose synthetic and overlay fields per 1,000 persons or 0.47
fields in total. NRPA standards do not estimate youth or practice
field requirements.
Port Orchard presently provides 2 practice or youth fields or a ratio
of 0.13 fields per 1,000 residents including an informal grass clinic
play area for young children at Central/Clayton Park, and standard
regulation field at Van Zee Park or 0.07 regulation fields per 1,000
city residents.
All agencies combined provide 10 youth or practice and 17
regulation fields or a ratio of 0.66 youth or practice and 1.12
regulations fields per 1,000 residents at Bill Bloomquist Rotary,
South Kitsap Regional, Veterans Memorial, and Deer Parks and East
Port Orchard, Hidden Creek Mullenix Ridge, Orchard Heights, Sidney
Glen, and Sunnyslope Elementary, Marcus Whitman Middle Schools,
and Explorer & Hope Academies.
A number of the existing park and school fields should be improved
with drainage, irrigation, and possibly lighting on some fields to
provide adequate and safe practice and competition events.
An additional 1 youth or practice and 5 adult fields should be
added at Van Zee Park, a new neighborhood park at
Blueberry/Ramsey/Geiger Road, and the future middle/high school
property in McCormick Woods,to meet local youth and practice
needs and regional competition games.
Page 43 of 124
Port Orchard PROS Plan 13
An existing field at Givens Field/Civic Club should be improved
with artificial turf to increase game capacity.
Baseball/softball fields
Participation model projections indicate public agencies should be
providing a ratio of 0.53 regulation (250+ feet) baseball and softball
fields of all per every 1,000 residents then gradually decline to 0.49
as the population ages. Participation models do not estimate T-Ball
or youth field requirements.
According to National Recreation & Park Association (NRPA) 2019
NRPA Agency Performance Review agencies serving populations of
20,000-49,999 provided 0.30 regulation baseball/softball youth and
0.08 adult fields per 1,000 persons.
Port Orchard presently provides 2 T-Ball, 1 youth, and 2 adult fields
or a ratio of 0.67 youth and 0.13 regulation fields per 1,000
residents at Central/Clayton Park, Givens Field/Active Club, and
Van Zee Park. All agencies combined provide 2 T-Ball, 8 youth, and
17 adult fields or a ratio of 0.53 youth and 1.12 regulation fields
per 1,000 residents including Bill Bloomquist Rotary, Long Lake
County, South Kitsap Regional, Veterans Memorial, and Deer Parks
and East Port Orchard, Hidden Creek, Mullenix Ridge, Orchard
Heights, Sidney Glen, and Sunnyslope Elementary and Marcus
Whitman, and Explorer & Hope Academies.
The supply includes a large number of un-improved park and
school fields that are capable of providing safe or functional
practice use let along regulation game fields for youth or adult play.
These fields should be improved with drainage, irrigation, grass or
turf surfaces, and possibly lighting on some fields to provide
adequate and safe practice and competition events.
An additional 2 youth (200-foot) field capacity could be developed
at Hidden Creek and Sunnyslope Elementary Schools, 5 additional
250+-foot fields could be developed at a neighborhood park at
Blueberry/Ramsey/Geiger Road, the future middle/high school site,
and East Port Orchard Elementary School, 10 additional 250+-foot
fields could be improved at Van Zee Park, East Port Orchard, Hidden
Creek, Mullenix Ridge, Orchard Heights Elementary Schools, Marcus
White Middle School, and the future middle/high school site, and 3
new 300-foot fields could be developed at the new
Blueberry/Ramsey/Geiger Road and future middle/high school site
to increase practice and game capacity for all age groups and field
distribution.
Swimming pool
Participation model projections indicate public agencies should be
providing a ratio of 541 square feet of swimming pool area or 0.04
of 13,454 square feet of an Olympic sized swimming pool per every
1,000 residents declining to 503 square feet as the population ages.
According to National Recreation & Park Association (NRPA) 2019
NRPA Agency Performance Review all agencies provided 0.03
outdoor swimming pools per 1,000 persons.
Port Orchard School District provides an indoor Olympic sized 50-
meter pool at South Kitsap High School property or a ratio of 0.07
pools per 1,000 residents.
The Port Orchard School District could consider developing a
leisure pool facility at the future school site in McCormick Woods to
expand and diversify swimming options.
Recreation centers
There are no comparable participation model data with which to
project demand for indoor recreation center facilities.

According to National Recreation & Park Association (NRPA) 2019
NRPA Agency Performance Review all agencies provided 0.03
recreation centers per 1,000 persons.
Port Orchard does not currently provide fitness facilities though
private agents provide 35,388 square feet or 2,341 square feet per
1,000 residents at Westcoast Fitness, Crossfit NWNW, and Olympic
Fitness Club. Port Orchard will provide 600 square feet of fitness
facility in the KPFD Community Events Center or a ratio of 1,453
square feet per 1,000 residents by 2040.
Port Orchard does not provide gymnasium facilities through other
public agencies provide 36,000 square feet of youth and 39,300
square feet of NCAA or 75,300 total square feet or 4,981 square feet
per 1,000 residents in Givens Community & Senior Center, East Port
Orchard, Hidden Creek, Mullenix, Orchard Heights, Sidney Glen, and
Sunnyslope Elementary and Cedar Heights, Marcus Whitman Middle,
and South Kitsap High Schools.
Additional gymnasium facilities will be developed at the future
middle/high school site including a possible 8,400 square foot
multipurpose and 14,100 square foot NCAA regulation gym or
22,500 total square feet or a ratio of 3,949 square feet per 1,000
residents by 2040.
Most of the gymnasium inventory is in public schools that are not
available for use by the public during daytime and some evening
hours. Existing facilities may not be sufficient to provide public
access to recreational facilities by retired persons, at-home
mothers, or workers during school hours.
Meeting rooms
There are no comparable participation model data or NRPA
standards with which to project demand for publicly accessible
meeting facilities.
Port Orchard provides 2,000 square feet or 132 square feet of
meeting room facilities per 1,000 residents at City Hall and Library.
All public and private agencies combined provide 22,100 square
feet or 1,462 square feet per 1,000 residents at the Givens
Community & Senior Center, Long Lake County Park, Horstman
Heights Pocket Park, Boys & Girls Club of South Puget Sound, Port
Orchard American Legion, Port Orchard Masonic, Center, and Port
Orchard Eagles.
Some of the meeting room inventory is in private facilities that may
not be available for public use without a membership or rental fee
and may not be available for public use during normal day or
evening hours.
An additional 6,000 square feet of meeting facilities including a
theater or event space, large meeting room, medium sized meeting
room, conference room, and restaurant banquet space will be
provided in the KPFD Community Event Center for a ratio of 1,135
square feet per 1,000 residents by 2040.
Community centers
There are no comparable RCO participation model data with which
to project demand for public indoor community center facilities.
According to National Recreation & Park Association (NRPA) 2019
NRPA Agency Performance Review all agencies provided 0.03
community centers per 1,000 persons or 1,612 square feet where an
average community center is 53,725 square feet.

Port Orchard provides 1,000 square feet of office and 12,000 square
feet of park maintenance yard facilities or a ratio of 860 square feet
per 1,000 residents at City Hall and the Maintenance Yard.
The facilities are sufficient to meet present needs for existing park
facilities but could require additional space at these sites or
satellite facilities in existing or future parks.
Future growth implications
The Washington State Office of Financial Management (OFM) and the
Port Orchard Community Development Department expect the
population of the city within the urban growth area will increase
from 15,117 persons in 2020 to an estimated 24,768 persons by the
year 2040 – or by 9,651 or 64% more persons.
This forecasted population increase will create significant
requirements for all types of parks, recreation, and open space
lands and facilities in the city especially within the downtown area
scheduled for higher density development.
The population forecasts do not include expected increases in
regional tourists and users who also frequent city parks,
recreational facilities, trails, and open spaces.

Total cost $ 32,326,076
Under the existing level-of-service (ELOS) for Port Orchard owned
park land and facilities in the city, the forecasted population
increase will create a city-wide need for an additional 61.4 acres of
land and 15,661 facility units (square feet, courts, fields, etc.) by
the year 2040.
The continuation of the city's existing level-of-service (ELOS) could
require an expenditure of $32,326,076 by the year 2040 simply to
remain current with present standards - not accounting for any
maintenance, operation or repair costs.
The approximate cost of sustaining the city's existing level-of-
service (ELOS) standard would be equal to about $3,349 per every
new person added to the city's population or about $8,139 for every
new housing unit. This assumes Port Orchard would continue to

maintain the same ratio of parklands and facilities for the future
population that the city has in the past.

Under the composite agencies Proposed level-of-service (PLOS) for
all public and privately-owned park land and facilities in the city,
the forecasted population increase will create a city-wide proposal
for an additional 224.6 acres of land and 29,219 facility units
(square feet, courts, fields, etc.) by the year 2040. This assumes
these agencies would supplement the existing inventory as
described within this chapter rather than simply extending the
same ratios into the future.
The realization of the composite agencies Proposed level-of-service
(PLOS) for all agencies could require a total of $146,787,421 by the
year 2040 - not accounting for any maintenance, operation or repair
costs. Based on the project proposals described in the plan
chapters, Port Orchard’s parks, recreation, and open space share
of the cost would be $68,874,553 or 47%.
Built encroachments
However, if these proposals are not realized soon the present trend
of increasing developments may:
§ Encroach upon - or preclude the preservation and public
accessibility of the more sensitive and appealing environmental
sites, particularly those proposed for cross city trail corridors and
additional sensitive land preservations along riparian corridors and
shorelines, and
§ Develop - or otherwise preclude the purchase and development
of suitable lands for playgrounds, picnic shelters, waterfront
access, and other neighborhood facilities.
Forcing city residents to:
§ Use crowded - picnic areas, playgrounds, community centers,
and hike and bike on crowded trails,
§ Commute to play - at overcrowded existing facilities in the city
and/or organized recreational programs may have to be reduced,
and
§ Commute to use - available facilities in other areas of the city,
particularly out of Port Orchard and/or to other jurisdictions parks
and/or programs may have to be curtailed to prevent severe
overcrowding conditions in the facilities that do provide such
services.
Such actions would be to the detriment of city residents who have
paid the costs of developing and operating these facilities.
Financial implications
These levels of facility investment may not be solely financed with
the resources available to Port Orchard if the city pursues an
independent delivery approach or uses traditional methods of
funding. Port Orchard will not be financially able to develop,
manage, and maintain a comprehensive, independent park,
recreation, and open space system using only traditional financing
methods in light of the needs projected.
These needs require a citywide financing approach by Port Orchard
and where appropriate in partnership with Port Orchard School
District, Port of Bremerton, and Kitsap County, as well as proposed
nonprofit or for-profit partners.
A citywide approach may use a combination of shared user fees,
excise taxes, joint grant applications, impact fees, and voter
approved property tax levies to maintain and improve facilities in
the face of continued city population increases.

City of Port Orchard
Work Study Session Executive Summary
Issue Title: Fee Resolution Update
Meeting Date: April 19, 2022
Time Required: 15 Minutes
Attendees: Nick Bond, AICP
Issue: The City periodically updates it’s adopted fee schedule to ensure that permittees are covering the
costs of permit center operations. It has been almost 2-years since the last update to the fee resolution.
Many changes have occurred since the last fee schedule update including high rates of inflation, changes
to the interlocal agreement with South Kitsap Fire and Rescue, the City’s use of consultants for building
plan review and inspection services, and changes to the ICC building valuation tables. DCD and Public
Works has worked with the City Attorney to review and update the City’s fee schedule.
Significant changes to the proposed fee resolution include:
• Adoption of the February 2022 ICC Building Valuation Table. Building permits are based on
valuation and this table reflects significantly increased construction costs and will lead to higher
building permit fees.
• Clarification concerning the timing of fee payments for electronic submittals.
• Adoption of hourly rates for various staff members involved in a project for situations where
fees are based on hourly work.
• An overhaul of the fire permit fee schedule now that these permits as processed by the City
under the ILA with SKFR.
• Updates to the City’s refund policies.
• Changes to how the City charges for 3rd party consultant review for building and fire code issues.
• Changes to how the City charges for 3rd party consultant review for other services such as
geotechnical, critical areas, etc.
Alternatives: Do not adopt the fee resolution update.
Recommendations: City staff recommends that the City Council discuss and advance the proposed
update to the fee resolution update for consideration at the April 26, 2022 City Council meeting.
Attachments: Draft Resolution including clean and redline versions of Exhibit A, Existing Fee Resolution
034-20, Comparison Table for SFR Building Valuations, Salary and Benefits Averages for hourly billing.
Action Requested at this Meeting: Discuss the draft fee resolution update and provide direction to
city staff for next steps.

“counter complete” until the fee due with the application has been received by the City.
b. For applications that are submitted online, the applicant can pay the fees electronically or may submit
another form of payment in person or via U.S. Mail. The determination of whether a permit application
is “counter complete” will be deferred for four business days following submittal of the online
application submittal. If payment for the fees is not received by the City by the fourth business day, then
the City will reject the application. In no case will the City take any steps to process an application until
such time as the fees due with the application are received in full.
c. The City may bill an applicant and require payment for accrued fees at any time in the permit review
process.
d. The final fees will be recalculated during review, and any additional amount due shall be collected prior
to the issuance of the permit, approval, denial, decision or recommendation.
e. At the time an application or permit is denied or canceled, the final fee shall be determined and
collected.
a.f. Any fee in excess of the final calculated fee shall be refunded pursuant to Refunds Table 25.
g. All outstanding fees shall be paid prior to scheduling or performing final inspections.
2.3. References to the director refer to the director of the Department of Community Development or his/her
designee.

tables below.
B. Building, Plumbing, and Mechanical Fee Policies
1. No temporary or final certificate of occupancy will be approved or issued for a project with any outstanding fees
on any permit associated with the project.
2. Some signs require a building permit in addition to a land use (sign) permit. In these instances, the permit fees
are additive. When an applicant is required to obtain a sign permit and a building permit, separate fees are
required for each permit.
3. Per 2015 IBC 109.3, The applicant for a permit shall provide an estimated construction value at the time of
application. The amount shall be rounded up to the next whole dollar. The amount shall be the contractor’s bid
price, rounded up to the next whole dollar. For work not done by a contractor, the construction value shall
include the price of materials, plus the fair market value of any donated, contributed or found materials,
multiplied by two (2). Construction value calculated on 100 square feet shall be rounded up to the next 100
square feet for any portion thereof.
4. Single family home builders who wish to reuse a plan set to construct more than one home using the same plan
set may do so by utilizing a “basic plan” review process. When an applicant wishes to establish a basic plan set
for reuse, the plans shall initially be reviewed upon payment of the city’s standard plan review fee. Once plan
review is complete and if the City finds that the plans conform to the requirements of the Building Code, the
plans shall be approved as a basic plan set and marked as such for reuse. For each use of the plan, the applicant
shall pay a reduced plan review fee as established in Table 3 in lieu of the full plan review fee. The use of an
approved basic plan set shall have no effect on the building permit fee (only the building permit plan review
fee). Plans may not be reused if the city’s building code has been updated unless the plans have been re‐
Page 57 of 124

reviewed (upon payment of the full plan review fee) and approved for conformance with the updated building
code.

city may request review by the city attorney of the alternative form if a legal determination is required to
ensure that the language in the proposed form adequately addresses the city’s interests. The cost of review
shall be paid by the applicant at the attorney’s hourly rate.
H. Appeal Fees.
Fees are collected when the appeal is filed. Any appeal statement must be filed on the deadline established in the
City's code relating to the specific appeal, together with a certified check in the amount of the appeal fee.
Appeals heard by the Hearing Examiner shall include a deposit for the Hearing Examiner’s fees charged to the City
on the appeal. The deposit shall be returned to the Appellant if the decision by the City is not sustained by the
Hearing Examiner. If the hearing examiner sustains the decision, the deposit will be applied to any fees charged by
the hearing examiner on the decision or appeal. If the appellant is the project applicant, the hearing examiner fees
will be billed to the appellant, and preliminary approval of the project will be conditioned subject to payment of
outstanding Hearing Examiner fees.
If the City Council is the decision‐maker on the appeal, only the appeal fee shall be charged. Page 69 of 124
14
If any appellant believes that the payment of the appeal fee creates a financial hardship, it shall submit a request for
an appeal waiver with the appeal statement on or before the deadline established in the City's code relating to the
specific appeal. This request for an appeal waiver shall describe the appellant's financial situation and why payment
of the appeal fee creates a financial hardship. As an example, the appellant may provide evidence that the appellant
resides in a low‐income household, which would include a single person, family or unrelated persons living together,
whose adjusted income is less than eighty percent of the median family income, adjusted for household size, for
Kitsap County.

Building Valuation Data – February 2022
Important Points
• The BVD is not intended to apply to alterations or repairs to existing buildings. Because the scope of alterations
or repairs to an existing building varies so greatly, the Square Foot Construction Costs table does not reflect
accurate values for that purpose. However, the Square Foot Construction Costs table can be used to determine
the cost of an addition that is basically a stand-alone building which happens to be attached to an existing
building. In the case of such additions, the only alterations to the existing building would involve the attachment
of the addition to the existing building and the openings between the addition and the existing building.
• The Square Foot Construction Cost does not include the price of the land on which the building is built. The
Square Foot Construction Cost takes into account everything from foundation work to the roof structure and
coverings but does not include the price of the land. The cost of the land does not affect the cost of related code
enforcement activities and is not included in the Square Foot Construction Cost.

Exhibit A to Resolution 0XX-22
FEE SCHEDULES FOR
DEPARTMENTS OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND PUBLIC WORKS
A. General
1. No permit shall be issued, application accepted, service provided, or appeal filed without payment of the
applicable fee set forth below.
2. Time of collection of fees.
a. Fees shall be collected at the times specified in the City Code or this Fee Resolution. If not specified, the
minimum fee shall be collected at the time of application submittal. No application will be deemed
“counter complete” until the fee due with the application has been received by the City.
b. For applications that are submitted online, the applicant can pay the fees electronically or may submit
another form of payment in person or via U.S. Mail. The determination of whether a permit application
is “counter complete” will be deferred for four business days following submittal of the online
application submittal. If payment for the fees is not received by the City by the fourth business day, then
the City will reject the application. In no case will the City take any steps to process an application until
such time as the fees due with the application are received in full.
c. The City may bill an applicant and require payment for accrued fees at any time in the permit review
process.
d. The final fees will be recalculated during review, and any additional amount due shall be collected prior
to the issuance of the permit, approval, denial, decision or recommendation.
e. At the time an application or permit is denied or canceled, the final fee shall be determined and
collected.
f. Any fee in excess of the final calculated fee shall be refunded pursuant to Refunds Table 25.
g. All outstanding fees shall be paid prior to scheduling or performing final inspections.
3. References to the director refer to the director of the Department of Community Development or his/her
designee.
4. Some projects require more than one permit. A project may require the payment of numerous fees from the
tables below.
B. Building, Plumbing, and Mechanical Fee Policies
1. No temporary or final certificate of occupancy will be approved or issued for a project with any outstanding fees
on any permit associated with the project.
2. Some signs require a building permit in addition to a land use (sign) permit. In these instances, the permit fees
are additive. When an applicant is required to obtain a sign permit and a building permit, separate fees are
required for each permit.
3. The applicant for a permit shall provide an estimated construction value at the time of application. The amount
shall be the contractor’s bid price, rounded up to the next whole dollar. For work not done by a contractor, the
construction value shall include the price of materials, plus the fair market value of any donated, contributed or
found materials, multiplied by two (2). Construction value calculated on 100 square feet shall be rounded up to
the next 100 square feet for any portion thereof.
4. Single family home builders who wish to reuse a plan set to construct more than one home using the same plan
set may do so by utilizing a “basic plan” review process. When an applicant wishes to establish a basic plan set
for reuse, the plans shall initially be reviewed upon payment of the city’s standard plan review fee. Once plan
review is complete and if the City finds that the plans conform to the requirements of the Building Code, the
plans shall be approved as a basic plan set and marked as such for reuse. For each use of the plan, the applicant
shall pay a reduced plan review fee as established in Table 3 in lieu of the full plan review fee. The use of an
approved basic plan set shall have no effect on the building permit fee (only the building permit plan review
fee). Plans may not be reused if the city’s building code has been updated unless the plans have been re-
reviewed (upon payment of the full plan review fee) and approved for conformance with the updated building
code. Page 75 of 124

Building Valuation Data – February 2022
Important Points
• The BVD is not intended to apply to alterations or repairs to existing buildings. Because the scope of alterations
or repairs to an existing building varies so greatly, the Square Foot Construction Costs table does not reflect
accurate values for that purpose. However, the Square Foot Construction Costs table can be used to determine
the cost of an addition that is basically a stand-alone building which happens to be attached to an existing
building. In the case of such additions, the only alterations to the existing building would involve the attachment
of the addition to the existing building and the openings between the addition and the existing building.
• The Square Foot Construction Cost does not include the price of the land on which the building is built. The
Square Foot Construction Cost takes into account everything from foundation work to the roof structure and
coverings but does not include the price of the land. The cost of the land does not affect the cost of related code
enforcement activities and is not included in the Square Foot Construction Cost.

Exhibit A to Resolution 034-20
FEE SCHEDULES FOR
DEPARTMENTS OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND PUBLIC WORKS
A. General
1. No permit shall be issued, application accepted, service provided, or appeal filed without
payment of the applicable fee set forth below.
2. References to the director refer to the director of the Department of Community Development
or his/her designee.
3. When an application includes the submittal of special reports and/or plans such as habitat
management plans, geotechnical reports, or traffic impact analyses requiring review beyond the
capabilities of city staff, the applicant shall be required to pay the actual cost of 3rd party review
by qualified consultants under contract with the city. Upon determining that 3rd party review of
special reports or plans is required, the city will obtain a fee estimate from its consultant and
provide that estimate to the applicant and request payment to the city.
4. Some projects require more than one permit. A project may require the payment of numerous
fees from the tables below.
5. No inspections, including final inspections, will be scheduled or performed until all outstanding
fees are paid.
6. Refunds: Refunds may be requested using the Permit Center’s refund request form.
a. Building Permit fees:
Refunds shall be issued at an amount equal to the permit fee less actual time and
materials spent on the project; provided no refund shall exceed 80% of the initial
permit fee for a permit that was issued by the City. If the permit fee was paid and a
refund was requested prior to permit issuance, 100% of the permit fee may be
refunded.
b. Plan Review Fees:
If an application is withdrawn, cancelled or returned prior to issuing a permit, a
refund shall be issued at an amount equal to the plan review fee less actual time
and materials spent on the project, provided no refund shall exceed 80% of the plan
review fee. Plan review fees are non-refundable once the plan review has been

c. Land Use Permit/Application fees:
Refunds for Land Use permits may be authorized by the director. Refunds shall be
issued at an amount equal to the permit fee less actual time and materials spent on
the project; provided no refund shall exceed 80% of the initial permit fee.
B. Building, Plumbing, and Mechanical Fee Policies
1. No temporary or final certificate of occupancy will be approved or issued for a project with any
outstanding fees on any permit associated with the project.
2. Some signs require a building permit in addition to a land use (sign) permit. In these instances,
the permit fees are additive. When an applicant is required to obtain a sign permit and a
building permit, separate fees are required for each permit.
3. Per 2015 IBC 109.3, the applicant for a permit shall provide an estimated construction value at
the time of application. The amount shall be rounded up to the next whole dollar. The amount
shall be the contractor’s bid price. For work not done by a contractor, the construction value
shall include the price of materials, plus the fair market value of any donated, contributed or
found materials, multiplied by two (2). Construction value calculated on 100 square feet shall be
rounded up to the next 100 square feet for any portion thereof.
Page 94 of 124

4. Single family home builders who wish to reuse a plan set to construct more than one home
using the same plan set may do so by utilizing a “basic plan” review process. When an applicant
wishes to establish a basic plan set for reuse, the plans shall initially be reviewed upon payment
of the city’s standard plan review fee. Once plan review is complete and if the City finds that the
plans conform to the requirements of the Building Code, the plans shall be approved as a basic
plan set and marked as such for reuse. For each use of the plan, the applicant shall pay a
reduced plan review fee as established in Table 3 in lieu of the full plan review fee. The use of
an approved basic plan set shall have no effect on the building permit fee (only the building
permit plan review fee). Plans may not be reused if the city’s building code has been updated
unless the plans have been re-reviewed (upon payment of the full plan review fee) and
approved for conformance with the updated building code.

Permit fees and Plan Review fees shall be determined by using the calculations found in Table 1.
Valuations shall be determined using the IBC Building Valuation Data Table (BVD) (currently the

F. Appeal Fees.
Fees are collected when the appeal is filed. Any appeal statement must be filed on the deadline
established in the City's code relating to the specific appeal, together with a certified check in the
amount of the appeal fee.
Appeals heard by the Hearing Examiner shall include a deposit for the Hearing Examiner’s fees charged
to the City on the appeal. The deposit shall be returned to the Appellant if the decision by the City is not
sustained by the Hearing Examiner. If the hearing examiner sustains the decision, the deposit will be
applied to any fees charged by the hearing examiner on the decision or appeal. If the appellant is the
project applicant, the hearing examiner fees will be billed to the appellant, and preliminary approval of
the project will be conditioned subject to payment of outstanding Hearing Examiner fees.
If the City Council is the decision-maker on the appeal, only the appeal fee shall be charged.
If any appellant believes that the payment of the appeal fee creates a financial hardship, it shall submit a
request for an appeal waiver with the appeal statement on or before the deadline established in the
City's code relating to the specific appeal. This request for an appeal waiver shall describe the
appellant's financial situation and why payment of the appeal fee creates a financial hardship. As an
example, the appellant may provide evidence that the appellant resides in a low-income household,
which would include a single person, family or unrelated persons living together, whose adjusted
income is less than eighty percent of the median family income, adjusted for household size, for Kitsap
County.

Building Valuation Data – February 2020
Important Points
• The BVD is not intended to apply to alterations or repairs to existing buildings. Because the scope of alterations
or repairs to an existing building varies so greatly, the Square Foot Construction Costs table does not reflect
accurate values for that purpose. However, the Square Foot Construction Costs table can be used to determine
the cost of an addition that is basically a stand-alone building which happens to be attached to an existing
building. In the case of such additions, the only alterations to the existing building would involve the attachment
of the addition to the existing building and the openings between the addition and the existing building.
• The Square Foot Construction Cost does not include the price of the land on which the building is built. The
Square Foot Construction Cost takes into account everything from foundation work to the roof structure and
coverings but does not include the price of the land. The cost of the land does not affect the cost of related code
enforcement activities and is not included in the Square Foot Construction Cost.
