Chapter 9. Capital Facilities
9.1. Introduction
This Capital Facilities Element of the 2016 Comprehensive Plan provides information about the City's
existing public facilities, and the need for future facilities to address the requirements of a growing
population. The Capital Facilities Element, in conjunction with the City's Capital Facilities Plan (CFP) and
Capital Improvements Program (CIP), provide guidance for the City to achieve its goals of providing the
appropriate public facilities and desirable levels of public services to its residents and businesses.
Capital Facilities Vision
Provide outstanding community
facilities that serve the needs of a
growing and changing city. Maintain
existing community facilities and
develop additional facilities to address
the city'sgrowth and evolving needs.
New facilities should address multiple
objectives, such as creating new open
space and enhancing neighborhood
Ensuring that public facilities are available when
growth occurs is critical to the quality of life for Port
Orchard's residents. The implementation of the
Capital Facilities Element and related plans will help
realize the community's vision for outstanding
community facilities, as well as the vision and goals of
the Land Use Element. This Element also functions in
coordination with the Comprehensive Plan's Utilities,
Parks and Transportation elements and functional
system plans for water, wastewater and stormwater.
These are discussed in more detail in Section 9.3.
character, even as they serve basic The state requires the City to demonstrate that all
functional requirements. capital facilities serving its population have been
considered and that planning is done in a coordinated
and comprehensive fashion. The Public Facilities and
Services Goal of the Growth Management Act (GMA) requires that the level of service ("LOS") of public
facilities and services necessary to support development shall be adequate to serve the development at
the time the development is available for occupancy and use, without decreasing current service levels
below locally established minimum standards ("the concurrency requirement"). Kitsap County's
Countywide Planning Policies also require the City to ensure that its growth plans are consistent with
the CIP and that adequate public facilities and services are or will be available to serve the City's
population allocation through the planning period. If limited funding or other circumstances would
prevent the city from providing adequate facilities and services, the Growth Management Act requires
the city to re-evaluate the Land Use Element and make sure that capital facilities plans and land use
plans are consistent.
The City of Port Orchard owns and manages a variety of capital facilities, including roads, parks, utility
systems, police facilities, and administrative buildings. In addition to the facilities owned and managed
by the City, there are publicly -owned capital facilities managed by other entities which meet some of Port
Orchard's capital facility needs. These include, but are not limited to, schools, library, sewage treatment,
and public transit. Privately owned utilities (electrical, natural gas, and telecommunications) conduct
their own planning processes and maintain their own system plans. The City influences private system

planning through its authority to regulate land uses and its obligation to develop and maintain a
Comprehensive Plan.
The City uses its capital facilities and functional plans, with guidance from the Comprehensive Plan, to
make planning and budgetary decisions about the need and timing for construction of new facilities,
improvements to existing facilities, the levels of service provided by those facilities, and how to fund and
maintain these needs. Planning decisions should also address the evolving and adaptive role of
technology in the provision of capital facilities.
The complete list of capital facility improvements planned in the next seven years is provided in the
City's Capital Improvements Program (CIP), which is described in Section 9.3. The CIP and the functional
plans provide a complete facility inventory, as well as needs, projected costs, and funding sources.

Chapter 9: Capital Facilities
The City's Capital Facilities Plan provides a detailed description and analysis of the City's current capital
facilities, as summarized below:
A
City Hall
The primary municipal building is the City Hall, which
was built in 1999. It contains all of the City's
departments and staff, except for the Public Works
crew.
The UP established the level of service for
administrative space (including police and courts) at ---
2,408 sq ft per 1,000 residents. The state's Office of
Financial Management estimated the City's 2015 population at 9,950. The City's 2036 target population
allocation is 20,558. City Hall also requires some maintenance and improvements, as identified in the
CFP. In 2016, the City contracted with Rice Fergus Miller, Inc to prepare a facilities space analysis for the
City Hall. This analysis, which has been included in Appendix B of the City's Comprehensive Plan (Plans
Adopted by Reference), found that the Port Orchard City Hall's net usable area was approximately 64%
of the area provided in the city halls for Gig Harbor and Poulsbo, which are smaller cities. The analysis
recommended that approximately 10,592 gross square feet be added to City Hall through 2025, based
on the City's projected population growth, in order to maintain and improve work space and customer
service. Parking should also be provided for an expansion.
The Police Department currently occupies approximately 5,500 sq ft on the ground floor of City Hall.
The Police Department has indicated that it requires approximately 10,000-15,000 additional square
feet of office space with 3,000-5,000 sq ft of storage to meet its needs for the next 20 years. The City
should review options for providing the additional space needed to maintain an appropriate level of
police services.
Public Works — Shop and South Shed
The Public Works shop houses this department's
foreman and crew and a majority of the City's
maintenance vehicles and equipment.
The shop has sufficient capacity to support staff
throughout the capital facilities planning period. There
is a current level of service for enclosed maintenance
facilities of 833 sq ft per 1,000 residents. However, there
is not enough covered parking for City vehicles and
equipment, and the City has identified the need for a
second four -bay carport to cover and protect City
vehicles and equipment from the elements.
The south shed is anticipated to continue being used as
a storage facility and staging area through the planning
period. No construction, remodeling or expansion need is anticipated.

Chapter 9: Capital Facilities
The Active Club is the only community recreational building owned by the City. It provides space for a
number of recreational, sports and civic organizations to conduct activities.
Police Shooting Range
The police shooting range provides a convenient and safe location for officers to train and practice with
firearms.
Library
The library building is owned by the City and houses the local branch of the Kitsap Public Library.

residents also have a number of non -City parks and private facilities that are available for public
recreational use.
The City's Parks Plan provides a comparison of current recreational facilities and services within the City
against the recommended levels of service used by the state's Interagency Council for Outdoor
Recreation and by Kitsap County. This comparison is
used to establish the LOS for recreational needs of
the City's existing and future population. City -owned,
non -City publicly owned, and private recreational
facilities are all considered by the City when
determining levels of service.
In general, the City has adequate park and
recreational facilities to serve the population during
the planning period, with existing deficits in bike
paths, boat launches and pedestrian trails, and
projected deficits in community and neighborhood
parks. Additional information on the City's parks and
more detailed planning strategies can be found in the
City's Parks Plan and in the Parks Element of this Comprehensive Plan.
9.2.3 Utilities and Transportation
The City owns, maintains and manages its water system and wastewater collection system. It is also
responsible for City roads and other aspects of the City's transportation system. More information on
these facilities is provided in the City's functional plans and other Elements of the Comprehensive Plan
(Utilities, Transportation).
9.3. Planning and Policy Connections
A complete list of capital facility improvements planned in the
next seven years is included in the city's Capital Improvements
Program (CIP), which is described in this section. The CIP and the
functional plans listed in the following table identify facility
inventories, needs, projected costs, and funding sources.
Capital improvement recommendations are drawn primarily
from functional plans specific to each capital facility or City
department. Utilities such as water, sewer, and stormwater have
specific requirements according to state and federal law. Each
City department forecasts needed improvements for at least a
twenty-year. Each plan contains an inventory of the system and
a forecast of system demand and capacity based on population
and regulatory mandates. The functional plans identify capital
investments required to meet future demand and to replace or

maintain existing facilities for continued service. The plans also define the customer service level for
each facility provide and system -specific operating policies.
The CIP uses many revenue sources to fund the capital improvement projects identified in the plan,
including sales tax, business and occupation tax, utility rates, state revenues, bonds, and grants. Impact
feesl and other specific revenues allowed under the Growth Management Act also offer potential
funding sources.

9.4. Future Needs
A key feature of the capital facilities planning process is asset management, which continually monitors
the condition of existing facilities and infrastructure, identifies the levels of maintenance needed, and
determines when facilities need to be replaced. The city's capital facilities policies ensure that the city
plans in advance for maintenance and infrastructure replacement to maintain levels of service. These

Chapter 9: Capital Facilities
policies also tie capital facilities planning to land use, making sure that assumptions about future growth
are consistent.
The City of Port Orchard owns, operates, and maintains over $3.5 billion of infrastructure to provide
drinking water, wastewater, and stormwater and surface water services to its residents and businesses.
Continued investment in this infrastructure is necessary for continued delivery of utility services that are
critical for human health and safety, economic development, as well as supporting a sustainable, healthy
environment. Capital facility investment helps to ensure that the City can continue to deliver the high
quality municipal utility services customers expect.
The City of Port Orchard has a rapidly growing population. To provide adequate capital facilities, the City
is working to address substandard infrastructure and comply with new regulations.
While there are unique challenges to specific capital facility services, several issues apply broadly to Port
Orchard:
Accommodating Increased Demand. Increased demand will require investment for building and
maintaining facilities for services like water, wastewater, stormwater, parks, fire, police, transportation,
and municipal buildings. Non -city providers, such as school districts, libraries and solid waste processors,
will also experience increased demand for services and will need to plan for new or improved facilities.
Aging Infrastructure. Some of Port Orchard's capital facilities are aging or inadequate for current service
needs, and will require repairs and replacement over the next twenty years. The costs of replacing utility
infrastructure and roads are substantial and take years for planning and implementation. Likewise,
facilities such as parks and municipal buildings require ongoing maintenance, improvements, or
replacement. City departments maintain plans and strategies for funding and building necessary
improvements, which are scheduled and assigned funding in the city's seven-year CIP.
Compliance with New Laws and Regulations. Changing state and federal mandates governing
capital facilities systems require the city to monitor and review its systems to ensure compliance. For
example, compliance with the city's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Municipal
Stormwater Permit (NPDES), a Federal Clean Water Act mandate that affects programs citywide, will
have significant long-term impacts on the way the city does business, on city expenses, and on private
development costs. In February 2010, stormwater regulations were significantly expanded under the
NPDES Phase II permit. These new regulations, along with associated stormwater requirements that
must be incorporated into City code by 2017, places significant additional requirements on the City's
planning and regulatory functions.
The City of Port Orchard benefits from its proximity to centers for recreation, open space, and sports
fields outside City Limits and/or held by other agencies or groups, such as the South Kitsap School District
and Kitsap County. Creating and strengthening regional partnerships will enable Port Orchard and its
partners to provide greater facilities and opportunities than would be possible alone. The City of Port
Orchard is already working with Kitsap County and other nearby jurisdiction to create and expand a
regional water trail including shoreline access with launch points, rest areas, parking facilities.
