Community Development Director Bond said in 2009, the City annexed an area of west Port Orchard
that included the McCormick Woods subdivisions. Within this area north of Old Clifton Road, these
subdivisions are served by the City of Bremerton water utilities. After annexation, a franchise
agreement was not pursued with the City of Bremerton. With a lot of growth and change, it became
apparent that a franchise agreement is needed.
Staff from the City of Port Orchard and City of Bremerton have negotiated a franchise agreement
that outlines the terms of Bremerton's use of Port Orchard's right of way. State law requires a
franchise agreement needs to be approved by ordinance and requires two readings. This is the first
reading.
