mix;
(b) Sites requiring planting or replanting of tree canopy must plant no more than 30
percent of trees from the same species and no more than 60 percent of trees from
the same taxonomic family.
(c) Replacement trees shall be planted in locations appropriate to the species'
growth habit and horticultural requirements.
(d) When preparing the landscaping plan, applicants are encouraged to meet the
tree canopy requirement by conserving existing tree canopy including significant
trees and other vegetation located on the site and place new plantings in protected
areas (such as street trees, perimeter landscaping, open spaces and critical area
protection areas and required buffers) at healthy spacing densities before placing
trees within individual lots or yards; and
(e) Replacement trees shall be located in such a manner to minimize damage to
trees or structures on the project site and on properties adjoining the project site.

comply with the tree canopy requirements within the physical constraints of the site
by:
(i) Retaining as much of the tree canopy as possible on site consistent with
best management practices for maintaining the health of trees; or
(ii) Replanting as much of the tree canopy as possible on site consistent with
best management practices for maintaining the health of trees;
(b) The applicant proposes to plant additional understoryvegetation or ground cover
area, excluding lawn cover, invasive species or noxious weeds, to fulfill the
remaining canopy requirement not met by retention or replanting of tree canopy;
and
(c) When critical areas protection area buffers exist on site and those buffers are not
highly functioning, the applicant proposes to enhance the buffers by removing
invasive species and noxious weeds and/or planting vegetation indigenous to the
Pacific Northwest, spaced for maximum survivability.
(10) Retained significant trees, trees planted as replacements for significant trees, and
trees planted to meet requirements in subsection (3) of this section may not be removed

20.38.600 Height Overlay District (HOD).
A Height Overlay District (HOD) is hereby established with boundaries as shown on Figure
20.38.640 (1)(a) — Height Overlay District Map.
20.38.610 HOD intent.
The intent of the Height Overlay District (HOD) is to establish uniform regulations for
building height in designated areas to implement adopted subarea plans, support the
Centers strategy outlined in the City of Port Orchard Comprehensive Plan Land Use
Element, and promote orderly development. The HOD allows for increased building heights
in designated Centers to accommodate greater densities consistent with adopted subarea
plans while ensuring compatibility with surrounding land uses.
The provisions of the HOD are intended to balance development opportunities with the
protection of scenic views, access to light, and the preservation of property values. The
HOD establishes specific height measurement methods that account for variations in
topography where applicable. These regulations are intended to ensure that new
development contributes positively to the overall health, safety, and welfare of the
community.
The HOD applies to the following designated Centers: Downtown Port Orchard Countywide
Center, Bethel -Lund Countywide Center, Sedgwick-Bethel Countywide Center, and
Sedgwick-Sidney (Ruby Creek Neighborhood) Countywide Center.
20.38.620 HOD applicability.
No new building or modification of an existing building may be permitted in the HOD unless
it complies with the height limits established in this chapter.
20.38.630 HOD conflicts.
Where the requirements of this chapter conflict with another chapter, the more restrictive
requirement shall control.
20.38.640 DHOD height limits.
(1) HOD Height Zones Established. Within the HOD as shown on the zoning map, there are
three different HOD height zones with height limits established as follows:
(a) HOD 3: 48 feet — three stories.
(b) HOD 4: 58 feet —four stories.
(c) HOD 5: 68 feet — five stories.
(2) HOD Height Bonus.
(a) Within the Downtown Port Orchard Countywide Center, a 10 -foot (one story)
height bonus not to exceed 20,000 feet in area may be granted to exceed the applicable
maximum height provided in subsection (1)(a) of this section if the applicant agrees to
construct and operate (or lease to an operator) a grocery store in the same building for
which the bonus is sought, with the grocery store space measuring at least 10,000 square
feet in area. In addition to the 20,000 -square -foot bonus limit, the area of this additional 10
feet of building height shall not exceed 95 percent of the area of the floor immediately
below this bonus height (floor). Any height bonus shall require a development agreement
between the developer and the city that provides assurances to the city guaranteeing that
the ground floor commercial space will be developed and operated as a grocery store upon
project completion.
(b) Height bonuses may be granted in accordance with Chapter 20.41 POMC.
(3) HOD Height Zone Map. The height zones described in this section shall be applied as
reflected on the HOD Height Zone Map as shown in Figures 20.38.640 (1) (a -e).

20.38.650 HOD height measurement.
Building heights shall be measured one of two ways based on whether the parcel to be
developed abuts Bay Street or whether it does not abut Bay Street.
(1) Building heights for lots abutting Bay Street shall be measured from the average grade of
the property line that abuts Bay Street rather than from the grade plane as defined in
Chapter 20.12 POMC (see "building height" and "grade plane"). If this property line is below
the city's minimum flood elevation or forecasts for sea level rise, the property line may be
elevated to the required minimum ground floor flood elevation for the purpose of
measuring height.
(2) Building heights for lots not abutting Bay Street shall be measured in accordance with
the definition of building height as found in Chapter 20.12 POMC.
20.38.660 HOD variances.
Property owners may seek variances from the building height standards imposed under the
HOD pursuant to Chapter 20.28 POMC, Variances.
20.38.670 HOD map amendments.
Property owners seeking to modify the boundaries of the HOD or the HOD Height Zone Map
in POMC Figure 20.38.640 (1)may do so by a site -specific rezone pursuant to Chapter 20.42
POMC, Site -Specific Rezones.
