considered previously and tonight's meeting is to resume consideration of the submitted
and signed Notices of Intent. In order to create a logical boundary, without islands left in
Kitsap County, the recommended boundary for the proposed annexation is to include the
other five parcels. The two parcels represent 27.13% of the area total valuation. The parcels
are in the City's currently recognized Urban Growth Area. The parcels have a County
Comprehensive Plan designation of Urban Low-Density Residential with zoning of Urban
Low Residential. These two parcels are part of a strip of seven parcels, stretching east to
west, which are developed for single family residential use. They are located just to the
south of the Washburn-Grant-Crother Annexation area (annexed May 09, 2009), and to
the north of the McCormick East annexation, which is currently being processed by the
Boundary Review Board. RCW 35.13.125 requires the Council to determine whether it will
accept, reject, or geographically modify the proposed annexation, whether it will require the
simultaneous adoption of a comprehensive plan, and whether it will require the assumption
of all or of any portion of existing city indebtedness by the area to be annexed.

motion to accept the proposed annexation geographic boundary to include the
seven parcels depicted on the McCormick East 2 Annexation Map as listed in

annexed; and to require the assumption of existing city indebtedness by the
