Our vision for Port Orchard is a community which:
Continually strives to become a regional leader in organized, well planned growth to
improve the quality and cost effectiveness of municipal services and which results
in a larger more efficient City.
omz=
The Capital Facilities Element is required in Port Orchards Comprehensive Plan. Capital
facilities generally have very long useful lives, significant costs, and are not mobile. One
of the principal criteria for identifying needed capital improvements is standards for levels
of service (LOS). The Capital Facilities Plan contains LOS standards for each public
facility, and requires that new development be served by adequate facilities (i.e., the
11concurrency" requirement of the Growth Management Act). The Capital Facilities Plan
also contains goals and policies that guide and implement the provision of adequate
public facilities.
The purpose of the Capital Facilities Plan is to use sound fiscal policies to provide
facilities consistent with the Land Use Element and concurrent with, or prior to the
impacts of development in order to achieve and maintain adopted standards for levels of
service, and to exceed the adopted standards, when possible.
The Growth Management Act requires that the Capital Facilities Plan consist of: an
inventory of existing capital facilities owned by public entities showing their locations and
capacities; a forecast of the future needs for such capital facilities; the proposed
locations and capacities of expanded or projected capital facilities; at least a six -year plan
that will finance such capital facilities; a requirement to reassess the Land Use Element if
probable funding falls short of meeting existing needs and to ensure that the Land Use
Element, within the Capital Facilities Plan Element are coordinated and consistent.
The City of Port Orchard staff has developed individual parks, sewer, water, fire, and
capital facilities plans which are available at City Hall. The Growth Management Act
also requires coordination and consistency with the plans of other service providers such
as schools and libraries. Adequate public facilities must be provided for these services as
well. Six -year plans are provided as required. Summaries of the Fire, Sewer, and Water
Plans are provided in this element. The Parks Plan can be found in the Parks and Open
Space Element. The Capital Facilities Plan analyzes and forecasts needs to the year
2015 and shows the location and capacities of existing City facilities. Levels of service
June 1995
I-1
have been established for each type of facility based upon the level of service provided in
1994. The level of service is identified based upon the basic unit of the facility or activity
per 1,000 population so that facilities providing different types of services can be
compared.
The Growth Management Act is intended to limit urban sprawl and reduce the adverse
impacts of rapid development. One of the most common adverse impacts of development
is the inability of infrastructure and government resources to expand as rapidly as do the
surrounding developments. With rampant development, the community discovers that the
municipal base and infrastructure is not available to properly serve larger neighborhoods.
As a result of this failing, various level of services unavoidably fall and the quality of life
drops. The Growth Management Act calls for concurrent planning and actions to keep
pace with future development.
The purpose of the Capital Facilities Plan is to address the needs of the infrastructure as
the population increases. Unlike large communities, this particular plan will not address
transportation needs such as airports, marine services or rail. These transportation
facilities are in the vicinity of the City. However, the plans of Kitsap County, Kitsap Transit
and other agencies can best address these regional issues. Also excluded from this
particular report will be the specific plans for water, wastewater, parks, roads and
stormwater. Each of these four categories are regulated by different State agencies and
each shall have individual comprehensive plans. These individual plans will be written to
support the goals and objectives of the City of Port Orchard Comprehensive Land Use
Plan. These documents will be required to meet the standards of each specific State
agency.
The City is served by the Kitsap Regional Library District which maintains library services
within its own buildings as well as buildings owned by the County and cities. The Library
District has a professional staff and regularly plans for these specialized needs of the
community. By contract, the City of Port Orchard is obligated to provide a building to the
Library District. The clientele of the Port Orchard Library is comprised of any patron of
the Library District, of which citizens of Port Orchard are but a few. The City will meet its
growth management responsibilities by referring to the Library's plans and using those
plans and using those plans for guidance.

The Capital Facilities Plan will address the resources that are directly under the control of
the City of Port Orchard. By properly managing municipal facility resources, the City will
benefit in three ways: 1) better utilization of limited space; 2) timely preparation of
applications for grants and loans to achieve the Plan's objectives; and 3) effective use of
the real estate excise tax.
The City owns and operates certain buildings and structures to deliver municipal
services. Proper management requires that the City government be able to effectively
manage these buildings. Management would include more than immediate maintenance.
Use of finite floor space is a challenge as the work force grows to meet the growing
needs of the Community. As this work force grows and the buildings age, City
government needs to be able to project expansion and replacement dates. One purpose
of the Capital Facilities Plan is to project the use and replacement of municipal buildings.
The repair and replacement of municipal facilities or its structures is very expensive and
requires careful planning. By projecting the needs of the City, the associated costs are
better able to be identified and programmed. An example of financial programming is the
recent construction of the new fire station. After considerable study and discussions, the
City Council decided to proceed with the project using phased construction and careful
management of Current Expense funds. As such, this $1,000,000 project was able to be
constructed without a bond issue. Future construction projects should anticipate using a
combination of bonds, loans and grants.
The Growth Management Act provided local governments with a revenue tool. Cities,
June 1995
1-3
such as Port Orchard, already had the authority to implement a real estate excise tax
based on 1/4% of any real estate transaction within the corporate limits. The Growth
Management Act allowed the cities to implement a second 1/4% real estate excise tax.
Once the community had a Capital Facilities Plan adopted, it could use this tax revenue to
implement the Plan's programs.
The study period for this Capital Facilities Plan uses 1994 as the base year. The Plan
uses years 2000, 2005 and 2015 as milestones.
TYPES OF CAPITAL FACILITIES
The City's accounting system is the State of Washington Budgeting, Accounting and
Reporting System, or BARS. Pursuant to BARS, there are the following types of capital
facilities which pertain to the City:
Community and Recreation Centers: A building or area dedicated to meeting and
activity rooms for clubs and organizations or for recreational programs and
activities.
Shops and Garages —,and -Engine -Houses: Building and yards used to perform repairs,
to store materials for maintenance, or to store and protect vehicles and heavy
equipment.
General Administration Buildings: Structures used to house governmental operations
and services.
Infrastructure: Structures that are used to provide basic general services such as
electricity, water, sewer, storm water facilities and franchise utility service to the general
public. The Marquee on Bay Street is a City -owned structure that provides connectivity t*
electric service and lighting of the downtown area.

State--of��. requires that local governments develop Capital Facilities Plans.
In developing those plans, a variable has to be established with which to measure the
level of services. With public safety, response time can serve this purpose. Delays at
street intersections can be used to measure transportation levels of service. For public
buildings and facilities, there is not yet a recognized measurement tool; however,
maintenance and repair of all it buildings, structures, and facilities need to be
added as an ongoing element of the Capital Facilities Plan. The City of Port Orchard
will use population as an indicator for the size of facilities. From the Land Use Element,

The primary municipal building in the City of Port Orchard is the City Hall. The current
City Hall was constructed in 1999, when the population was about 6,200. Since that time,
the City has grown and the number of City public employees has increased. The City
recognizes that the available space in City Hall will need to be redesigned to meet the
needs of a growing staff.

The library building is a City owned facility that is also maintained by the City. It is leased
to and currently houses the Port Orchard Branch of the Kitsap Regional Library. As an
older building in the City, it needs ongoing maintenance and repairs to make it safe for
public use such as repairs and/or replacing the roof, interior remodeling, and
improvements to existing infrastructure.
The Port Orchard Police Department has an outdoor pistol range which allows the officers
to maintain proficiency with various weapons. The pistol range is used for handguns,
shotguns and rifles and is a unique requirement associated only with law enforcement.
The existing range was constructed on a volunteer basis several years ago and meets the
immediate needs of the Police Department.
The pistol range has an impact area which will be encroached upon by urban
development both outside and inside the City. In previous years, fencing and signs were
posted. However, as more people move into this neighborhood, the Police will have
greater difficulty excluding people from the impact area. The vulnerability of the impact
area threatens the viability of the pistol range.
The City Police will always have to train and maintain proficiency with various weapons.
In order to meet this need, the City will have to provide the facility for training. This can
be accomplished by one of several ways:
1. Schedule time at a private range.
2. Schedule time at a public range.
3. Construct an indoor range.
Prior to making any final decisions, the City will need to further study this question to find
the best alternative.
Future needs may include acquisition of land and/or a facility to house an indoor pistol
range.

The Active Club is the only community recreational building which the City owns. The
building was purchased by a local service group, the Port Orchard Active Club, in the
1960's. They then relocated the building and donated it to the City. Since that time, the
building has served numerous organizations such as the senior citizens, youth groups,
quilting bees, square dancers and Alcoholics Anonymous. In 1992, Kitsap County
purchased and renovated Givens Community School. This former elementary school
was converted to a multi -purpose building which houses both government offices and
areas for community activities, The Givens Community Center assumed the role as a
primary community center for South Kitsap and eased the demands on the Active Club.
The Active Club building consists of two stories for a total floor space of 7,500 square
feet. The lower story is used for storage and a meeting area for young people's baseball.
Most activity takes place on the street level story which consists of three meeting rooms,
a kitchen and restrooms.
The City's Comprehensive Plan calls for multi -use facilities, more efficient provision of
government services, and elimination of unnecessary duplication of services. The South
Kitsap community has three agencies which provide community activities: Kitsap County,
Port Orchard and the South Kitsap Parks and Recreation District. Close coordination
between these agencies will provide the best use of existing facilities and will help avoid
redundancy. The primary community center is Givens Community Center. The Active
Club provides a support role by making available smaller and less formal rooms for multi-
use activities. As such, the Capital Facilities Plan establishes a standard for City
community centers of 1,000 square feet of floor space per 1,000 people.
Pursuant to the above level of service, the Active Club will meet the needs of the City for
the next six years. In the year 2015, the population is estimated to be 7,954 people.
According to the level of service, the City would need 7,954 square feet of community
center floor space. The City's goals and objectives call for cooperating with other
jurisdictions and avoiding duplication of services. When the Active Club no longer meets
the needs of the City, several alternatives are available to Port Orchard:
1 Participate in the use of Givens Community Center to allow more non -government
activities in the building.

In order to meet the traditional Public Works responsibilities, the Department uses a shop
and various storage buildings. The level of service for shops and garages must account
for numerous variables, such as number of trucks, specialized equipment and miles of
road. For consistency with other planning fields, the level of service for the Capital
Facilities Plan will be based upon population. The standard is 1,000 square feet of
heated storage for every 1,000 people in the City.

The facility needs of the utility crews and the utility equipment will be dependent upon the
expansion of those utilities. Presently, there is sufficient area for the storage of
equipment and working areas for the personnel. As the City expands and population
increases, the needs of the utility crews may change. At this time, the City of Port
Orchard does not have sufficient information to project the building needs of the crews
beyond six years.
As an older structure, the marquee will require ongoing maintenance and repairs to
maintain the safety of citizens using the sidewalks and structures and to ensure
the integrity of the existing buildings and their connections to the marquee.

The City Hall wffl—contains the administration, judicial and utility functions of local
government. Each of these governmental functions has different funding sources and
each source can contribute to the operation, repair and maintenance
of the new building. The following funding sources are available to the City for
eonstmetk),n-these functions:
1. GENERAL OBLIGATION BONDS: The City Council can elect to put a bond issue
before the citizens. This bond issue would provide for the selling of bonds to the
public. The bonds would be redeemed by the annual assessment of each
property tax payer and paid as part of the property tax. The--m-afgin--of
2. COUNCILMANIC BONDS: The City Council has limited authority to issue bonds
without a vote of the people. The maximum debt level allowed is based upon the
total property value of the community and the existing level of debt incurred by
local government. The actual limit can be determined by the City Treasurer, as
required by the City Council. The bonds would be redeemed by regular payments
from the annual budget of the City and the people are not individually assessed.
3. UTILITY CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FEE REVENUE: An equitable portion of the
project cost can be funded from the Water/Sewer Cumulative Reserve Fund. This
fund is comprised of the water and sewer connection fees which allow the utility to
adjust for demands caused by the growth of the system. The management of the
water/sewer utility occurs in City Hall and this activity would justify the use a portion
of these funds for a new City Hall.
4. REAL ESTATE EXCISE TAX REVENUE: When the Capital Facilities Plan is adopted,
the City can use the real estate -excise tax to fund recommended projects of that
Plan. The revenue for Port Orchard would be based on 1/2% of the real estate
transactions within City limits.
$70-,3. The revenue will directly reflect the levels of real estate activity and
fluctuations.
5. PUBLIC WORKS TRUST FUND: The State of Washington offers low interest loans to
construct infrastructure. City halls are listed as an approved project for funding.
The loan's interest is based on the matching funds of the community and ranges
from 0% to 3% for a 20 year period.
June 1995
1-15
The City cannot use LIDS or ULIDs for the funding of city hall construction.
It is important to note that the Growth Management Act requires that the City reassesses
the land use element if probable funding falls short of meeting the existing needs as
shown in the capital facilities element. It is imperative that the land use element, capital
facilities plan element and financing plans are coordinated and consistent.

The City of Port Orchard Public Works Department developed a Comprehensive Sewer
Plan in 2000 which is available at City Hall. It is based upon information available to
the City and from several consultant studies from 1978 to 1989. It provides an in-depth
analysis of the system characteristics and potential areas for improvement and expansion
using a twenty-year time frame. 2007 The City will extend a new sewer main along
Tremont Street.
The population served by the system was estimated in Equivalent Residential Units
(ERU) which account for people present on a daily basis but who may not be residents
(e.g. school children or employees). Metered water use is based upon 180 gallons per
day, which is a State standard. The projected system population is based upon current
trends in water system use. Unanticipated major new developments are not included in
this calculation.

Total People 7524 8343 10590 12078 13560
The three basins shown above conform to the service area of the system including the
South, Central and East branches. The Southern branch serves from Pottery Avenue
northward along Port Orchard Boulevard. The Central branch serves from the
intersection of Sidney Avenue and Tremont Street northward along Cline Avenue. The
East branch serves the area to the east of Blackjack Creek. These three main trunk lines
June 1995
I-19
connect to the pump station at the Port Orchard Marina and are pumped to the treatment
facility in Annapolis.
Improvements recommended in the Sewer Plan are for increased maintenance and
replacement of basin areas that have high inflow and infiltration. Inflow and infiltration
result from rain water leaking into the lines during storms, filling up the lines and requiring
the distribution system and treatment plant to handle more water than is necessary. In
older areas of the City this problem is largely due to side sewer connections. In order to
make any meaningful improvements to the system, expensive basin -wide repairs would
be necessary. This would include replacing both laterals and side sewers. The City's
study recommends an alternative approach to major replacement of increased
maintenance and repair to maintain the efficiency of the existing laterals and trunk lines.
The study points out, however, the eventuality of the major repairs in these older
neighborhoods. There is little growth potential in the Eastern branch service basin
because it is bordered to the east by the Annapolis Sewer District. The Central branch is
surrounded by the service area of the. Eastern and Southern branches. The Southern
branch appears to be in the best position to serve most of the undeveloped properties in,
and surrounding, the City.

The City of Port Orchard Public Works Department developed a Comprehensive Water
Plan update in +969- 2006 which is available at City Hall. It is based upon available
information and consultant studies from 1970-1984 and provides a detailed analysis of
the City's water supply, storage, fire flow, and distribution system.
2006, This new Plan will be by
no later than +9% 2007. - The existing Plan identifies areas based upon
pressure zones:
A ow. r-essure zone that lies between the waterfront and Melcher Street on the west side,
Kendall Street in the central area and South Kitsap High School on the east side.
A is located generally south of the low pressure area and would
include Ross Point and adjacent areas.
Future water demand is based on water connections and estimates of consumption at
800 gallons per connection per day as required by Department of Social and Health
Services (DSHS). Distribution between the high and low zones is accomplished with a
1,000 gpm pump at the Melcher pump station so that the capacity for the lower zone is
also available for the higher zone. Taken together, the City has a supply of 2.04 million
gallons per day (mgd) without relying on its Bremerton interconnection.
The projected demand represents a growth rate of 1% per year and does not take into
account unanticipated or new major development. Undersized lines on Annapolis Hill are
the most serious problem in the existing water system grid. Low pressure on Annapolis
Hill results whenever there is a substantial demand anywhere east of Rockwell Avenue.
(This problem was addressed in 1990 when a 100,00 gallon storage tank was sited on
Morton Street to help resolve volume shortages.) Areas identified for commercial growth
will require improvements in the high pressure zone distribution grid when such
development occurs.
The Water System Plan recommends the first priority is to construct the Annapofis-HM
Well No. 10 tie-in to the City
system along Bay Street. The second priority is to make a loop in the distribution system
in the areas of Well 8 and Sherman Avenue. Water may be drawn from booth ends of a
loop so that the whole system provides more equal pressure than a dead end system. In
the long term, or as development occurs, the City should eonstruet-a-Sedgwie��
and -make a loop in services near Ross Point, Sedgwick interchange, Berry Lake Road,
