CALL TO ORDER

OLD BUSINESS
Kitsap Countywide Planning Policies -Resolution No. 2048 (Tabled from December 8,
2003)
Council continued discussion from the meeting of December 22nd regarding the ramifications of
adopting only specific sections of the Countywide Planning Policies (CPP). City Attorney Jacoby
advised Council he had discussed the possibility with the Puget Sound Regional Council (PRSC),
and that no one seemed to know what the ramifications of passing only portions of the CPP/s
would be.
Kamuron Gurel, Kitsap County Department of Community Development, and Mary McClure, Kitsap
Regional Coordinating Council, addressed Council regarding the approval process the CPP/s had
been through to date. Dick Brown, citizen, testified that he did not believe the dollars would
directly benefit Port Orchard, and therefore the CPP 1S should not be ratified. Vivian Henderson,
representative of Kitsap Alliance of Property Owners (KAPO) asked Council to think carefully about
changes the Council wanted in the document before voting to ratify the CPP/s. Ron Rice, citizen,
expressed concern about the short time frame Council had been given to review the proposed
changes.
