ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION
What is the
Comprehensive Plan?
The Kitsap
County Comprehensive Plan describes the 20-year vision for unincorporated
Kitsap County and how that vision will be achieved. The plan covers land
use, economic development, environment, housing and human services,
transportation, capital facilities and utilities as well as parks, recreation,
and open space. The Comprehensive
Plan is mandated by the Washington State Growth Management Act (RCW 36.70A).
How often does the
Comprehensive Plan get changed?
Major Comprehensive Plan updates are mandated by the state every
8-years. The last major update of the Kitsap County Comprehensive Plan was adopted
in 2016. In-between major updates, the
County may choose to consider minor amendments to the Comprehensive Plan on an
annual basis. The Board of County
Commissioners have opened the annual Comprehensive Plan amendment process for
2018.
What is the annual amendment
process and timeline?
The amendment process includes four phases:
- Phase 1 – Scoping (November – December 2018)
- Phase 2 – Development (January – April 2018)
- Phase 3 – Analysis (April – June 2018)
- Phase 4 – Consideration (June – December 2018)
