2018 KITSAP COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT REMAND
On November 25, 2019, the Kitsap County Board of Commissioners adopted an ordinance (No. 583-2019) to resolve an appeal of a 2018 Kitsap County Comprehensive Plan amendment. The 2018 amendment adjusted the southeast boundary of the George’s Corner Limited Area of More Intensive Rural Development (LAMIRD), which is located in North Kitsap around the intersection of SR-104 and Miller Bay Rd. The newly adopted ordinance repealed the 2018 amendment resulting in the LAMIRD and zoning boundaries returning to their original configuration.

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. Between major updates, the County may choose to consider minor amendments to the Comprehensive Plan on an annual basis. Other amendments, such as to resolve an appeal, can be processed at any time.
