You are receiving this e-mail because you expressed interest in the Perry Site
Specific Comprehensive Plan Amendment request in Manchester (File # 08 52165).
As a reminder, the request is to rezone seven parcels on a a 21.17 acre project
site from Manchester Village Low Residential (MVLR) to Manchester Village
Residential (MVR). Allowable residential density would increase from 2 dwelling
units/acre to 4 dwelling units/acre.
The following summarizes recent procedural developments and explains upcoming
steps in the review process.
Planning Commission public hearing, deliberations, and recommendations
On the evening of August 12, the Kitsap County Planning Commission heard
statements regarding the proposal from 16 citizens. Following the public
hearing, the Commission discussed related issues and asked staff for
clarification. A motion was then made to support staff's recommendation for
denial. This motion was seconded and put to a vote. 4 Planning Commissioners
voted in favor of the motion, 1 Commissioner voted against, and 2 abstained due
to conflicts of interest. 2 Commissioners were absent.
5 votes are required for a motion to carry forward. Thus, the Perry proposal
will come before the Board of County Commissioners with no formal recommendation from the Planning Commission. Commissioners will consider the applicant's proposal, staff's recommendation, public comments, and proceedings from the August 12 Planning Commission meeting in their evaluation.
Planning Commission information can be accessed at: http://www.kitsapgov.com/dcd/pc/default.htm
An audio recording of the Aug. 12 meeting is currently available, and meeting
minutes will be posted after they are approved at the August 26 Planning
Commission meeting.
Board of County Commissioners review and decision Staff will brief Commissioners at a work study session tentatively scheduled during morning hours on November 5. This informational session is open to the public, but the agenda will not include time for public testimony. A final public hearing and decision from the Board of County Commissioners is tentatively scheduled for the evening of November 24, 2008. The public will be notified of this meeting.
