1.0 Introduction 1.1 Shoreline Master Program Introduction This Shoreline Master Program (SMP) establishes policies and regulations for protection and development of Bainbridge Island’s shoreline areas. The regulations in the Shoreline Master Program state specific legal requirements which future development must follow. The policies in the Shoreline Master Program state the underlying objectives the regulations are intended to accomplish. The policies are a component of the City’s Comprehensive Plan and guide the interpretation and enforcement of the Shoreline Master Program’s regulations. The policies are not regulations in themselves and, therefore, do not impose requirements beyond those set forth in the regulations. 1.1.1 Purpose and Intent The Shoreline Master Program is intended to implement the Shoreline Management Act of 1971 (Revised Code of Washington (RCW 90.58) by: Planning for and guiding the orderly development of the shoreline in a positive, effective, and equitable manner, protecting shoreline resources, and helping to assure public access to the shoreline; Promoting the health, safety, and general welfare of the community by providing long range, comprehensive policies and effective, reasonable regulations for use and development of Bainbridge Island’s shorelines; Ensuring, at minimum, no net loss of shoreline ecological functions and processes; Planning for the restoration of shorelines that have been impaired or degraded in the past and in a manner that educates the community in the use and protection of its shorelines; and Adhering to and fostering the policies of the Act contained in RCW 90.58.020 for shorelines of the state. 1.2 Requirements of the Shoreline Management Act In June 1971, the Washington State Legislature approved a comprehensive regulatory program for shorelines of the state with the adoption of the Shoreline Management Act of 1971 (SMA or Act). The Act carried with it provisions for a vote by the people and in November 1972, the people of the State of Washington enacted the Shoreline Management Act (RCW 90.58). The Act’s paramount objectives are to protect and restore the valuable natural resources that shoreline represent, and to plan for and foster all “reasonable and appropriate uses” that are dependent upon a waterfront location, including single family development, or that offer the opportunities for the public to enjoy the State’s shoreline. With this clear mandate, the Shoreline Management Act establishes a planning and regulatory program, initiated at the local level under State guidelines.
