Volume 2: Draft Gorst Planned Action Environmental Impact Statement

GORST PLANNED ACTION EIS | AFFECTED ENVIRONMENT, SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS, AND MITIGATION MEASURESEach school district has adopted its own CFP, which was reviewed for this analysis and augmented with personalcommunication to surface any updates since the last CFP was adopted. Funding for each district is generated froma variety of sources including impact fees, city and county property taxes, and state and federal funding based onstudent enrollment. SKSD is planning two capacity projects: the first will result in two new double portables, for acapacity increase of about 100 students by 2018, and the second will result in a new high school that will addpermanent capacity for about 1,800 students. Non-capacity projects include myriad improvements to existingfacilities, and modernization or replacement of three elementary schools, Cedar Heights Junior High School, andSouth Kitsap High School. The district also plans to modernize some administrative buildings. Costs and funding formost projects are yet to be determined.Per KCC 4.110.100 D, each school district is to establish an impact fee for new housing built within the district.Impact fees for SKSD are collected by Kitsap County from development in unincorporated areas of the County, butare not collected within the City of Bremerton for its areas served by SKSD.Impact fee revenue from unincorporated development can be used to make system improvements listed in theCFP, which may include school planning, land acquisition, site improvements, offsite improvements such assidewalks, and construction and engineering. Fees are $962.60 for each single-family dwelling unit ormanufactured home and $555.35 for each multifamily dwelling unit for all districts. If in the judgment of the schooldistrict, none of the fee categories or fee amounts set forth in KCC 4.110.220 accurately describe or capture theimpacts of a new development on schools, the school district may conduct independent fee calculations andsubmit such calculations to the director.The following tables summarize projected capacity surpluses and deficits in 2035 based on current capacity andfuture enrollment under the alternatives. Estimated enrollment in 2035 is district-wide, including bothunincorporated and incorporated areas.Alternative 1Table 3.12-15 Projected SKSD LOS – Alternative 1 summarizes projected capacity for SKSD in 2035 based on currentcapacity, planned capacity improvements, and projected enrollment based on household growth. The analysis isshown based on both permanent capacity and capacity including interim facilities.
