The Kitsap County Board of Commissioners is committed to supporting our communities and preserving the rural character that makes our County special. This year, we're undertaking a comprehensive review of rural policies and development opportunities to ensure we're meeting the needs of rural residents while protecting the landscapes and way of life that define Kitsap.
As part of the County's Year of the Rural, the Board is considering 17 rural rezone requests throughout the County. These 17 requests were included in the 2025 docket and represent an important focus on rural development opportunities.

Your input is essential to this process. We encourage you to participate and engage with us throughout the year. Both meetings are open to the public, and details for attending online or in-person are available on the County website.

The Year of the Rural will include more chances for input—through community workshops, comment periods, and public hearings. Updates about this program will be provided by our Department of Community Development. To sign up for these, visit our Kitsap County Electronic Notification System registration page and select the topic 'Year of the Rural.'
