Capital Improvement Plan

Each year, the Parks Department develops a six-year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), establishing the capital projects that the Department will work on over those six years. The CIP aims to balance projects across the three Commissioner Districts (North, South, and Central), across different project types and sizes, while also considering available funding sources and staff capacity. The CIP guides investment to improve park facilities and recreation opportunities throughout our community.

Suquamish & Indianola Sport Courts

Kitsap County Parks is moving forward with improvements to the Suquamish and Indianola sport courts, guided by the community input gathered through surveys completed in May of 2025. We’re grateful to everyone who took the time to share their thoughts and ideas; your feedback is helping shape the future of these important community spaces. Parks staff are currently reviewing all input to help inform next steps in planning and design. Stay tuned for updates as each project progresses, and thank you for your continued interest and support.

Port Gamble Forest Heritage Park – North Gateway Trailhead

Construction is underway at the North Gateway Trailhead in Port Gamble Forest Heritage Park. This project will create a new, improved access point at the north end of the park featuring:

75 parking stalls

A permanent restroom facility

This development will serve as a primary gateway for visitors, improving access to trails and recreational features in the northern section of the park.

We appreciate your patience and cooperation as we work to enhance your park experience.

	Eagles Nest Deck Repair The deck at the Eagle's Nest rental facility, located at the Kitsap County Fairgrounds, is currently inaccessible due to necessary repairs. We're pleased to share that the Eagle's Nest Deck Project is moving forward, with the Public Works Capital Facilities Division overseeing the project and managing the formal contract bidding process. This is an important step toward restoring safe access and improving the overall experience for rental users. We appreciate your patience during this time and will provide updates as the project progresses.

	Gordon Field Turf Replacement In a collaborative effort, Kitsap County Parks is exploring an opportunity with Central Kitsap School District to enhance recreational facilities for the community. During a recent meeting, both organizations discovered they are planning similar synthetic turf replacement projects. To improve project efficiency and reduce costs, Kitsap County Parks is investigating the use of a KCDA (King County Directors’ Association) procurement contract for the synthetic turf replacement at Gordon Soccer Field. Central Kitsap School District is utilizing the same KCDA contract for their own turf projects at Olympic High School and Fairview Middle School. This potential partnership reflects a shared commitment to investing in high-quality, durable play spaces for local youth and community users. More updates will be provided as the project progresses.
	Gordon Park Master Plan Gordon Park is in Central Kitsap and is adjacent to the Kitsap County Fairgrounds & Events Center. The eastern portion of Gordon Park contains two athletic fields. The remainder of the park site is largely undeveloped, though there are walking trails, an 18-hole disc golf course, and two campgrounds, which are used primarily during the annual Kitsap Fair & Stampede. The master plan process will identify improvements and ensure the park meets the needs of the community. In September, Kitsap County released a Request for Qualifications (RFQ), which is intended to seek proposals from consulting firms to work with County staff to facilitate the planning process. Work is expected to begin in 2026 and will include opportunities for public participation.
	Kitsap Kids Playground - Playground Closure Notice The Kitsap Kids Playground will be closed starting Monday, June 30th, for approximately two months due to demolition and repair work on the adjacent tennis courts operated by Central Kitsap School District. The tennis court project is expected to be completed in September, at which point the playground will reopen. Thank you for your patience as we support these important improvements!

COMPLETED PROJECTS

	Illahee Preserve ADA Trail We’re excited to announce the completion of a new ¼-mile wheelchair-friendly loop trail at Illahee Preserve in Bremerton! This accessible trail winds through a peaceful stretch of second-growth evergreens and maples, offering a serene forest experience for visitors of all mobility levels. This project was made possible thanks to a powerful partnership between the Illahee Preserve stewards, the U.S. Navy, Washington Trails Association, East Bremerton Rotary, and Kitsap County Parks staff.
	Point No Point Repair We’re pleased to share that Point No Point County Park is now open, and we’re grateful to welcome visitors back. Thank you to our neighbors and everyone who uses Point No Point Park for bearing with us throughout this project. We know the construction activity, access changes, and overall timeline have been disruptive at times. A significant part of the schedule was driven by a challenging and extended multi-agency permitting process that’s required for shoreline work and site restoration. While time-intensive, these permits are essential to ensure the work is completed safely, responsibly, and in compliance with environmental requirements. Now that the park is open, we ask visitors to please help protect the improvements by following on-site signage and respecting any fenced restoration areas so new plantings can be established.
