Kitsap Trails Association to Hold Public Meetings about Trails in the String of Pearls
By Admin
According to a Kitsap Sun Article, the Kitsap Trails Association will hold two public meetings as part of its effort to develop a trail plan to present to the County Commissioners. Their volunteer efforts are part of an ongoing plan to implement the proposed “String of Pearls” trail system proposed by the Olympic Property Group.
The first meeting is April 22 at the Miller Bay fire station, 26642 Miller Bay Road NE, and the second meeting will be April 28 at the Poulsbo fire station, 911 NE Liberty Road. Both meetings will run from 7 to 9 p.m. The association will use public feedback to develop its trails plan, which it will present to county commissioners later this year.

From the Kitsap Sun:
PORT ORCHARD — By the end of the year, Kitsap County will have a comprehensive trail plan outlining routes for walkers, cyclists, and even equestrians from the south end of the county to trails already approved for North Kitsap. The trail system would include direct routes between Kitsap’s cities and unincorporated population centers to make it safe for bicyclists to get to and from work, as well as routes that spur off from the main connector trails to link to parks and recreational areas.

Jody Kahn at John Burns Real Estate Consulting filed this report based on interviews with construction executives. In essence it boils down to saying that difficulties with getting VA appraisals to come in at value are affecting many new construction home sales.
