Kitsap Transit Public Hearing
Kitsap Transit Public Hearing Kitsap Transit is proposing to temporarily site bus service during construction of the North Base and Park & Ride construction at a site on Viking previously used by Poulsbo RV for recreational vehicle sales. An anticipated increase in noise is expected due to the 15 minute warm up and cycling of the handicapped ramps prior to a bus leaving the site. There is a Public Hearing to discuss the application for the Kitsap Transit Motor Vehicle Noise Variance for the Kitsap Transit Temporary Bus Service Location Administrative Conditional Use Permit and Temporary Use Permit. The hearing is scheduled for January 13, 2015 at 7pm in the Poulsbo city Hall Council Chambers.
