AGENDA ITEM (B)
Permit 25-03085: SILVERDALE WATER DISTRICT - WIXSON RESERVOIR NO.2 - Conditional Use Permit for Construction of 2 million Gallon Non-public, Unmanned Reservoir (2x6) (CUP)
Project Description: Silverdale Water District is proposing to construct a 2-million-gallon reservoir located just east of the existing 1-million-gallon reservoir on the property 8257 Dickey Road NW. The proposed tank will serve as a regional facility that supports existing and future domestic and fire flow demands within Silverdale Water District and adjacent water district service areas. The proposal includes the new steel tank, water piping, overflow piping (connecting to the existing overflow system), paved access without parking, security fencing, and a security gate. The project will be constructed as one project and will not be phased. Storm water mitigation for the proposed project is designed to meet the minimum requirements listed in Volume 1 Chapter 4.2 of the 2021 Kitsap County Stormwater Design Manual. The project will improve roughly 8,000 square feet of existing gravel impervious area and resulting in no net increase in impervious area. Flow control facilities are not proposed because the project is below the 10,000 square feet threshold. Water quality facilities are not proposed because the new hard surfaces will be limited to infrequent maintenance activities and are therefore considered nonpollution-generating.
