Ilntlroduciion
As we update Port Townsend's 20-year Comprehensive Plan, you may have heard about
different types of land use, street standards, building forms, and densities.
The People, Planet, and Prosperity Tour examines what those ideas look like in real life.
This guidebook leads you through three tour sites, along with context about what local
features shape development. Starting with context, this guidebook introduces our street
and utilities ideals and layout.
With that context, you can learn more from the three housing developments we visit on
the tour. The tour and guidebook talk about how they were built, the development
process, and how each project supports the Three Ps: People, Planet, and Prosperity.

Site Dias- 3011 Street and Sheridan Street
to & SheridanProsperity
Key Facts:
- This property belongs to Habitat for Humanity, which is designing two
single family residences for the site.
- It is challenging to manage stormwater in this area.
- Many nearby developments are not built to maximum density.
- Unclear street form, fire response/circulation, and street paving/gravel
costs thwart infill housing success.
People
oho �l
Active Transportation
There is a walking trail in the unpaved right of way on 30t" Street, and several
unpaved walking trails in a 3-block radius. There is a bus route two blocks south.
ADA Accessibility:
The area is not accessible due to existing sidewalk gaps, which prevent the
sidewalk from connecting to bus stops and services. The right of way is not
developed yet. There is an existing sidewalk gap on Sheridan from 30t" to
Hastings. The development could build 100 ft of sidewalk.

(more with ADUs)
Possible zoning opportunity: Right now, ADU ownership is tied to the main
house on a property. If we allowed ADUs to be sold individually, how would that
impact Port Townsend?
Street Development
To be determined. Currently, 30th Street and Hendricks Street are unpaved
trails, so there is no street access to the property.
Prosperity

Site ....F on IR se r ns Ferrace and LauI 6 Heights
Rosecrans Heights People, Planet, and
Prosperity
- Both neighborhoods designed concurrently by the same developer with
consolidated and re -platted land to cluster houses for more units and open space.
- Rosecrans: detached market -rate houses with open space to the west.
- Laurel Heights: attached subsidized houses, large open spaces
- New secondary fire access requirements would make infill subdivisions like these
challenging today, worsening greenfield development pressure on the city fringe or
into rural areas (sprawl).
People

ADA Accessibility: Rosecrans has sidewalk on one side of the street, and Laurel Heights
has it on both sides connecting to existing sidewalk on Discovery Road. Sidewalks
connect to Salish Coast Elementary School and public transit.
Active Transportation: Sidewalks connect with surrounding trails.

Missed zoning opportunity. Right now, ADU ownership is tied to the main house on a
property. If we allowed ADUs to be sold individually, how would that impact Port
Townsend?
Lots in Rosecrans do not have room for ADUs.
Lots in Laurel are larger and do have room.
Which is better, large lots with room for ADUs, or a greater number of smaller
independent lots?
