17.354.010 How to use the design criteria.
The “requirement sections” in the following design criteria for Kitsap County apply to each project requiring conditional use review under Chapters 17.420 or 17.421 of this title. These design criteria are intended to supplement the development standards of the Urban Village Commercial (UVC) and Urban Town Center (UTC) zones. Where the provisions of this Chapter 17.354 conflict with the provisions of the UVC and UTC zones in Chapter 17.353, the provisions of the zoning district shall apply. The “guidelines” that follow each requirement statement are suggested ways to achieve the design intent. Each guideline is meant to indicate the preferred conditions, but other equal or better design solutions will be considered acceptable by the director or hearing examiner, so long as these solutions meet the intent of these sections. Where a requirement and/or guideline is followed by the abbreviations UVC or UTC – these requirements and/or guidelines are applicable to that particular zone found in Chapter 17.353.

17.354.020 Site design – Streets, trails and open space.
A. Requirement. Arrange the streets and trails on the site so that the central internal open space and other community facilities can be accessed from all areas of the development without using an arterial street. The street layout shall be a modified grid street pattern adapted to the topography, unique natural features, and environmental constraints of the site. The street layout shall provide direct convenient access to the Village or Town Center, community focus areas, and internal open space areas, and shall showcase gateways and vistas. When making connections with adjacent neighborhoods, use traffic calming techniques where necessary. Public access shall be provided to water bodies as required by the Shoreline Management Act.
B. Guideline.
1. Street layout should have a minimum of two interconnections with the existing public street system rated as an arterial or collector (UVC, UTC).
2. The modified grid street pattern should define blocks that are two hundred fifty to three hundred fifty feet long (UVC, UTC).
3. When a block face is longer than three hundred fifty feet, an alley should be provided with through access to another street or alley (UVC, UTC).
4. Street layout that includes access from alleys to development is preferred (UVC, UTC).
5. Blocks should be designed to have a maximum length of six hundred feet from street to street and should either continue through the intersection or terminate in a “T” intersection directly opposite the center of a building, an internal open space area, or a view into a peripheral open space area (UVC, UTC).
Diagram of a modified grid street pattern built around a Village or Town Center. Note the connections to the surrounding street system. Each Village or Town Center must have at least two peripheral attachments.
6. A majority of the streets should be curved or terminated so that no street vista is longer than one thousand two hundred feet (UVC, UTC).
7. Provide a connected system of recreation areas, trails, and natural open spaces that are linked to the Village or Town Center and to natural features by streets or foot paths (UVC, UTC).
8. Provide street linkages, including pedestrian and bike facilities to adjacent developments and neighborhoods where possible (UVC, UTC).
9. Encourage pedestrian accessibility from adjacent residential neighborhoods by the use of through-block connections or other accessibility methods (UVC, UTC).
10. Where there are wildlife habitat areas on a Village or Town Center site, connect them to adjacent habitat areas to facilitate wildlife movement (UVC, UTC).
(Ord. 415 (2008) § 124 (part), 2008; Ord. 311 (2003) [Attachment 7 (part)], 2003)
17.354.030 Site design and orientation – Location and use of centers and common open spaces.
A. Requirement. Common open space shall be used for social, recreational, and/or natural environment preservation purposes. It shall include at least one internal open space (such as a Village Center Park) that will serve as a center around which commercial, mixed use, and some higher density housing may be located (UVC, UTC).
B. Guideline.
1. An internal open space should be designed as a center park, town square, or urban park, should be an active gathering place in both day and evening, and should include places for strolling, sitting, social interaction, and recreation (UTC, UVC).
2. All commercial development in villages and centers should be within approximately six hundred feet of an existing or planned transit stop (UTC, UVC).
3. Surround the center park with a concentration of high-density development that may include commercial, residential, public and semi-public uses, community clubs, and community facilities (UTC, UVC).
4. The center park should be landscaped using elements such as formal gardens, walkways, monuments, statues, gazebos, fountains, park benches, children’s play equipment, small playfields and pedestrian-scale lamp posts (UVC, UTC).
5. Internal open spaces should be landscaped with trees and shrubs that do not visually obstruct scenic vistas (UVC, UTC).
6. A center green or plaza should have a distinct geometric shape. Streets with curbside parking may surround it, or it may abut major commercial, residential, civic, or other buildings, achieving a sense of scale and enclosure from them. While a center plaza should include trees, shrubs, and other landscape materials, it may emphasize decorative paving and other materials and surfaces appropriate to high pedestrian traffic areas (UVC, UTC).
(Ord. 415 (2008) § 124 (part), 2008; Ord. 311 (2003) [Attachment 7 (part)], 2003)
17.354.040 Site design and orientation – Gateways and focal points.
A. Requirement. Distinct or prominent buildings shall be located at gateways within a Village or Town Center at focal points, such as corner sites or landmarks, or at points of visual termination (UVC, UTC).
B. Guideline.
1. Prominent, monumental buildings or structures should mark gateways, focal points, or points of visual termination. This can be accomplished by using:
a. Distinct massing (such as the use of recessed entries, contrasting materials and architectural features that identify a bottom, middle and top of a building);
b. Additional height or the appearance of enhanced height (such as with the use of roof pitches and shapes, or cornice detail); and/or
c. Distinct architectural embellishments or ornamentation that break up and create variety on flat facades.
Focal points should terminate views down streets.
Gateway buildings should mark transition areas.
Provide a clear sense of entry upon arrival to the building.
(Ord. 415 (2008) § 124 (part), 2008; Ord. 311 (2003) [Attachment 7 (part)], 2003)
17.354.050 Site design and orientation – Pedestrian/sidewalk orientation.
A. Requirement. Create an interesting street that is visually attractive, and easy to use for pedestrians who will live, work or shop in the area.
B. Guideline.
1. Orientation.
a. Store fronts should face the core area, center park, and/or sidewalk of the streets on the site (UVC, UTC).
b. Buildings fronting on a center park, green or plaza should be at least two stories high (UVC, UTC).
c. Corner lots at major street entry points or Village or Town Center areas should be occupied by buildings or structures designed to emphasize their prominent location (UVC, UTC).
d. Locate service and delivery away from the main streets where possible, using alleys or side streets where possible (UVC, UTC).
e. Site design should accommodate transit on transit routes:
i. Bordering the site, and
ii. Within a core area that may have transit service (UVC, UTC).
2. Enhanced Pedestrian Access.
a. Direct pedestrian access should be provided from sidewalks and parking lots to building entrances, bus stops, and adjacent buildings. Where practical and consistent with the other provisions of the zone, parking isles should be aligned perpendicular to the building, and pedestrian access should be separate from vehicular travel lanes (UVC, UTC).
Parking isles perpendicular to a building entrance are preferred to allow easy and safe connection to building entrances. A convenient pedestrian walkway should be provided between a sidewalk and the building entrance where a sidewalk is separated by a parking lot.
b. Where a parking lot separates a building entrance from a sidewalk in the rights-of-way, a pedestrian walkway at least six feet in width should be provided connecting the street, the sidewalk and the building entrance. Such crossings should be clearly marked (UVC, UTC).
c. Define walkways with vertical plants (such as trees or shrubs) and lighting (UVC, UTC).
d. Street lights, utility poles, benches, trees, trash receptacles and similar streetscape fixtures should, to the greatest extent practical, be situated so that sidewalks in the rights-of-way have a passable width of at least five feet (UVC, UTC).
e. A walkway or shared bike/pedestrian network should be provided throughout the site that interconnects all dwelling units with other units, nonresidential uses, and common open space. Bike and pedestrian ways should be part of the street and alley network, but additional connections may be provided (UVC, UTC).
3. Enhanced Pedestrian Amenity. Walkway materials and patterns and pedestrian amenities such as benches, shelters, trash receptacles, street trees, pedestrian lighting, and drinking fountains should be coordinated to provide some uniformity of design throughout the site. Such improvements should comply with any applicable, adopted streetscape plan and should be incorporated into the Village or Town Center (UVC, UTC).
4. Possible amenities include:
a. Walls and planters that can be used for seating (UVC, UTC);
b. Seating in a variety of locations such as places that are sunny, sheltered from the rain and wind, or shaded in the summer (UVC, UTC);
c. Fountains or sculpture incorporated into small under-utilized areas (UVC, UTC);
d. Seating that allows users to observe the activities of the street or enjoy a scenic view (UVC, UTC);
e. Plazas and courtyards with fountains, sculpture, mobiles, flower boxes, kiosks, banners, etc. (UVC, UTC);
f. Street vendor stations where allowed (UVC, UTC); and bike racks (UVC, UTC).
5. Add Character and Visual Diversity to Walkways.
a. Use a change in color and materials such as pavers, brick, stone, and exposed aggregate set in patterns to add interest and variety to walking surface (UVC, UTC).
Pavers can be used to clearly identify pedestrian areas.
b. Identify street crossings through changes in color, materials, or patterns (UVC, UTC).
c. Separate the pedestrian from the street by placing planters, street trees and planter strips, bollards, or similar elements at the street edge of the sidewalk (UVC, UTC).
d. Encourage the use of alleys by pedestrians by providing alleys with lighting, plantings, and paving materials in areas of the site where the alley is or may be used as a pedestrian link (UVC, UTC).
6. On-Site Parking.
a. Parking shall be located on the side or behind the buildings, because the goal is to have buildings as the dominant feature on corner lots (UVC, UTC).
b. Off-street parking should have access from alleys or from streets at locations that do not conflict with pedestrian circulation in the center park or main street (UVC, UTC).
c. Minimize the apparent width of parking lots that are located adjacent to the street through landscaping and screening (UVC, UTC).
d. Limit parking lots to thirty percent of the street frontage of the property. Exceptions may be considered for grocery store parking lots. An exempted grocery store parking lot should not face a center park or plaza (UVC, UTC).
e. Maintain the building line by screening parking lots that abut the street. Hedges, fences, raised planters, and low walls combined with plantings are possible solutions, as long as they do not obscure vehicular sight lines necessary for safety. Also consider extending the facade of a building with parking located behind it (UVC, UTC).
f. Where parking structures or covered parking faces the street, at least sixty percent of the parking structure facing the street between two and eight feet above the sidewalk should incorporate at least one of the following treatments where pedestrian-oriented businesses are located along the facade of the structure (UVC, UTC):
i. Transparent windows (with clear or lightly tinted glass);
ii. Display windows;
iii. Decorative metal grille work or similar detailing that provides texture and covers parking structure openings (not including entrances and exits);
iv. Art or architectural treatment such as sculpture, mosaic, glass block, opaque art glass, relief art work, or similar features; or
g. Vehicle entries to garages should be recessed at least six feet from the primary facade plane in order to minimize their prominence.
7. Lighting. To accent structures, conserve energy and provide visibility and security with lighting, consider the following (UVC, UTC):
a. Use lighting to accent key architectural elements or to emphasize landscape features (UVC, UTC);
b. Provide well-lighted pedestrian sidewalks and alleys in accordance with adopted County standards (UVC, UTC);
c. Locate lighting so as not to have a negative impact on adjacent properties such as shining off site into adjacent buildings (UVC, UTC); and
d. Decorative street lights should be placed at regular intervals throughout the development (UVC, UTC).
8. Physical Context. Conform floor elevations to sidewalk grades where possible, except for residential units where first floors may be elevated two to four feet above grade to provide privacy (UVC, UTC).
Entries to residential units with small setbacks are raised two to four feet above the sidewalk grade to provide privacy for residents.
9. Consolidation.
a. Consider using common wall side-by-side development with continuity of facades (as allowed by Section 17.353.050, Lot requirements) (UVC, UTC).
b. Consolidate required parking for several businesses within one parking lot, wherever possible (UVC, UTC).
10. Buildings internal to a Village or Town Center shall generally face and be located on pedestrian streets. This will allow entries, display windows, and building facades to create a continuous row of storefronts and residences.
11. Parking shall be clustered and/or located on the side or behind buildings and be designed in a way that gives pedestrians access to building entrances that are as direct as possible (UVC, UTC). Exceptions to building and parking orientation may be made for grocery stores. The orientation and facade of a building adjacent to an arterial or major collector shall be designed to enhance the adjacent neighborhood.
12. Buildings and parking lots located adjacent to an arterial or major collector on the edge of a village or center shall be designed and oriented to:
a. Maximize the presence and prominence of the building on village corners and at gateways; and
b. Minimize the presence and prominence of parking lots.
Where a building entry faces a parking lot, pedestrian linkages to the internal street network must be as pleasant, visible, well lit, and direct as possible (UVC, UTC).
(Ord. 415 (2008) § 124 (part), 2008; Ord. 311 (2003) [Attachment 7 (part)], 2003)
17.354.060 Site design and orientation – Fences and walls adjacent to pedestrian scale streets.
A. Requirement. Design the site to minimize the need for fences and walls that inhibit or discourage pedestrian use of sidewalks or paths, isolate neighborhoods, or separate neighborhoods from main roads. Allow exceptions where necessary to reduce noise, provide buffers or create private yards (UVC, UTC).
B. Guideline.
1. Consider shrubs and natural landscaping, wherever possible, as an alternative to fences and walls.
2. Where fences or walls are necessary to reduce noise, provide buffers, or create private yards, consider the following guidelines to maintain a pedestrian scale along the street (UVC, UTC):
a. Provide art (mosaic, mural decorative masonry pattern, sculpture, relief, etc.) over a substantial portion of the blank wall surface (UVC, UTC);
b. Employ small setbacks, indentations, stepped fence heights, or other means of breaking up the wall or fence surface and height (UVC, UTC);
c. Employ different texture, colors, or materials (including landscape materials) to break up the wall’s surface (UVC, UTC);
d. Provide special lighting, a canopy, awning, horizontal trellis or other pedestrian-oriented feature that breaks up the size of the blank wall’s surface and adds visual interest (UVC, UTC); and
e. If fencing is required, repeat the use of facade building materials on fence columns and/or stringers (UVC, UTC).

A. Requirement. Provide adequate signs for businesses while maintaining the building’s architectural integrity, by locating signs so that building details shall not be covered or obscured (UVC, UTC). Signs shall conform to the requirements set forth in Chapter 17.445 of this title.
B. Guideline.
1. Use sign panel shapes that accentuate the building’s architectural forms (UVC, UTC);
2. Use window signs where wall signs would detract from architectural elements of the building facade. Symbols for the business such as a pair of eyeglasses can be used to add detail that can be viewed from the sidewalk (UVC, UTC);
3. Keep signs subordinate to the building design (UVC, UTC);
4. Coordinate colors with the colors of the building (UVC, UTC);
5. When several businesses share the same building, use directory signs where possible and use similar sizes and types of signs (UVC, UTC); and
6. Addresses must be clearly visible from the street edge (UVC, UTC).

17.354.140 Signs – Freestanding.
A. Requirement. Provide adequate signage for businesses when building mounted signs cannot be used because they will obscure the architectural details of the building (UVC, UTC). Signs shall conform to the requirements set forth in Chapter 17.445 of this title.
B. Guideline.
1. A key design feature should be a compact building pattern with buildings located close to and behind the sidewalks and street trees separating the sidewalk from moving vehicles. In an effort to reduce the number of view obstructions in Village and Town Centers, signs should be attached to the building. However, where buildings are set back from the sidewalk and/or property line, freestanding signs would be an appropriate second choice using the following guidelines:
a. Freestanding signs should be limited in size and height. The maximum height should be four feet above grade (UVC, UTC);
b. For visual clarity, the lettering style and colors should be limited to two lettering styles and three colors (UVC, UTC); and
c. Incorporate signs in planters or as screening walls (UVC, UTC).

ARTICLE 3 – MULTI-FAMILY PROJECTS IN THE UVC AND UTC ZONES (INCLUDING TOWNHOUSES OF FIVE UNITS OR MORE)
17.354.150 Multi-family – Site design – Orientation.
A. Requirement. Design multi-family projects to be oriented towards the core area or center park/plaza in the Village or Town Center (UVC, UTC).
B. Guideline.
1. Use a modified street grid system with buildings fronting on a street (UVC, UTC).
a. Parking areas should be located behind or under buildings and accessed from alley-type driveways. If driveway access from streets is necessary, minimum-width driveways meeting the fire access standards should be used (UVC, UTC);
b. Each building should have direct pedestrian access from the street fronting the building and from the back where the parking is located (UVC, UTC).
2. Another alternative may be to orient the buildings into U-shaped courtyards where the front door/main entry into the building is from a front courtyard. Access to the courtyard from the rear parking area should be through a well-lighted breezeway or stairway. This alternative will work where projects abut an arterial or major collector street where the quality of living could be enhanced with buildings facing into the courtyard. The buildings would still be located between the street and the parking lot (UVC, UTC).
(Ord. 415 (2008) § 124 (part), 2008; Ord. 311 (2003) [Attachment 7 (part)], 2003)
17.354.160 Multi-family – Site design – Parking location and design.
A. Requirement. Minimize the impact of driveways and parking lots on pedestrians and neighboring properties by designing and locating parking lots, carports, and garages in a way that creates few interruptions on the street, sidewalk or building facade (UVC, UTC).
B. Guideline.
1. Locate surface parking at rear or side of lot (UVC, UTC);
2. Break large parking lots into small ones, and share with adjacent property owners where possible (UVC, UTC);
3. Minimize the number and width of driveways and curb cuts (UVC, UTC);
4. Share driveways with adjacent property owners (UVC, UTC);
5. Locate parking in areas that are less visible from the street (UVC, UTC);
6. Locate driveways so they are visually less dominant (UVC, UTC);
7. Berm and landscape parking lots when they are visible from the street (UVC, UTC);
8. Screen parking lots abutting single-family residences with landscaping and/or fencing (UVC, UTC); and
9. Limit parking lots on street frontages to thirty percent of the street frontage (UVC, UTC).

17.354.170 Multi-family – Site design – Mailboxes, site lighting, and bus stops.
A. Requirement. Provide adequate lighting and pedestrian access to mailboxes, and bus stops (UVC, UTC).
B. Guideline.
1. Mail Boxes. If common mailboxes are used, they should be located near the project entry or any recreational facilities, as approved by the U.S. Postal Service. The architectural character should be similar in form, materials, and colors to the surrounding buildings. Mailboxes should be well lit and pedestrian-accessible (UVC, UTC).
2. Site Lighting.
a. Site lighting (pedestrian-scale, low-level lighting) should be provided throughout, and located at the walkways (UVC, UTC);
b. Security lighting should be provided in the parking areas, play areas and bus stops (UVC, UTC);
c. Lighting should not shine into the dwelling units on the site (UVC, UTC); and
d. Lighting should be directed away from neighboring development (UVC, UTC).

17.354.190 Multi-family – Building design – Neighborhood scale.
A. Requirement. Architectural scale of those portions of a multi-family building facing a neighborhood with a different scale shall use design techniques that minimize the contrast in scale (UVC, UTC). [See illustration below.]
B. Guideline.
1. Use house-size building elements when locating a multi-family project adjacent to a single-family neighborhood by employing any of the following techniques:
a. Place one- and two-story units adjacent to existing one-story houses, and two- and three-story units adjacent to existing two-story houses (UVC, UTC);
b. Use wall plane articulation/modulation to break a multi-family building into house size building elements, especially where there is a building height transition (UVC, UTC);
c. Design the exterior of multi-family buildings to appear as a single building, such as a large single-family detached dwelling (UVC, UTC).
This higher density multi-family building “steps back” to conform to the abutting lower density property. This use of modulation helps the multi-family building fit into the neighborhood.
Preferred: This is a multifamily building which has been built on an identical site, but whose design has taken clues from the neighborhood. This building covers roughly the same lot area and provides for the same number of units while appearing as if it “fits” in its surroundings.
To be avoided: This multifamily building has been built on a site surrounded by single-family development. The building bears no resemblance to the existing surrounding buildings and looks out of place.

17.354.200 Multi-family – Building design – Privacy.
A. Requirement. Orient buildings to provide privacy, to the extent practical, both within the multi-family project and for the neighborhood (UVC, UTC).
B. Guideline.
1. Locate windows so that residents from one unit cannot look directly into another unit (UVC, UTC);
2. Locate parking lots so that they do not impose on the ground floor units’ privacy. If this is not feasible, locate buildings so that adequate landscaping can be planted to provide privacy (UVC, UTC).
(Ord. 415 (2008) § 124 (part), 2008; Ord. 311 (2003) [Attachment 7 (part)], 2003)
17.354.210 Multi-family – Building design – facade, footprint, and roof articulation.
A. Requirement. Avoid the barracks-like quality of flat walls and roofs by separations, changes in plane and height, and the inclusion of elements such as balconies, porches, arcades, dormers, and cross gables (UVC, UTC).
B. Guideline.
1. Buildings should be divided and given human scale by using articulation and/or modulation at least every thirty feet. Ways to do this include the following:
a. Facade modulation – stepping back or extending forward a portion of the facade at least six feet (measured perpendicular to the front facade), for each interval (UVC, UTC);
b. Articulating each interval with architectural elements like porches, balconies, bay windows and/or covered entries (UVC, UTC);
c. Articulating the roofline by stepping the roof and by emphasizing dormers, chimneys, gables (UVC, UTC); and
d. Providing a ground or wall mounted light fixture, a trellis, a tree, or other site feature within each interval (UVC, UTC).
2. Reduce the apparent size of multi-family buildings by using:
a. Roof design that employs:
i. Gable, gambrel or hipped roof;
ii. Broken or articulated roof line;
iii. Prominent cornice or fascia that emphasizes the top of the building; or
iv. Other roof elements that emphasizes a building’s concept and enables it to fit in with neighboring structures with prominent roofs (UVC, UTC);
b. Using architectural details that are well proportioned to achieve human scale such as:
i. Entry details like covered porches and recesses;
ii. Occupiable spaces like bay windows and balconies;
iii. Window details like vertically proportioned window openings that are recessed into the face of the building and broken up with smaller panes of glass;
iv. Roof details like brackets, chimneys, roof overhangs of at least sixteen inches (measured horizontally), or roof cornice elements at least twelve inches in width (measured vertically);
iv. Windows that are trimmed to create relief in the facade by being detailed to appear to recede into the building face (UVC, UTC).
3. Where parking structures or covered parking faces the street, at least sixty percent of the parking facade facing the street between two and eight feet above the sidewalk should incorporate at least one of the following treatments where pedestrian-oriented businesses are located along the facade of the structure (UVC, UTC):
a. Transparent windows (with clear or lightly tinted glass);
b. Display windows;
c. Decorative metal grille work (or similar detailing) that provides texture and covers parking structure openings (not including entrances and exits); or
d. Art or architectural treatment such as sculpture, mosaic, glass block, opaque art glass, relief art work, or similar features.
4. Vehicle entries to garages should be recessed at least six feet from the primary facade plane in order to minimize their prominence (UVC, UTC).
(Ord. 415 (2008) § 124 (part), 2008; Ord. 311 (2003) [Attachment 7 (part)], 2003)

A. Requirement. Provide clearly defined building or courtyard entries that are well lighted, easily accessible, and satisfy the Washington State Barrier Free Regulations (UVC, UTC).
B. Guideline. The entrances should be plainly visible from the fronting street and walkway. The use of distinctive architectural elements and materials to denote prominent entrances will be encouraged. The entries should include a transition space from the sidewalks such as steps, a terrace, or a landscaped area (UVC, UTC). Dark, hidden corridors or stairways and long entry balconies are discouraged (UVC, UTC). Avoid the use of exterior stairways when porches and front doors can be used as a primary building entry. If exterior stairways are used, they should fit with the architectural massing and form of the multi-family structure. Thin-looking, open metal, prefabricated stairs are discouraged (UVC, UTC).
Clear entries to the sidewalk encourage pedestrian circulation.
(Ord. 415 (2008) § 124 (part), 2008; Ord. 311 (2003) [Attachment 7 (part)], 2003)
17.354.225 Building design – Windows.
A. Requirement. Provide relief, detail, and variation on the facade by employing well-proportioned openings (as defined in Guideline (B)(1), below) that are designed to create shade and shadow detail.
B. Guideline. Provide horizontal and vertical variation in windows. Bay and projecting windows are encouraged.
1. Use vertically proportioned windows that generally have a height one and one-half times their width;
2. Use multiple-paned windows;
3. Build windows either recessed or protruding (such as bay windows);
4. Use significant trim (drip cap, sill, trim); and
5. Provide ground floor windows that have a greater vertical height than upper story windows.
(Ord. 311 (2003) [Attachment 7 (part)], 2003)
17.354.230 Multi-family – Building design – Materials and colors.
A. Requirement. Use exterior building materials that have texture or pattern and lend themselves to a high level of quality and detailing.
B. Guideline.
1. The selection and use of exterior materials and colors are key ingredients in determining how a building will look. Some materials, by their nature, can give a sense of permanence or provide texture or human scale that enables new buildings to fit better in their surroundings (UVC, UTC). Use exterior materials that are durable, easily maintainable and are attractive even when viewed up close.
2. Preferred materials in Kitsap County include:
a. Clear/painted horizontal or lap siding;
b. Shingles;
c. Brick;
d. Stone;
e. Stucco;
f. Stucco-like exterior insulation finish systems, used in small modules; and
g. Ceramic or terra cotta tile.
3. Bright or intense colors should be reserved for accent or trim. Colors should be chosen to visually reduce the size of buildings that are larger than others in the neighborhood. Changes in wall colors should differentiate the ground floor from the upper floors.
4. Changes in materials on larger buildings should be coordinated with articulation and modulation within the building’s architecture. Changes in the building materials can also be used to differentiate the ground floor from upper floors of the building and should vary from building to building in multi-building projects (UVC, UTC).

a. Roof design. Pitched or articulated roof line, or other roof elements such as eyebrow roof forms or dormers that emphasize building form and help it to fit in with neighboring structures with prominent roofs (UVC, UTC).
b. Architectural details that are well proportioned to achieve human scale such as:
i. Entry details like porches and recesses;
ii. Occupiable spaces like bay windows and balconies;
iii. Window details like vertically proportioned window openings which are recessed into the face of the building and broken up with smaller panes of glass;
iv. Roof details like brackets, chimneys, roof overhangs of at least sixteen inches (measured horizontally);
v. Windows that create relief in the facade by being detailed to appear to recede into the building face (UVC, UTC).

17.354.280 Duplexes – Building design – Garage design.
A. Requirement. Design garages and carports in a way that does not dominate the dwelling’s front facade. If an alley exists, the garage or carport shall be located off the alley. Otherwise, garages and carports shall be located behind the residence with or without a partial view from the street, or stepped back from the facade of the building, or located below sidewalk grade (UVC, UTC).
B. Guideline.
1. The entrance to a residence should be plainly visible from the fronting street and the walkway and should not be dominated by a garage or carport (UVC, UTC).
2. Driveways should be as narrow as possible and shared where possible to minimize disruption of the sidewalk and planting strip by curb cuts. The use of wheel tracks or a grass/concrete porous pavement system is encouraged (UVC, UTC).
3. Garage sidewalls that face the street (e.g., as a result of garages being aligned at an angle or perpendicular with the house) should appear to contain habitable space. This can be accomplished by incorporating windows and other design elements into the garage wall that are in character with the remainder of the dwelling (UVC, UTC).
