The City of Port Orchard has issued a public notice regarding the Sinclair Ridge development proposal, which is poised to impact local infrastructure significantly. This initiative involves the construction of McCormick Village Drive, aimed at improving connectivity between SW Old Clifton Rd and the boundary with Bremerton. The application requires a Major Land Disturbing Activity Permit and a Storm Drainage Permit, with a public comment period open until March 25, 2022. A prior Determination of Non-Significance under the State Environmental Policy Act suggests minimal environmental impact, bolstering the proposal's credibility. Community members are encouraged to submit comments and request notifications about hearings and decisions, emphasizing the importance of meeting deadlines.

The application file is available for examination at the Permit Center, with staff available to address inquiries. The review will be conducted by the Public Works Director, in accordance with Port Orchard Municipal Code. This transparency and community involvement aim to ensure a thorough evaluation of the project’s implications.
