Waaga Way Connector Roads Process

In February 2008, Kitsap County Commissioner's Office and Department of Public Works embarked on a process to locate a connector road system that is intended to link properties within the area to the new Waaga Way Extension Road. This process is also coordinated with the Department of Community Development's work to extend the Silverdale Design Guidelines in the newly designed commercial and business center lands, located north and south of the Extension Road. Ad-hoc Citizen Advisory Committees have been established to participate in the development of the connector road alignment and design guidelines. Noted below is information related to the establishment of the connector road system. Please visit the Department of Community Development for information related to the design guidelines process.
