​Capital Improvement Plan


​Each year, the Parks Department develops a six-year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), establishing the capital projects that the Department will work on over those six years. The CIP aims to balance projects across the three Commissioner Districts (North, South, and Central), across different project types and sizes, while also considering available funding sources and staff capacity. The CIP guides investment to improve park facilities and recreation opportunities throughout our community.

Gordon Park Master Plan


Gordon Park is located in Central Kitsap and is adjacent to the Kitsap County Fairgrounds & Events Center (1400 Fairgrounds Rd NW, Bremerton, WA 98311). Kitsap County is developing a park master plan to identify improvements that reflect the needs and vision of the community.

Kitsap County Parks would like to thank everyone who participated in the Gordon Park Master Plan survey, workshop, and tabling events. We appreciate the time, feedback, and thoughtful input shared by community members across Kitsap County.

Together, we are working toward a park that brings people together, welcomes everyone, and supports the community's needs for years to come.

Gordon Field Turf Replacement​

This Capital Improvement Program (CIP) investment will provide a safer, more durable, and higher-quality playing surface that will benefit the community for years to come.

Gordon Field serves as a hub for youth sports, recreation programs, tournaments, and community activities. Replacing the aging synthetic turf will improve player safety, enhance playability, reduce maintenance needs, and help ensure the field remains available for the thousands of athletes, families, coaches, and spectators who rely on it throughout the year. By investing in this facility today, Kitsap County is helping preserve an important community asset while supporting healthy recreation opportunities and local events that bring people together.

While this project is focused on maintaining and improving Gordon Field 1, it is separate from the Gordon Park Master Plan. Updates related to the Master Plan and future park improvements will be shared separately.

Construction is now underway, and the field is anticipated to reopen in early August. During this time, visitors may notice construction equipment entering and leaving the area, and parking may be temporarily reduced due to equipm​ent staging. Please use caution when traveling through the area and follow all posted signage.

This project is one of many Capital Improvement Program investments being made throughout the Kitsap County Parks system to maintain and enhance community facilities. By proactively replacing aging infrastructure, Kitsap County Parks is helping ensure parks remain safe, welcoming, and ready to serve current and future generations.

We appreciate your patience as this important work is completed and look forward to welcoming players, families, and visitors back to Gordon Field later this summer.​

Point No Point Repair

We’re pleased to share that Point No Point County Park is now open, and we’re grateful to welcome visitors back.

Thank you to our neighbors and everyone who uses Point No Point Park for bearing with us throughout this project. We know the construction activity, access changes, and overall timeline have been disruptive at times. A significant part of the schedule was driven by a challenging and extended multi-agency permitting process that’s required for shoreline work and site restoration. While time-intensive, these permits are essential to ensure the work is completed safely, responsibly, and in compliance with environmental requirements.

Now that the park is open, we ask visitors to please help protect the improvements by following on-site signage and respecting any fenced restoration areas so new plantings can be established.

The North Gateway Trailhead includes:

- 75 parking stalls
