County officials have been quietly arranging to open one of the largest homeless shelters in Kitsap County this summer in Port Orchard, Kitsap Daily News has learned.
The 75-bed facility is slated to open, pending permitting, at the location of the former Olympic Fitness Club building at 4459 SW Mile Hill Drive, a site that has been under consideration by officials for several months. The site is adjacent to the Port Orchard headquarters for Wave Broadband.
The shelter is expected to be operated by Kitsap Rescue Mission, a nonprofit organization that operates a homeless shelter located at the Pavilion, a large exhibition hall at the Kitsap County fairgrounds in Bremerton.
