A symbol of growing pains Jun 09 2008, 9:07 PM Learning to live with the pains of community growth can turn friendly neighbors into enemies, especially on Bainbridge Island. There are many such examples, but none like the pocket park or grassy knoll or whatever you want to call it that separates Ericksen Avenue from Hildebrand Lane. Its where livability and density clash... where planned growth and easygoing island life butt up against each other.
How did this happen? When developers built the Island Village in the 1980s, the city, much to the consternation of business people and the delight of Ericksen residents, decided to offer access only from High School Road. It denied backside access to the development from Ericksen (via the new street, Hildebrand). The privately-owned park was supposed to be larger but it was a logical compromise, perhaps because it would be years before the planned business development south of the shopping center would be fully built. That has changed dramatically, however, with the growth of the development and the neighborhood surrounding it to the south. Now, hundreds of vehicles enter and exit the business park each day, using Wallace Way to gain access through a bank parking lot with several speed bumps.

Jun 09 2008, 9:07 PM Unfortunately, Serenity Court, a valued member of the Bainbridge Island community for more than 30 years, may be forced to close its doors sometime during the next few months. The group home for 18 developmentally disabled adults, some of whom have lived most of their lives in the old house on the hill above Lynwood Center, appears to be the victim of a financial dilemma and changes in how disabled people are cared for in the 21st century.
The future of the large group home is still undecided, but Kitsap County Consolidated Housing Authority, owner of the century-old building, faces an expensive renovation without the funding to accomplish it. The Department of Social and Health Services is against re-licensing such large group homes, preferring smaller homes for four to six adults. Simply put, the large homes are a dying breed because the current generation of young disabled adults and their families generally prefer more independent living, which is an emphasis in the smaller group settings.
