35. Currently there is no sidewalk along Berkshire Drive, but a sidewalk will be <br /> constructed to connect to the sidewalk along Evergreen Way. The closest <br /> school is to the west of the site and west of Evergreen Way. The sidewalk is <br /> not necessary because no school aged children will reside in the short <br /> subdivision. The north side of Berkshire Drive will be improved with curb, gutter <br /> and sidewalk prior to final short subdivision approval. No on-street parking will <br /> be permitted.

Even though the City has capacity in its existing utility systems to provide <br /> services to the project, the development of the site will impact the City's existing <br /> utility systems. System development fees and water and sewer connections <br /> will be required at the time of issuance of construction permits in accordance <br /> with EMC 18.40 and subsequent revisions that are applicable. The project is <br /> designed as an Ultra High Energy Efficient building to achieve passive <br /> housing/net zero energy rating and should reduce impacts to the City's existing <br /> utility systems that would be typical of a multi-family development.

The City of Everett's Police, Fire, and Parks Departments; and the <br /> Everett School District were notified of the short subdivision application. <br /> (exhibit 1, staff report, page 11; testimony of Ms. Weldon) <br /> 38.

The City entered into a partnership with CHS to implement a major component <br /> • of the City's Safe Streets Plan.
