Liberty Hall. The bulk of the campus is located northwest of the subject property. Jane <br />Hendricks Testimony; Charles Macklin Testimony; Site View; Everett Community <br />College Website.4 <br />5. As noted above, the project site is within the ECC Institutional Overlay Zone. Typically, <br />institutional overlay zones are established in order to create alternative development <br />standards for institutional uses. An institutional overlay zone is required to be <br />accompanied by a master plan, which is attached to and further explains the adopted <br />Overlay zone. Both the overlay zone and the associated master plan go through a public <br />process including review by the Planning Commission and ending in City Council <br />approval. In 1997 the ECC Institutional Overlay Zone and Master Plan were established <br />by City Council ordinance No. 22 32-97 pursuant to EMC 19.33B at ECC's request in <br />order to expand the ECC campus in north Everett into an area that was formerly zoned R- <br />2 Single -Family Residential. The 1997 Master Plan included only property owned by <br />ECC. Expansions of the Overlay adopted by the City Council in 2005 and 2008 to allow <br />further growth by ECC incorporated properties not owned by ECC into the Overlay. The <br />2005 Overlay Zone update incorporated the subject property into the Institutional <br />Overlay Zone. A chronology of the expansion of the ECC Institutional Overlay Zone and <br />Master Plan was provided in the record at Exhibit C-8. The 2008 Master Plan (current <br />version) is binding upon the College and the City, although flexibility is built into the <br />Plan and related code provisions. Exhibits E-24, C-8, and C-21; David Tyler Testimony. <br />6. Ordinance No. 3089-08, through which the 2008 Campus Master Plan was adopted, <br />required that ECC submit an updated master plan by 2015. Exhibit E-24. The College <br />submitted its Fall 2014 Facilities Master Plan to meet this condition. Exhibit E-25. The <br />City Council acknowledged this Fall 2014 Facilities Master Plan as a draft master plan in <br />Resolution 6922-15, which stated, "[t]he information in the draft revised ECC master <br />plan will be useful in the subarea planning process the City will initiate in January, <br />2016." Exhibit E-28. Presently, the 2014 Facilities Master Plan submitted by ECC <br />remains an un-adopted, draft master plan. Exhibit C-21; Dave Tyler Testimony. Pat <br />Sisneros, Vice President for College Services, acknowledged that the City Council <br />accepted the 2014 master plan document in anticipation of a subarea master planning <br />process to begin in 2016, in which the 2014 master plan document would be used. He <br />testified that as far as he knows, that master planning process has not begun yet. Pat <br />Sisneros Testimony. <br />7. The 0.52-acre subject property is bounded by N.
