f) What impacts would the proposed change of land use designation have on the current use of other properties in the vicinity, and what measures should be taken to assure compatibility with the uses of other properties in the vicinity? g) Would the change of the land use designation sought by the proponent create pressure to change the land use designation of other properties in the vicinity? If so, would the change of land use designation for other properties be in the best long term interests of the community in general? and WHEREAS, with regard to the Tredway Corporation property, located at 5701 First Avenue,the City Council finds: 1. The proposed land use designation"Single Family Detached, 5-10 Dwellings per Gross Acre" is consistent with the locational criteria contained in the Land Use Element. 2. The existing land use designation"Agricultural" is not consistent with the portion of the subject property which is proposed to be amended, which is located outside the 100 year floodplain and has never been a viable agricultural property. 3. A portion of the subject property is zoned R-2 (Single Family Medium Density), and the abutting property to the west is also zoned R-2. 4. There are two existing single family dwellings on the subject property, which are located outside of the 100 year floodplain. 5. The subject property abuts property in the M-2 zone,upon which is located a heavy construction company which may occasionally generate noise which is audible on the subject property. 6. Changing the land use designation and zoning on the subject property from"agricultural" to "residential"will affect the application of the City's Noise Ordinance to the subject property by making it a more sensitive "receiving property." 7. The location of new dwellings is more distant from the abutting M-2 property than the existing dwelling which is to remain on the property and from other residentially zoned areas and uses which abut the M-2 property. 8. The proposed change in land use designation and zoning for a portion of the subject property is consistent with the locational criteria and policies of the Everett Growth Management Comprehensive Plan;
