Ordinance 3311-13 - Laserfiche WebLink

Exhibit A to Ordinance No. Central Waterfront Redevelopment Plan current demand, but Non-water-dependent uses may offer greater potential economic benefit if such uses can be identified and attracted to the site. K. Changes to the Comprehensive Plan or Shoreline Master Program None of the land use alternatives would require an amendment to the land use designations of the City's Growth Management Comprehensive Plan. Of the four land use alternatives, only Alternative 3 (Business Park and Public Access)would require amendments to the Everett Shoreline Master Program and Comprehensive Plan policies. This alternative would require a limited amendment to allow for non-water-dependent industrial uses within shoreline jurisdiction, and to require public access in the "deepwater port" shoreline use environment. L. Preferred Alternative Based upon the economic report, public comments, Planning Commission feedback,proposed site remediation and cleanup plan, and input from Kimberly-Clark, the Port of Everett and Naval Station Everett, the Preferred Alternative being recommended by City staff combines elements of the four Land Use/Public Access Alternatives and mitigation measures identified in the SEPA Addendum. See Figure I. Following review, revision and recommendation from Planning Commission, City Council will adopt an ordinance that identifies specific uses and development standards that are different from current zoning. These revisions include prohibitions and greater restrictions on permitted uses, changes to development standards, establishment of design standards or guidelines that address site and building design, different review processes to allow for more public input in the permit process, and new criteria to be used in evaluating the potential for off-site impacts from permitted uses, and adds new information as follows: • Land Use Vision: Properties west of the BNSF railroad right-of-way: A future employment center primarily for water-dependent uses along the harbor with a mix of water-dependent uses and nonwater-dependent industrial uses outside of shoreline jurisdiction, all developed to high quality standards. Water-oriented uses with public access are encouraged. Development will be designed and operated to minimize impacts on adjacent residential areas,the downtown, and Port Gardner Bay. While not a land use requirement, in order to encourage investment and redevelopment in the adjacent community,the aspirational goal for redevelopment of the area is an average density of 10 or more jobs per acre. 22
