EVERETT 2044 <br />COMPREHENSIVE PLAN <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />6/17/2025 <br />COMPREHENSIVE PLAN <br />DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT ELEMENT <br /> Page 51 <br />DD-72 Survey and inventory historic resources as part of future sub-area or neighborhood planning <br />projects, with a focus on areas of anticipated growth and change. <br />DD-73 Expand historic preservation inventories, regulations, and programs to encourage historic <br />preservation in areas that are underrepresented by current historic preservation efforts. <br />DD-74 Work with Everett’s diverse communities and partner agencies to identify, raise awareness and <br />protect places of historic and cultural significance to these communities. <br />DD-75 Partner with the Tulalip Tribes to recognize sites of significance. <br />Signs <br />DD-76 Ensure that signs are compatible with their surroundings. Signs should provide information and <br />make a positive contribution to the character of the community. <br />DD-77 Signs should effectively contribute to the aesthetics of the development and minimize negative <br />impacts on adjacent uses and all modes of transportation. <br />DD-78 Promote compatibility of signs with pedestrian-oriented development in all areas, and <br />particularly in designated mixed-use centers and residential areas. <br />DD-79 Do not permit new billboards in the city and encourage removal of existing billboards. <br />Off-Site Impacts <br />DD-80 Minimize the impacts of auto‐oriented uses, vehicle areas, drive‐through areas, signage, and <br />exterior display and storage areas on adjacent residential areas. <br />DD-81 Protect non‐industrial zoned parcels from the adverse impacts of activities on industrial zoned <br />parcels. <br />DD-82 Buffer between designated Manufacturing/Industrial Centers and adjacent residential or <br />mixed-use areas to protect both the viability of long‐term industrial operations and the <br />livability of adjacent areas. <br />DD-83 Encourage building and landscape design and land use patterns that limit and/or mitigate <br />negative air quality and noise impacts to building users and residents, particularly in areas near <br />freeways, high traffic streets, and other sources of air pollution. <br />5-YEAR DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIONS  <br />Action DD-1: Seek Certified Local Government Grants for historic preservation projects <br />
