(iii) the redevelopment includes elements that address potential impacts on adjacent residential uses. WHEREAS, the City Council concludes: 1. The existing Safeway store provides a necessary service to the community; 2. The existing Safeway store is much smaller than grocery stores that have been constructed in the last 20 to 30 years in Everett; 3. The redevelopment proposed by the applicant provides much improved architecture, landscaping,pedestrian access, and aesthetic appearance on the gateway corridors of Rucker Avenue and 41St Street. 4. The redevelopment includes design elements that adequately address potential impacts on adjacent residential uses, specifically visual,noise and traffic impacts, and is therefore consistent with the policies of the Land Use Element. 5. The requested amendment to the land use map and rezone provides for the public health, safety and welfare. This is accomplished by the use of the Resolution of Intent to Rezone process which will ensure that the area to be rezoned is used for expansion of the existing grocery store, and not for piecemeal or fragmented strip commercial use; 6. The requested amendment to the land use map and rezone promotes the best long term interests of the Everett community. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY OF EVERETT DOES ORDAIN: Section 1.
