4. The City Council of Everett recognizes, respects and wishes to support the elected public officials of the Port of Everett Commission (the Commissioners) in their visionary call for the conversion of the North Marina Property to more desirable and popular(according to public input) public access-friendly uses including new walkway links, expanded shoreline access and more commercial enterprise proposed by the Port in this area. 5. In order for the City Council to respond to and support the preceding findings the Shoreline Master Program shall be amended in the areas listed below. It must be made clear however that the changes to policy and regulatory provisions of the SMP made herein are to be made for and on the subject area only and shall affect no other part or portion of the shoreline jurisdiction area. 6. The subject areas of the changes made herein are as follows: a. The SMP Vision Statement(page 4-7 - Section 4.4 Urban Maritime) calls for this area to be "working waterfront." This vision statement will be amended to allow a wider range of uses while still allowing marina support activities to continue to thrive. b. The Management Policies on page 4-8, policy # 1 of the SMP says, "this area should be used for maritime uses and services, and encourage a mix of compatible water- dependent and associated water-related industrial and recreational uses and water-oriented commercial uses." This section will be modified to add non-water related and non-water dependent uses to be allowed inside the SMP jurisdictional area in the subject area. c. The Shoreline Use Table 5.1 on page 5-2 of the SMP says "non-water oriented uses" are not allowed, as denoted by the "X" under the "Maritime zone." This regulation will be amended to allow such uses in the subject area. 7. It is not anticipated or expected that the Port will expand the proposal beyond those properties identified in this proposal. 8.
