Goals,Objectives, and Policies <br /> 4.1.3.2 Land Use Policies <br /> 1. Continue to permit commercial agricultural activities and other compatible land uses <br /> as specified in the Everett zoning code. <br /> 2. Promote agricultural activities that benefit wildlife, such as "barley for birds." <br /> 3. Allow for low density residential uses in the Rural Flood Fringe District along <br /> Larimer Road and in areas outside the 100-Year floodplain. <br /> 4. Promote passive recreation that complements habitat restoration areas. <br /> 5. Ensure transportation and utility systems can continue and be improved. <br /> 6. Ensure access to utilities and agricultural fields. <br /> 4.1.3.3 Public Access and Recreation Policies <br /> 1. Allow for a variety of passive recreation opportunities including trails, fields for <br /> informal recreation and picnicking, and associated support facilities such as parking <br /> and restrooms. <br /> 2. Require public recreation and restoration proposals to dedicate and improve public <br /> access pathways. <br /> 3. Create an interconnected loop trail system along habitat restoration areas. Design <br /> trails to fit the site context and purpose. For example, some trails may be for <br /> pedestrians and have soft surfaces. Dikes and areas that would support boardwalk <br /> trail segments may also be used for accessing properties and utilities, and could be <br /> wider to accommodate heavy vehicles. <br /> 4. Add multi-use trails along Lenora Street/Lowell-Snohomish River Road that can <br /> connect into a larger, regional network. <br /> 5. Provide visual access into restored and preserved habitat through carefully placed <br /> viewpoints within the trail system. <br /> 6. Design recreation in consideration of long-term maintenance, emergency access, and <br /> privacy of adjacent properties. <br /> 4.1.3.4 Citizen Involvement and Property Owner Coordination Policies <br /> 1. Seek willing property owners to participate in habitat restoration opportunities. <br /> 2. Encourage land donations. Where purchase of property is negotiated, pay fair market <br /> value for private properties included in habitat restoration. <br /> Draft Subarea Plan June 2009 <br /> Everett Marshland 54 070346-01 <br />
