The purpose for the requested Comprehensive Plan land use map amendment is to ensure <br /> consistency between the Comprehensive Plan map and the zoning map. <br /> 2. To achieve the desired consistency between the two noted maps, the City needs to amend the <br /> Comprehensive Plan map designation from 4.1 (Neighborhood Business)to 4.2 (Community <br /> Business), Exhibit A. <br /> 3. The subject commercial area is a viable use that has been at this location for over 40 years <br /> and is a well established and an important part of the local area and greater community. <br /> 4. The change made herein will have no adverse affects on the surrounding area, because zoning <br /> regulations are not being changed. <br /> 5. City representatives met with the affected neighborhood on January 4, 2012, to present and <br /> discuss this action. <br /> 6. On March 6, 2012, Planning Commission passed Resolution 12-06,proposing adoption of the <br /> action by City Council. <br /> 7. The public health safety and welfare would be provided for by the proposal under existing <br /> development regulations of the City. <br /> 8. The proposed amendment to the land use map and rezone promotes the best long term interest <br /> of the Everett Community. <br /> 9. Any conclusion below that may be construed as a finding is included here as such by this <br /> reference. <br /> WHEREAS CITY COUNCIL CONCLUDES: <br /> 1. Any finding above that may be construed as a conclusion is included here as such by this <br /> reference. <br /> 2. The requested action is supported by, or consistent with,the Comprehensive Plan because it <br /> amends the Comprehensive Plan map designation for the subject area to a designation that is <br /> consistent with current zoning. (finding 1) <br /> 3. Circumstances related to the subject property and the area in which it is located have not <br /> changed. However,this action is undertaken to make the map designation enacted herein, and <br /> current zone, consistent with one another, thus "changing circumstances" is not a factor in this <br /> decision. (finding 3) <br /> 4. There are no erroneous assumptions or new information regarding this action known at the <br /> time this action was taken. (findings 3, 6, 7, and 9) <br /> - 2 - <br />
