with EMC 19.42.110. Substantial weight shall be given to the decision of the Planning Director in considering any appeal. Section 3. Section 15.020 of Ordinance#1671-89, as amended by Section 2 of Ordinance#1864-92, (EMC 19.15.020), which reads: 15.020 Calculatio i of permitted density. In determining the density of a multiple- family development,the lot area is divided by the number of square feet this chapter requires per dwelling unit. When this computation results in a fraction,the number is rounded down to the next whole number. For lots which contain environmentally sensitive areas, see Section 19.37 of this title for the method used to determine the permitted number of dwelling units. The land area dedicated for public transit bus pullouts or passenger shelters shall be included in the area of the lot from which the land was dedicated for purposes of calculating permitted number of dwelling units in multiple- family developments. is hereby amended to read: 15.020 Calculation of permitted number of dwelling units. The intent of this section is to implement the Everett Comprehensive Plan by regulating the permitted density of multiple family housing in various zone districts. A. Density Standards. The maximum number of multiple family dwelling units permitted in each zone shall be as provided by the density standard listed in Table#15-1. The total lot area is divided by the density standard indicated below to determine the permitted maximum number of dwellings on the lot. See Section 37.190.0 for lots with environmentally sensitive areas. Compliance with other requirements of this Title or other City development standards, such as Environmentally Sensitive Area regulations or surface water requirements, may have the effect of reducing the total number of dwellings that can be built on a site. Achievable density may also be limited by site size, configuration and project design. A project applicant may not be able to achieve the full number of dwelling units that is permitted by the density standards of this Section. TABLE#15-1, PERMITTED MULTIPLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DENSITY 1. R-1(A)Zone = 1 dwelling unit per 3,600 square feet (up to 12 DU's per acre) 2. R-2(A)Zone = I dwelling unit per 2,900 square feet (up to 15 DU's per acre) 3. R-3(L)Zone = 1 dwelling unit per 2,200 square feet (up to 20 DU's per acre) 4. R-3 Zone = 1 dwelling unit per 1,500 square feet (up to 29 DU's per acre) 5. R-4 Zone = 1 dwelling unit per 750 square feet (up to 58 DU's per acre) 6. R-5 Zone = no maximum density requirement 7. B-1 Zone = 1 dwelling unit per 2,200 square feet (1) (up to 20 DU's per acre) 8. B-2 Zone = 1 dwelling unit per 750 square feet (2) (3) (up to 58 DU's per acre) 9. B-2(B)Zone = 1 dwelling unit per 1,500 square feet (up to 29 DU's per acre) 10. B-3 Zone = no maximum density requirement 11. C-1, C-1R Zones = 1 dwelling unit per 750 square feet(3) (up to 58 DU's per acre) 7
