general public. Such public access and use shall be ensured by the provision of an easement from PEMC to the City upon design approval by the City for the first PEMC structure on Block 248. Plans for design of the public space shall be submitted to the Planning Director for approval. It is the intent of this recommendation that the public space improvement described here will be installed at the same time any other PEMC use of block 248 area is initiated and the public space shall be available for use upon prompt completion. 2. PEMC shall fund and work with the City and the community to undertake improvements to 13th Street between Rockefeller and North Broadway Avenue. Improvements shall include street tree plantings, sidewalks, landscaping, and pedestrian safety improvements. These may include pedestrian activated crossing lights to be determined by the City Traffic Engineer. The goal is to have better pedestrian access across 13th for students of Whittier Elementary School. The streetscape on 13th Street from Wetmore Ave to Broadway will be improved with a center median including trees and other landscaping. On the north and south sides of 13th Street there shall be curbs, then trees and landscaping and then the sidewalk. These improvements shall be completed as a part of Phase 2A and 2B. In addition,these improvements must be certified by the City of Everett Engineer prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for work completed as a part of Phases 2A and 2B. 3. 14th Street shall be improved over time for pedestrians from Rockefeller Avenue to Broadway Avenue. Said improvements shall include the addition of landscaping and other improvements similar in design to those installed along 13th street as a part of Condition 2 above, however these improvements may or may not include a landscaped roadway median. It would be preferred that PEMC complete these improvements to 14th in the soonest possible time frame in order to create a more unified gateway to the Hospital and Medical Center. The improvements to 14th Street shall be done at the same time as the 13th Street improvements. 4. The proposed Comprehensive Plan amendment,rezone and Master Plan are consistent with the land use polices of the Comprehensive Plan only if the proposed Master Plan is adopted, then followed or amended, according to City land use policy and Zoning Code regulations. 5. The hospital shall not move to the east of Oakes Avenue further into the Donovan District beyond Block 248. Further hospital expansion beyond Block 248 shall utilize the existing hospital properties more intensively, excepting transitional buffer areas, or will extend from Block 248 to the north/northeast. Add a provision to the Comprehensive Plan that states Everett Community College and Providence Medical Center work with the surrounding neighborhood residents on future expansion plans for both facilities, which include the College athletic facilities. The City Planning Department is hereby directed to add policies to the Comprehensive Plan update to implement this direction. 6.
