The Public Workshop will be held on Tuesday, October 19, 2004, beginning at 6:30 p.m. in the Planning Commission Hearing Room, located on the 8`t' Floor of the Wall Street Building, 2930 Wetmore Avenue. The public is welcome to attend and provide comments to the Planning Commission. No final decision will be made at the Public Workshop. The Everett City Council has adopted a moratorium on the establishment of any new adult retail establishment within the city in order to allow the Planning Commission and Council to determine if new regulations regarding the location of adult retail establishments should be enacted. The City's zoning regulations currently allow adult retail businesses to locate anywhere retail uses are allowed. The City Council has asked the Planning Commission to determine if additional restrictions are needed to protect sensitive land uses, including such uses as residential areas, schools, churches, daycare centers, parks, and other uses from the adverse impacts of adult retail businesses. The purpose of this workshop is to provide information that the Planning Commission requested at its September 7, 2004 workshop on this subject.
