B. Public Health, Safety, and General Welfare - Evaluation of the proposed subdivision to determine whether the public health, safety, and general welfare has been served. Finding: The public health, safety, and general welfare are addressed through the conditions of approval stated in this report. Conclusion: The public health, safety, and general welfare have been served. C. Comprehensive Plan - Evaluation of all elements of the Comprehensive Plan and its consistency with the proposed short subdivision. Finding: The Everett General Plan designates this area as 4.4, Mixed Use Commercial/Multiple Family and 1.6, Multiple Family Residential. Conclusion: The proposed short subdivision is consistent with the Everett General Plan. D. Existing Zoning - Evaluation of existing zoning and its compliance with the proposed short subdivision and Section 18.24 of the Subdivision Code. Finding: The site is comprised of two zoning designations, C-1 General Commercial and R-3 Multiple Residential. The minimum lot area required in each of these zoning areas is 5,000 square feet with a minimum lot width of 50 feet. The City's Subdivision Code requires a minimum lot depth of 80 feet. Proposed lot 1 is zoned C-1 and developed with a recreational bowling facility. Currency there are 146 parking spaces provided for she bowling facility which partially encroaches onto proposed lot 2 of the short plat. A redesign with new parking areas for a total of 163 stalls will be provided entirely on lot 1 as part of this proposal. This will remove all parking area encroachments on proposed lot 2. The new parking area for lot 1 will be landscaped in accordance with the current Zoning Code requirements. As shown on the proposed parking lot site plan a 10' landscape strip will be provided along the 4th Avenue frontage and also the north and west property lines landscaped to Type III Standards. A 5' strip will be provided along the south property line also landscaped to Type III Standards. Landscaping shall be provided for the interior parking lot area based upon the number of stalls within the parking lot. The minimum requirement for 165 stalls is 5,705 square feet of landscaping. Proposed lot 2 is zoned C-1 and developed with an auto sales lot. This lot has frontage on Evergreen Way which is an arterial street and will provide a landscape strip a minimum of 10' wide planted to Type III Standards. Proposed lot 3 is an undeveloped site that is split by C-1 General Commercial and R-3 Multiple Residential Zoning. While this may create some challenges for development of the site it does not violate any code requirements and is the applicant's preference. The zoning boundary as shown on the preliminary short plat map is incorrect and need not be shown on the final. Conclusion: As proposed, each lot meets the minimum lot area, width and depth requirements of the City s Zoning and Subdivision Codes.
