(exhibit 1) <br /> 6. In order for a Site Specific Rezone to occur within the City of Everett, the <br /> Evaluation Criteria, as set forth in Everett Municipal Code (EMC) 19.41.160.D, <br /> must be satisfied. Those criteria include: <br /> 1 . The proposed rezone is consistent with the Everett Comprehensive Plan. <br /> 2. The proposed amendment bears a substantial relation to public health, <br /> safety, or welfare; and promotes the best long-term interest of the Everett <br /> community. <br /> 3. The proposed rezone mitigates any adverse impact(s) upon existing or <br /> anticipated land uses in the immediate vicinity of the subject property. <br /> 7. The subject property has a Comprehensive Plan designation of 4.4, Mixed-Use <br /> Commercial - Multiple-Family. This designation supports a mixture of <br /> commercial and residential uses.

No changes to the existing Comprehensive Plan designation are required to <br /> accommodate the proposed rezone. With the elimination of the concomitant <br /> agreement, the new zoning designation would be consistent with the definition of <br /> Mixed-Use Commercial. (Tyler testimony) <br /> 9. The C-1 designation, as it exists within the City of Everett, supports a full range <br /> of business, commercial, and residential uses. If developed with C-1 standards, <br /> the site would be redeveloped consistent with similar zoned properties. (Tyler <br /> testimony) <br /> 10. The elimination of the concomitant agreement to the original rezone would <br /> remove development and use restrictions that were in place prior to the existing <br /> code. The new designation would eliminate the nonconformity relating to parking <br /> on-site and would bring the subject property more in compliance with the existing <br /> Zoning Code. (Tyler testimony) <br /> 11. In the general area of the subject property, there is a significant development <br /> pattern.
