16. The City Council approved the PDO rezone based on findings that: a. The Port of Everett North Marina Redevelopment Project is consistent with and would implement the goals and policies of the Everett Comprehensive Plan. b. The NMRP vision is compatible with Design Standards and Design Guidelines set forth in this agreement. The policies of the Comprehensive Plan pertaining to compatibility of land uses, shoreline redevelopment, and urban design along the central harborfront were considered in the design of the project. c. The proposed rezone bears a substantial relation to public health, safety or welfare; and promotes the best long-term interests of the Everett community. d. The design of the new 12th Street marina, the reconfiguration of the existing marina, boat repair facilities, new buildings and roadways, public walkways and urban plazas, will be compatible with the surrounding neighborhoods and harborfront areas. e. The proposal, as developed over time, will meet or exceed the performance-based intent of the City's development standards in order to provide an exceptional civic and redeveloped shoreline environment. f. The elements of the project will respond to and balance the needs of Everett residents and visitors, recreational boat owners, marine service businesses, the Port of Everett, the City of Everett and other public agencies. g. The City and Port SEPA Responsible Officials determined that the Port North Marina Redevelopment Project is an appropriate subject of Phased Environmental Review. h. The City of Everett assumed lead agency status for the Phase 1 SEPA review related to the amendments to the City's Comprehensive Plan, Zoning, and Shoreline Master Program necessary for the NMRP. i. The City's Responsible Official issued a Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance, the requirements of which have been incorporated into this Agreement. These conditions, along with the additional conditions in this Agreement are sufficient to mitigate adverse impacts upon existing or anticipated land uses in the immediate vicinity of the subject property that could result from the revisions to the Comprehensive Plan, Zoning and Shoreline Master Program. j. Future SEPA reviews will be required to address the impacts of specific development activities on the Property. j. The anticipated development schedule intends that all elements are to be completed by 2023. However, due to the different construction schedules and time frames for various aspects of each of the NMRP project components (public esplanade, new and reconfigured marinas, 13th Street improvements, Craftsmen District, Wharf's Edge District, West End District, Captain's Walk District and Gateway District), the components will proceed forward at different construction start times and are to be completed at different times. k. The Everett City Council approved the PDO rezone subject to certain conditions as described in this Agreement; S:\BLarsen\rezones\re2po56devagmt05prefinal.DOC 3
