y c- The Planning and design work on the office building commence so construction can begin simultaneously or earlier than the construction for the new pre-adjudication facility; d. The master plan is to be implemented through the PDO process; e- The design of the pre-adjudication facility is to be sensitive to the surrounding land uses and designed to complement Everett's Gateway Corridor-Pacific Avenue; 8. The City Council finds that the County master plan as proposed through the PDO is consistent with Resolution No. 4913; and 9. The County leadership is in agreement that the Planned Development Overlay (PDO) mechanism is the most appropriate for a large-scale project with a complex mixture of uses and with the long-term effects that the County Campus Redevelopment Initiative represents; and 10. Consequently, the County, on December 13, 2001, filed a Planned Development Overlay application with the City in accordance with Chapter 19.41.160.D of the Everett Municipal Code. The purpose of a Planned Development Overlay zone is to allow for: "development that is innovative or otherwise beneficial to the community but that does not strictly comply with the provisions of the [zone] in which the property is located. This mechanism...is intended to promote high quality developments which benefit the city more than would a development which complies with the specific requirements of this title, while allowing greater flexibility in the design of such developments" -19.29 EMC and; 11. The CRI is proposed to be implemented through the PDO designation and issuance of the necessary permits for construction; and 12. The County has structured a process, under the PDO, wherein this Development Agreement (hereinafter referred to as "Agreement") and associated site plan describe the fundamental location of structures, features and themes to be used in the design of structural features and the site. The Agreement outlines the review procedure to be used as more detailed designs become available and requires that such review take place before issuance of building permits of individual project elements; and 13. This Agreement sets forth the mitigation measures and development standards through which the County intends to develop the Property in an innovative manner, which will be beneficial to the community. The intent is to provide for a high quality development, which will benefit the City more than would a development strictly in accordance with the underlying zoning standards. The public will be benefited by the establishment of development standards together with the implementation of mitigation measures through the planned development overlay process; and 14. This Agreement is entered into pursuant to RCW 36.70B.170, .180 and .190. The intent of the parties is to describe in this Development Agreement the development standards and other provisions that shall apply to, govern and vest the development, use and mitigation of the development of the Property. This Agreement shall be construed in a manner that is consistent with applicable development regulations adopted by the City, except as modified herein; and Development Agreement Page 2 Snohomish County Campus Redevelopment Initiative
