f. Landscaping would be required per Section 35 of the Everett Zoning Code. A landscape plan must be submitted and approved prior to issuance of building permits (see Use Permit y5-90, condition N4). g. The proposed use is an office, which is not commonly associated with nuisance irritants, such as noise, smoke, etc. Other permitted uses within the C-2 zone generate far greater nuisance irritants. h. The proposed use would contribute toward diversity in land uses and would be of slightly greater intensity than the existing single-family residence; therefore, the conversion would be consistent with the goals and policies of the Everett General Plan, which does not encourage lower intensity uses (i.e., single-family dwellings) in commercial land use districts. i. The proposed use, as permitted by building code provisions, Use Permit N5-90, and this decision would satisfy the requirements of the Everett Zoning Code and other applicable ordinances and regulations. DECISION: The Planning Director has made a determination to allow the proposed conversion of a single-family residence to an office at 3223 Pine Street. The proposal is consistent with the above evaluation criteria and with the purpose and intent of the C-2 zoning district. Right to Appeal: The applicant or an owner of property located within 300 feet of the subject property may appeal the Planning Director's determination as to whether the proposed use should be a permitted use within the applicable zone district. Any such appeal must be filed within ten (10) calendar days of the date specified below. Appeal forms are available from the Planning Department and must be submitted along with the required filing fee.
