transit is not a significant criterion with this project. (Exhibit 1, Landles i <br />testimony) <br />26. The proposed use has been reviewed by the Everett Planning <br />Department and has boen found to be consistent with the development <br />and use standards as set forth in the Everett Zoning Code. The <br />proposal is consistent with the criteria of EMC 19.41.150.C&D and the <br />land use standards for the C-2, Heavy Commercial and Light Industrial <br />zoning designation. (Exhibit 1, Landles testimony) <br />27. A spokesman for Crown Distributing Company, Inc. (Crown) submitted <br />opposition testimony regarding the application for the Special Property <br />Use Permit. Crown, a distributor of wholesale beverages that <br />specializes in the distribution of Anheuser Busch products, is located <br />across a street from the proposed facility. According to Crown, its <br />ventilation, heating and cooling systems are subject to contaminants that <br />diminish the effectiveness and operation of the systems, and the <br />proposed facility could create these contaminates and threaten Crown's <br />operation.

Counsel <br />fir Crown contended that the proposed facility is a moderate risk waste <br />facility and not a minkmom risk waste facility and, therefore, not a <br />permitted use in the C-2 zone. <br />According to Crown, the wastes to be generated on -site would be those <br />from substances identified as hazardous household substances and <br />would be moderate risk wastes. This definition would preclude them <br />from being categorized as minimum risk wastes and, therefore, would <br />not be an allowed use in the C-2 zone.
