b. Facade: The structures facade should be treated in a manner to blend this structure with adjacent uses. C. Lighting: Lighting should be designed in a manner that will not project light or glare on to any adjacent residential uses. d. Noise: There will be some short term increase in levels of noise during construction. Both during construction and after completion of the Jail, City Noise Ordinance requirements must be adhered to. e. Land Use: The proposed project will displace the State Employment I Security building, one business and six single family homes. One additional structure currently used by the Snohomish County Fire Marshall, will be demolished as well. f. Traffic: There will lie a substantial amount of traffic generated by the Jail use, with approximately 120 people employed in a 24 hour period at this facility. There will also be law enforcement traffic to and from the facility and visitor traffic. The Work Release facility is not expected to generate a substantial amoun' of traffic as the majority of the residents will not have cars and there will be six employees at the facility in a 24 hour period. This traffic impact may be less than the traffic generated by the Employment Security building. g. Pedestrian Access: There should be sidewalks provided from all parking lots for the Jail structure providing access to the main entrance. These sidewalks should meet all the requirements of the Public Works Department. h. Parking Lot R e.iesign: The parking lot located at the intersection of Pacific and Oakes should be redesigned to eliminate the :xisting dead-end configuration. This redesign could take the form of a ramp located adjacent to the south property line connecting the two levels of parking. The lot located adjacent to the main entrance should be redesigned to provide for access to Wall Street. This will eliminate another dead-end parking lot. The east -west alley should be vacated to minimize traffic impact from this facility on both the Senior Center and Housing facility located adjacent to Lombard Avenue. 2. Environmental Impact: a. Earth: The site will require general regrading prior to construction. The site is relatively steep sloped (approximately 15%) and strict compliance with the City's Drainage Ordinance should prevent serious erosion problems. b. Air Quality: There will be temporary degradation of air quality during construction. C. Water: Storm water flow and quality will be controlled per th requirements of the City's Drainage Ordinance. d. Housing: Six existing homes will be demolished as part of the Jail site preparation. e. Energy: The facility will carry an estimated electrical demand of 1,000 kilowatts per year and will consume additional energy for heating, ventilation and air conditioning. f. Aesthetics: Due to the height of the proposed Jail structure, it will creatc a -wall along Lombard Avenue. This massive structure should be screened by installing a suhstantial amount of vegetation along, thr Lombard Avenue and Wall Street frontages. The facade of the structure should be treated in a manner to provide some visual relief. This could also be accomplished by indenting the Lombard facade to break the solid wall effect. -2-
