There were residents within the <br />area, including residents on 75th Street, who indicated that <br />landscaping and a greenbelt should be maintained between <br />adjoining properties and the transmission lines. To adopt the <br />requested amended Finding of the Applic3nt, that the finding be <br />modified to read that residents on 75L•h Street indicated that <br />landscaping or a greenbelt should be maintained between <br />adjoining properties and the transmisrion line:, would be an <br />incomplete declaration of the testimony submitte.i at the public <br />hearinq. <br />Finding #23(14) is a direct quote from the Everett Planning <br />Department's recommendations of the reauest.
