� cxccu•r�vc suMn�1ARY � <br /> � Shockey/I3rent. Inc. conducted a wedand delineation and Punctional analysis of the Kaneris <br /> 1 property located at f 1419 - 19th Avcnue SG, in Gvere[t, Washington. on September 199�. <br /> This 1=ina1 Wetland Mitigation Plan is subsequent to the submitted Shockey/Brent, Inc. <br /> Conceprr�cr! Mitign�ion Plan. The project applicant proposcs �evelopment of approximately <br /> � 30,000 syuare feet of retail!office space on approximately 103,000 syuare feet of land locatcd <br /> in Section 29, To�anship 28 North, Range 5 �ast, W.M., in Snohomish Counry (see Figr�re 1 <br /> -- Pm�cel Map). Approximately 6,500 square fee[ (Q15 acres) of Category 3, emergcnt and <br /> � scrub shrub wetlands associated with 6,500 squarc feet of an isolated open water pond were <br /> identified and dclineated on the site. <br /> � No direct wedand impacts will occur as a result of this project. However, approximately <br /> 750 syuare feet of vegctated Category 3 wetland buffcr will be removed for the r,onswction <br /> � of Building C. At an effective ratio of 1.5:1 for Category 3 wetland buffer ircpacts, a total <br /> mitigated area of 1,125 square feet would be required by City code. A request was made to <br /> the Ciry of Everett for allowance of a standard wetland buffer width reduction from 50 fcet <br /> � to 25 feet under Section 37.100 (D) of the County Critical Areas Regulations. Rationale for <br /> thc request is the high level of historical human disturbance to the wetland buffer. <br /> Compensation for both the standard wetland buffer width reduction and the Building C buffer <br /> � impacts, will total approximately 5,450 square feet of Category 3 buffer enhancement. <br /> The wedands are bordered to the west by SR-�37 (which is scheduled for widening in 1999), <br /> Ia house and driveway to the north (to be removed), and a commercial building and parking <br /> lot to the south. The eastern edge is a multi-layered vzgetated area that supports birdlife, <br /> small mamroals and amphibians. Buffer enhancement to the previously disturbed areas of the <br /> pond wi:l greatly enhance the overall diversiry of habitats associared with the site. For a <br /> � detailed description of the delineation and functional analysis see Shockey/Brent, Inc., <br /> 11�etlands Analysis, 11419 - 19th Avenue SE, September 1995. <br /> 'I'he primary objectives of the wedand evaluation were: <br /> � i) The identification of wedands under the jurisdiction of the U.S. A�my Corps of <br /> Gn,ineers (COE); <br /> 2) 1'he dclineation and classification of all wedands subject to land use review and <br /> re�ulation by Uie Ciry of Everett undcr ti�eir Environmentally Sensitive Areas <br /> Ordinance (SAO); and <br /> 3) An analysis of potcntial benefits derived from the proposed buffer enhancement. <br /> 1'he I�inal D4itigation Piain proposes conditions of approval, specific details :or excavation, <br /> �rainage, and vegetation, including a list of replacement species. Also inclucied are specifics <br /> . � <br /> reea�din� construction management, performance standards, and a lo ' � <br /> ne term monitorm� <br /> program. <br /> i u/rs <br /> I�nnciis Properlv -- Finaf R'ef/rntd ilfilign(iat Plan Page I <br /> Prepnrcd b� �IIOC1�1�:1'IISRI;Y'I', iuc. ieK:wi�.��.d,�.� <br /> . 1 <br />
