l/ 1 Silver Lake Elementary School is an existing school in an established neighborhood and has been in the community since 1937. Construction of the proposed project would result in temporary, localized increases in pollutant emissions and v,jutd be of a short-term and relatively minor nature. No significant air quality impacts would be expected. The increase in noise levels during construction would be temporary and between designated hours as allowed by City code. Construction lighting, if needed, would be temporary during construction. 9. Consistency with the goals and policies of the Everett General Plan for the area and land use designation in which the property is located. i Silver Lake Elementary School is an existing use in the neighborhood, which is zoned R2 Single-family Medium -Density Residential. C-I (General Commercial) zoning is located across the Bothell Everett Highway to the west of the site. The surrounding uses, which are residential and commercial across the Bothell Everett Highway, are compatible with the school use of the property. The proposal is consistent with the following City of Everett Comprehensive Plan Land Use Policies: LU Objective 2.7 Reinforce, maintain and enhance the desirable qualities of Everett's neighborhoods. The proposed portable placement at Silver Lake Elementary is the a result of community meetings and the School Board's decision to direct increased enrollment closer to where students live at a school facility and site that is able to accommodate increased enrollment. LU 2.2.3 Require new commercial development to be pedestrian friendly and compatible with public transportation service. Silver Lake Elementary School is an existing use in the neighborhood. Sidewalks and street improvements are already in place. The site is currently served by Everett Transit. The District provides bus services to students within the service area. LU 2.2.4 Adopt standards to promote ivell designed commercial developments and proper maintenance of commercial properties to improve and reinforce the quality and character of the commercial district and sounding neighborhoods. While the use is commercial in nature, the code recognizes school uses as appropriate in residential neighborhoods and the school is sited adjacent to a commercial -none across the Bothell Everett Highway. The school would be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood and would not impact the existing quality and character of the neighborhood. The proposed portables will be placed next to existing portables.
