Tukwilla, Wa 98188 Dear Mr. Bloss: F 'L,� Your project has been in the City of Everett project review process for some time. One of the key issues which delayed completion of the review was the traffic impacts generated by your proposal. Your project qenerates additional traffic into the transportation facility which would operate at an unacceptable Level of Service (LOS E or F). The City�s Interim Traffic liitiqation Ordinance (ITMO) that was in effect at the time of your project submittial required that the City Council approve a Local Transportation Plan (LTP) for such projects prior to issuance of any permits allowiny the project to proceed. The City Counc_1 has recently revised ITMO. The revision eliminated the need to prepare an LTP and requires the analysis of Traffic Demand Management (TDM) improvements that can be implemented to mitiqate impacts when traffic would be qenerated into an L05 E or F area. Since your project was submitted under the old ITIiO ordinance, you would be vested under those provisions, but would be required to proceed with formation of an LTP. The revised ordinance would allow the project review to be completed once TDM measures, which would reasonably mitiqate traffic impacts, have been identified. The revised ITMO ordinance appears to provide a more expeditious review process than the old ordinance. To obtain deteiled information reqarding specific traffic analysis and requira�ents that would be applied under the revised ITMO ordinance, plesae contact Ren Nowe in the Public Works Department at 259-8810.
