15 <br />along Hard es n Road, from Casino Road to the South City <br />limits. It is expected this will ultimately be improved <br />as a secondary arterial. A Local Improvement District <br />is currently scheduled to receive its final reading, proposing <br />street widening to initially provide two traffic lanes <br />with parking on both sides (44' wide improvement), later <br />to be converted to two traffic lanes, one left turn lane <br />and one -side parking, as volumes increase. This project's <br />share of th- L.I.D. is presently calculated at $148,526, <br />based on site area. <br />In order to mitigate traffic pressures »t the Casino Road/ <br />Hardeson Road intersection, project sponsors have coordi- <br />nated the design with the property owners of two parcels <br />to the east, also planning on devEluping multifamily <br />residences. An internal, dedicated public road system <br />will connect through these three sites to Hardeson and <br />Casino Roads. This will provide a means of reducing <br />traffic from these sites (probably 574 units) through <br />the two most critical intersections on Casino Road, with <br />Hardeson Road and Evergreen Way. (See road location, <br />Figures 2 and 3) Connections will be made with Hardeson <br />Road approximately 425 feet south of Casino, and with <br />Casino Road approximately 650 feet east of Hardeson. <br />Transit <br />It should be noted also that increased multifamily resi- <br />dential development in the area may tend to increase <br />transit use, making more feasible the East-West services <br />on Casino Road, recently proposed by the Everett Transit <br />Authority. The Southwest Everett Planning Study, Chapter <br />7, page 93 notes that multifamily residents use transit <br />and convenience shopping facilities more than single <br />family residents. <br />
