Planning Commission for the June 20, 1989 Public Hearing, <br /> pages 5 - 16; the Draft EIS, pages 97 - 109; the Final EIS, <br /> pages 44 - 46, 52 - 54; and the Staff Report to Planning <br /> Commission for the July 18 , 1989 Public Hearing, pages 5 - 7. <br /> This analysis is incorporated herein by reference. These <br /> policies, along with the impacts identified in the EIS and the <br /> City's SEPA policies, are the basis of the conditions listed <br /> in the Concomitant Agreement. <br /> Planning Commission considered extensive testimony on a <br /> policy sometimes referred to as the "Mixed Use" policy. This <br /> policy states, <br /> Because the housing market is complex and changing <br /> over time and some people desire to live in low <br /> scale multiple family housing and because these <br /> types of housing can be made compatible with more <br /> intensive uses, areas designated for low density <br /> multiple family residential uses should allow single <br /> family attached, twin house, duplex, townhouse, <br /> house, and a limited amount of low-rise multiple <br /> family residential uses at 10 to 15 dwelling units <br /> per gross acre. <br /> The Merrill Creek master site plan approved by Planning <br /> Commission includes a mix of single family, townhouse, and <br /> multiple family units and is in conformance with the policy. <br /> Planning Commission and City Council also considered <br /> extensive testimony concerning the density of the project. <br /> One of the policies in the General Plan states, <br /> Because it is the purpose of the General Plan Land <br /> Use Map to provide a general guide for establishing <br /> zoning throughout the City and the purpose of the <br /> zoning map is to provide detailed project level <br /> regulation, all density designations on the General <br /> Plan land use map should be in dwelling units per <br /> 10 <br />
