proposed and approved developments in the area (Hanabrook, Ridgewood Terrace, Seaway Center, Glenwood Avenue Apartments, etc. ) . The proposed Merrill Creek development would take all access from Merrill Creek Parkway to the south via three driveways. Access to the north is not feasible since the Plats of Edgemoor Heights and Harbor Ridge abut the property to the north and those plats did not provide for access connections to the Merrill Creek property. The City specifically limited the number of lots in the Plat of Harbor Ridge and cut off access to the north for the Merrill Creek property due to traffic safety concerns on Harbor Lane. Each of the parcels would have frontage on Merrill Creek Parkway, except for Phase 4. A publicly dedicated road will be required to Phase 4 in compliance with the City's Subdivision Ordinance. Merrill Creek Parkway connects Glenwood Avenue with Seaway Boulevard as well as Hardeson Road. Regional access to the site is provided by a combination of freeways and arterials. These include Mukilteo Boulevard - a minor arterial to the north; SR-526 - a regional expressway to the south; US 99/Evergreen Way - a principal arterial on the east; and SR-525/Mukilteo Speedway - a principal arterial on the west. Other minor and collector arterials which serve traffic from the site include Glenwood Avenue, Madison Street, Seaway Boulevard, 20th Ave. West, Hardeson Road, and Beverly Lane. Based on a daily trip generation rate of 6.6 vehicle trips per dwelling unit, the traffic study stated that approximately 8,500 daily vehicle trips would be generated by the proposal at full buildout (this figure is based on a project consisting of 1, 392 units, so actual trip generation from the recommended 1 ,070 unit project would likely be lower) . Approximately 810 of these trips would occur during 19
