AND, WHEREAS, the City of Everett Planning Commission made the <br /> following findings and conclusions on the Comprehensive Plan Change: <br /> Findings and Conclusions: <br /> Findings: The 1967 Plan Map does not address this area as it was in ' <br /> unincorporated Snohomish County at the time the Plan was developed. <br /> The 1972 Plan update designates this area for Special Residential development. <br /> Snohomish County adopted the North Creek Area Comprehensive Plan in 1977 with <br /> this Plan designating the site Suburban 1-4 du/acre. <br /> Conclusion: Due to increasing traffic volumes on 19th Avenue S.E. , the <br /> contiguous non-residential development (gas station and church), and the <br /> existence of sanitary sewer service to this property, the residential <br /> designations applied to this property are no longer appropriate. The <br /> Business/Light Commercial designation applied to the properties on the west <br /> side of 19th Avenue should be extended to the subject property (see Exhibit 4). <br /> NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RECOMMENDED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION TO THE <br /> EVERETT CITY COUNCIL that the Comprehensive Plan Change from Special <br /> Residential to Business/Light Commercial BE APPROVED. <br /> AND, WHEREAS, the City of Everett Planning Commission made the <br /> following findings and conclusions on the REZONE. <br /> Findings and Conclusions: <br /> 1. Zoning: <br /> Finding: The subject property has frontage on 19th Avenue S.E. , a <br /> major arterial street. Current traffic volumes on 19th Avenue are <br /> 11,000 trips per day (TPD) with volumes of 25,600 TPD projected for <br /> 1990. <br /> Conclusion: The subject property is not suited to residential <br /> development. <br /> 2. Perimeter Treatment: <br /> Finding: The property is surrounded on the north and east sides by <br /> residential development. <br /> Conclusion: The single family property to the north and east should <br /> be shielded from the more intensive activity proposed on the subject <br /> property through the provision of a 10 foot wide landscaped area on the <br /> north and east edges of the property. <br /> 3. Land Use: <br /> Finding: The proposed one story office building placed on the <br /> southern edge of the subject property will have minimal impact on <br /> adjacent uses. <br /> Conclusion: Site development should be as depicted on the attached <br /> site plan (See Exhibit #2) to minimize the impact on adjacent land uses. <br /> -2- <br />
