prostitution related activities. I have also reviewed the dispatch and investigative data, dating back to January of 2014. Based upon that information from all of the sources cited for this declaration, it is clear that the entire length of Rucker/Evergreen Way, from the 4000 block south to the city limits, and the entire area on Broadway extending from the 1100 block to 41St Street, remain the two most active areas in the city for Prostitution activity. 7. Prostitution related activity and complaints have continued in the following areas, which were added to the SOAP exclusion area in 2013; I feel it necessary to continue inclusion of the two following geographical areas; 1) North of 4700 Evergreen Way to include Rucker Ave. from the 4000 blk., south to 4700 Evergreen Way. 2) 1600 SE Everett Mall Way to the intersection of Evergreen Way and two blocks each side of Everett Mall Way. 3) The areas two blocks east and west of these corridors should be inclusive in the orders. It is common behavior for prostitution related activity to relocate to nearby locations just off the main corridor where the initial contact was made to perform their acts. 8. In 2013, we expanded the SOAP order to include 8000 Broadway, primarily due to the prostitution related activity associated with a particular barista stand. During the past two years this area has had no reported complaints or arrests for prostitution. I would move that this restriction be removed from S.O.A.P. order restrictions. 9. In reviewing that information it is clear that most arrests for prostitution in the city are along the Broadway Avenue and Evergreen Way corridors and two blocks east and west of those streets. It is appropriate to note that the enforcement efforts of the detectives and supervisors from the Special Investigations section have been focused on those areas, at least partially due to the citizen complaints to 911 reporting prostitution, but also as the result of reports from members of the Everett Police Department, community members and business owners. Time and resources have also been dedicated to the listed areas. Attached to my declaration and incorporated herein by this reference, is a description and map of the areas described above, contained within the city limits of the City of Everett. I am recommending on behalf of the Everett Police Department to the Everett City Council that the following areas to be designated as Stay Out of Areas of Prostitution("SOAP") areas, to-wit: 1. 1100 block to the 4100 block of Broadway Avenue, and two blocks east and west of this area of Broadway Avenue, and 2. Rucker Ave./Evergreen Way extending from the 4000 block south to the city limits, and two blocks east and west of this area of Evergreen Way, and 3. 1600 SE Everett Mall Way to the intersection of Evergreen Way and two blocks each side of Everett Mall Way, and
