any action,to allow staff additional time to research the number,location,and types of services provided by social service providers in the City. Other Non-Code City Actions Related to Opioid Addiction.In previous Planning Commission workshops on the code amendment,the City's Health and Public Safety Director, Hil Kaman,has described other actions the City has been taking to address issues of addiction, mental health and community impacts. The City continues to communicate and coordinate with Snohomish County,the Snohomish Health District,and others,to increase access to treatment,. coordinate services,prevent overdoses, and limit collateral impacts in the community. Correspondence Received: Letters and emails related to the code amendment are attached in Exhibit 2. Please note the correspondence between the City of Everett and the City of Marysville,Snohomish County,and the Tulalip Tribes,in which Everett asked if those jurisdictions allow for opiate substitution treatment facilities in their land use regulations. Marysville and the County provided written responses indicating that their land use regulations do allow this use. One letter the City received was from the Imagine Children's Museum asking a series of questions about methadone clinics. THS did provide detailed responses to most of those questions in the attached correspondence. Staff Research on Location of Social Services: Following the Planning Commission meeting of June 20,2017,staff conducted research related to the number,location,and type of social service facilities in Everett. This was done,in part,to determine if the City should develop land use policy and regulations for social service uses in the context of the Metro Everett Subarea planning process that are broader in scope than the current code amendment process. City staff have attempted to identify all of the social service uses located in Everett,and to map their service locations to determine if there is a greater concentration of services in the downtown area than other parts of the city. Attached are three maps in Exhibit 3 showing the locations of all social service providers staff could identify in Everett,with a listing of the specific service tied to locations on the map. The map also shows the relative density of businesses throughout the city. The map does clearly indicate that there is a much greater concentration of social service uses in the downtown than in other areas of the city. It also shows that the greatest concentration of businesses in Everett is in the same general downtown area. Police Department Data: At the October 3,2017 Planning Commission meeting, Commissioner Beck asked if the staff report for the November 7 Planning Commission public hearing would include information from the police department regarding whether or not there is any criminal activity around the THS facility in south Everett. Police Chief Dan Templeman has provided a report showing calls for service data in the area, and for four other locations, including north Broadway and in downtown(see attached report in Exhibit 4). The report does not state any conclusions about the incidence of crime in any of the locations,and includes the following statements: Staff Report - Page 2
