32. The City of Everett Fire Department identified applicable fire code standards in a memo. The standards, which are identified in a memo submitted for review, provide that compliance with these standards must continue during all review of construction plans. (exhibit 1, staff report, page 6; exhibit 15b, Fire Department comments) 33. As previously noted, access to the subject property will be from East Marine View Drive. The roads of the business park are owned by the Port of Everett, who is negotiating with the City to dedicate them to the City as public right-of- way. The Port is scheduled to rebuild the roads and curbs, gutter and sidewalk, including the frontage of the subject site to City standards. (exhibit 1, staff report, page 6) 34. The Fire Department reviewed the circulation of the site and determined that the circulation pattern provides adequate access for emergency vehicles. (exhibit 1, staff report, page 7; exhibit 15b, Fire Department comments) 35. An entry drive aisle loops along the common north property line and is the only proposed access to the site. The property to the north and the subject property are designed to provide sufficient parking without relying on the other site. Easements and maintenance provisions for the common facilities must be provided at the time of binding site plan approval. (exhibit 1, staff report, pages 7 and 11; testimony of Mr. Jimerson) 36. Public access parking is proposed on the subject property near the east berm of the site. The Applicant indicated that the parking will be identified for such purposes and that there would be sufficient parking in other sections of the parking lot for the Applicant and/or its successors. (exhibit 5, preliminary binding site plan; testimony of Mr. Oberg; testimony of Mr. Jimerson) 37. A transportation impact analysis (TIA) was prepared for the Riverside Business Park by Transportation Engineering Northwest (TENW) (exhibit 11). According to the TIA, the proposed development will generate a total of 1,455 weekday daily trips, with 235 trips occurring during the weekday AM peak hours and 249 trips occurring during the weekday PM peak hours. It was determined that the level of service (LOS) for most of the intersections in the area are, and will remain, LOS D, which is acceptable to the City of Everett. The only exception is the intersection at East Marine View Drive/SR 529 ramps/Riverside Road, which is anticipated to eventually operate at LOS F by 2023 with, or without, the proposed project. The southbound right-turn from East Marine View Drive to northbound SR 529 causes this intersection to degrade to LOS F under 2023 PM peak hour conditions. However, the City Engineering Department determined that the traffic from the site would not have a significant impact on the overall traffic. (LT
