the following conclusions of law based upon its review
of the public testimony, the staff reports, and the
recommendations of the Planning Commission that:

Comprehensive Plan which designates the
subject tract as low density residential.
B. The proposed rezone is consistent with the
purposes of the zoning ordinance as set forth
in Chapter 16.10 of the Edmonds Community
Development Code.
C. The proposed rezone is in harmony with the
existing land use and zoning of surrounding
and nearby property; all surrounding property
is zoned and in use as single family
residential. The properties to the south,
west and east are all zoned as RS-8 and in
use as such.
D. No significant changes have occurred in the
surrounding neighborhood.
E. Council specifically finds that the property
is economically and physically suited for
RS-8 zoning and residential use; and
F. Council further finds that the relative gain
to the public health, safety and welfare
justifies the rezone, and there is no
potential decrease in value threatened to the
property of any person in the area of the
rezone.
