EXHIBIT "A"
Findings for Planning Commission File No. CP-3-67
1. The subject street is inadequate in right-of-way area to serve its
designated use of community arterial. It provides an important link
in the thoroughfare system and carries a significant amount of north -
south vehicular traffic.
2. In order to provide a reasonable space for vehicular movement and
underground utilities, additional right-of-way width should be
established.
3. Washington State Highway Commission standards for pavement and right-
of-way widths have been adopted by the City and should be used as a
goal in establishing the width of this street.
4. The proposal would enable the better coordination of plans which
comprise the Comprehensive Plan for the advantageous development
of Edmonds.
5. The proposal would assist in the regulation of future buildings
by establishing right-of-way lines from which can be measured the
necessary front yards.
