19.33.020 Street designations.
The designations established herein serve as a basis for application of development standards in the land use code. They are not to be confused with the functional street classification system used by the city, state and federal government for transportation planning.
A. Street Type Designations Map. Streets within Everett may have one of four street types designated: transit oriented development street (TOD), pedestrian street, connector street and residential mixed-use corridor. All other streets are considered undesignated. These street types function as a design and use overlay. For example, some uses may be prohibited outright along TOD or pedestrian streets, or the use may be prohibited on the ground floor of a building. Sidewalk, window transparency and other design standards may also be different based on the street designation. Use restrictions by street type are included in Chapter 19.05 EMC. Please refer to Chapter 19.12 EMC for additional development standards for these street types.
B. Corner Lots. For corner lots with more than one street type designation, the most restrictive street type designation applies to that portion of the lot measured fifty feet in depth from the lot line adjoining the designation. See Figure 33-1 for how to apply this requirement.
C. How development standards are applied to specific properties based on street designations. When a lot or lots have frontage on a public street with one of the street designations shown on Map 33-1, certain developments standards will be different than if the property fronted on a street without a street designation. The following standards are affected by street designations, as shown in Table 33-1:
2. Structured parking (EMC 19.12.110);
3. Weather protection (EMC 19.12.120);
5. Public sidewalk requirements (EMC 19.33.030);
6. Heights for principal and accessory buildings (EMC 19.22.020).
