The previous project slated for the property called for mixed use retail, commercial and housing. That plan never came to fruition and the property ended up in foreclosure. Taylor Development purchased the property out of foreclosure and told the city that mixed used would not work and have now presented a plan for a strictly residential development. As a condition of being able to build the townhomes, Taylor has offered to…
**Contribute $69,000.00 for the Parks Department to extend a public trail on City of Everett park property along the shoreline of Silver Lake at Green Lantern Park across the street from the development.
**Allow for the public to use a portion of the development site for a view point overlooking Silver Lake.
**Provide a publicly accessible pedestrian trail connecting from 110th street to the north to 19th Avenue SE on the south. The trail would be next to an enhanced stream and wetland buffer along the east side of the property.
